English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home.What to ExpectThe host will provide accommodation and meals.Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week.You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.Accommodation ZonesHomestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2,3 and 4 of the transport system.Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential(居住的).Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area.It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.Meal Plans AvailableContinental BreakfastBreakfast and DinnerBreakfast,Packed Lunch and DinnerIts important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast.Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice,cereal(谷物类食品),bread and tea or coffee.Cheese,fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England.Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by desert,fruit and coffee.FriendsIf you wish to invite a friend over to visit,you must first ask your hosts permission.You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.Self-Catering Accommodation in Private HomesAccommodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room.This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student.However,it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise English at home quite as much.1.The passage is probably written for .A.hosts willing to receive foreign studentsB.foreigners hoping to build British cultureC.travellers planning to visit families in LondonD.English learners applying to live in English homes2.According to the passage,what does Continental Breakfast include?A.Dessert and coffee.B.Fruit and vegetables.C.Bread and fruit juice.D.Cereal and cold meat.3.Why do some people choose self-catering accommodation?A.To experience a warmer family atmosphere.B.To enrich their knowledge of English.C.To entertain friends as they like.D.To enjoy much more freedom.导学号23280015BThe best-known example of external(外部的) influence causing language change is the “Americanization” of world culture,which has caused English words to appear in city streets all over the world.The effect is most noticeable in pop music.Foreign groups often record in English,and the words are picked up and repeated in the same language everywhere,even by children who otherwise have little or no command of the language.I once met a Brazilian child of about ten who could count “one,two,three”,but only by adding the words “oclock,four oclock rock” at the end.Some people are often strongly critical of the influence of English on their languageespecially when an English word replaces a traditional word.In 1977,France passed a law banning the use of English words in official situations if an equivalent(意义相同的) French expression existedbut the law seemed to be honoured more in the breaking than in the observing.Some other countries have considered introducing a similar law despite the evidence that such laws have very little effect,and that the arrival of loan words(外来词) can greatly enrich a language(as indeed in the case of English itself,which has a long history of welcoming foreign words).However,not everyone is critical.In particular,commercial firms and advertisers are well aware of the potential selling power that the use of English vocabulary can bring.In Japan,English is even used in television commercials,despite the fact that the majority of viewers would not understand exactly what was being said:the excellence implied by the mere use of English is apparently enough to command the strategy to the advertisers.Most of the influence of English is upon the vocabulary of foreign languages,but surveys are slowly bringing to light several cases where word order or word structure has been affected.Sentences of the type “The book sells well”,using an active construction for a passive meaning,have begun to appear in Danish(Bogen soelger godt).Several languages keep the English plural ending when they make use of a loan word,and do not translate it into the native form,e.g.drinks.There are many other such cases.4.Why could the Brazilian child speak “one,two,three” in English?A.Because he had seen these words everywhere in the street.B.Because he had learnt how to tell the time in English.C.Because he had made himself master of English.D.Because he had heard these words in a song a lot.5.What can we infer about the law passed in France in 1977?A.It was strict.B.It was unfair.C.It was often ignored.D.It was strongly opposed.6.Some Japanese commercials use English in the hope of .A.following the American trendB.becoming world-famousC.enriching JapaneseD.increasing sales7.The last paragraph is mainly developed by .A.providing examplesB.making comparisonsC.explaining grammar rulesD.analyzing language

gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs.These are influenced by society,our family,the education we receive and so on.1Financial experts say that everyone also has their own beliefs of how to manage their finances.This is part of our value system and it has a great impact on the way we look after our money.2 They are:the ant,the cricket and the snail.The antworks first3 They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire.Ants love to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk.The cricketenjoys firstThe cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesnt think too much about the future.They even borrow money when they really want something.4 These people have little savings.When they get old,they might have problems.They should learn to save and buy insurance.The snaillives under pressure5 They take big long-term loans from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses.They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure whether they can afford them.This can cause problems in the future.They should plan more carefully.A.Many young people now belong to this group.B.On the other hand,many old people belong to this group.C.According to our different values,experts put us in three categories.D.The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves.E.Once this value system is set up,its not easy to change later in life.F.Different from ants,crickets are those who make their life overburdened.G.Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter,these people dont care about enjoying the moment.导学号23280017.短文改错(2018江西九江一中月考)Word came that our

English.”并结合整篇文章可推断出这篇文章是写给那些申请住在英国家庭的英语学习者的。2.C细节理解题。根据文章中第三个黑体标题下的“Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice,cereal(谷物类食品),bread and tea or coffee.”一句可知。3.D细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句“This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student.”可知,self-catering accommodation为住宿学生提供比较独立的生活方式,所以学生们可以享受到更多的自由。故D项正确。【解题导语】本文是议论文。文章讨论了英语对其他语言的影响。4.D推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Foreign groups often record in English.but only by adding the words oclock,four oclock rock at the end.”可知,文中提到的这个巴西小孩可能本身不太会说英语,但是由于含有这些英语数字的歌曲不断重复播放,所以他学会了说这些数字。5.C细节理解题。根据第二段中的“.but the law seemed to be honoured more in the breaking than in the observing.”及such laws have very little effect可知,人们经常不遵守这项法律。6.D推理判断题。根据第三段中的“.the potential selling power that the use of English vocabulary can bring.”及“.the excellence implied by the mere use of English.”可知,广告中使用英语能让人感觉该产品很出色,激发人们的购买欲。7.A写作手法题。最后一段中通过“主动结构表达被动意义”和“保留表示复数的词尾”两个例子来说明英语对其他语言的语序或结构也有影响。.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了不同的价值观带来的不同理财观念。1.E本空是一个段尾句,用来总结本段的大意,起承上启下的作用,故选E项。E项中的this value system指上文中的“a set of our own values or beliefs”,同时呼应下文中的“our value system”。2.C本空主要用来引出下文,由“the ant,the cricket and the snail”可知,选C项。3.G由空后的“They work very hard and save money” “Ants love to save”可知,应选G项。G项中的“like ants who work heart.to store food for winter”与之对应。4.A根据空后的“These people have little savings.When they get old.”可知选A项,A项起承上启下的作用。5.D由本段小标题“The snaillives under pressure”可知,应选D项。本段主要解释“蜗牛”这类人的价值观。.Word
