名師點評

本文主要想告訴讀者，學(xué)英語是一個長期而艱苦的勞動，沒有任何捷徑可走。無論你用什么方法學(xué)習(xí)——用書、機器或在學(xué)校，不多實踐就無法達(dá)到預(yù)期的目的。

1. B。這里的or是“否則”的意思。

2. C。根據(jù)作者的觀點，這種事絕對不可能發(fā)生。impossible是一個形容詞，不符語法，can’t后不可能跟happens，often意思與作者的意圖相反。

3. D。唯一容易學(xué)的語言是母語。這里需要一個形容詞充當(dāng)后置定語。

4. A。用來修飾不可數(shù)名詞，只有用how much，全句意為“母語好學(xué)，還需要那么多的練習(xí)。”何況外語呢?。

5. B。動詞不定式充當(dāng)目的狀語。意為“學(xué)習(xí)外語來研究文學(xué)”。

6. C。說某種語言用speak，speak English，speak Chinese。

7. D。用it代指上文所說的a foreign language。

8. B。這里的with是“用”的意思。

9. A。作者在這里提出一種假設(shè)。如果他們一星期只有一兩次使用外語。

10. C。固定短語，意為“做某事花費某人多長時間”。

11. B。后面省略了than 6 hours。意為6個小時或更多的時間。

12. D。it 代指上文所指的foreign language，故用被動被態(tài)。

13. C。許多人不可能做到這一點。這里不可以用not possible，因為它的主語不可以用人。

14. D。機器和書對于學(xué)習(xí)英語來說是很有幫助的。

15. B。whether …or…固定短語。
