Nowadays, most of the Web is inaccessible(不能接触的)to most people in the world bI want to translate the Web into every major language: every webpage, every video, and,yes, even Justin Bieber s tweets.Nowadays, most of the Web is inaccessible(不能接触的)to most people in the world because its content splits up into hundreds of languages with over 50% of it in English.This problem is pressing, now more than ever, with millions of people from China, Russia,Latin America and other quickly developing regions entering the Web.There are certainly systems (like Google translate) that are improving every day at translating the gist of things written in other languages than English. Unfortunately, they are not yet accurate enough: even when what they spit out is intelligible(智能的),it’s so badly written that people cant read more than a few lines before getting a headache.This is why a new project called Duo lingo is introduced here. Duo lingo aims at breaking the language barrier, and thus making the Web truly”world wide.”The idea behind Duo lingo is to kill two birds with one stone by solving both of these problems simultaneously. It is accomplished by transforming language translation into something that anyone can do一not just bilinguals一and that millions of people want to do: learning a foreign language. It is estimated that over one billion people worldwide are learning a foreign language, with millions doing so using computer programs.With Duo lingo, people learn and translate a foreign language at the same time. When you learn on Duo lingo, the website gives you exercises set specifically for you that teach you every aspect of the new language. You may be asked to translate a sentence, to pronounce or listen to a phrase, or to describe what you see in an image. In this way, Duo lingo produces translations that are as accurate as those from professional language translators.26. What does the author want to do?().A. Business communication.B.

    Successful Language Learners
    1. Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages.They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules or grammar,and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others.They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others,so what makes language learning so much eas- ier for them?Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners,we may dis- cover a few of the techniques which make language learning easier for them.
    2. First of all,successful language learners are independent learners.They do not depend on the book or the teacher;they discover their own way to learn the language.Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain,they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves.They are good guess-ers who look for clues and form their own conclusions.When they guess wrong,they guess again. They try to learn from mistakes.
    3. Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore,successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language;they look for such a chance.They find people who speak the lan-guage and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake.They will try anything to communicate .They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things;they are willing to make mistakes and try again .When communication is difficult,they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete.It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.
    4. Finally,successful language learners are learners with a purpose.They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it.It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn with it.
    5. What kind of language learner are you?If you are a successful language learner,you have probably been learning independently,actively,and purposefully. On the other hand,if your language learning has been less than successful,you might as well try some of the techniques outlined above.

    Active language learners seize every opportunity______.
    A: to discover sentence patterns and grammatical rules
    B: to expand vocabulary
    C: to use the target language
    D: to encourage unsuccessful language learners to learn independently,actively and purposefully
    E: from clues
    F: to say strange things

    答案：C
    解析：
    本段首先通过举例方式说明有些人似乎学习语言比别人更快更轻松，引出该篇文章的主题：…a few of the techniques which make language learning easier for them．即成功学习语言的方法。
    本段主要讲述的是第一个学习语言的方法，就是独立学习的能力，作者通过举例子的方式来说明这一方法，例如这些人不会依赖老师或者课本，而是自己去摸索总结出一定的模式，寻找线索，大胆地不断地进行猜测，从错误中学习。
    本段主要讲述的另外一个语言学习的方法，就是积极主动学习的能力，这些人会寻找一切使用语言的机会，找人纠正他们的错误，敢于说一些即使有别扭的句子，愿意接受不准确或不完整的信息，对他们来说学习另一种思维方式比知道单词的意思更加重要。
    本段主要讲述的另外一个语言学习的方法，就是有目的性的学习的能力，这些人往往是因为对讲这种语言的人以及语言本身感兴趣才学习的英语，这样他们可以更好地和使用这种语言的当地人交流并向他们学习。
    依据是第二段第四句话：They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions.
    依据是第二段第三句话：Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves.
    依据是第三段第二句话：Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language;they look for such a chance.
    依据是第二段、第三段、第四段的第一句也就是每一段的主题句。本文的主旨就是介绍这三种重要的英语学习方法：独立、主动、有目的的学语言。

    _________(53)
    A:even
    B:despite
    C:even if
    D:in spite of

    答案：C
    解析：
    介词with + which引导的定语从句，become acquainted with sth.“对······熟悉、了解”。
    根据前面的daily conversation以及后面的并列成分our family associates可以推断第一种词汇就是我们和家人朋友日常交流中使用的词汇。members of family“家人”。
    even if“即使”。even“尽管”。despite/in spite of“尽管”。本句话的意思是：这种词汇即使我们是文盲也知道如何使用。
    concern“有关于”。本句话的意思是：这些词汇都和生活中的常见物有关，是各行各业使用该语言的所有人的主要词汇。
    at large“一般的，总的”。at most“至多，不超过”。in public“公开的”。at best'‘充其量，至多”。该句话的意思是：这种词汇也许可以被称为“普通词”，因为它们为普通人所用，而不是专属于某个特定的阶层。
    share“份额，一份”。right“权利”。privilege“特权”。possession“财产”。该句意思同上。句子主语为such words（这样的词汇），只有share和它无论是搭配还是意思都最合适。
    comprise“由······组成”。consist的用法一般是consist of sth.，意思是“由······组成”。constitute“构成，组成”。compose的用法一般是be composed of意思是“由······组成”。因此只能选B。
    该篇文章主要介绍两种不同的词汇，而且形成一种对照。第一种词汇是日常生活中频繁使用渐渐熟悉的，即使我们是文盲也能理解。第二种词汇只有受过教育的人知道。由此推断第二种词汇在日常对话中的使用频率和第一种词汇相比肯定很低。因此这里选seldom（很少）。
    原因同上。和第一种词汇使用的场合地点形成鲜明对照，第二种词汇没有必要在市场或者家中使用。因此这里选necessity（必要性）。
    first“最初的”;pflmary“主要的”;principal“主要的”;pflor“先前的”。该句是介绍我们最初是从哪里学会第二种词汇的。
    lips“嘴唇”;tips“末端，顶端”;mouth“嘴巴”;mother's tongue“母语”。该句意思是：我们对这些词的最初了解并非从母亲口中也不是从和同学的谈话中得知，而是······
    这里是not...but...（不是······而是······）的结构。
    attend lectures为固定搭配，意思是“上课”。
    above the habitual extent（范围）of everyday life意思是：超出日常生活范围的。border“国界，边界”;link“联系，纽带”;degree“程度”。
    distinction between sth.and sth．的意思是：······和······之间的区别；diversion“转移，消遣”;diversity“种类，多样性”;similarity“类似”。本句意思是：这些词被称为“书面词”，书面词和普通词之间的区别对于我们理解语言过程意义重大。

    正确答案： written
    解析：
    本题考查动词形态。句意：第一本把英语作为一门外语来教的教材出现于16世纪。空格处为textbook的定语，与textbook是被动关系，所以应该用write的过去分词形式written。
