English
World Language
Once people (1) a language that everybody in the world could understand. Now, for the (2) time in human history, perhaps there is one﹣﹣English. It is the official language in more than 50 countries and 250﹣300 million people (3) it as a second language. Some say that half the world will be speaking it in the year 2050.
Difficult to Master?
English is not the (4) language to learn﹣most of its common verbs are irregular and it has a large vocabulary﹣at least 200, 000 words are in common use.
User﹣friendly
But some things make (5) easy. For example, nouns don't have gender(性别) and the usages of verbs are simpler than other languages. There is (6) one form to speak to someone directly﹣"you". Adjectives don't agree(7) nouns, and many nouns are often also verbs.
English Is Everywhere
Some other languages may have more speakers, like Chinese. But English (8) in many different areas. It is the language of transport: most airline pilots and air﹣traffic controllers use it. At (9) English is the international language of communication.
The Future of English
What is the future of English as a global language? Will (10) language ever replace it? Many think not﹣it is already too popular.
9.Tina likes (India) food very much.
10.Two (五分之二)of the students in our class are from the countryside.

三.阅读理解(共1小题)
15.As an English,I can speak three languages﹣English,German and French,so do you think the British people are very good language learners?The fact is that they aren't.
Some statistics (数据) from the survey done by the European Commission (欧盟委员会)showed that 62% of the British people only speak English.38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more.Compared with the British people,56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more.From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.
And the survey also showed that English is the most widely﹣spoken foreign language.Many European people can have a conversation in English.That's why many people don't think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.
In Britain,students are not required to learn a foreign language.That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school.In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14.So why don't students continue learning foreign languages at school?Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.
To solve this situation,the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school.One way is to start learning it at a much younger age.Another one is to give school children more choices.
Changing the British attitude (态度) to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try!

参考答案与试题解析
一.选择题(共7小题)
1.﹣﹣Can I your bike?
﹣﹣With pleasure.But you mustn't it to others.( )
A.lend,borrow B.borrow,lend
C.lend,lend D.borrow,borrow
【分析】我可以借你的自行车吗?﹣﹣我很愿意.但是你不能把它借给别人.
【解答】答案:B.考查动词词义辨析.句意:我可以借你的自行车吗?﹣﹣我很愿意.但是你不能把它借给别人.borrow表示借进来,borrow sth from sb向某人借东西.lend表示借出去,lend sth to sb把东西借给某人.根据题干Can I your bike?﹣With pleasure.But you mustn't it to others.可知第一空表示借入,第二空表示借出.故选B.
【点评】理解各个选项的含义,根据具体内容作答.
2.Every day,he gets up early ______ he can catch the first bus.( )
A.because B.since C.when D.so that
【分析】每天,他起的很早,以便他能赶上第一班公共汽车.
【解答】答案:D.考查连词辨析.句意:每天,他起的很早,以便他能赶上第一班公共汽车.because因为;since自…以来;when当…时候;so that以便.根据题干Every day,he gets up early ______ he can catch the first bus.可知so that引导目的状语从句,即以便他能赶上第一班公共汽车.故选D.
【点评】仔细分析句子的结构,掌握一些固定用法,根据具体内容作答.
3.﹣Celia,join us in the Super Summer Camp if it ____this weekend.
﹣I'd love to.But nobody knows if it ______.( )
A.is fine; rains
B.is fine; will rain
C.will be fine; will rain
D.will be fine; rains
【分析】﹣﹣Celia,如果这个周末天气好的话,就和我们一起去参加超级夏令营吧.
﹣﹣我很想去,但是没人知道会不会下雨.
【解答】答案:B.
根据join us in the Super Summer Camp if it ____this weekend,可知这里if引导一个条件状语从句,主句是一个祈使句,从句用一般现在时,所以应该用is fine;再根据But nobody knows if it,可知这里是if引导的宾语从句,主句是一般现在时,从句可以用所需要的时态,这里说的是this weekend这个周末的事情,应该是还没有发生,所以时态应该用一般将来时,构成:will+动词原形.故选B.
【点评】本题考查时态辨析.做此题目可根据句中的时间状语或句中的动词形式.也可根据语境,判断时态,从而选出正确的形式完成此类题.
4. Jack was a little disappointed,he still went on with his work.( )
A.Although B.Because C.Since D.If
【分析】尽管Jack有点失望,但他仍然继续工作.
【解答】答案:A 根据意思 Jack was a little disappointed Jack有点失望,he still went on with his work 他仍然继续工作,可知前后句存在让步关系,所以用although引导让步状语从句.意思是尽管,虽然;Because因为,Since既然,if如果,B,C,D 都不合题意故选:A。
【点评】考查从属连词的用法,首先要知道所给答案中从属连词的汉语意思,然后根据语境逐个试答案,排除不合适的答案.
5.A woman with a young boy_____getting into Uncle's car.( )
A.is B.are C.has
【分析】一个带着小男孩的妇女正在上叔叔的车.
【解答】答案:A
with a young boy是伴随状语,不影响主语a woman,所以谓语部分用单数;此句时态是现在进行时,所以用is,故选A.
【点评】本题考查主谓一致,先弄清主语是什么,再根据时态确定谓语,然后选择正确答案.
6.Chinese ______ in many schools around the world.Many people love to learn it.( )
A.teaches B.is teaching
C.has taught D.is taught
【分析】世界上很多学校开设汉语课,很多人喜欢学习汉语.
【解答】答案:D.
首先根据语境推测句意是"世界上很多学校开设汉语课,很多人喜欢学习汉语.",句子表述的是一般性的事实,所以用一般现在时,主语Chinese 是动作teach 的承受者,所以用被动语态,一般现在时被动语态的构成是:主语+am/is/are+动词的过去分词,主语是不可数名词,be动词用is,故选D.
【点评】本题考查时态和语态.每个时态都有标志词,熟记这些标志词是做题的关键.在没有时间状语的情况下可以根据语境来对时态做出判断.判断语态的关键则是观察主语是谓语动词的执行者还是承受者.
7.In Singapore,more than three quarters of the population are Chinese.( )
A.one third B.two third
C.three fourths D.three fifths
【分析】在新加坡,超过四分之三的人口是中国人.
【解答】答案:C.
首先明确每个选项的意思,A:三分之一; C:四分之三;D:五分之三;选项B分数表示错误,根据语境推测句意是"在新加坡,超过四分之三的人口是中国人.",即划线短语的意思是"四分之三",相当于选项C中的短语,故选C.
【点评】了解每个选项的含义是做好此类题型的关键,还要从句意着手,根据句意作出解答;所以,平时的学习中要多进行积累词汇,才能很好的完成.
