Ⅱ.阅读理解
You might expect native(本地的)English speakers to be the best at speaking the English language. But some experts believe that non-native speakers do better.
“Often you have a room full of people from different countries communicating in English and all understanding each other. And then suddenly the American and British people walk into the room and nobody can understand them,” Chia Suan Chong, a culture expert, told the BBC. Chong said that happens because non-native speakers communicate more carefully. English speakers, on the other hand often talk too fast or use jokes.
It is something that I keep in mind when talking to my Chinese friends. I am careful to speak slowly and use words they will understand. Sometimes we don’t understand each other., either. Once I told my Chinese friend“no drama(戏剧)”which means“no problem”She thought I was calling her a drama queen(大惊小怪的人)though and got angry.
But don’t worry. Experts say that it is the native speaker’s fault if they can’t understand you not yours! The best way to avoid any trouble might be to ask for some patience. If you find it difficult to understand an English speaker. don’t be afraid to ask him to slow down and speak clearly.
1. According to some experts_______may speak the English language better
A.Englishmen B.Americans C.Chinese D. Australians
2. Native English speakers often_______when they speak the English language.
A. talk more carefully and clearly
B. talk too fast or use jokes
C. speak as slowly as possible
D. tell jokes with body language
3.We can infer(推断)from Paragraph 3 that________
A. the writer may be a native English speaker
B. the writer likes watching dramas very much
C. the writer is bad at speaking the English language
D. the writer has a bad relationship with the Chinese friends
4. According to the text, if your British friends speak English too fast, what will you do
A. Learn English much harder.
B.Tell them to speak it slowly.
C.Don't say anything, just listen.
D. Ask them to write it down.
