That means while you’re 4 (study), play the radio as background sound. As he says, “I keep the radio on all day while I’m working. During the day, something will catch 5 (I) attention. Maybe it’s an advertisement (广告) or it’s 6 song I like. I’ll stop and listen and try to understand it. I’m usually curious 7 what’s going on in it.” Olly Richards speaks eight languages. One of his 8 (tip) is the “No English For 1 Hour Rule.” It means for 60 minutes he can’t speak his native (本土) language (English) but must speak the foreign language. In this way, it will be much 9 (easy) for language learners to think in another language. Another tip from him is to plan your conversation 10 (careful).

Because 3. began 4. studying 5. my 6. a 7. about 8. tips 9. easier 10. carefully 【导语】本文介绍了多语言学习者语言学习方法，包括听力训练、“1小时禁用母语”规则等。 1. 句意：那么，为什么不向他们学习一些方法呢？“why not+动词原形”是固定结构，意为“为什么不做某事”，故填learn。 2. 句意：因为如果你有良好的听力理解能力，它会为其他技能的发展打开大门。前文“Why?”是提问原因，此处需用Because回答，句首首字母大写，故填Because。 3. 句意：Luca在11岁时开始学习法语。根据“at the age of 11”可知，此处描述过去的动作，用一般过去时，begin的过去式是began，故填began。 4. 句意：那意味着当你学习的时候，把收音机当作背景声音播放。本句为while引导的时间状语从句，因从句有you’re，故空处需现在分词构成现在进行时，故填studying。 5. 句意：白天，有些东西会引起我的注意。此处修饰名词attention，用形容词性物主代词my，故填my。 6. 句意：也许是一则广告，或者是一首我喜欢的歌。song是可数名词单数，此处表泛指，且song以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a，故填a。 7. 句意：我通常很好奇里面发生了什么。“be curious about”是固定搭配，意为“对……好奇”，故填about。 8. 句意：他的技巧之一是 “1小时禁用英语规则”。“one of+可数名词复数”表示“……之一”，tip的复数是tips，故填tips。 9. 句意：通过这种方式，语言学习者用另一种语言思考会容易得多。much修饰比较级，easy的比较级是easier，故填easier。 10. 句意：他的另一个技巧是仔细规划你的对话。此处修饰动词plan，用副词carefully，故填carefully。 Passage 10 阅读下面短文，根据语境，在每个空格内填入恰当的词，或填入括号内所给单词的适当形式 (不超过两个词)，要求所填的词意义准确、形式正确，使短文意思完整、行文连贯。 Li Ming used to be afraid of speaking English in public.

Some people learn by seeing or hearing. For those who learn by seeing, they can understand better once they see a picture, a table, or a real object.

For those who prefer to learn on 7 (they) own, they won’t feel comfortable unless they study by 8 (they) in a quiet room.

Most people live under the stereotype (刻板印象) that they lose 3 (they) learning abilities with age. However, if 4 (face) with a challenge when there is no other way except to learn the new foreign language, adult people can show great results. Before 5 (decide) how to learn a new language, the first thing is to decide in which situation the language is to be used. If the target is, for example, 6 (travel) or find new business at some international events, a course focusing 7 speaking practice is recommended. The basic vocabulary and conversational structures (结构), studied and practised heavily during a short period of time, may lead to the needed result, which might be the ability to communicate on the streets or support 8 small business talk. Usually, the two or three months of study are enough to start communicating. However, if brought back shortly to the usual environment, the person might lose the majority of knowledge if there would not be any supporting practice afterwards. Unfortunately, without practical usage 9 further development, the language abilities may go away as easily as they came. The language cannot 10 (learn) once and forever. 【答案】 1. internationally 2. countries 3. their 4. faced 5. deciding 6. to travel 7. on 8. a 9. and 10. be learned/be learnt 【导语】本文讲述学习语言的诸多好处，纠正年龄影响学习能力的刻板印象，并说明不同目标下的语言学习方法及持续使用的重要性。 1. 句意：学习语言有很多优势，比如在国外旅行时感到自信，结交国际朋友，能够阅读原版书籍，还有更多，比如在其他国家学习和工作。空格处修饰动名词making，需用副词internationally作状语。 2. 句意：学习语言有很多优势，在国外旅行时感到自信，结交国际朋友，能够阅读原版书籍，还有更多，比如在其他国家学习和工作。other后接可数名词复数countries。 3. 句意：大多数人都有这样的刻板印象，即他们的学习能力会随着年龄增长而下降。空格后有名词learning abilities，需用形容词性物主代词their修饰。 4. 句意：然而，当除了学习新外语别无选择时，如果面临挑战，成年人可以表现出很好的结果。此处是 if 引导的条件状语从句的省略结构，完整形式为if they are faced with...，be faced with是固定搭配，意为 “面临”，省略主语和be动词后用过去分词faced。 5. 句意：在决定如何学习一门新语言之前，首先要决定该语言将在什么情况下使用。介词before后接动名词deciding。 6. 句意：例如，如果目标是旅行或在一些国际活动中寻找新业务，推荐一门专注于口语练习的课程。句中is是系动词，其后接表语。or连接两个并列的表语，后面是find（动词原形，前省略了to，在列举两个不定式时，第二个不定式可以省略to），为了保持结构一致，前面也应使用不定式to travel 作表语，表示目标是 “去旅行” 或 “寻找商机”。 7. 句意：例如，如果目标是旅行或在一些国际活动中寻找新业务，推荐一门专注于口语练习的课程。固定搭配focus on表示“专注于”。 8. 句意：在短时间内大量学习和练习的基础词汇和会话结构，可能会带来所需的结果，即能够在街上交流或支持小型商务谈话。根据语境，这种对话是指一次简短的商务交谈，或者泛指这种对话能力。英语中“a”加在“small business talk”前面，把“talk”当作可数名词，表示“一次对话”。 原文前面并未特指，且small以辅音音素开头，应用不定冠词a。 9. 句意：不幸的是，如果没有实际使用和进一步发展，语言能力可能会像它们出现时一样轻易消失。practical usage和further development为并列关系，用连词and连接。 10. 句意：语言不可能一劳永逸地被学会。主语The language与learn是被动关系，情态动词cannot后接be+过去分词，故填be learned/be learnt。 17 / 17乐思英语 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $考前特训 期中考 语法填空 仿真模拟 考前特训（福建专用） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 特 训 范 围 Unit 7 Be a Better Learner!
