30、lies from place to place, it takes the most direct route. But when people drive, they have to follow roads and often go farther. When people give a distance “as the crow flies”, they mean the shortest distance between the two points, not the distance you would have to travel by following roads. As D

32、on his soup to cool it down. In both cases, the man is opening his mouth, but what comes out is different. If a person says one thing and later says the opposite, we say that the person is blowing hot and cold. “Is Felicia going to try out for the soccer team this year? ” Stacy asked. “I dont know,

33、” Tricia replied. “Last week she was saying yes, but this week shes saying no.

Finally, one of them broke the ice by saying “Hey, wheres everybody from? ”Bury the hatchetIn native American culture, when two nations agreed to end their war, they buried the hatchet.

39、的意思是原谅她的错误。BA year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms, though my teacher emphasized the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience. One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talkin

49、s more on the heartwarming details of the familys daily life, according to The Playlist. Koreeda shows how the family members love and support each other. For example, the family plans a beach trip for the youngest sister. They carefully pick out swimwear for the girl. At the beach, they play happil

50、y. The girl draws a picture to help her remember their time together. This causes viewers to forget about their moral judgments. This is another feature of Koreedas filming style. He is good at presenting ordinary life. Its slow and full of small detailssometimes its even boring. But there is tensio

51、n(冲突) present as well. In Shoplifters, the surprise is that the family members dont actually have blood ties to each other, but they are still closer than a real family. They all have their own stories. In Japan and most other Asian countries, blood ties are what defines (定义) family. But Koreeda que

56、arn, and it is not easy to answer because there are too many factors to take into consideration. Firstly, in a first language the difficulties are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally, so the question of how hard a language is to learn only makes more sense when learning a secon

57、d language. A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different, so first language can affect learning a second language. The greater the differences betwee

58、n the second language and our first language, the harder it will be for most people to learn. Many people answer that Chinese is the hardest language to learn, possibly influenced by the thought of learning the Chinese writing system, and the pronunciation of Chinese does appear to be very difficult

59、 for many foreign learners. However, for Japanese speakers, who already use Chinese characters in their own language, learning writing will be less difficult than for speakers of languages using the Roman alphabet. Some people seem to learn languages easily, while others find it very difficult. Teac

60、hers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role, as well as each learners motivation for learning. If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally, they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their

61、 day to day life. Obviously, British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second hardest language is Japanese, which will probably come as no surprise to many, but the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian, which uses a similar alphabet to English but

62、 has 35 cases (forms of a nouns according to whether it is subject, object, genitive, etc). This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for everyone, but it causes British diplomatic personnel, who are generally used to learning languages, the most difficulty. However, Tabassa

63、ran, a Caucasian language, has 48 cases, so it might cause more difficulty if British diplomats had to learn it. Different cultures and individuals from those cultures will find different languages more difficult. Therefore, it is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficu

64、lt language in the world. 【语篇概述】这是一篇议论文。文章论述了世界上哪一种语言最难学。32. What can we infer from the first paragraph? A. The question of how hard a language is to learn is only applicable to first language acquisition. B. The question of how hard a language is to learn is only applicable to second language acqui

65、sition. C. The question of how hard a language is to learn is applicable to both first and second language acquisition. D. There are too many languages in the world so its difficult to say which one is the most difficult to learn. 【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第一段中“People often ask which is the most . . . . consid

66、eration. ”可知世界上有太多的语言, 所以很难说哪一种语言最难学。33. Which language will a native Portuguese speaker probably find easier to learn? A. Chinese, because Portuguese use Chinese characters in their own language. B. Japanese, because it is similar to their own language. C. Spanish, because it also uses the Roman al

67、phabet. D. Anyone but Chinese, because its pronunciation is very difficult. 【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第二段中“A native speaker of Spanish, . . . similar to Spanish”及下文可知一个当地的葡萄牙人会发现西班牙语最容易学, 因为西班牙语也使用罗马字母。34. What does the underlined word “circumstances” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Particular situations or environmen

68、ts. B. The degree of education that somebody has obtained. C. Teachers encouragement. D. Professional training. 【解析】选A。词义猜测题。根据第三段中“Teachers and the circumstances in which the language. . . motivation for learning. ”可知老师和学习环境, 还有每个学习者的学习动机, 在语言学习中也起着重要作用。故加下划线的词意为“特别的境况或环境”。35. The author is most li

69、kely to agree _. A. many British diplomats learn TabassaranB. Hungarians grammatical complexity causes problems for native British speakersC. Tabassaran is the hardest language to learn in the world for native European speakersD. learning a different writing system is very easy for British speakers【

70、解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第四段中“the language that they have found to be. . . , the most difficulty”可知不是匈牙利语的书写体系而是它的语法复杂性给本地英语学习者带来麻烦。第二节(共5小题, 每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 After entering high school, you must wonder how to study well.
