 “YouspeakverygoodEnglish”TheotherdayIheardanAmericansa...

 “You speak very good English”


The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English. “You  1  very good English.” But the student answered, “ No, my English is very poor.” The foreigner was quite


  2  at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself  3  or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak it very well.” But the Chinese student still  4  saying  “No”.  5  the foreigner gave up and didn’t know what to say.


What’s wrong with the student’s answer? It is because he didn’t accept a compliment as the American people  6  . He should have said “Thank you” instead of “No”. He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If someone says to a woman, “ You look  7  beautiful with the new clothes  8  .” she should be very happy and answer, “Thank you.” In our country we think  9  modest is a virtue and showing off is a bad behavior. But in the West, if you are modest and say, “ No,   10  I can’t do it well,” then the others will take it for granted (理所當然)that you  11  can not do it. If you often say,“No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by  12  . When  13  for a job, if one says something like “Yes, I can certainly do it” instead of “ Let me have a try on the job”, he or she can expect to get it. So in the West, one should always be confident. 14  self-confidence, he can’t go anywhere. Confidence is of great  15  to one in a country where competition is quite keen.(激烈)

【解析】短文大意: 這篇短文主要談到了英語交際中的謙虛問題,在西方交際中對於別人的誇獎,讚美等恭維一般是欣然結構,並表示感謝,而不是像*人一樣謙虛幾句。由此也讓我們懂得,在西方社會自信是多麼的重要。

1.動詞辨析。tell告訴,講述,強調一個人説;say 説,強調説的內容;talk 不及物動詞,談話,多和介詞搭配使用;speak演講,發言,説某種語言。聯繫下文,可知此處指的是你的英語説得不錯。故選C。

2.聯繫後一句描述,可知這個外國人很驚訝,故選B,驚訝的,感到出人意料的。B

3.結合語境可知此處指的是這個男孩認為對方沒有明白自己的意思。過去分詞作賓語補足語表示被動的動作,結合 語境可知選A。

4.聯繫上下文可知此處指的是,這個*學生仍舊堅持説……。結合語境可知本句描述的是過去發生的動作,故用過去時態,選D,堅持,繼續。

5.短語辨析。A. 首先,最初;    B. 順便説説;C.終於,最後;D. 首先。聯繫前文,可知這個外國人最後放棄了。故選C。

6.結合語境可知此處指的是他沒有像美國人那樣接受恭維。結合語境可知從句中描述的是客觀*動作,故用一般現在時態。本句主語the American people 表示複數含義,故謂語動詞用原形。選D。

7.詞義辨析。such是形容詞,修飾名詞,意思是如此的這樣的;so是副詞,修飾形容詞,副詞,意思是如此這樣。連詞下文beautiful ,可知選C,副詞修飾形容詞。

8.介詞辨析。A.為了,對於;B. 在上面;C.在裏面;D.進入。本句中介詞on用作形容詞,表示衣服穿在身上的意思,故選B。

9.聯繫上下文可知此處指的是,我們認為誠實是一種美德。結合語境可知本句從句中是動名詞做主語,have的基本含義是有,故選A。

10短語辨析。A.我害怕;B. 我不確定;C.我不介意;D.我不知道。結合語境可知此處指的是,恐怕我不能做好。故選A。

11聯繫前文描述,可知此處指的是,他們認為你真的不能做好。故選B,真實地。

12聯繫上下文,可知此處指的是,你肯定會被其他人看不起,故選D,其他人。

13結合語境可知此處指的是當找工作時,現在分詞作狀語表示正在進行的伴隨*動作,故選A,要求。

14聯繫下文,可知此處指的是沒有自信,寸步難行。故選B,沒有。

15聯繫前文描述,可知自信對於一個來説具有很大的重要*。本句中of是介詞,後面接名詞作賓語,故選D,重要*。
