2、iting “centre” as “center”.But since then,the British have become more confident in some of their own spellings.In the 2000s,the UK used an American spelling choice about 11% of the time while Americans use a British one about 10% of the time.There is also no need to worry too much about American wo

3、rds,such as “vacation”,“liquor” and “lawmaker” entering British English.There are a few examples of this kind of vocabulary change but they are mostly uncommon words and are not likely to change British English too much.The British are still using “mum” rather than “mom” and “petrol” rather than “ga

4、s”.But when we start thinking of language more in terms of style than vocabulary or spelling,a different picture appears.Some of the bigger trends in American English are moving towards a freer use of language.American sentences are on average one word shorter in 2006 than they were in 1931.American

5、s also use a lot more apostrophes (撇号) in their writing than they used to,which has the effect of turning the two words “do not” into the single “dont”.“The hand of the king” becomes the shorter “The kings hand”.However,in all these ways Brits are changing too and in the same way as Americans.Theyre

6、 just about 30 years behind the trend that Americans seem to be leading.So this raises a question,is British English actively following American English or is this something that is simply a natural trend in language use? Perhaps the British would have gone in that direction even if America had neve

26、direction of not using the u in colour and writing centre as center”可知,20世纪60年代的时候英国人开始使用一些美式拼写。2.D推理判断题。作者引用petrol的例子是为了证明前一句话中的说法“they are mostly uncommon words and are not likely to change British English too much”。3.C推理判断题。由第二段末的“American sentences are on average one word shorter in 2006 than th

27、ey were in 1931.”及第三段中的例子可知,美式英语的句子更加简单化。【篇章导读】本文是记叙文。作者教书35年后退休了,但是退休后继续给移民们上英语课,这些来自各个国家的移民成人学生们给作者留下了深刻的印象。他们虽然生活艰辛忙碌,但他们很少缺课,而且上课认真,心地质朴。4.B细节理解题。根据第二段中的第二句可知,学生中有一个男的,故A项错误;根据第三段中的第三句可知,学生们总是让老师很开心,所以C项错误;根据最后一句可知,他们很少旷课,故D项错误;根据第三段中的首句可知,他们都结婚了,有了孩子,在上班。故选B项。5.C推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知,Blanca的孩子们主动向作者挥

28、手打招呼并且作者认为他们是值得被尊重的、可爱的。故可推知,Blanca对孩子们的教育很好。6.A词义推测题。根据前面的often-exhausted mother可知,后面的妈妈因为每天工作而经常筋疲力尽地回家,应该是吃力地走在孩子们的后面。故选A项。7.C推理判断题。根据全文内容尤其是首段中的最后一句“Its been a joy!”可知,作者认为这份工作给他带来快乐,还是喜欢这份工作的。故选C项。二、【篇章导读】本文是议论文。文章论述了参加夏令营活动给孩子们带来的好处。1.D根据该段的主题Make true friends及下文中的“Every day,friendships are cr

29、eated.”可知,夏令营中有趣的活动让大家聚到一起并建立起真挚的友谊。2.A根据上文中的“Learn social skills”及“Coming to camp means joining a community where everyone must agree to work together and respect each other.”可知,夏令营可以帮助孩子们建立团队精神。3.FF项中的内容与该段主题“Grow more independent”相照应,故选F项。4.BB项中的achievement与该段的主题Experience success相照应,故选B项。5.C根据下文

30、中的“Camp is action!”可知,夏令营包括很多体育活动。三、1.Covering考查动词-ing形式做状语的用法。grasslands与cover之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,且cover所表示的动作与谓语动作同时发生,故填Covering。2.are known考查一般现在时的被动语态。由语境可知,设空处是对一般情况的描述,应用一般现在时,又因为grasslands与know之间是被动关系,故填are known。3.on / upon考查介词。depend on / upon意为“取决于”。4.which考查关系代词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句,补充说明The Great Plain

31、s,且在从句中做主语,故填which。5.To make考查不定式做状语的用法。由语境可知,当地牧场与环保小组合作是为了使他们的生意更成功,故填To make。6.environmental考查形容词做定语的用法。设空处做定语修饰groups,表示“有关环境的”,故填environmental。7.Compared考查过去分词做状语的用法。compare与these groups之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,且compare所表示的动作已完成,故填Compared。8.protection考查名词。由设空处前面的the可知,应填名词,故填protection。9.goals考查名词复数。“one of + their +可数名词复数形式”表示“他们的之一”。10.the考查定冠词。at the same time意为“同时”。
