题目内容
【题目】根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词,并将答案填写在答题卷标号为81-90的相应位置上。
The development of the English language took a giant step in 1607. Three small British ships c 【1】 the Atlantic Ocean. They began to call areas of their new land by words borrowed from the native people. For example, many of the great r 【2】 in the United States are taken from American Indian words. The Mississippi, the Tennessee, the Missouri are examples. This borrowing or adding of foreign words to English was a w 【3】 of expanding(扩大)the language. The names of three days of the week are good examples of this. The people from Northern Europe honored three gods with a special day each week. The gods were Odin, Thor and Freya. Odin’s-day became Wednesday in English, Thor’s-day became T 【4】 and Freya’s-day became Friday.
Experts cannot explain many English words. For h 【5】 of years, a dog was called a “hound.” The word is still u 【6】 but not as commonly as the word “dog.” English speakers just started using it. Other words whose origins(起源) are unknown i 【7】 “fun,” “bad,” and “big.”
English speakers also continue to invent n 【8】 words by linking old words together. A good example is the words “motor” and “hotel.” Many years ago s 【9】 linked them together into the word “motel.” A motel is a small hotel near a road where people travelling in cars can stay for the night.
Other words come from the f 【10】 letters of names of groups or devices. For example, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization is usually called NATO.

试题分析:这篇短文给我们讲述了英语语言的发展,尤其是词汇的扩大。英语中很多单词都来源于其他语言,而且现在还有很多新词不断的出现,让英语的词汇很丰富。很多单词专家们也不知道他们的起源,但是这些单词仍然还在使用。
【1】句意:三艘英国的小船穿过了大西洋。cross穿过,是一个动词。这个空格处所填的是该句的谓语动词,根据空后的Atlantic Ocean可知这个的词义应该是穿过。这篇短文讲述的是过去的事情,故应该用一般过去时态,这里应该填过去式crossed。
【2】句意:例如,美国的很多大河的名字都来源于美印第安人的词汇。river河流,根据下句话中Mississippi 就是一条河流的名字,所以这里应该说的是河流的名字。因为空前面有many,故这里用复数形式rivers。
【3】句意:这样从别的语言中借此增添到英语当中是一种扩大英语词汇的方法。way方式,方法,根据上文的描述可知,英语中的很多词汇都来源于其他语言,正因为这样,英语的词汇才越来越丰富。因此这是一种扩大词汇的方法。a way of doing …做某事的方法。
【4】句意:北欧的人们每周都有特殊的一天来纪念神,Odin’s Day 就变成了英语中的星期三,Thor’s-Day 变成了英语中的周四,而Freya’s-Day就变成了兴趣五。根据句意我们可以推断,在周三和周五之间的应该是周四,故应该填Thursday。
【5】句意:几百年来,狗都被称为hound。hundred 百,是一个数词,跟数词连用时不用复数,或者构成短语hundreds of,几百,修饰可数名词复数。
【6】句意: 这个词仍然在使用,但是不如dog这个词更普遍。use使用,是一个动词。根据这句话的意思可知,这里应该使用被动语态,故应填过去分词used。
【7】句意:其他很多词的起源也是不知道的,包括fun, bad, big。include包括,是一个动词。根据句意可知,这里作者给我们举了一些不知道单词的起源的例子,故这里应该用including。
【8】句意:说英语的人还在通过把旧词联系在一起的方式发明新的单词。new 新的。根据这一段的意思可知,现在英语中的词汇还在增加,人们还在发明很多新词。
【9】句意:很多年前,有人把motor和hotel两个词联系在一起组成了新词motel。someone 或者somebody都是某人的意思,表示不知道的人。
【10】句意:其他的单词来源于一个组织或机构的名字中的第一个字母。first第一个。根据下面作者举的例子NATO可知,还有一些单词的构成,是通过把名字中的第一个字母组合起来的。故应填first。
