Question

根据短文内容，完成下列各题（每小题2分，满分10分）

Children are amazing! They pick up language so naturally and easily. Have you ever wondered why? It’s because of the way they learn.

Children learn by simply doing what comes naturally—they listen, copy, and communicate. Let’s take a closer look at how children learn language. Perhaps we can discover a better, more “natural” way to learn English.

Listen as often as possible

When people talk to children, they often use simple words that children can understand. That’s really important to the children’s language development. In order to learn, children must be able to understand what they hear. If they don’t understand it, it’s just meaningless noise.

Listen to radio or TV programs that use English at your level. If you can’t understand every word or sentence, don’t give up. Just pay attention to what you can understand. And listen as often as you can.

Be a Copycat

Children like to copy their parents, their friends and even the TV. (the, teaches, this, how, pronounce, them, language, to). As you listen to English, repeat what you hear as much as you can.

Use English to communicate

Children don’t practice grammar rules. They use language to talk about things that interest them. This helps them learn to express themselves. They don’t worry about their small vocabulary or poor grammar. They find ways to say what they want and they do it successfully.

So look for chances to talk with people in English. If you can’t find a foreigner to talk to, talk with other English students instead. Start an English discussion group and chat about music, movies and so on. Don’t worry about making mistakes. You can learn English better by correcting mistakes.

1.

2.英汉互译题。本题是when引导的时间状语从句；在主句中还有that引导的定语从句句；talk to sb表示同某人交流；结合语境。故答案是当人们与孩子们说话时，他们经常用孩子们能够理解的简单话语。

3.连词成句题。本题中含有疑问词+to do的结构；how to pronounce the language； 怎样发出语言的读音；可知故答案为This teaches them how to pronounce the language。

5.主旨大意题。根据问题当你在学语言的时候，我们需要担心犯错误吗？这是一道主观题。故答案是此题为主观题。No ,because we can learn English better by correcting mistakes.
