In a society where life continues year after year with few changes, the languages do not change either. The earliest known languages had difficult grammar but a small, limited vocabulary. Over the century, the grammar changed, and the vocabulary grew. For example, the English and Spanish people who came to America during the sixteenth century gave names to all the new plants and animals they found. In this way, hundreds of new words were introduced into English and Spanish vocabularies. Today life is changing very fast, and language is changing fast too. There are several major language families in the world. Some scientists say there are nine main families, but other scientists divided them differently. The languages in each family are connected, and scientists think that they came from the same parent language. About 3% of the people in the world speak languages that are not in these major families. 6. The early language had many words and easy grammar.A. T B. F7. In the next few hundred years we can expect language to change a great deal.A. T B. F8. This article shows that language changes with changes in society.A. T B. F9. From this article we can know that language will become easier and easier.A. T B. F10. The first English and Spanish people arrived in America more than 400-500 years ago. A. T B.

Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy.One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new things. But usually people dont like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think.11.

Besides studying, we should also enjoy a good life in our spare time. There are many ways of spending the spare time. My ways are as follows:First of all, I spend about half of my spare time listening to music. In this way, I can thoroughly relax myself both physically and mentally; thus, I am able to study well in the future. Secondly, I spend part of my spare time doing some exercises. Basketball is my favorite game. Jogging will keep me fit. Finally, reading is necessary. A good book can take me to a mysterious place where I have never been to.These are the major ways I spend my spare time. Of course, I won't forget “Time is money. After my spare time, I will come to study at once.解题及分析一、交际用语1. 答复“Do you mind这种问句时,本句中的Yes表示介意,No表示不介意。A项 “Yes, please.前后冲突,please意为“请关窗户; C项的错误同A项类似;D项不符合题意;B项意为“不介意,请随意,所以选择B。2. 前者在问“外面的天气怎样?,后者应描绘详细的天气状况。A项和D项不符合题意。B项的描绘是气候,而不是天气。所以选择C。3. 效劳员在问“您想要甜点吗? B项和C项均不符合题意。和A项比较而言,D项为最正确答案,该项说出了想要点的东西,所以选择D。4. 对别人的好心告诫,要表示谢意。A项意为“一点也不;B项意为“当然。别客气;C项意为“我一会儿回来;D项是“谢谢,我会当心的。所以选择D。5. 前者说“不要发出噪音。后者表示“会像老鼠一样宁静,即不会发出噪音,所以选择D。二、阅读理解6. 依据第一段的第三句话可知,早期的语言语法难、词汇量小。该陈述推断错误,所以选择B。7. 第一段的最终一句话告知我们,语言随着生活的巨变而巨变。该陈述推断正确,所以选择A。8. 文章说明语言是随着社会的开展而改变的。该陈述推断正确,所以选择A。9. 从全文可知,假设社会停滞不前,语言就很难发生改变,所以语言的改变既可以很缓慢也可以很快速。该陈述推断错误,所以选择B。10. 在16世纪第一批英国人和西班牙人来到美洲,距今400500年。该陈述推断正确,所以选择A。11. 文章提到 “The renting of home furnishings (beds,tables,dishes,and so on) has become one of Americas fastest growing businesses。但本质上是对文章中心的理解实力。文章的中心讲的就是租家具这一社会现象:包括何种人情愿租、其缘由是什么以及人们对这一现象的相识。所以选择D。12. B项只答复了问题的一部分,因此B项是错误的。D项过于笼统,文章提到 “they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy。 A项在文章中并未提到。所以选择C。13. 从文章的第一部分可知,这对夫妇此前还没有想过租家具,可见在他们的家乡,这种做法还不流行。文章的最终(The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new,and they are not sure what their neighbors might think.)讲了这种观念还很新,但并没有说这种观念不被人承受,因此A项是错误的。C项过于片面,除了没有多少钱的人想租家具,还有其别人,如做国际业务的人、驻外的政府官员、外国留学生、飞机工作人员等也都租家具。D项在文中未提到。所以选择B。14. B项(一种获得家具的新途径)既概括了主题,又有吸引力。而D项(一种新观念)过于笼统,不相宜。有些考生选择A,是因为他们没有真正弄懂中心,事实上文章的重点在于租家具这一观念,而不是买不买家具的问题。所以选择B。15. 从文中第二段可以看出,年轻人喜爱租家具是因为他们没有太多的钱而且也不想买廉价的家具。所以选择D。三、词汇及构造16. It may be + 一段时间 + before 的意思是“过才,本句的意思是“科学家说或许要五年或者十年后才可能在人体上测试该药。所以选择B。17. 这句话意思是:在独立斗争之前,美国是英国的殖民地。其它选项不符合题意,所以选择A。18. 考察时态。这句话意思是:当 Lily 昨天下午五点回家时,妈妈正在厨房里做晚饭。这是过去进展时。所以选择B。19. 此题考察词组辨析。此句的意思是“通常我们对全部试验都要记录,以便可以有足够的数据。A项意为“整体来说;C项意为“平均;D项意为“尽一切方法;B项意为“通常,按例,所以选择B。20. 考察如今完成时态。“约翰的父亲自从哈佛高校毕业后就始终在这所学校教书。这种状态从过去始终持续到如今,句子要用如今完成时,所以选择C。四、完型填空 21. 考察句及句之间的逻辑关系。这个并列句只有用转折连接词but连接才符合句意,即“对游客来说学习他国的语言将是很困难的;但是,他为学好这门语言所付出的努力在他一踏上这个国土就能体会到了。所以选择B。22. 考察词组搭配。order a meal的意思是“点菜;订餐。所以选择C。23. “对某人来说做某事。所以选择D。24. 考察定语从句。在定语从句中主语要用关系代词who替代。所以选择E。25. 考察词组搭配。a trip to+地点“到某地去旅行。所以选择A。
