1  girl in Britain, hopes to bring the   2  to the young people.
Daisy has   3  an online learning website to teach the language to as   4  people as possible, all over the world.
With China’s fast development in the world, Daisy thinks   5  important for people to learn the language sooner rather than later.
Daisy has been learning Putonghua   6  the age of five. Two years ago,   7  she decided to pass on what she had learned, she   8  the idea for the website, kidschineseclub.com.
She said: “People are afraid to learn Putonghua. One of the main reasons is that they think it’s an   9  language to learn, but I have had fun   10  it .And I hope what I have done is easy and fun.”
Her   11   offers a series of lessons, which are videos of Daisy teaching a group of students on topics from greetings and numbers to Chinese culture.
Daisy’s website has   12  the support of several important persons —the teenager says she has received a letter praising(贊揚(yáng)) her work from Gordon Brown,   13  is the British Prime Minister(首相).
She said: “I wrote to him and told him what I was doing and got a letter   14 . He said that what I was doing was a really good idea. I thought it was amazing. I was excited that   15  was supporting what we’re doing.”

【主旨大意】本篇短文講訴了在國(guó)外傳授漢語(yǔ)是非常困難的,然而Daisy Raffan卻把這件事變?yōu)楝F(xiàn)實(shí),且變得比較容易,她的方法主要是制作了網(wǎng)頁(yè),上面有她的講課和與學(xué)生就留的錄像,這種方式贏得了很多人甚至英國(guó)首相的贊譽(yù)。
1. B 合成形容詞18-year-old用連字符號(hào)連接,這時(shí)的名詞不加-s,且這種形容詞只做定語(yǔ)不做表語(yǔ)。
2. A 承接上文說(shuō)的學(xué)漢語(yǔ)很難,這位年輕人卻想把這門(mén)language語(yǔ)言帶給年輕人,即教會(huì)他們漢語(yǔ)。
3. C 在網(wǎng)上制作學(xué)習(xí)網(wǎng)頁(yè)用set up,其余的講不通。
4. C 修飾后面的people可數(shù)名詞用many,且在as…as的中間需要原級(jí),所以選擇答案C.
5. D 固定結(jié)構(gòu)think it adj. for sb. to do sth. “認(rèn)為做某事怎么樣”,所以選答案D.
6. C 本句子用的是完成時(shí)態(tài),所以是從5歲開(kāi)始since the age of five,容易迷惑的是固定詞組at the age of…在…歲時(shí),這里不是選答案B,而是C.
7. B 句意承接,是兩年后,在她決定傳遞她所學(xué)的知識(shí)之后,而不是之前,所以選答案B.
8. D 固定詞組come up with表示“想出”。
9. A 人們害怕學(xué)普通話的原因是,人們認(rèn)為學(xué)普通話是impossible不可能的,其余三者都意思恰恰相反。
10. C 固定用法have fun doing sth.高興做某事;做某事快樂(lè)。
11. D 承接上下文說(shuō)的都是她制作的網(wǎng)頁(yè)website,給人們提供了一系列的講課和錄像。
12. A 她的網(wǎng)頁(yè)贏得了很多人的支持,而不是made制作,given給予,或beaten打敗。
13. C 這里是非限定性的定語(yǔ)從句,修飾人在這里用who。
14. B 構(gòu)成固定用法get a letter back收到回信。
15. D 不定代詞someone的定語(yǔ)后置,且在形容詞important前用so副詞來(lái)修飾。

Is learning a foreign language ever easy? Yes. If you are five and move to another country, you will quickly pick up the language. But what about for the rest of us who are no longer five, and need to be polite when traveling for business or for pleasure? I think that answer is also yes. Language learning can be easy if you don’t want or need to learn too much.

The key to successful language learning in my mind is not to set the goal too high. It is rather like running. Even if you run twice a week, you don’t necessarily want to be able to run a marathon (馬拉松). You might just want to keep a level of fitness. I think the same can be true for language learning.

Let’s get back to the goal. If you decide to learn ten words in a foreign language before visiting the country, you know that you will be sure to do this. However, if you decide to talk to people with great fluency (流利), unless you are quite a talented person, you will probably fail and give up in half-way.

It is also far easier to start learning a foreign language than to finish. In other words, the better you are, the slower it can be to improve, because you will not be able to move further because of grammar, making sentences, learning less common words, etc. If you are only trying to learn a few foreign words and sentences, you will enjoy faster progress, have more fun, and won’t have to spend too much time.

The idea of learning only a few hundred words in a language, and then stopping, isn’t the usual way to language learning, but it can be a very meaningful and enjoyable activity.

1.In the writer’s opinion, it is easy for adults to learn English if _______.

A.they are especially talented people

B.they don’t want or need to learn too much

C.they have to spend a lot of time on it

D.they have a chance to go abroad

2.The writer believes that if you want to be good at a foreign language, you will probably _______.

A.forget your own goals

B.become a talented language learner

C.get tired of learning it

D.reach your learning goal

3.The best title of this passage would be _______.

A.Easy Language Learning                   B.Hard Language Learning

C.Fluency in a Foreign Language              D.A way of Language Learning

科目:初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2012-2013學(xué)年江蘇省實(shí)驗(yàn)學(xué)校九年級(jí)3月適應(yīng)性練習(xí)英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

A Brown University sleep researcher has some advice for people who run high schools: Don’t start classes so early in the morning. It may not be that the students who nod off at their desks are lazy. And it may not be that their parents have failed to enforce(確保) bedtime. Instead, it may be that biologically(生物學(xué)上)these sleepyhead(貪睡者)students aren’t used to the early hour.

  “Maybe these kids are being asked to rise at the wrong time for their bodies,” says Mary Carskadon, a professor looking at problem of adolescent (青春期的)sleep at Brown’s School of Medicine.

  Carskadon is trying to understand more about the effects of early school time in adolescents. And, at a more basic level, she and her team are trying to learn more about how the biological changes of adolescence affect sleep needs and patterns(方式).

  Carskadon says her work suggests that adolescents may need more sleep than they did at childhood, no less, as commonly thought.

  Sleep patterns change during adolescence, as any parent of an adolescent can prove. Most adolescents prefer to stay up later at night and sleep later in the morning. But it’s not just a matter of choice---their bodies are going through a change of sleep patterns.

  All of this makes the transfer(遷移)from middle school to high school---which may start one hour earlier in the morning----all the more difficult, Carskadon says. With their increased need for sleep and their biological clocks set on the “sleep late, rise late” pattern, adolescents are up against difficulties when they try to be up by 5 or 6 a.m. for a 7:30 a.m. first bell. A short sleep on a desktop may be their body’s way of saying. “I need a timeout.”

1.Carskadon suggests that high schools should not start classes so early in the morning because _______.

A.it is really tough for parents to enforce bedtime

B.it is biologically difficult for students to rise early

C.students work so late at night that they can’t get up early

D.students are so lazy that they don’t like to go to school early

2.The underlined phrase nod off most probably means _______.

A.turn around       B.a(chǎn)gree with others   C.fall asleep         D.refuse to work

3.What might be a reason for the hard transfer from middle school to high school?

A.Adolescents depend more on their parents.

B.Adolescents have to choose their sleep patterns.

C.Adolescents sleep better than they did at childhood.

D.Adolescents need more sleep than they used to.

4.What is the test mainly about?

A.Adolescent health care.

B.Problems in adolescent learning.

C.Adolescent sleep difficulties.

D.Changes in adolescent sleep needs and patterns.
