Unit 5 Poems 综合测试
一、阅读理解
People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn, and it is not easy to answer because there are too many factors to take into consideration. Firstly, in a first language the difficulties are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally, so the question of how hard a language is to learn only makes more sense when learning a second language.
A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different, so first language can affect learning a second language. The greater the differences between the second language and our first language, the harder it will be for most people to learn. Many people answer that Chinese is the hardest language to learn, possibly influenced by the thought of learning the Chinese writing system, and the pronunciation of Chinese does appear to be very difficult for many foreign learners. However, for Japanese speakers, who already use Chinese characters in their own language, learning writing will be less difficult than for speakers of languages using the Roman alphabet.
Some people seem to learn languages easily, while others find it very difficult. Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role, as well as each learner’s motivation for learning. If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally, they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.
Obviously, British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second hardest language is Japanese, which will probably come as no surprise to many, but the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian, which uses a similar alphabet to English but has 35 cases (forms of a nouns according to whether it is subject, object, genitive, etc). This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for everyone, but it causes British diplomatic personnel, who are generally used to learning languages, the most difficulty. However, Tabassaran, a Caucasian language has 48 cases, so it might cause more difficulty if British diplomats had to learn it.
Different cultures and individuals from those cultures will find different languages more difficult. Therefore, it is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world.
1．What can we infer from the first paragraph
A．The question of how hard a language is to learn is only applicable to first language acquisition.
B．The question of how hard a language is to learn is only applicable to second language acquisition.
C．The question of how hard a language is to learn is applicable to both first and second language acquisition.
D．There are too many languages in the world so it’s difficult to say which one is the most difficult to learn.
2．Which language will a native Portuguese speaker probably find easier to learn
A．Chinese, because Portuguese use Chinese characters in their own language .
B．Japanese, because it is similar to their own language.
C．Spanish, because it also uses Roman alphabet.
D．Anyone but Chinese, because its pronunciation is very difficult.
3．What does the underlined word “circumstances” mean in Paragraph 3
A．A particular situation or environment. B．The degree of education that somebody has obtained.
C．Teachers’ encouragement. D．Professional training.
4．The author is most likely to agree ____
A．many British diplomats learn Tabassaran.
B．Hungarian’s grammatical complexity causes problems for native British speakers.
C．Tabassaran is the hardest language to learn in the world for native European speakers.
D．learning a different writing system is very easy for British speakers.

The Oxford Dictionary has announced its word of the year. It’s spelled... Actually, it isn’t spelled at all, because it contains no letters, just a “face with tears of joy” emoji.
“The fact that English alone is proving not enough to meet the needs of 21st-century digital communication is a huge change,” says Caspar Grathwohl, president of Oxford Dictionaries. When one of his dictionary colleagues suggested using an emoji instead of the word “emoji”, “lightbulbs went off”. Until recently, Grathwohl, who is 44, avoided using emojis altogether because he worried that he would look as if he “was trying to get in on teen culture”. “I felt inauthentic. But I think there was a tipping point this year. It’s now moved into the mainstream.”
Some 76% of the UK adult population owns a smart phone, and of those, between 80% and 90% use emojis. Worldwide, six billion are sent daily. The “face with tears of joy” is the most used, representing 20% of all UK and 17% of all US emoji use. It has overtaken the standard smiley-face emoji in popularity, which may mean that emoji users are moving towards exaggeration or irony or fun, or that all this emoji use has brought everyone to a higher emotional plane. Even if you don’t send emojis yourself, you will probably receive them.
How far do emojis function as a language “There’s a lot of prejudice against emojis,” Vyvyan Evans, a professor in linguistics at Bangor University, says. “A lot of people think they are a backward step, but this misunderstands the nature of human communication.” The picture is more complicated, with emojis offering both greater freedom and limitations than verbal language. “Emoji isn’t a language as such. They don’t develop in the way that the natural language does. But they are working according to the same principles of communication as the spoken language. What is the value of an emoji I think I can prove this with an ordinary sentence.” There is a pause. “I love you,” he says. “Crikey(哎呀), I love you.” He says it again. The first time I think he means it; the second time we both know he doesn’t. “The meaning is coming from extra-language factors,” he says. “Emojis are performing the same function in digital speech.”
Like any sort-of language, emoji is evolving. “I do think they are subtle(微妙) and rich,” Grathwohl says. “They can mean different things to different people. The fact that we are using emoji in combination to express more complex ideas and experiences is one of the most fun and playful parts of the whole words. Will emoji finally come to look something more like traditional language that we understand ” he asks. “That would be interesting.”
8．The sentence “lightbulbs went off” (Para. 2) means that .
A．the president became embarrassed and annoyed
B．the president suddenly realized he was outdated
C．the suggestion was immediately adopted
D．the suggestion started a heated discussion
9．The “face with tears of joy” is more popular than smiley-face emoji, which means that .
A．emoji is changing constantly
B．smiley-face emoji is too traditional
C．adults have more sorrow than joy in their daily life
D．people like to express their emotions in a richer way
10．Vyvyan Evans uses the sentence “I love you” as an example (Para. 4) to prove that .
A．emoji can express the real meaning behind words
B．emoji is different from the natural language
C．people feel free to use emoji in communication
D．emoji will limit people in expressing their feelings
11．Which of the following statements might Grathwohl agree with
A．Emoji is too childish for adults.
B．People have the same explanation for an emoji.
C．Using emoji can add fun to communication.
D．Emoji won’t develop into a language.
二、七选五
What do you think when you hear the phrase “when pigs fly ” ____12____This common saying is used to express the idea that something is highly impossible. For example, if you ask your parents to buy you something very expensive, the answer might be “when pigs fly ”
____13____An old mention of pigs flying appeared in Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. However, it is believed that Carroll may have picked up the phrase from the Scottish, who had been using the phrase for several hundred years. That may be right.

68．请阅读下面短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
Is youth lingo ruining the Chinese language
Young people often create their own language that goes beyond rigid linguistic rules. This year’s latest slang (俚语) terms add a further simplification: the use of pinyin acronyms (首字母缩略词). “Awsl,” in pinyin, for instance,means “Ah, wo si le” (Oh, I’m gonna die), and is used if something is too cute or adorable to bear. “Pyq” stands for “pengyou quan”, the social feed on the popular Chinese social media app WeChat, and “nsdd” stands for “ni shuo de dui” (you’re right).
Teens want to be different from their parents, so it’s natural for them to create and use their own linguistic terms to show that. In doing so, young people are indeed driving linguistic change. They aren’t the only factor influencing language development, but they can indeed transform how future generations communicate.
Critics fear that Chinese internet slang will have the potential to negatively influence broader linguistic trends of Mandarin Chinese, in particular, the gradual taking over of pinyin. As pinyin gets widely used when texting or writing on mobile phone or computer, while less and less people write characters by hand, people gradually forget how to write them. The phenomenon has got a name in China: Character amnesia(健忘症).

试卷第1页，共3页
试卷第1页，共3页
参考答案：
1．D 2．C 3．A 4．B
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章论述了世界上哪一种语言最难学。
1．推理判断题。根据第一段中“People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn, and it is not easy to answer because there are too many factors to take into consideration.(人们经常会问，哪一种语言最难学，因为要考虑的因素太多了，所以不容易回答)”可推知，世界上有太多的语言，所以很难说哪一种语言最难学。故选D。
2．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different, so first language can affect learning a second language.(例如，以西班牙语为母语的人会发现比以汉语为母语的人更容易学习葡萄牙语，因为葡萄牙语与西班牙语非常相似，而汉语则截然不同，所以第一语言会影响第二语言的学习)”可知，以葡萄牙语为母语的人会觉得西班牙语更容易学，因为它也使用罗马字母。故选C。
3．词义猜测题。根据第三段中“ Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role, as well as each learner’s motivation for learning.If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally, they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.(教师和学习语言的circumstances 以及每个学习者的学习动机也发挥着重要作用。如果人们学习一门语言是因为他们需要专业地使用它，他们通常比学习一门在日常生活中没有直接使用的语言更快)”可知，老师和学习环境，还有每个学者的学习动机，在学语言中也扮演着重要作用。故画线词意思是“一个特别的境况和环境”。故选A。
4．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Obviously, British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second hardest language is Japanese, which will probably come as no surprise to many, but the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian, which uses a similar alphabet to English but has 35 cases (forms of a nouns according to whether it is subject, object, genitive, etc). This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for everyone, but it causes British diplomatic personnel, who are generally used to learning languages, the most difficulty.(显然，英国外交官和其他大使馆工作人员发现，第二难的语言是日语，这对许多人来说可能并不奇怪，但他们发现问题最多的语言是匈牙利语，它使用与英语相似的字母表，但有35个格（名词的形式取决于它是主语、宾语、属格等）。这并不是说匈牙利语对每个人来说都是最难学的语言，但它让一般习惯学习语言的英国外交人员最困难)”可推知，不是匈牙利语的书写体系而是它的语法复杂性给本地英国学者带来麻烦。故选B。
5．C 6．D 7．D
【导语】本文是应用文。文章主要是关于学术新闻儿童记者团要招收2020~2021记者成员的要求的相关信息。
5．推理判断题。根据第三段“In order to be considered, you must be between the ages of 10~14”(要想被考虑，你必须在10-14岁之间)可知，这篇文章的读者应该是10-14岁的孩子们。故选C。
6．细节理解题。根据倒数第四段“Kid Reporters are chosen by Scholastic News Kids Press Corps editors, and the 2020~2021 Kid Reporter team will be announced in early November.”(儿童记者由学术新闻儿童记者团的编辑挑选，2020~2021年的儿童记者团队将在11月初宣布。)可知，学术新闻儿童记者团会在11月的时候公布招收结果，所以D选项这句话是正确的。故选D。
7．推理判断题。根据第一段“How to join the Scholastic News Kids Press Corps for the 2020~2021 school year ”(如何在2020~2021学年加入学术新闻儿童记者团？)可知，这篇文章是要为学术新闻儿童记者团招收2020~2021记者成员，下文是招收成员的具体要求，所以这是一篇海报。故选D。
8．C 9．D 10．A 11．C
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章是关于牛津词典的主编对表情符号的含义的见解。其中穿插了对表情符号的解读和之所以广泛使用的原因的讨论。
8．句意猜测题。根据第二段中“When one of his dictionary colleagues suggested using an emoji instead of the word ‘emoji’(当他的一位词典同事建议用一个表情符号来代替‘emoji’这个词时)”可知，Caspar Grathwohl的同事向他提出一个建议，结合本段最后一句“But I think there was a tipping point this year. It’s now moved into the mainstream.(但我认为今年出现了一个转折点。现在它已经成为主流)”可知，Caspar Grathwohl原本尽力避免使用表情符号，但是今年出现了转折，表情符号已经成为主流，由此可以得出他应是采纳了同事的建议，故选C项。
9．细节理解题。根据第三段中“It has overtaken the standard smiley-face emoji in popularity, which may mean that emoji users are moving towards exaggeration or irony or fun, or that all this emoji use has brought everyone to a higher emotional plane.(它的受欢迎程度已经超过了标准的笑脸表情符号，这可能意味着表情符号用户正朝着夸张、讽刺或有趣的方向发展，或者所有这些表情符号的使用把每个人都带到了一个更高的情感层面)”可知，“喜极而泣”的表情符号比笑脸符号更受欢迎，这意味着人们喜欢用更丰富的方式表达自己的情感。故选D项。
10．推理判断题。从第四段的“‘The meaning is coming from extra-language factors,’ he says. ‘Emojis are performing the same function in digital speech.’(‘意义来自于语言之外的因素。’他说。‘表情符号在数字讲话中发挥着同样的作用。’)”可知，Vyvyan Evans的意思是表情符号的意思来自于语言以外的东西，它的功能和数字语音一样，能表达语言背后的真实意思。故选A项。
11．推理判断题。 根据最后一段中“The fact that we are using emoji in combination to express more complex ideas and experiences is one of the most fun and playful parts of the whole words.(事实上，我们正在结合使用表情符号来表达更复杂的想法和体验，这是整个词汇中最有趣和好玩的部分之一)”可知，Grathwohl认为使用表情符号可以给交流增加乐趣。故选C项。
12．D 13．C 14．B 15．G 16．F
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了短语“when pigs fly ”的含义、使用场景、起源以及类似表达。
12．上文“What do you think when you hear the phrase “when pigs fly ” （当你听到“除非猪能飞”这句话时，你会怎么想 ）”通过疑问句的形式询问对“when pigs fly ”的理解，最直接的反应就是“当猪飞的时候”，选项D描绘了这个画面，“Maybe funny pictures of pigs with wings fill your mind.（也许你的脑海里出现了猪长着翅膀的有趣图片）”，符合“when pigs fly ”的字面含义。故选D项。
13．下文“An old mention of pigs flying appeared in Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. （刘易斯·卡罗尔的《爱丽丝梦游仙境》中曾经提到过猪会飞。）”提及“when pigs fly ” 的起源，又通过进一步的解释说明这句话有上百年的历史，“it is believed that Carroll may have picked up the phrase from the Scottish, who had been using the phrase for several hundred years. （人们认为卡罗尔可能是从苏格兰人那里学来这个短语的，苏格兰人已经使用这个短语几百年了。）”，苏格兰人很久之前就用了这句话，下文均在说明“when pigs fly ” 的起源。选项C“You may want to know the origin of this phrase.（你可能想知道这个短语的起源）”可以作为主题句概括第二段的内容，说明本段要讲述这个短语的起源。故选C项。
14．上文“There are also those who believe the phrase may have gotten its start in America. （也有人认为这个短语起源于美国。）”说明对于这个短语的起源还有另外一种说法，它可能是起源于美国。下文“It’s not surprising that many common sayings that developed back then had an animal or farm background.（这并不奇怪，许多流行的俗语都有动物或农场的背景。）”交代了这个短语起源的背景有动物和农场。选项B“Long ago, most Americans worked in farming.（很久以前，大多数美国人从事农业。）”可以起到承上启下的作用，将这个短语起源的场景设定为在美国的农场。故选B项。
15．上文“For example, farmers used to take pigs to slaughterhouse along rivers on small boats. If it was foggy, people on the bank could only see the pigs’ heads above the fog. （例如，农民过去常常用小船把猪带到河边的屠宰场。如果有雾，岸上的人只能看到雾中猪的头。）”说明有雾的情况下，只能看到猪头。选项G“This made them look like they were flying through the clouds.（这使他们看起来像是在云层中飞行。）”承接上文的描述，看起来像是猪在云中飞。故选G项。
16．上文“Other countries also use animals to show impossibility. （其他国家也用动物来表示不可能。）”说明其他国家还有其他类似“when pigs fly ” 的短语，概括了本段的中心。下文“Other countries, such as France and Spain, use phrases like “when frogs grow hair or when hens grow teeth”.（其他国家，如法国和西班牙，则使用“当青蛙长头发或当母鸡长牙齿时”这样的短语。）”举例说明了类似“when pigs fly ” 的短语。选项F“For example, many countries use the phrase “when cows fly”.（例如，许多国家使用“when cows fly”这个短语。）”也是通过举例子的方式讲述了类似“when pigs fly ” 的短语，符合本段的中心。故选F项。
17．C 18．A 19．D 20．C 21．B 22．A 23．D 24．C 25．A 26．B 27．A 28．B 29．C 30．B 31．D

36．考查非谓语动词。句意：如果你以一种疯狂的方式跑来跑去——或者只是非常忙——你就被说成是像一只没头的鸡一样跑来跑去。介词with后宾语its head与cut之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词作宾语补足语。故填cut。

43．deadline##eadline
【详解】考查名词。句意：我们没能赶上最后期限是因为一个关键部件的制造延期了。此处缺少名词作动词meet的宾语，根据首字母提示和句意“最后期限”可知是deadline，此处为单数概念，故填deadline。

【点睛】
54．The children who/that often watch TV learn fewer words than their peers.
【详解】考查定语从句。分析给出的两个句子可知，两句中都有提到“the children”，所以可以把其作为先行词，把第一个句子作为主句，第二个句子作为定语从句；先行词the children在第二个句中为主语，所以关系代词用who/that，故答案为：The children who/that often watch TV learn fewer words than their peers.
55．This is the adventure that I have been dreaming of .
【详解】考查名词、定语从句、现在完成进行时。根据汉语意思提示可知，表示“冒险之旅”为名词adventure；根据句意可知，该句可为定语从句对先行词adventure做出修饰，在该定语从句中，表示“梦寐以求”应为动词短语dream of；结合提示要求用现在完成进行时，可知，该定语从句应为that I have been dreaming of。其次根据句意可知，整句应为一般现在时。故翻译为：This is the adventure that I have been dreaming of。

68．Possible version one:
Young Internet users are always coming up with new slang to differentiate themselves. But the rapidly developing Internet lingo, some people are concerned that it's ruining the Chinese language.
In my opinion, it's unnecessary for older generations to fear the use of slang is weakening the people's capability to write and remember Chinese characters. For one thing, new terms add variety to a language as they give a group of people a sense of belonging. For another, youth lingo, which is a source of identity for young people, has existed long before the Internet. As a matter of fact, youth lingo has not made the Chinese language disappear but has impacted the language.
To conclude, while language development is unavoidable, Chinese Internet lingo is unlikely to replace the existing use of Mandarin Chinese, but will rather be enriching it by adding another layer.
Possible Version two:
Nowadays, young people often create some new slangs to differentiate themselves. However, with the rapid development of Internet lingo, many critics, especially the seniors, believe that the emergence of such lingo will damage the foundation of Chinese language.
In my opinion, it is not necessary to worry about the new slang that will likely weaken the new generation’s capability of writing or remembering Chinese characters. There are two reasons. Firstly, the purpose of language is to convey ideas and share opinions. Thus, the prevailing youth lingo,as a more concise and efficient way of expression, is in fact an enrichment of modern Chinese language. Secondly, since every era has its own young generation,the youth lingo, can be a new identity for young people,cannot pollute or extinct Chinese language but by contrast, it may become an emblem or living fossil of this specific era.
To conclude, while language development is inevitable, Chinese internet lingo is unlikely to replace the existing use of Mandarin Chinese but will be enriching it by adding a new layer or dimension to it.
【分析】本文是一篇任务型写作。
【详解】本文是一篇任务型写作。共分两个任务：第一个任务用约30个单词概述上文年轻人使用网络语言的现象；第二个任务用约120个单词发表你的观点，内容包括:谈谈你的看法，用2 3个理由或论据支撑你的看法。第二部分给出了写作提纲。注意完成第一任务时，语言使用应简练、准确、到位。在第二个任务中，应涵盖题目所列出的三大要点。本文应主要使用一般现在时态。写作过程中注意使用平时学到的短语和句型，注意行文的连贯和逻辑性。
【点睛】文章概括性强，包含了所有要点。作者发表了自己的观点，用运用了2—3个理由来支撑自己的看法。同时文中使用高级句子。it's unnecessary for older generations to fear the use of slang is weakening the people's capability to write and remember Chinese characters.句中it作形式主语，动词不定式作真正的主语；since every era has its own young generation,the youth lingo, can be a new identity for young people,cannot pollute or extinct Chinese language but by contrast句中since引导原因状语从句；while language development is inevitable, Chinese internet lingo is unlikely to replace the existing use of Mandarin Chinese but will be enriching it by adding a new layer or dimension to it.句中while引导让步状语从句；另外，In my opinion, Firstly, Thus, To conclude,等的运用为文章增色添彩。
69． happened to know that houses
【详解】考查固定短语和定语从句。根据汉语意思提示以及提示词可知，第一部分为happen to do“碰巧做某事”，结合语境判断为一般过去时，“知道”表达为know；第二部分为that引导的限制性定语从句，先行词an organization在从句中作主语成分，谓语为houses“收留”。故答案分别填happened；to；know；that；houses。
70．where he was educated
【详解】考查从句、时态和语态。对比中英文句子，此处应用“他接受教育的”修饰名词college，可处理为定语从句；从句主语是he，谓语动词是educate，主谓之间是被动关系，且陈述过去的事情，故用一般过去时的被动语态；先行词是college，关系词代替它在从句中做地点状语，应用关系副词where引导从句。故填where he was educated。

一、阅读理解
People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn, and it is not easy to answer because there are too many factors to take into consideration. Firstly, in a first language the difficulties are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally, so the question of how hard a language is to learn only makes more sense when learning a second language.
A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different, so first language can affect learning a second language. The greater the differences between the second language and our first language, the harder it will be for most people to learn. Many people answer that Chinese is the hardest language to learn, possibly influenced by the thought of learning the Chinese writing system, and the pronunciation of Chinese does appear to be very difficult for many foreign learners. However, for Japanese speakers, who already use Chinese characters in their own language, learning writing will be less difficult than for speakers of languages using the Roman alphabet.
Some people seem to learn languages easily, while others find it very difficult. Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role, as well as each learner’s motivation for learning. If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally, they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.
Obviously, British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second hardest language is Japanese, which will probably come as no surprise to many, but the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian, which uses a similar alphabet to English but has 35 cases (forms of a nouns according to whether it is subject, object, genitive, etc). This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for everyone, but it causes British diplomatic personnel, who are generally used to learning languages, the most difficulty. However, Tabassaran, a Caucasian language has 48 cases, so it might cause more difficulty if British diplomats had to learn it.
Different cultures and individuals from those cultures will find different languages more difficult. Therefore, it is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world.
1．What can we infer from the first paragraph
A．The question of how hard a language is to learn is only applicable to first language acquisition.
B．The question of how hard a language is to learn is only applicable to second language acquisition.
C．The question of how hard a language is to learn is applicable to both first and second language acquisition.
D．There are too many languages in the world so it’s difficult to say which one is the most difficult to learn.
2．Which language will a native Portuguese speaker probably find easier to learn
A．Chinese, because Portuguese use Chinese characters in their own language .
B．Japanese, because it is similar to their own language.
C．Spanish, because it also uses Roman alphabet.
D．Anyone but Chinese, because its pronunciation is very difficult.
3．What does the underlined word “circumstances” mean in Paragraph 3
A．A particular situation or environment. B．The degree of education that somebody has obtained.
C．Teachers’ encouragement. D．Professional training.
4．The author is most likely to agree ____
A．many British diplomats learn Tabassaran.
B．Hungarian’s grammatical complexity causes problems for native British speakers.
C．Tabassaran is the hardest language to learn in the world for native European speakers.
D．learning a different writing system is very easy for British speakers.

The Oxford Dictionary has announced its word of the year. It’s spelled... Actually, it isn’t spelled at all, because it contains no letters, just a “face with tears of joy” emoji.
“The fact that English alone is proving not enough to meet the needs of 21st-century digital communication is a huge change,” says Caspar Grathwohl, president of Oxford Dictionaries. When one of his dictionary colleagues suggested using an emoji instead of the word “emoji”, “lightbulbs went off”. Until recently, Grathwohl, who is 44, avoided using emojis altogether because he worried that he would look as if he “was trying to get in on teen culture”. “I felt inauthentic. But I think there was a tipping point this year. It’s now moved into the mainstream.”
Some 76% of the UK adult population owns a smart phone, and of those, between 80% and 90% use emojis. Worldwide, six billion are sent daily. The “face with tears of joy” is the most used, representing 20% of all UK and 17% of all US emoji use. It has overtaken the standard smiley-face emoji in popularity, which may mean that emoji users are moving towards exaggeration or irony or fun, or that all this emoji use has brought everyone to a higher emotional plane. Even if you don’t send emojis yourself, you will probably receive them.
How far do emojis function as a language “There’s a lot of prejudice against emojis,” Vyvyan Evans, a professor in linguistics at Bangor University, says. “A lot of people think they are a backward step, but this misunderstands the nature of human communication.” The picture is more complicated, with emojis offering both greater freedom and limitations than verbal language. “Emoji isn’t a language as such. They don’t develop in the way that the natural language does. But they are working according to the same principles of communication as the spoken language. What is the value of an emoji I think I can prove this with an ordinary sentence.” There is a pause. “I love you,” he says. “Crikey(哎呀), I love you.” He says it again. The first time I think he means it; the second time we both know he doesn’t. “The meaning is coming from extra-language factors,” he says. “Emojis are performing the same function in digital speech.”
Like any sort-of language, emoji is evolving. “I do think they are subtle(微妙) and rich,” Grathwohl says. “They can mean different things to different people. The fact that we are using emoji in combination to express more complex ideas and experiences is one of the most fun and playful parts of the whole words. Will emoji finally come to look something more like traditional language that we understand ” he asks. “That would be interesting.”
8．The sentence “lightbulbs went off” (Para. 2) means that .
A．the president became embarrassed and annoyed
B．the president suddenly realized he was outdated
C．the suggestion was immediately adopted
D．the suggestion started a heated discussion
9．The “face with tears of joy” is more popular than smiley-face emoji, which means that .
A．emoji is changing constantly
B．smiley-face emoji is too traditional
C．adults have more sorrow than joy in their daily life
D．people like to express their emotions in a richer way
10．Vyvyan Evans uses the sentence “I love you” as an example (Para. 4) to prove that .
A．emoji can express the real meaning behind words
B．emoji is different from the natural language
C．people feel free to use emoji in communication
D．emoji will limit people in expressing their feelings
11．Which of the following statements might Grathwohl agree with
A．Emoji is too childish for adults.
B．People have the same explanation for an emoji.
C．Using emoji can add fun to communication.
D．Emoji won’t develop into a language.

68．请阅读下面短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
Is youth lingo ruining the Chinese language
Young people often create their own language that goes beyond rigid linguistic rules. This year’s latest slang (俚语) terms add a further simplification: the use of pinyin acronyms (首字母缩略词). “Awsl,” in pinyin, for instance,means “Ah, wo si le” (Oh, I’m gonna die), and is used if something is too cute or adorable to bear. “Pyq” stands for “pengyou quan”, the social feed on the popular Chinese social media app WeChat, and “nsdd” stands for “ni shuo de dui” (you’re right).
Teens want to be different from their parents, so it’s natural for them to create and use their own linguistic terms to show that. In doing so, young people are indeed driving linguistic change. They aren’t the only factor influencing language development, but they can indeed transform how future generations communicate.
Critics fear that Chinese internet slang will have the potential to negatively influence broader linguistic trends of Mandarin Chinese, in particular, the gradual taking over of pinyin. As pinyin gets widely used when texting or writing on mobile phone or computer, while less and less people write characters by hand, people gradually forget how to write them. The phenomenon has got a name in China: Character amnesia(健忘症).

试卷第1页，共3页
试卷第1页，共3页
参考答案：
1．D 2．C 3．A 4．B
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章论述了世界上哪一种语言最难学。
1．推理判断题。根据第一段中“People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn, and it is not easy to answer because there are too many factors to take into consideration.(人们经常会问，哪一种语言最难学，因为要考虑的因素太多了，所以不容易回答)”可推知，世界上有太多的语言，所以很难说哪一种语言最难学。故选D。
2．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different, so first language can affect learning a second language.(例如，以西班牙语为母语的人会发现比以汉语为母语的人更容易学习葡萄牙语，因为葡萄牙语与西班牙语非常相似，而汉语则截然不同，所以第一语言会影响第二语言的学习)”可知，以葡萄牙语为母语的人会觉得西班牙语更容易学，因为它也使用罗马字母。故选C。
3．词义猜测题。根据第三段中“ Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role, as well as each learner’s motivation for learning.If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally, they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.(教师和学习语言的circumstances 以及每个学习者的学习动机也发挥着重要作用。如果人们学习一门语言是因为他们需要专业地使用它，他们通常比学习一门在日常生活中没有直接使用的语言更快)”可知，老师和学习环境，还有每个学者的学习动机，在学语言中也扮演着重要作用。故画线词意思是“一个特别的境况和环境”。故选A。
4．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Obviously, British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second hardest language is Japanese, which will probably come as no surprise to many, but the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian, which uses a similar alphabet to English but has 35 cases (forms of a nouns according to whether it is subject, object, genitive, etc). This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for everyone, but it causes British diplomatic personnel, who are generally used to learning languages, the most difficulty.(显然，英国外交官和其他大使馆工作人员发现，第二难的语言是日语，这对许多人来说可能并不奇怪，但他们发现问题最多的语言是匈牙利语，它使用与英语相似的字母表，但有35个格（名词的形式取决于它是主语、宾语、属格等）。这并不是说匈牙利语对每个人来说都是最难学的语言，但它让一般习惯学习语言的英国外交人员最困难)”可推知，不是匈牙利语的书写体系而是它的语法复杂性给本地英国学者带来麻烦。故选B。
5．C 6．D 7．D
【导语】本文是应用文。文章主要是关于学术新闻儿童记者团要招收2020~2021记者成员的要求的相关信息。
5．推理判断题。根据第三段“In order to be considered, you must be between the ages of 10~14”(要想被考虑，你必须在10-14岁之间)可知，这篇文章的读者应该是10-14岁的孩子们。故选C。
6．细节理解题。根据倒数第四段“Kid Reporters are chosen by Scholastic News Kids Press Corps editors, and the 2020~2021 Kid Reporter team will be announced in early November.”(儿童记者由学术新闻儿童记者团的编辑挑选，2020~2021年的儿童记者团队将在11月初宣布。)可知，学术新闻儿童记者团会在11月的时候公布招收结果，所以D选项这句话是正确的。故选D。
7．推理判断题。根据第一段“How to join the Scholastic News Kids Press Corps for the 2020~2021 school year ”(如何在2020~2021学年加入学术新闻儿童记者团？)可知，这篇文章是要为学术新闻儿童记者团招收2020~2021记者成员，下文是招收成员的具体要求，所以这是一篇海报。故选D。
8．C 9．D 10．A 11．C
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章是关于牛津词典的主编对表情符号的含义的见解。其中穿插了对表情符号的解读和之所以广泛使用的原因的讨论。
8．句意猜测题。根据第二段中“When one of his dictionary colleagues suggested using an emoji instead of the word ‘emoji’(当他的一位词典同事建议用一个表情符号来代替‘emoji’这个词时)”可知，Caspar Grathwohl的同事向他提出一个建议，结合本段最后一句“But I think there was a tipping point this year. It’s now moved into the mainstream.(但我认为今年出现了一个转折点。现在它已经成为主流)”可知，Caspar Grathwohl原本尽力避免使用表情符号，但是今年出现了转折，表情符号已经成为主流，由此可以得出他应是采纳了同事的建议，故选C项。
9．细节理解题。根据第三段中“It has overtaken the standard smiley-face emoji in popularity, which may mean that emoji users are moving towards exaggeration or irony or fun, or that all this emoji use has brought everyone to a higher emotional plane.(它的受欢迎程度已经超过了标准的笑脸表情符号，这可能意味着表情符号用户正朝着夸张、讽刺或有趣的方向发展，或者所有这些表情符号的使用把每个人都带到了一个更高的情感层面)”可知，“喜极而泣”的表情符号比笑脸符号更受欢迎，这意味着人们喜欢用更丰富的方式表达自己的情感。故选D项。
10．推理判断题。从第四段的“‘The meaning is coming from extra-language factors,’ he says. ‘Emojis are performing the same function in digital speech.’(‘意义来自于语言之外的因素。’他说。‘表情符号在数字讲话中发挥着同样的作用。’)”可知，Vyvyan Evans的意思是表情符号的意思来自于语言以外的东西，它的功能和数字语音一样，能表达语言背后的真实意思。故选A项。
11．推理判断题。 根据最后一段中“The fact that we are using emoji in combination to express more complex ideas and experiences is one of the most fun and playful parts of the whole words.(事实上，我们正在结合使用表情符号来表达更复杂的想法和体验，这是整个词汇中最有趣和好玩的部分之一)”可知，Grathwohl认为使用表情符号可以给交流增加乐趣。故选C项。

15．上文“For example, farmers used to take pigs to slaughterhouse along rivers on small boats. If it was foggy, people on the bank could only see the pigs’ heads above the fog. （例如，农民过去常常用小船把猪带到河边的屠宰场。如果有雾，岸上的人只能看到雾中猪的头。）”说明有雾的情况下，只能看到猪头。选项G“This made them look like they were flying through the clouds.（这使他们看起来像是在云层中飞行。）”承接上文的描述，看起来像是猪在云中飞。故选G项。
16．上文“Other countries also use animals to show impossibility. （其他国家也用动物来表示不可能。）”说明其他国家还有其他类似“when pigs fly ” 的短语，概括了本段的中心。下文“Other countries, such as France and Spain, use phrases like “when frogs grow hair or when hens grow teeth”.（其他国家，如法国和西班牙，则使用“当青蛙长头发或当母鸡长牙齿时”这样的短语。）”举例说明了类似“when pigs fly ” 的短语。选项F“For example, many countries use the phrase “when cows fly”.（例如，许多国家使用“when cows fly”这个短语。）”也是通过举例子的方式讲述了类似“when pigs fly ” 的短语，符合本段的中心。故选F项。
17．C 18．A 19．D 20．C 21．B 22．A 23．D 24．C 25．A 26．B 27．A 28．B 29．C 30．B 31．D

36．考查非谓语动词。句意：如果你以一种疯狂的方式跑来跑去——或者只是非常忙——你就被说成是像一只没头的鸡一样跑来跑去。介词with后宾语its head与cut之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词作宾语补足语。故填cut。

43．deadline##eadline
【详解】考查名词。句意：我们没能赶上最后期限是因为一个关键部件的制造延期了。此处缺少名词作动词meet的宾语，根据首字母提示和句意“最后期限”可知是deadline，此处为单数概念，故填deadline。
44．mood##ood

46．deadline

47．recited
【详解】考查动词。句意：在我哥哥的高中毕业典礼上，学生们朗诵了一首诗。空处是表示“朗诵”的动词，根据汉语提示，应填recite，本处讲述的是过去发生的事，应用一般过去式；the students 与recite之间是主动关系，应用主动态。故填recited。
48．sorrowing
【详解】考查动词时态。句意：她因失去心爱的宠物狗而悲伤。根据单词首字母以及汉语提示“对……感到悲伤”可知应填动词sorrow，作谓语，结合上文She was可知为过去进行时。故填sorrowing。
49．images
【详解】考查名词的数。句意：当我闭上眼睛的时候，我可以看到来自诗中的不同意象。表示“意象”为可数名词image，根据空前的different可知，要用复数。故填images。
50． made up of

【详解】考查固定短语。句意：当时我和她开始通信。根据汉语提示可知，空处可用短语enter into “开始”，通信用名词“correspondence”，enter into correspondence with sb.“开始和某人通信”。根据时间状语at that time可知，本句话为一般过去时态。“她”用宾格her，作介词的宾语。故填entered into correspondence with her。
53．thinking that all children like these things
【详解】考查现在分词作状语。句意：我们经常给孩子提供玩具，足球和篮球，我们认为孩子们都喜欢这些。根据分析可知，两个句子的主语一致，可以将其中一个改为分词作状语。主语为we，跟think之间的关系为主动，故可用现在分词doing做伴随状语，故答案是thinking that all children like these things。
【点睛】
54．The children who/that often watch TV learn fewer words than their peers.
【详解】考查定语从句。分析给出的两个句子可知，两句中都有提到“the children”，所以可以把其作为先行词，把第一个句子作为主句，第二个句子作为定语从句；先行词the children在第二个句中为主语，所以关系代词用who/that，故答案为：The children who/that often watch TV learn fewer words than their peers.
55．This is the adventure that I have been dreaming of .
【详解】考查名词、定语从句、现在完成进行时。根据汉语意思提示可知，表示“冒险之旅”为名词adventure；根据句意可知，该句可为定语从句对先行词adventure做出修饰，在该定语从句中，表示“梦寐以求”应为动词短语dream of；结合提示要求用现在完成进行时，可知，该定语从句应为that I have been dreaming of。其次根据句意可知，整句应为一般现在时。故翻译为：This is the adventure that I have been dreaming of。
56．I hope you will look at things without prejudice.
【详解】考查动词和介词。根据汉语提示，表示“我希望”应该用I hope，其后面接的是宾语从句；表示“看待问题”应该用look at things；表示“不要带有偏见”应该用介词短语without prejudice。句子描述的是将来发生的事情，故使用一般将来时。故翻译为I hope you will look at things without prejudice。
57．It’s so cold outside and if I could have a bowl of hot soup cooked by my mum right now, it would sure lift my mood immediately.
【详解】考查if引导的虚拟语气。分析所给中文提示词，“外面天气真冷”可译为“It’s so cold outside”，“要是现在能喝到一碗老妈煮的热汤，一定能立即提升我的心情。”根据句意可知，是对现在的一种假设，应该用if引导的虚拟语气，主句用主语＋would/should/might/could＋动词原形，从句用动词过去式，所以从句译为“if I could have a bowl of hot soup cooked by my mum right now”和前句是并列关系，中间用and连接，主句部分，根据题干要求“一定”需用副词“sure”，故译为“it would sure lift my mood immediately”。故译为：It’s so cold outside and if I could have a bowl of hot soup cooked by my mum right now, it would sure lift my mood immediately.

68．Possible version one:
Young Internet users are always coming up with new slang to differentiate themselves. But the rapidly developing Internet lingo, some people are concerned that it's ruining the Chinese language.
In my opinion, it's unnecessary for older generations to fear the use of slang is weakening the people's capability to write and remember Chinese characters. For one thing, new terms add variety to a language as they give a group of people a sense of belonging. For another, youth lingo, which is a source of identity for young people, has existed long before the Internet. As a matter of fact, youth lingo has not made the Chinese language disappear but has impacted the language.
To conclude, while language development is unavoidable, Chinese Internet lingo is unlikely to replace the existing use of Mandarin Chinese, but will rather be enriching it by adding another layer.
Possible Version two:
Nowadays, young people often create some new slangs to differentiate themselves. However, with the rapid development of Internet lingo, many critics, especially the seniors, believe that the emergence of such lingo will damage the foundation of Chinese language.
In my opinion, it is not necessary to worry about the new slang that will likely weaken the new generation’s capability of writing or remembering Chinese characters. There are two reasons. Firstly, the purpose of language is to convey ideas and share opinions. Thus, the prevailing youth lingo,as a more concise and efficient way of expression, is in fact an enrichment of modern Chinese language. Secondly, since every era has its own young generation,the youth lingo, can be a new identity for young people,cannot pollute or extinct Chinese language but by contrast, it may become an emblem or living fossil of this specific era.
To conclude, while language development is inevitable, Chinese internet lingo is unlikely to replace the existing use of Mandarin Chinese but will be enriching it by adding a new layer or dimension to it.

69． happened to know that houses
【详解】考查固定短语和定语从句。根据汉语意思提示以及提示词可知，第一部分为happen to do“碰巧做某事”，结合语境判断为一般过去时，“知道”表达为know；第二部分为that引导的限制性定语从句，先行词an organization在从句中作主语成分，谓语为houses“收留”。故答案分别填happened；to；know；that；houses。
70．where he was educated
【详解】考查从句、时态和语态。对比中英文句子，此处应用“他接受教育的”修饰名词college，可处理为定语从句；从句主语是he，谓语动词是educate，主谓之间是被动关系，且陈述过去的事情，故用一般过去时的被动语态；先行词是college，关系词代替它在从句中做地点状语，应用关系副词where引导从句。故填where he was educated。
