Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
When I was ten years old, I went to the US to visit some family friends.We travelled all the way from California to Las Vegas.I noticed something funny about the way everyone spoke English.I was thinking, “This is the way they speak in films!”
At the beginning of the holiday, one of my friends asked me if I wanted to order “French fries”. I couldn’t imagine what French fries were. She was amazed that I had never tried them and she ordered a portion for us to share.When the waiter brought us some chips, I asked her where the French fries were.She pointed to the plate of chips! Later that week she said she was going to buy some “chips” from the supermarket.She came out with a packet of crisps!
During that holiday we were also offered “biscuits and gravy” with our lunch.This was a very strange idea to me, because in England biscuits are sweet.Gravy is a salty, meat-based sauce.I later realized that “biscuits” in America are savoury snacks.What we call “biscuits”, they call “cookies”.
One day, I saw an “eggplant” pizza on the menu in a restaurant! Eggs do not grow on plants, I thought.What on earth could an “eggplant” be? Something eggy and leafy? My dad ordered this pizza and it was covered in aubergines.I asked him where the “eggplant” was.He laughed and pointed to the aubergines.He told me, “They call this ‘eggplant’ in America!”
Although the same “language” may be spoken in different countries, there are likely to be many differences, not just in vocabulary but also in spelling, grammar and pronunciation! I think part of the excitement of learning a language is discovering the differences in how it is spoken in different places.
1.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A.Holiday is a good time to relax.
B.French fries are popular worldwide.
C.The waiter provided poor service.
D.Chips and crisps are the same food.
2.Where does the author most probably come from?
A.America. B.France.
C.England. D.Italy.
3.How did the author feel when seeing an “eggplant” pizza on the menu?
A.Excited. B.Regretful.
C.Anxious. D.Confused.
4.What is the text mainly about?
A.Advantages of travelling.
B.High-end restaurants.
C.Food and tradition.
D.Cross-cultural misunderstanding.

In October 2019, Beijing Daily warned the youth that they shouldn’t let Internet slang (俚语) deepen the generation gap (代沟), after People Daily started a discussion on Chinese microblog Weibo on how to “explain” the youth’s Internet slang terms to parents.The post got 40,000 likes.People were commenting that they couldn’t keep up with the rapidly developing Internet lingo (术语) in China.
People also fear that Chinese Internet slang will negatively influence broader linguistic (语言的) trends of Mandarin Chinese, in particular, the gradual taking over of pinyin, the romanization of traditional Chinese characters using the Western alphabet.As pinyin gets widely used when people text or write on mobile phones or computers, while less and less people write characters by hand, people gradually forget how to write them, which is called “character amnesia” in China.
2019’s latest slang terms add a further simplification: the use of pinyin acronyms.“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.“Nsdd” stands for ni shuo de dui (you’re right).
Certainly, as an age-old written language, Chinese has been evolving and developing over the years.But the Chinese Internet lingo is unlikely to replace the existing use of Mandarin Chinese, but will rather be enriching it by adding another layer.
Acronyms aren’t new.They have appeared with the limited space available in early-generation cell phone messaging.Some of them have become a part of the English language, such as BTW (by the way) and LOL (laugh out loud), while others had a rather short lifetime.That’s likely to be what’s going to happen with China’s Internet slang terms.Some are going to be old in a few weeks, while others might make it into mainstream use, and as they do, young Internet users are coming up with new slang words to differentiate themselves.
In China, using Internet slang means belonging to a certain generation that likes to watch the same talk shows, play the same games, etc., and therefore, creates unity.Older generations don’t have to feel left out, and certainly don’t have to fear a degradation (没落) of the Chinese language.While language development is unavoidable, Internet slang is not going to let 6,000 years of Chinese written language completely change overnight.
5.Why are the public worried about Chinese Internet slang abuse?
A.Because it’s used by children to keep secrets from parents.
B.Because it can cause confusion even among young people.
C.Because it was invented in response to the limited messaging space.
D.Because it will rarely have a positive effect on linguistic trends of Chinese.
6.How do Chinese Internet slang terms affect the Chinese language?
A.They add variety to the language.
B.They are replacing its traditional vocabulary.
C.They make the language more global.
D.They only have temporary effects on Chinese.
7.By using Internet slang in China, what may people get?
A.A sense of purpose.
B.A sense of group identity.
C.A sense of cultural pride.
D.A sense of safety.
8.Which could be the best title for the passage?
A.Is Media Helping Older Generation Understand Internet Slang?
B.Is Chinese Language Too Powerful to Be Largely Affected?
C.Is Mandarin Chinese Useful to Bridge the Generation Gap?
D.Is Internet Slang Deepening the Generation Gap, Ruining Chinese?
C
For years, learning to speak Cantonese was not that hard in San Francisco.It is a place where Cantonese speakers from South China have moved for over 150 years.But now, there is fear that the Cantonese language and culture might not survive present social changes.Cantonese is spoken by some 85 million people worldwide.In comparison, there are around 1 billion Mandarin (or Putonghua) speakers.
In Britain, as in the US, most schools that offer Chinese usually teach Mandarin.As a result, many families are struggling to find ways to pass on their Cantonese language and culture.Ceci Pang runs classes for children at Rainbow Seeds Cantonese School in London.“Many parents want their kids to be able to communicate with their grandparents,” she said.“It’s just so hard here, there are so few learning resources and lots of parents get upset.That’s usually the point the parents come to me.”
In China, there are Cantonese television programs as well as Cantonese announcements on public transport.In Hong Kong, however, Cantonese remains the city’s top language.It is used by 90 per cent of the population according to an assistant professor at the Education University of Hong Kong.
It is a different story in the US. The teaching of Cantonese has decreased somewhat, including in San Francisco, a city that has drawn many Cantonese speakers over the years.The San Francisco school system has Cantonese and Mandarin programs for younger students.But in high school, Mandarin is the only Chinese language available.This spring, some independent Chinese schools are helping to teach the language as Cantonese-speaking communities grow.Aleyda Poe has been managing the Cantonese kindergarten at Merit Chinese School in Plano, Texas, for more than 10 years.Poe put her two sons in the school so that they could learn about Cantonese language and culture.Now, she is helping other families do the same.
9.What are the Cantonese speakers worried about?
A.Survival of Cantonese language and culture.
B.Increasing social changes in San Francisco.
C.More and more Mandarin speakers worldwide.
D.Less Cantonese speakers in South China.
10.How does Ceci Pang help to handle Cantonese learning in London?
A.By visiting and talking with local families.
B.By organizing language classes for kids.
C.By reducing Chinese culture teaching at schools.
D.By using unlimited online resources.
11.What is implied about Cantonese learning both in China and the US?
A.San Francisco is a city with the most Cantonese learners.
B.Cantonese is learnt by 90 per cent of the population in China.
C.Learning resources and opportunities are limited in the US.
D.There are no Cantonese learning programs in San Francisco.
12.Which can be the suitable title for the text?
A.Importance to Improve Cantonese Learning Globally
B.Current Status of Cantonese Learning Overseas
C.A Brief Introduction to Cantonese Learning History in the US.
D.Debates Between Cantonese and Mandarin Learning
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Here is some good advice on how to be good at a language.
Pen pals.This way of learning a language is a great way to use your new language.You have to use the language a lot; at the same time, you don’t have to give your pen pals an answer at once. 13 You can choose to use the old letter writing way or the much quicker and easier e-mail way to keep in contact with your pen pal.
Internet radio. 14 There are Internet radio stations for every major language.Just find these radio stations and listen to them.You’ll be surprised at how many stations there are all over the world.
Language clubs.When you are ready to practice your new language, try to find a language club in your area. 15 This will give you a chance to use the language in a suitable environment. 16
Find suitable places.Put yourself in situations where you have to speak the language that you are learning. 17 If you are learning German, you can find a German restaurant.Try to read the menu, try to order something or just say “hello” to the people there.You will probably find them to be very helpful and you may even make a few friends out of it.
A.Speaking with other people can be very helpful.
B.Another great and easy way is to listen to your new language in real life.
C.So you will be more comfortable this way.
D.They will also give you lots of useful advice on learning a new language.
E.How about going to a restaurant?
F.Doing more exercise can be very interesting.
G.Learning a new language can give you much knowledge.

3.D 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的What on earth could an “eggplant” be? Something eggy and leafy?可知,当看到菜单上的“茄子”比萨时,作者感到困惑。
4.D 主旨大意题。文章讲述了作者在十岁时去美国游玩的经历。在游玩期间,作者在美国经历了英式英语和美式英语在词汇、拼写、语法和发音上的不同。由此可知,这篇文章的主要内容是跨文化误解。

5.D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的People also fear that Chinese Internet slang will negatively influence broader linguistic (语言的) trends of Mandarin Chinese可知,公众担心网络俚语是因为它很少对汉语的语言发展趋势产生积极的影响。

参考范文:
Dear Ms Chen,
I’m Li Hua, one of your students.Recently, I have noticed that many of our classmates have not actively participated or engaged in the English morning reading.I think it would be a good idea to find a student who has a good English pronunciation and ask the students to read English words or texts after him or her so that they can read the English words and pronounce them accurately.Besides, it’s best to get the opinions of other students.
I would appreciate it if you would make some changes to the English morning reading classes, in which case, I believe that we students will be more and more enthusiastic about learning English and our grades will get better and better in the future.
Yours,
Li Hua

【用法】
完全倒装是把整个谓语放到主语之前,主语必须是名词,如果主语是人称代词则不能进行完全倒装。常使用完全倒装的情况:
(1)以副词here, there, out, in, up, down, away, then, now等开头,后面的动词是be, come, exist, fall, follow, go, lie, remain, seem, stand (表示移动或动态的不及物动词)等时,句子使用完全倒装。
(2)there引出完全倒装句,除了最常见的there be句型以外,there还可以接appear, exist, lie, remain, seem to be, stand等,一般都表示“有”的含义,句子使用完全倒装。
(3)表示方位的状语位于句首,谓语动词是不及物动词,如 lie, stand, sit, exist 等或系动词 be,且主语是名词时,句子使用完全倒装。
(4)有时为了表示强调,可将谓语部分的现在分词、过去分词置于句首,句子使用完全倒装。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
When I was ten years old, I went to the US to visit some family
friends.We travelled all the way from California to Las Vegas.I noticed
something funny about the way everyone spoke English.I was thinking,
“This is the way they speak in films!”
At the beginning of the holiday, one of my friends asked me if I
wanted to order “French fries”. I couldn’t imagine what French fries
were. She was amazed that I had never tried them and she ordered a
portion for us to share.When the waiter brought us some chips, I asked
her where the French fries were.She pointed to the plate of chips! Later
that week she said she was going to buy some “chips” from the
supermarket.She came out with a packet of crisps!
During that holiday we were also offered “biscuits and gravy” with
our lunch.This was a very strange idea to me, because in England
biscuits are sweet.Gravy is a salty, meat-based sauce.I later realized that
“biscuits” in America are savoury snacks.What we call “biscuits”,
they call “cookies”.
One day, I saw an “eggplant” pizza on the menu in a restaurant!
Eggs do not grow on plants, I thought.What on earth could an
“eggplant” be? Something eggy and leafy? My dad ordered this pizza
and it was covered in aubergines.I asked him where the “eggplant”
was.He laughed and pointed to the aubergines.He told me, “They call
this ‘eggplant’ in America!”
Although the same “language” may be spoken in different
countries, there are likely to be many differences, not just in vocabulary
but also in spelling, grammar and pronunciation! I think part of the
excitement of learning a language is discovering the differences in how it is
spoken in different places.

In October 2019, Beijing Daily warned the youth that they
shouldn’t let Internet slang (俚语) deepen the generation gap (代
沟), after People Daily started a discussion on Chinese microblog
Weibo on how to “explain” the youth’s Internet slang terms to
parents.The post got 40,000 likes.People were commenting that they
couldn’t keep up with the rapidly developing Internet lingo (术语) in
China.
People also fear that Chinese Internet slang will negatively influence
broader linguistic (语言的) trends of Mandarin Chinese, in
particular, the gradual taking over of pinyin, the romanization of
traditional Chinese characters using the Western alphabet.As pinyin gets
widely used when people text or write on mobile phones or computers,
while less and less people write characters by hand, people gradually
forget how to write them, which is called “character amnesia” in
China.
2019’s latest slang terms add a further simplification: the use of
pinyin acronyms.“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.“Nsdd” stands for ni shuo de dui (you’re right).
Certainly, as an age-old written language, Chinese has been
evolving and developing over the years.But the Chinese Internet lingo is
unlikely to replace the existing use of Mandarin Chinese, but will rather
be enriching it by adding another layer.
Acronyms aren’t new.They have appeared with the limited space
available in early-generation cell phone messaging.Some of them have
become a part of the English language, such as BTW (by the way)
and LOL (laugh out loud), while others had a rather short
lifetime.That’s likely to be what’s going to happen with China’s
Internet slang terms.Some are going to be old in a few weeks, while
others might make it into mainstream use, and as they do, young
Internet users are coming up with new slang words to differentiate
themselves.
In China, using Internet slang means belonging to a certain
generation that likes to watch the same talk shows, play the same
games, etc., and therefore, creates unity.Older generations don’t
have to feel left out, and certainly don’t have to fear a degradation (没
落) of the Chinese language.While language development is
unavoidable, Internet slang is not going to let 6,000 years of Chinese
written language completely change overnight.

For years, learning to speak Cantonese was not that hard in San
Francisco.It is a place where Cantonese speakers from South China have
moved for over 150 years.But now, there is fear that the Cantonese
language and culture might not survive present social changes.Cantonese
is spoken by some 85 million people worldwide.In comparison, there are
around 1 billion Mandarin (or Putonghua) speakers.
In Britain, as in the US, most schools that offer Chinese usually
teach Mandarin.As a result, many families are struggling to find ways to
pass on their Cantonese language and culture.Ceci Pang runs classes for
children at Rainbow Seeds Cantonese School in London.“Many parents
want their kids to be able to communicate with their grandparents,” she
said.“It’s just so hard here, there are so few learning resources and
lots of parents get upset.That’s usually the point the parents come to
me.”
In China, there are Cantonese television programs as well as
Cantonese announcements on public transport.In Hong Kong,
however, Cantonese remains the city’s top language.It is used by 90
per cent of the population according to an assistant professor at the
Education University of Hong Kong.
It is a different story in the US. The teaching of Cantonese has
decreased somewhat, including in San Francisco, a city that has drawn
many Cantonese speakers over the years.The San Francisco school system
has Cantonese and Mandarin programs for younger students.But in high
school, Mandarin is the only Chinese language available.This spring,
some independent Chinese schools are helping to teach the language as
Cantonese-speaking communities grow.Aleyda Poe has been managing
the Cantonese kindergarten at Merit Chinese School in Plano, Texas,
for more than 10 years.Poe put her two sons in the school so that they
could learn about Cantonese language and culture.Now, she is helping
other families do the same.

try to find a language club in your area. 15 This will give you a chance
to use the language in a suitable environment. 16
Find suitable places.Put yourself in situations where you have to
speak the language that you are learning. 17 If you are learning
German, you can find a German restaurant.Try to read the menu, try to
order something or just say “hello” to the people there.You will
probably find them to be very helpful and you may even make a few
friends out of it.

参考范文:
Dear Ms Chen,
I’m Li Hua, one of your students.Recently, I have noticed that
many of our classmates have not actively participated or engaged in the
English morning reading.I think it would be a good idea to find a student
who has a good English pronunciation and ask the students to read English
words or texts after him or her so that they can read the English words and
pronounce them accurately.Besides, it’s best to get the opinions of
other students.
I would appreciate it if you would make some changes to the English
morning reading classes, in which case, I believe that we students will
be more and more enthusiastic about learning English and our grades will
get better and better in the future.
Yours,
Li Hua
谢谢观看!
