I arrived at London at last.The railway station was big,black and dark.I didn't know the way to my hotel,but I asked a porter.I not only spoke English very carefully,but very clear as well.The porter,however,could not understand me.I repeated my question several time and at last he understood.He answered me,but he spoke neither slowly nor clearly."I'm foreigner,"I said.Then he spoke slowly,but I could not understand him.My teacher never spoke English like this!The porter and I looked at each other and smile.Then he said anything and I understood it."You will be soon learn English!"he said,I wonder.In England,each person speak a different language,the English understand each other,but I don't understand them.
分析 本文讲述了作者在伦敦遇到的语言交流问题,虽然作者自认为英语说得很清楚,但是当地人仍然听不懂作者的话,对作者来讲也同样存在这样的问题,因为英语老师课堂上讲的英语与当地人的英语也有差别.
解答 I arrived at London at last.The railway station was big,black and dark.I didn't know the way to my hotel,but I asked a porter.I not only spoke English very carefully,but very clear as well.The porter,however,could not understand me.I repeated my question several time and at last he understood.He answered me,but he spoke neither slowly nor clearly."I'm∧foreigner,"I said.Then he spoke slowly,but I could not understand him.My teacher never spoke English like this!The porter and I looked at each other and smile.Then he said anything and I understood it."You will be soon learn English!"he said,I wonder.In England,each person speaka different language,the English understand each other,but I don't understand them.
详解:
1.at改为in;考查介词,arrive是不及物动词,后面跟宾语时要加介词in或at,at后面接小地点,in后面接大地点,如城市或地区等,故此处用in.
2.but改为so;考查连词,前面I didn't know the way to my hotel是说明原因,故后面用so引导一个结果.
3.clear改为clearly;考查副词,此处要修饰的是前面的动词spoke,故用副词clearly作状语.
4.time改为times;考查名词,time此处意为"次数",是可数名词,前面有several修饰,故用复数形式.
5.foreigner前面加a;考查冠词,foreigner是可数名词,此处要在前面加不定冠词a泛指"一个".
6.this改为that;考查指示代词,分析句意为"我的老师从来不那样说英语",此处用that指代上文提到的The porter说英语的方式.
7.smile改为smiled;考查动词是时态,此处smile和前面的looked是并列谓语,动作发生在过去,要用一般过去时.
8.anything改为something;考查不定代词,结合语境分析句意为"然后他说了些话…",故用肯定形式something,anything意为"任何东西",主要用于疑问句、否定句或条件从句中代替somethingsomething.
9.去掉be;考查动词,分析句子成分可知本句的谓语为will learn,be动词事故多余成分,故去掉.
10.speak改为speaks;考查主谓一致,each person作主语,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式.
点评 整体理解短文,充分运用所学的基础知识,包括一些实词和虚词的用法,固定短语搭配,习惯性用法,结合上下文整体关系,找出错误并加以修正.
One of the most important rules is never to compromise on the things you ask for or desire or it will badly affect your life and peace of mind.Keep in mind your basic expectations of a dream job.They might be something about money or you might find they have something to do with time off.Whatever they are,make sure that you do not accept a job without them.Your requirements might not be easy to meet,but you have the right to try and achieve them.
What's more,don't shy away from odd(临时的)jobs that might actually take you to the place that you want to be in.Sometimes,finding the right job is a matter of luck and chance after you have been searching and putting in a lot of efforts.And if something unexpected happens,remember that taking the chance is of great importance and is something you might want to seriously consider.As long as you keep your goals in mind,you are going to be doing much better than other people during the job search.
If you are looking for the right job,another thing that you can do to make sure that you get the right kind of employment is to market yourself.When you do nothing to push yourself forward,you will be the one suffering for it.If required,give enough encouragement to yourself and try to confidently look at all that you have.Make sure that you can show your skills and abilities.If the jobs that you have set your sights on are challenging,set goals for yourself and work hard at them.The more efforts you put in marketing yourself,the more your chances of obtaining the job you like there will be.
Remember that when you are working on a job search,you should not short-change yourself.This is because you will only harm yourself by setting low goals.
