Question

Many Chinese students who have learnt English for more than ten years are still unable to speak English very well when they meet a foreigner. They seem to have mastered the basic language structure(结构), but a conversation in English will make them feel uneasy. They are afraid that other people might find out their mistakes.

    It's uncommon that many students who are bad speakers of English can write English perfectly. This proves that they are unable to organize their idea in English. The center of the problem is that they lack practice and confidence ( 自信).

    Why should you be afraid? Do you fear those foreigners with whom you are speaking? Don't be shy, they will not laugh at you just for a little mistake you make. The best way to get rid of trouble is to learn to speak by speaking more. I am sure that constant practice will help you succeed.                    

1.What's the best topic for the passage?

A. How to Speak to Foreigners

B. How to Study English Well

C. How to Organize the Idea in English

2. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

Answer 1

【答案】

 

1.D

2.C

【解析】

试题分析：本文叙述了许多学了十多年英语的中国学生在见到外国人时英语讲得仍然不好。他们已经掌握了基本的语言结构，但英语对话使他们不自在。他们英语不好是因为他们缺乏锻炼和自信。摆脱这种困境最好的方法是通过更多地讲英语来练习口语。不断的练习会帮你成功。

1.标题归纳题。根据文章的介绍和最后一句“I am sure that constant practice will help you succeed.”可知，文章最好的标题是“一直坚持讲英语”。故选D。

2.推理判断题。根据第二段“They seem to have mastered the basic language structure(结构), but a conversation in English will make them feel uneasy.”他们虽然掌握了基本的语言结构但是英语对话不好。可知英语作文写得好口语不一定好，因为如果缺乏自信和对话练习，他们即使写得好，也不一定能讲得好。故选C。
