    A

    Fairy tales.

    B

    American idioms.

    C

    American slang.


    正确答案： C
    解析： 由David Burke的话So I got this idea. What if I took a fairy tale, Cinderella?可知，他利用童话故事来教美国孩子学习外语。
    【录音原文】
    　　David Burke is known as Slangman, and in his earlier books, he translated the language of American teenagers for an older generation, and deciphered American idioms for English-language learners overseas. His latest effort targets American children who know little of foreign languages. He has written a series of books based on the observation that fairy tales are widely known across cultures. “So I got this idea. What if I took a fairy tale, Cinderella? We start it in the native language of the reader. So, let’s say in English for the American market. So we start in English, and as the reader moves forward, the story starts to morph into another language.’’

    In the foreign languages bookstoreto be found books in various languages.


    A.is

    B.is been

    C.are

    D.are been

    答案：C
    解析：
    考查倒装句和主谓一致。当表示地点的介词短语位于句首时，句子要用全倒装。In theforeign languages bookstore为表示地点的介词短语，放在了句首，故需将句子的主谓倒装。因为主语是books，故排除A、B，没有“系动词+been”这种形式。故D项错误。原句正常语序为Books in various languages are to befound in the foreign languages bookstore。句意为“在外语书店里可以找到各种语言的书”。故选C。

  • 第15题：

    In a teaching training, David Nunanasked a question: "What do you do?" One of the audiences answered: "I teach English." David Nunansaid: "No, you teachkids." What do you do think of Nunan′s reply? Write a composition inEnglish of no less than 150 words without any personal information.


    答案：
    解析：
    What Do YouTeach, English or Kids? What Nunan saidtruly triggered me a lot. It is universally acknowledged that there are twoimportant and prevalent forms of class--teacher-centered and students-centered.In China, most of the classes are teacher-centered. Teachers spend a lot ofclass time speaking, while students are busy listening to their teachers ortaking notes, so that their thinking time is reduced or even ignored, which isnot good for their comprehensive development.
    "You teachkids" means as a teacher we should have more time to think about thestudents and know more about their characteristics, knowledge level, interestsand so on. Thus, A students-centered class should be highly praised and widelyused by every qualified teacher instead of paying attention to the subject orteachers themselves, which are more advantageous than the former one. Firstly,the students are more likely to concentrate their minds and be enthusiastictowards class in which they can participate and interact more. Secondly, thestudents will be more active and willing to cooperate better with theirteacher, and the teacher can get the feed backs through their students' correspondingresponses and improve his teaching and choose the optimum teaching methodsaccordingly. Thirdly, autonomous learning and creative thinking abilities canbe cultivated. They can share or express their own opinions freely in theclass.
    In a word, I firmlyagree with Nunan' s viewpoint that teachers should attach more importance tothe kids and the students-centered class needs to be encouraged.

    问答题
    ◆Topic 9：Keeping Variety of Language and Culture　　Questions for Reference:　　1) What is the reason for losing a variety of language and culture?　　2) What are the solutions to the problem of languages and culture dying?　　3) What’s the most important thing we should do to save our language and cult/are from now on?

    正确答案： 【参考答案】
    Nowadays, international communication has become more and more important, people prefer to communicate in languages, such as English, Arabic and Chinese. But many of the world’s languages and culture are dying out. In my presentation I will examine the problem of languages and culture, dying and the solutions, such as writing books and increasing language population levels.
    Firstly, as the technology improves, people around the world are relying more and more on electronic devices to communicate with each other. While this trend is helping the major culture, it is having a harmful effect on the minor culture that could be swallowed up by the major culture.
    Secondly, some of the world’s languages are not being learned widely by children or used in daily commerce. In some boarding schools, children were punished for speaking their parent’s language. Despite the desires of language and culture activists, the outlook is somewhat grim.
    People already realize this problem exists and are trying to solve it. For one solution, people can record the culture and languages on books or tapes, making sure our descendants can learn or use them in the future.
    The second solution is increasing the language population levels. Governments can make some policies, like encouragement for people to learn and teach the languages facing extinction, no matter whether the language is used in daily commerce or not. By trying to keep them alive, at least they have a future as second languages.
    The important thing is to learn the elder’s tongue and culture before it’s too late. Otherwise we will lose them.
