习题讲评(一)　主题阅读训练 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2025·日照模拟)Foreign visitors to the UK might be disappointed when they learn that not everyone there speaks like Harry Potter and his friends.Usually, there's an assumption by many non­Brits that everyone in Britain speaks with what's known as a Received Pronunciation (RP，标准发音) accent, also called “the Queen's English”．However, while many people do talk this way, most Britons speak in their own regional accents. Scouse, Glaswegian and the Black Country — from Liverpool, Glasgow and the West Midlands — are just three of the countless non­RP accents that British people speak with.There are even differences in accents between towns or cities just 30 kilometers apart.What is even more disappointing is that not speaking in a RP accent may mean a British person is judged and even treated differently in their everyday life. In a 2015 study by the University of New South Wales, videos of people reading a passage in three different UK accents were shown to a second group of people.The group then rated how intelligent they thought the readers sounded.The lowest­rated accent was the Brummie accent, native to people from Birmingham, a city whose accent is considered the working class. However, there is no need to be disappointed though you are not speaking in a RP accent.In fact, doing the opposite may even give you advantages. Kong Seong­jae, 25, is an Internet celebrity from Seoul.After studying in the UK, he picked up several regional accents.He's now famous for his online videos, where he shows off the various accents he's learned.“British people usually get really excited when I use some of their local dialect words, and they become much friendlier.I think it makes a bit of bond between local people and foreigners to speak in their local accent，” he said. So if you're working on perfecting your British accent, try to speak like someone from Liverpool, Glasgow or Birmingham.You may not sound like Harry Potter, but you are likely to make more friends. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了英国口音的多样性，指出并非所有英国人都说标准发音RP，且不同地区的口音存在差异。 1．What can we infer from paragraph 1? A．Non­Brits usually hold that all Britons speak in a RP accent. B．Only “the Queen's English” is accepted in the UK.　 C．Foreign visitors are disappointed at their own spoken English. D．Any Received Pronunciation around the world is also called “the Queen's English”． 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Usually, there's an assumption ...called ‘the Queen's English’．”可知，非英国人通常认为，所有的英国人都有标准口音。 2．What do people think of the Brummie accent? A．It is favored by foreign visitors to the UK. B．It is closest to the RP accent. C．It is smart and easy to understand. D．It is spoken by people of the working class. 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The lowest­rated accent ...considered the working class.”可知，人们认为工人阶级的人说伯明翰口音。 3．What does the underlined phrase “doing the opposite” in paragraph 4 refer to? A．Speaking in a RP accent. B．Speaking in regional accents. C．Speaking the Brummie accent. D．Speaking like Harry Potter. 解析：选B　词义猜测题。根据画线词前面的句子“However, there is no need to be disappointed though you are not speaking in a RP accent.”可知，然而，尽管你发音不标准，也没有必要失望。由此推断出此处表达的是“事实上，说话带有地方口音甚至可能会给你优势。B项“Speaking in regional accents.”与原文表达一致。 4．What is the text mainly about? A．A study about the most intelligent accent in Britain. B．A comparison between different British accents. C．How much British people value the RP accent. D．The impact of regional accents on people's lives. 解析：选D　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文通过介绍英国标准音之外的一些方言使用情况，说明了英国的口音多样性以及地方口音对人们生活的影响。 B (2025·雅安模拟)When you ask people to judge others by their speech, a trend emerges: Listeners dislike disfluency.Slow talkers producing loads of ums and pauses are generally considered as less charming.But science tells us there may be even more to disfluency. Disfluencies do not occur in arbitrary positions in sentences.Ums typically occur right before more difficult or low­frequency words.Imagine you're having dinner with a friend at a restaurant, and there're three items on the table: a knife, a glass, and a wine decanter (醒酒器)．Your friend turns to you and says, “Could you hand me the ...um ...” What would you assume your friend wants? Since it's unlikely that they will hesitate before such common words as knife, and glass, chances are you'll pick up the decanter and ask, “You mean this？” This is exactly what we demonstrated through controlled eye­tracking studies in our lab.Apparently, listeners hear the um and predict that an uncommon word is most likely to follow.Such predictions, though, reflect more than just simple association between disfluencies and difficult words; listeners are actively considering from the speaker's point of view.For example, when hearing a non­native speaker say the same sentence but with a thick foreign accent, listeners don't show a preference for looking at low­frequency objects.This is probably because listeners assume non­native speakers may have as much trouble coming up with the English word for a common object, like a knife, as for unusual ones and can't guess their intention. In another experiment, listeners were presented with an atypical speaker who produced disfluencies before simple words and never before difficult words.Initially, participants displayed the natural predictive strategy: looking at uncommon objects.However, as more time went by, they gained experience with this atypical distribution of disfluencies.And listeners started to demonstrate the contrary predictive behavior: They tended to look at simple objects when hearing the speaker say um. These findings represent further evidence that the human brain is a prediction machine: We continuously try to predict what will happen next, even though not all disfluencies are created equal. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了听众如何通过说话者的不流畅性如“呃”停顿来预测接下来可能说出的词汇。 5．What does the underlined word “arbitrary” mean in paragraph 2? A．Random.　　　　　 B．Leading. C．Obvious. D．Consistent. 解析：选A　词义猜测题。根据第二段画线词后“Ums typically occur right before”可知，画线词所在句子意思是说话中的不流畅并非随机出现在句子中，故画线词arbitrary与A项“随机的”意义相近。 6．What can be inferred from non­native speakers' disfluencies? A．Non­native speakers' accent won't influence listeners' predictions. B．Non­native speakers are good at coming up with unusual English words. C．Non­native speakers' intention in communication is easy to understand. D．Non­native speakers' disfluencies are a little less predictive. 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“This is probably because ...can't guess their intention.”可知，非母语者的不流畅性稍微不那么具有预测性。 7．What does the experiment in paragraph 4 show? A．Simple things are difficult in some cases. B．Listeners can adjust predictions accordingly. C．Distribution of disfluencies is unchangeable. D．Disfluencies in communication can be avoided. 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第四段可知，随着听众适应了这种异常的不流畅分布，听众可以相应地调整预测。 8．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Pauses Coexist with Prediction B．Active Listeners Simplify Talks C．Disfluency Says More Than You Think D．Brains Are Powerful Prediction Machines 解析：选C　标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了听众如何通过说话者的不流畅性 (如“呃”停顿) 来预测接下来可能说出的词汇，说明了说话不流畅比我们以为的传达了更多信息。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 (2025·南宁模拟)Before children can learn to read, they need to have a good understanding of basic words and what they mean. 9 ， there are very easy ways that you can build a preschooler's vocabulary. Visiting the library If you are looking for a great place to start building your preschooler's vocabulary and early reading skills, look no further than your local library.Research shows a strong correlation between library use and literacy­building skills in young children. 10 ， ask your librarian for help. Using descriptive words When it comes to increasing your child's vocabulary, more is better.The more words your child hears, the more he or she will learn.For example, when describing a fabric pattern, try using words such as unusual, relaxing, or creative.These words may be beyond a kid's understanding right now. 11 . Making labels If you want your preschoolers to learn more words, then make it easy. 12 .Using a label maker to name commonly used items so they can learn to recognize what the word looks like.For example, if her toys are separated into different boxes of like items, label them, such as blocks, dolls, cars, books, etc. 13 Besides being a wonderful way to spend quality time with your preschooler, reading aloud is a great way to expose your preschooler to new words.Choose books that are of interest to your preschooler but that use words that are slightly above their understanding.Together you can work through what they mean, by using context — the other words on the page and any pictures that might be on the page as well. A．Reading aloud together B．Spending time together C．While that may sound a bit difficult D．In addition to saying them often, show them too E．If you aren't sure what to do when you get there F．But by using them in the proper context, you'll make them understandable G．The more parents help children overcome challenges, the better they'll be for kindergarten 语篇解读：本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了建立学龄前儿童词汇量的一些简单适用的方法。 9．选C　上文提到孩子们在学习阅读之前需要理解基本单词，下文提到有一些非常简单的方法可以帮助你建立一个学龄前儿童的词汇量，C项(虽然这听起来有点困难)符合语境，与下文形成转折关系。 10．选E　根据下文“ask your librarian for help”可知，空处是下文的条件，即在图书馆遇到的问题，E项(如果你不确定当你到达那里时要做什么)符合语境，此句中的there指代图书馆。 11．选F　上文说明在描述织物图案时，一些单词会超出孩子们的理解范围，F项(但是通过在适当的语境中使用它们，你就可以让它们变得容易理解)与前文形成转折，强调利用语境理解的重要性，同样表示利用描述性单词的恰当方法，符合语境。 12．选D　上文提到要想让儿童学习更多的单词，那就让单词简单易懂，下文提到利用标签机给物品命名，将单词和它的样子联系起来，D项(除了经常说，也要展示给他们看)承上启下，引出下文给孩子展示物品。 13．选A　根据本空的位置可知，本空考查段落主旨句。下文提到要让学龄前儿童大声朗读这些单词，A项(一起朗读)符合本段主旨。 习题讲评(二)　语用综合训练 Ⅰ.语法填空 (2025·普洱模拟)We use both words and body language to express 1 (we) thoughts and opinions in interactions with other people.Just like spoken language, body language 2 (vary) from culture to culture.For example, making eye contact — looking into someone's eyes — in some countries is a way 3 (display) interest.In other countries, eye contact is not always approved 4 .For example, in many Middle Eastern countries, men and women are not 5 (social) permitted to make eye contact.In Japan, it may demonstrate respect to look down when talking to 6 old.The gesture for “OK” has different 7 (meaning) in different cultures.In Japan, someone 8 witnesses another person employing the gesture might think it means money.However, you should avoid making this gesture in Brazil and Germany.Even the gestures we use for “yes” and “no” differ around the world.In many countries, 9 (shake) one's head means “no”， and nodding means “yes”．By 10 (compare), in Bulgaria and southern Albania, the gestures have the opposite meaning. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章指出同一肢体语言在不同的国家或文化背景下可能有不同的意义，我们要学会正确地使用肢体语言。 1．our　考查代词。修饰名词词组thoughts and opinions，应用形容词性物主代词our作定语。 2．varies　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。vary(呈现差异)是句中谓语动词，与主语body language之间是主动关系，描述客观事实应使用一般现在时态，又因主语表示单数意义，谓语动词应使用单数形式。 3．to display　考查非谓语动词。名词way在此意为“方式”，其后常用不定式作后置定语。a way to display interest意为“一种表达兴趣的方式”。 4．of　考查介词。approve of是固定短语，表示“赞成，认可”，句中使用了被动语态。 5．socially　考查副词。修饰动词permitted，应用副词socially作状语，意为“在社会上；在社交方面”。 6．the　考查冠词。“定冠词the＋形容词”是固定结构，用于特指某一类人或物。句中the old意为“老人”，作宾语。 7．meanings　考查名词复数。可数名词meaning作宾语，意为“意思，意义”，有形容词different(不同的)修饰，应用复数形式。 8．who/that　考查定语从句。此处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词someone，指人，关系词在定语从句中作主语，应用关系代词who或that引导。 9．shaking　考查非谓语动词。固定短语shake one's head作主语，shake应用动名词形式shaking。 10．comparison　考查名词。介词后应用名词作宾语。by comparison意为“相比之下；比较起来”。 Ⅱ.应用文写作 假定你是李华，你校这学期进行了一系列的英语讲座，上周邀请外教Jim做了关于英语词汇学习的讲座，请你给他写一封邮件，内容包括： 1．表达感谢并说明原因； 2．建议下周讲解的内容。 注意：1.写作词数应为80左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Dear Jim， 　 　 　 　 　 　 Yours， Li Hua 参考范文： Dear Jim， Thank you very much indeed for the wonderful lecture you gave on English vocabulary learning.I've learnt really a lot from the lecture, because you helped me overcome the bottleneck of vocabulary memorization.However, I am still puzzled by some difficulties in reading, especially when it comes to strange words.For example, I find it hard to guess the unfamiliar words when reading.Would you please give me some advice? Would you give a speech about the use of different words in different contexts next week? I would be really grateful if you could help me out. Yours， Li Hua 7 / 7 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
