Email is a form of communication that is changing, for the worse, the way we write and use language, say some communication researchers. It is also changing the way we interact(交流) and build relationship. These are a few of the recently recognized features of email, say experts, which should cause individuals and organizations to rethink the way they use email. “Email has increased the spread of careless writing habits, ” says Naomi Baron, a professor of linguistics(语言学) at an American university. She says the poor spelling, grammar, punctuation and sentence structure of emails reflect(反映) a growing unconcern about the way we write. Baron argues that we shouldnt forgive and forget the poor writing often shown in email. “The more we use email and its tasteless writing, the more it becomes the normal way of writing, ” the professor says. Others say that despite its poor writing, email has finished what several generations of English teachers couldnt: it has made writing fashionable again. “Email is a critical new communication technology. ” says Ian Lancashire, a professor of English at Toronto University. “It fills the gap between spoken language and the formal methods of writing that existed before email. It is the purest form of written speech. ”Lancashire says email has the mysterious ability to get people who are usually scared by writing to get their thoughts flowing easily onto a blank screen. He says this is because of emails close similarity to speech. “Its like a circle of four or five people around a campfire, ” he says. Still, he accepts that this new-found freedom to express themselves often gets people into trouble. Emails sent in a day almost exceed(超过) the number of letters mailed in a year. But more people are recognizing the content of a typical email message is not often exact. 【文章大意】本文介绍了电子邮件使写信这种古老而传统的沟通方式又恢复了生机, 但用电子邮件写信也带来了一些新的问题, 专家们对此也有不同的看法。本文就此陈述了这些不同的观点。5.

We can say this about language learning, including learning new words. 1Our reader Banin has a question today. Here is the question: how can I improve my vocabulary? It is a great question! The answer will help many English learners. Here are four things you can do. Read, read, readRead a lot! Look for new stories, websites, magazines and books on subjects that you enjoy. While reading, try to guess the meanings of new words from their context. 2 If there are television shows or films that you love in English, watch them with English subtitles to learn new words and hear how we say them. Write about itBut, dont just read. Write! A great way to practice what you read is to write about it. 3Another thing you can write about is what you did today. If you spent time with a friend or family member, went to an event, had a delicious meal or did something else, write about it! Learn word forms4 When you learn a new word, learn its other forms. For example, the word “sleepy” is an adjective. But it has noun, verb and adverb forms. You can make a word form chart in a notebook or wireless device and write a sentence example for each form. 5Another powerful memory tool is word association: use your imagination to create mental images linked to new words. For example, when I say “tasty”, what food image do you see in your mind? Keep that food image in your mind and always mentally connect it to the word “tasty”. Then, the next time you try to remember the word “tasty”, the mental image will appear. A. Use word families. B. Use word association. C. Heres another great technique. D. If you do not use the new words often, you might forget them. E. Then, you can check the meanings in a paper dictionary or online. F. For example, if you read a web story about the best fitness apps of 2019, write about it. G. Writing can be a great way of properly learning the kind of vocabulary you need to describe your own life and interests. 【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。作者就如何提高词汇量提出了几点有效的方法。1. 【解析】选D。根据上句“We can say this about language learning, including learning new words”可知, 这也适用于语言学习, 包括学习新单词。是对上文“Use it or lose it. ”在学习新单词中的具体解释。故D选项“如果你不经常使用这些新单词, 你可能会忘记它们。”符合题意。 2. 【解析】选E。根据上句“While reading, try to guess the meanings of new words from their context”可知, 阅读时, 试着从上下文中猜测生词的含义。既然是猜测的含义, 就存在着错或者对, 所以小题2处解释通过某种手段来核对含义是错还是对。故E选项“然后, 你可以在纸质词典或在线上核对它们的意思”符合题意。3. 【解析】选F。根据下句“Another thing you can write about is what you did today. If you spent time with a friend or family member, went to an event, had a delicious meal or did something else, write about it”可知, 你可以写的另一件事是你今天所做的。“如果你和朋友或家人一起度过一段时间, 去参加一个活动, 吃一顿美味的饭, 或者做点别的事情, 就写下来。所以我们判断出小题3也应该是写的某个事情的具体内容。4. 【解析】选C。根据下句“When you learn a new word, learn its other forms. ”可知, 当你学习一个新词时, 学习它的其他形式。所以小题4是为了介绍“当你学习一个新词时, 学习它的其他形式”。C选项“这是其他的好的技巧”符合题意。5. 【解析】选B。根据下句“Another powerful memory tool is word association. . . the mental image will appear. ”可知, 另一个强大的记忆工具是单词联想脑中的形象会出现。整个段落都在讲如何进行单词联想。空处为本段的小标题。B选项“使用单词联想”符合题意。9
