1.The 2.as 3.fluently 4.has changed 5.spoken 6.was based 7.than 8.who/that 9.other 10.its 【解析】 试题分析:本文属于说明文,主要介绍了英语的发展史以及影响英语发展的两个人:莎士比亚和韦伯斯特。 1.The 考查定冠词。在形容词或副词最高级前面要使用定冠词the表示特指。句意:现在讲英语最多的人应该在中国。 2.】as 考查介词。本句中介词as意为“作为...”;很多这个人把英语作为他们的外语来讲。 3.fluently 考查副词。在英语中,形容词通常在句中做定语和表语,副词通常做状语。本句中使用副词fluently修饰动词都一样speak English。 4.has changed 考查时态。根据本句时间状语over time随着时间的流逝,该短语经常和现在完成时连用。句意:随着时间的流逝,英语已经改变了很多。 5.spoken 考查分词做定语。本句中动词speak与Old English构成被动关系,所以使用过去分词短语spoken at that time在句中作后置定语。 6.was based 考查固定搭配。形容词短语be based on....以...为基础;句意:因为英语是以德语为基础的,所以那时被讲的古英语听起来就像是德语。 7.than 考查介词。介词than通常和比较级连用。句意:现代英语听起来更像法语,而不是德语。本句涉及德语和法语的比较,所以使用介词than。 8.who/that 考查定语从句。本题定语从句的先行词是the person,关系代词who/that指代先行词并在句中做主语。 9.other 考查固定搭配。两者中的一个使用one表示,两者中的另外一个使用“the other”表示。 10.its 考查代词。本句中its指代American English,这是一个单数名词,所以使用its指代它。他写了一本字典最终给了美国英语自己的身份。 【名师点睛】 本文11. other的用法,该短语表示“两者中的另一个”,源于other的5个词或词组another; the other; others; the others; other意义十分接近,因而在使用时极易造成混淆。现将其用法归纳如下: 1. other作形容词,通常用在单数或复数名词的前面,意为“别的;其他的;另外的”。 例如:I'll come again some other day. 我改日再来。 2. the other表示已知的两个(或两部分)人或事物中,特指的“另一个”或“另一些”,其后可跟单数或复数名词。 例如: I have two brothers. One is a doctor, the other is a teacher. 我有两个兄弟。一位是医生,另一位是教师。 3. others(=other+复数名词) 泛指“部分”含义,用于已知的一些人或物中,除去某些后余下的人或物中的一部分。例如: The students of Class Four are cleaning the classroom. Some are carrying water, others are sweeping the floor. 四班的学生们在打扫教室。一些人在打水,另一些人在扫地。 4. the others(=the other+复数名词)指一定范围内除去一个或一部分后,“余下的人或物的全部”。 例如: This composition is better than the others. 这篇作文比其他那些都好。 5. another泛指不定数中(三者或三者以上)的“另一个”。another前面不能用定冠词the,它作为限定词(定语)通常与单数名词连用,但是它后面可以跟few或基数词的复数名词。例如: This glass is broken, get me another please. 这只玻璃杯坏了,请给我再拿一个。 I'll stay here in another few days. 我要在这儿再呆几天。 注意:other和another都可以用来修饰数词,表示“另外的;附加的”,但是结构不同。other的位置是“数词+other+复数名词”,相当于more的用法;而another则是“another+数词+复数名词”。 例如:今天下午我又写了两封信。 I wrote another two letters this afternoon. =I wrote two other letters this afternoon. =I wrote two more letters this afternoon. 考点:考查说明文阅读

Disneyland calls itself the happiest place in the world. In order to keep visitors happy in its locations across the globe, every theme park in the world is changed slightly to satisfy local cultures and tastes.

Opened in 1983 and larger than the original California Disneyland, Tokyo Disneyland is the third most visited of any theme park in the world after the two Disney parks in the US. Like Walt Disney World in Florida, Cinderella’s Castle is located at the centre of the park.

But like karaoke, which originated in Japan and is a country-wide obsession (痴迷), Disneyland gives the often-reserved (矜持) Japanese people a place to show their noisy side. In Tokyo Disneyland, even adult visitors will sing, clap and dance along to the internationally themed live shows, which is a rare sight in the US.

After excitedly entering Disneyland Paris, which opened in 1992, visitors can see an arcade  that features a small copy of the Statue of Liberty a gift from France to American in 1886, making it a perfect introduction to this Europe’s only Disneyland theme park.

Unfortunately, the French stereotype of a smoking wine drinker is supported in Disneyland Paris. Many visitors complain (抱怨) that although the theme park is equipped with special smoking areas, most smokers seem to puff away (吹气) in all the open areas, including in queues for rides. Besides this, it is also the only Disneyland in the world where you can enjoy an alcoholic drink with your meal; a French meal without a glass of wine would make for the unhappiest place in the world.

1.What can we learn from the second and the third paragraph?

A. Tokyo Disneyland is the third largest theme park in the world.

B. Tokyo Disneyland is meant only for adult people.

C. There is no Cinderella’s Castle in Tokyo Disneyland.

D. Tokyo Disneyland is more visited than Disneyland Paris.

2.What are most visitors unhappy about when in Disneyland Paris?

A. No live shows there.

B. No smoking areas in the park.

C. Much smoking smell in the air.

D. Having to line up for a long time.

3.What can we infer from the underlined sentence?

A. Drinking alcohol is not allowed in other Disneyland in the world except Disneyland Paris.

B. If you want to be happy, go to Disneyland Paris and enjoy a glass of wine there.

C. The alcoholic drink is forbidden in Disneyland Paris.

D. Disneyland Paris is the unhappiest place in the world.

4.What is the main idea of the text?

A. The reason for building Disneyland across the globe

B. The introduction to Disneyland theme parks in Japan and the US

C. The difference between Disneyland Paris and Tokyo Disneyland

D. The simple analysis of Disneyland’s popularity in some parts of the world

Children whose minds wander might have sharper brains, a research suggests.

A study has found that people who appear to be often distracted (走神) have more “working memory”, giving them the ability to hold a lot of information in their heads and control it cleverly.

Children at school need this type of memory on a daily basis for a variety of tasks, such as following teachers’ instructions or remembering dictated (听写的) sentences. During the study, volunteers were asked to perform one simple task during which researchers kept asking if their minds were wandering. At the end, volunteers measured their working memory capacity (容量) by their ability to remember a series of letters mixed with simple maths questions.

Daniel Levinson, a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States, said that those with higher working memory capacity reported “more mind wandering during these simple tasks”, but their performance did not suffer.

The results, published online in the journal Psychological Science, appear to confirm former research that found working memory allows humans to deal with multiple thoughts at the same time.

Dr Jonathan Smallwood, of the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Science in Leipzig, Germany, said, “What this study seems to suggest is that, when surroundings for the task aren’t very difficult, people with additional working memory capacity use them effectively to think about other things besides what they’re doing.”

Working memory capacity is also associated with general measures of intelligence, such as reading comprehension and IQ scores. Dr Smallwood added: “Our results suggest the sorts of planning that people do quite often in daily lifewhen they are on the bus, when they are cycling to work, when they are in the showerare probably supported by working memory.”

1.During the study, the researchers asked the volunteers to _______.

A. solve some difficult maths problems

B. retell some dictated sentences

C. follow the teacher’s instructions

D. carry out one simple task

2.The underlined word “suffer” in the fourth paragraph probably means _______.

A. become worse    B. settle down

C. experience pain   D. run out

3.According to the study, working memory _______.

A. prevents people from remembering dictated sentences

B. causes people’s minds to wander more easily

C. allows people to consider more things at the same time

D. leads to people’s worse performance during work

4.What’s the text mainly about?

A. How the working memory works in the daily life.

B. Wandering minds might have brighter brains.

C. Why people’s minds wander while working.

D. Working ability can be improved by wandering minds.
