been abroad. Like most English children I learned French at school and I had often been to France，so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didnt understand English. But when I went to America I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems.How wrong I was！The misunderstanding began at the airport.I was looking for a public telephone to give my friend Danny a call and tell him that I had arrived.A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.“Yes，” I said.“I want to give my friend a ring.”“Well，thats nice，”he said.“Are you getting married? But arent you a bit young？”“Who is talking about marriage？” I replied.“I only want to give my friend a ring to tell him Ive arrived.Can you tell me wheres a phone box？” “Oh！” he said，“theres a phone downstairs.” When at last we met，Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.“Dont worry，”he said to me.“I have so many difficulties at first.There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from us British.Youll soon get used to all the funny things they say.Most of the time British and American people understand each other！”36Where was the writer from?AHe was from America. BHe was from France.CHe was from England. DHe was from China.答案C解析由第一段的“I made my first visit to the United States”和“like most English children”可推断出答案。37The writer thought _ in America.Ahe wouldnt have any language difficultiesBhe would not understand the AmericansCthe Americans might not understand himDhe would have difficulties at the airport答案A解析根据第一段最后一句“But when I went to America，I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems”可以确定选项A正确。38The writer wanted _.Ato buy a ring for his friend Bto make a call to his friendCto go to the telephone company Dhis friend to see him off答案B解析从第二段可知作者在机场想给朋友打电话。39From the passage we can see that “give somebody a ring”_Ameans the same in America as in EnglandBmeans “call somebody” to the old manCmeans “be going to get married”Dhas two different meanings in America and in England答案D解析作者所遇到的误会是由ring的不同意思引起的。美式英语中give sb.a ring是“给某人一个戒指”的意思，而在英式英语中则是“给某人打电话”的意思。40In the last paragraph，the word “they” refers to _.Athe old man and the boy Bthe AmericansCthe British Dthe French答案B解析因为作者和Danny是英国人，所以他们所说的they是指“美国人”。BA student is learning to speak British English.He wonders(想知道): Can I communicate (交际) with Americans? Can they understand me? Learners of English often ask: What are the differences between British English and American English? How important are these differences?Certainly，there are some differences between British and American English.There are a few differences in grammar.For example，speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen？”，while Americans say “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen？”Pronunciation is sometimes different.Americans usually sound r in words like “bird ”and “hurt”Speakers of British English do not sound r in these words.There are differences between British English and American English in spelling and vocabulary.For example，“colour” and “honour” are British，“color” and “honor” are American.These differences in grammar，pronunciation，spelling and vocabulary are not important，however.For the most part，British English and American English are the same language.41According to this passage，a student who is learning to speak American English might be afraid that _.ABritish people cannot understand himBAmerican people cannot understand himCthe grammar is too hard for himDthe spelling is too hard for him答案B解析此题考查细节事实和辨别能力。学英语的学生常会担心美国人不懂他的意思，从文中第一段可以找到。42American English and British English are different in_.Aspelling Bpronunciation Cgrammar Dall of the above答案D解析文章第二段给出了英式英语和美式英语的几点不同：在拼写、发音、词汇及语法上。故此题选D。43What is NOT mentioned(提及)in the passage?AWhether there are differences between British English and American English.BWhether British English and American English are one language or two.CHow the differences between British English and American English came about.DHow important the differences are.答案C解析英式及美式英语不同之处产生的根源本文中没有涉及，故选C。44Most_say “Do you have a watch？”ABritish people BAmericans Cchildren Dteachers答案B 解析根据文中第二段的第四、五行可得此答案。45According to this passage，British people and Americans have_difficulty in understanding each other.Alittle Bmuch Csome Dgreat答案A解析本文第三段意在指明：尽管英式英语和美式英语在几个方面有些不同，但大体来说，它们仍属同一种语言。所以英国人和美国人相互理解起来也没有困难。CThroughout history，people have been interested in knowing how language first began，but no one knows exactly where or how this happened. However，we do know a lot about languages，the languages of today and also the languages of earlier times.There are probably about three thousand languages in the world today.Chinese is the language with the most speakers.English，Russian and Spanish are also spoken by many millions of people.On the other hand, some languages in the world have less than one hundred speakers.There are several important families of languages in the world.For example，most of the languages of Europe are in one large family called the IndoEuropean language family.The original(最初的)language of this family was spoken about 4,500 years ago.Many of the present languages of Europe and India are modern forms of the language of 4,500 years ago.Languages are always changing.The English of today is very different from the English of 500 years ago.In time some even die out completely.About 1,000 years ago，English was a littleknown relative of German spoken on one of the borders(边界)of Europe.If a language has a lot of speakers or if it is very old，there may be differences in the way it is spoken in different areas.That is，the language may have several dialects.Chinese is a good example of dialect differences.Chinese has been spoken for thousands of years by many millions of speakers.The differences among the dialects of Chinese are so great that speakers of Chinese from some parts of China cannot understand speakers from other parts.46The first paragraph mainly tells us that _.Amost people in the world speak ChineseBthere are thousands of languages in the world todayCman has much knowledge about languagesDsome people know several languages答案C解析A项是错误的，因为第一段说讲汉语的人最多，但并不是说世界上大多数人都讲汉语；B项只是人们对语言了解的一部分内容，并不是全段的主要内容；D项根本未提及。正确答案为C，从第二句话后面的内容可知人们对语言了解得很多。 47Many European and Indian languages _.Awill soon die out completelyBwere once a relative of EnglishCare the same as beforeDcome from the same family答案D解析从第二段可知，many European and Indian languages来自同一个语系，即IndoEuropean语系，它们都是这种古老语言的现代表达形式。48_ seems to have changed a lot.AChinese BEnglish CSpanish DGerman答案B解析第三段的主题句是第一句话，说明了语言一直在发展变化，然后以English为例，讲述了这门语言的变化之大。49The word “dialect” in the last paragraph means _.Aa special language spoken by ChineseBthe sign used by Chinese people in a special areaCthe difference between the old and todays ChineseDthe form of a language used in one part of the country答案D解析从最后一段前两句话可知，如果有很多人讲同一种语言，且这种语言历史悠久，在不同地区就会有差异，因此dialect指“方言”。50The subject of this passage is _.AlanguageBdialectCthe difference between language and dialectDspeakers of different languages答案A解析通读全文可知，文章的主题就是language。DEnglish is a language spoken all around the world.There are more than 42 countries where the majority of the people speak English.Most native speakers of English are found in the United Kingdom，the United States，Canada，Australia，South Africa，Ireland and New Zealand.In total，for more than 375 million people，English is their mother tongue.An equal number of people learn English as a second language.These people will perhaps speak the language of their own country at home with their family，but the language of the government，schools，newspapers and TV is English.However，the number of people who learn English as a foreign language is more than 750 million.Everywhere in the world children go to school to learn English.In China，students learn English at school as a foreign language，except for those in Hong Kong，where many people speak English as a first or a second language.In only fifty years，English has developed into the language most widely spoken and used in the world.English is the working language of most international organizations，international trade and tourism.English is also the language of global culture，such as popular music and the Internet.You can listen to English songs on the radio or use English to communicate with people around the world through the Internet.With so many people communicating in English every day，it will become more and more important to have a good knowledge of English.51How many people learn English as a second language?A37,500,000. B375,000,000. C750,000,000. D75,000,000.答案C解析由第二段第一句“the number of people who learn English as a foreign language is more than 750 million”可得出答案。52In China we are learning English as a_.Afirst language Bsecond languageCforeign language Dmother tongue答案C解析由第二段“in China students learn English at school as a foreign language”可得出答案。53Most international organizations use _ as their working language.AEnglish BFrench CChinese DJapanese答案A解析依据第二段“English is the working language of most international organizations”可知选A。54Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?AThere are more than 42 countries where most of the people speak English.BThe number of people who learn English as a foreign language is more than 750 million.CEnglish is the language of global culture like popular music and the Internet.DEnglish is the most important and widely used language in the world.答案D解析通读全文可知，本文主要介绍英语的使用，所以D项最恰当地概括了本文的大意。55From the passage we can infer that _.AEnglish will be the only language to be used in the worldBnative speakers of English might find it unnecessary for them to learn a foreign languageCthe number of learners of English will become smaller in the futureDto master English will become more and more important答案D解析这是一个推断题。根据最后一段可以推断出：掌握英语的重要性。第卷(共45分)第三部分书面表达(共两节，满分45分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分)阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求)。American government has suggested a new plan to increase the study of foreign languages in schools.A research has shown that childhood is a better time than manhood to learn foreign languages.However，_ learn only English.Less than onethird of American elementary schools teach foreign languages.Only 44 percent of American high school students take a foreign language.And 70 percent of them are learning Spanish.Whats more，the United States doesnt have enough foreign language teachers.The plan calls for teaching more children foreign languages，as early as the age of four.Most of the new teaching in languages would be not widely taught now in American schools.These include Arabic，Chinese，Farsi(波斯语)，Hindi(印度语)and Russian.It also aims to increase foreign language instruction in colleges and graduate schools.The hope is to bring more foreign language speakers into government service.Administration officials will ask for 114 million dollars in 2009 to start the program.The money would be used to help foreignlanguage students pay for their education.The plan also calls for sending more American students to other countries to study.And it calls for bringing more foreign language teaching assistants to the United States.In a word, to face the uncertain challenges in the future, America needs more officers，teachers, and students who can understand foreign languages.It_will_also_improve_the_understanding_and_cultural_exchange_between_America_and_other_countries_around_the_world.56What is the best title of the passage？(Please answer within 10 words.)US_Planning_to_Increase_the_Study_of_Foreign_Languages57Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?It has been proved by research that its e
