【解题导语】 当一个母语是英语的人听到一个人说着蹩脚的英语时是什么感受?厌烦还是耐心倾听?本文就此问题进行了讨论。
1.broken 解析:考查词性转换。句意:似乎蹩脚的英语让他们感到厌烦。修饰名词用形容词,故填动词break的形容词形式broken,意为“蹩脚的;不流利的”。
2.on/upon 解析:考查介词。句意:我认为这要取决于英语为母语的人。depend on/upon是固定搭配,意为“依赖;取决于”。故填on/upon。
3.easily 解析:考查词性转换。句意:有些人就是容易生气。设空处修饰动词,要用副词,故填easily。
4.attempting 解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:当我听到有人努力说英语时,我很耐心是因为我知道用非母语交流是多么不容易。此处为“hear+宾语+宾补”结构,attempt与宾语之间为逻辑上的主动关系,且此处指听到有人正在努力说英语,故用现在分词作宾补。故填attempting。
5.how 解析:考查宾语从句。句意见上一题解析。此处为感叹句用作宾语从句,用于加强语气。设空处修饰形容词difficult,故填how。
6.to learn 解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:我也知道英语很难学,那增加了我对他们的努力的尊重。在“it is+adj.+to do...”句型中,it是形式主语,动词不定式(短语)作真正的主语,故填to learn。
7.tables 解析:考查名词单复数。句意:如果我正在人超级多的一天招待顾客,且真的需要做很多件不同的事情,我可能会因不得不等待在点餐时纠结不已的人而感到心烦意乱。wait tables是固定短语,意为“招待顾客”。故填tables。
8.needed 解析:考查动词的时态。句意见上一题解析。根据并列连词and可知,前后时态应该一致,故填过去式needed。
9.possibility 解析:考查词性转换。句意:也存在这样的可能性,有些烦恼不是真的烦恼。定冠词the后接名词形式,且根据谓语动词exists可知,应填形容词possible的名词形式possibility。
10.but/yet 解析:考查连词。句意:听非母语的讲话者说话时,我可能紧皱着眉头,但那是因为我在聚精会神地努力去听懂他。根据句意可知,前后文是转折关系。故填but/yet。
