本题是细节推理题。题干是：准确性的定义是什么？选择A的依据是第一段最后一句：" speaking without errors of grammar and vocabulary”说话不犯语法错误和词汇错误。这与选项A的内容一致。所以选项A是正确答案。
本题是细节理解题。题干是：在“This willingness to take risks helps them speak more fluidly”句中fluidly的意思是什么？（第四段，第二行）。选择A的依据第四段的第一句：" On the other hand , there are those who really like to talk and are willing to try their language out even if they make mistakes.”另一方面，有一些人真的很喜欢说话，而且就算说错，他们也愿意试着说。这说明该段主要强调注重流利性多于准确性的人，所以依此推理fluidly是“流利的”意思。另外，也可以通过fluid作为名词液体的意思，借助一些名词加“ly”以后变成副词或者形容词这一常识推理出正确答案。所以选A。
本题是细节理解题。题干是：流利性和准确性哪个更重要？选择D的依据是，第五段的前两句：" The debate about which is more important一fluency or accuracy一in the English language has lasted for a long time.Still,one thing is clear:neither of them should be absent if one is to speak a language well.”说英语时流利重要还是准确重要，关于这个问题的辩论持续了很长时间。然而，有一点是明确的，即想要说好一门语言，流利性和准确性都不能少。作者似乎提出在文中提出了和题干一样的题，但后面的回答只是关于二者的必要性，而非就二者之间哪个更重要，所以D是正确答案。
本题是细节理解题。题干是：根据本文，哪个说法是正确的？ 选择D的依据是全文最后一句："The more you record yourself, the more confident and natural sounding you will become.”你自己录音越多，你就越有自信，你的英语听上去会更自然。所以选择与原文同义的选项D。
本题是细节推理题。题干是：在进行公共演讲时，谁会感到紧张、尴尬？选择B的依据是第三段的第二、三句：" People who tend to focus on accuracy may find that they worry too much about making mistakes.This can make them nervous or embarrassed about speaking English in public.”那些倾向于注重说话准确性的人可能会发现，他们太过担心犯错误。这可能导致他们在公众场合说英语感到紧张或尴尬。所以，选项B注重说话准确性的人，是正确答案。

本题问的是“两项声明与什么有关？”文章第一段提到“上周，美国参议院通过了两项声明。一项要求英语成为官方语言，另一项称其是统一的普通语言。”显然，这两项声明与英语的地位有关。
本题是细节考查题。本题问“在18世纪谁提出英语应该得到保护？”第四段提到了1780年即18世纪发生的事件。在这一段涉及的人物是选项B " John Adams "。
本题问“下列哪个选项与当前的这场讨论无关？”从句义来看，该问题似乎直接涉及文章主题，但选项均涉及细节信息：A“移民问题”;B“不断变化的人口统计”;C“新语言”;D“美国的军队实力”。前三个选项在文章中均可找到出处。选项A相关句说“引发这场讨论的一个原因是出于对移民问题的担心”，由此可见选项A与讨论相关，应该被排除。选项 B相关句说“引发它的另一个原因是对美国不断变化的人口统计数据的担心”，由此可见选项B与讨论相关，应该被排除。文章第六段说“Walt Wolfram说‘它更与很多美国人对新语言的不适相关’”,，因此选项C也与讨论相关，应该被排除掉。
本题问“根据2000年美国人口调查局的报告，下列哪个选项的说法正确？”从句义来看，该问题涉及文章中的细节信息，属于细节题。文章最后一段提到“According to the 2000 US Census Bureau report,of 209 million Americans over 18 years old,172 million speak only English at home"，显然选项C符合题意。
本题是词汇题。本题问“第四段的kicked around可被哪个词替换？"kicked around意为“讨论，议论”。选项A意为“发明”；选项B意为“构成，形成”；选项C意为“构成，塑造成”；选项D意为“讨论，议论”。

本题考查的是对所读材料大意与主旨的掌握以及抽象概括能力。本段谈到语言问题阻碍了思想与经济的交流，历朝政府都想解决这一问题。当前政府已经认识到解决语言问题的重要性，投入全力来对付。所以，该段的主题是tackling the language problem,.tackling的意思就是选项A的dealing with，故选A。
本题考查的是对所读材料大意与主旨的掌握。本段讲到关键问题是方言，方言使单一的书面语无法同读音相联系，中国人只好创立了一套与发音无关的系统，这造成了繁多的字符。可见问题的核心是方言。故选E。
本题考查的同样是对所读材料大意与主旨的掌握。本段讲汉字繁多，难于掌握，对比了中国孩子与讲英语的孩子学习阅读的进度，反衬出汉语之难学。故选B。
