【解析】
试题分析:这篇短文讲述的是
1.考查动词及语境的理解。句意:你们中很多人都在学英语,你可能不知道它为什么这么难学。本题的四个选项中都是动词learn 的形式,意思是学习。这个句子使用的句型是it is +形容词+ to do sth.,意为:做某事是……的。在这个句型中应该用动词不定式的形式。故选B。
2.考查连词及语境的理解。句意:如果你了解一些关于这个语言和它反映的文化的信息的话,它其实并不是太难。but 但是,表示转折的关系;and 和,表示连接;if 如果,引导条件状语从句;unless除非,如果不,引导条件状语从句,和if 的意思正好相反。根据这句话的意思可知,如果了解了语言和它的文化,那么学习语言就不是那么难了,所以这里表示的是条件,故选C。
3.考查名词及语境的理解。句意:如果你了解一些关于这个语言和它反映的文化的信息的话,它其实并不是太难。news 新闻,消息;fact 事实;truth 真相;information信息。根据这句话的意思可知,这里应该表示的是关于语言的信息,故选D。
4.考查副词及语境的理解。句意:或许关于英语你需要知道的第一件事情就是它是由很多其他的语言构成的。perhaps 或许,大概;but 但是,表示转折;soon 很快;yet还,仍然。根据句意可知这里表示的是一个猜测,故用perhaps。
5.考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:或许关于英语你需要知道的第一件事情就是它是由很多其他的语言构成的,例如法语、德语、拉丁语和央格鲁撒克逊语。other 其他的,是一个形容词,后面修饰名词;another 另一个,表示不定数目中的另一个;the other 表示两者中的另一个;others是一个代词,其他的人或物。根据句意可知,这里是说英语是由很多其他的语言构成的,故应该用形容词other。
6.考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:除此之外,在英语中还有一些西班牙语的单词,和一些美洲印第安语中的单词和名字。much 很多,修饰不可数名词,这里的words 是可数名词;B、C 两个选项中的短语不成立,应该是a lot of 或lots of。故选D,many 许多,修饰可数名词。
7.考查名词及语境的理解。句意:甚至有一些汉语和日语单词也可以在英语中找到。根据上文可知,这里是在说英语中有一些其他语言中的单词,故应该选A words 单词。culture 文化;language语言; letters字母。这三项均不符合文意。
8.考查介词及语境的理解。句意:这种从别的语言中借词是人们学习英语感到困难的主要原因之一。原文中的borrow 意思是借,跟它搭配的借词是from,意为:从……借。for 为了,因为;to 到……;out 在……外面。根据句意可知选C。
9.考查代词及语境的理解。句意:这种从别的语言中借词是人们学习英语感到困难的主要原因之一。one of + 名词复数,表示……之一。这里说的是人们学习英语时感到困难的一个原因就是英语中有很多的外来词。that 那个;something 某事;this这个。根据句意可知选C。
10.考查连词及语境的理解。句意:这种从别的语言中借词是人们在学习英语时感到困难的主要原因之一。until 直到…时候;before 在……之前;after 在……之后;while 当……时候。根据这句话的意思可知应选D。
考点:教育类短文。
