B．watchC．surround

D．understand分析：选

D

好多语言学习者以为他们的发音已经足够好了，

由于他们的老师不常常纠正他们，或其余同学可以听懂他们所说的。mistake“弄错”；watch“观看”；surround“包围”；understand“理解，理解”。2．A.fixed

B．drawnC．paid

D．called分析：选

C

此句是本段的主题句，发音是在语言学习中最少关注的一个方面

/领域。payattentionto“关注”，切合语境和搭配。fixone'sattentionon/upon...“留神，专心于(此中介词为on/upon)”；draw/callone'sattentionto“惹起某人对的注意”，不合语境。3．A.never

B．everC．even

D．usually分析：选

D

从下文可知，多半老师往常会让学生持续说下去。

这是多半老师往常的做法，故用

usually

。4．A.onlyifB．ifonlyC．evenifD．ifever分析：选A只有当他们说的完整错了才会让他们停下来。onlyif“只有当(的时候)”；ifonly“希望，假如多好”；evenif“即便”；ifever“假如有过的话(假如发生过的话)”。从语境看，只有onlyif适合。5．A.fantasticB．impossibleC．necessaryD．important分析：选B该句和下句是对本段第二句的解说。在讲堂上纠正每个学生的发音是不行能的(impossible)。6．A.poorB．wellC．goodD．strict分析：选C从“thatitwillembarrasstheirclassmatesifthey...”来看，这里是指发音好的同学的担忧。begoodat“在方面好，善于”。7．A.findoutB．workoutC．tryoutD．pointout分析：选D判断“iftheyhelp...”中they指代“谁”是做本题的重点。从语境知，这里的they指代的是“thestudentswhoare________atpronunciation”，所以，“他们”应当是“指出”同学们的错误，故用pointout(指出)。8．A.communicateB．travelC．pronounceD．exchange分析：选A从下文可判断，此处说的是“由于对老师和其余学生来说你的发音足够好，你就相信你的发音足够好而可以进行沟通(communicate)的话，那么当真实到了外国你或许会感觉很惊讶”。本文讨论的主题是“发音”问题，与此有关应是用语言进行“沟通”，所以不可以选择travel(背叛了主题)，下文举例也说了然这一点。9．A.happy

B．disappointedC．surprised

D．excited分析：选

C

那么当真实到了外国你或许会感觉很惊讶。10．A.Polish

B．FrenchC．German

D．English分析：选

D

下文谈到他到了美国，联合知识可判断，在波兰时他是“英语”课上

(英语)最好的学生。11．A.none

B．halfC．rest

D．lot分析：选

B当他到美国时，他发现他说的话美国人听懂不到一半。

none

不可以用在否认句中；rest常与the连用，组成therest，即便加上the，此处也不对，因前面没有提到他说的话的一部分；lot也不可以用，应当为alot或lots才对。12．A.neartoB．differentfromC．farfromD．fromfar分析：选C你的发音或许仍旧与生来就说英语的人的发音差异很大。farfrom“远离，远非”，这里指差异很大(暗含还可以听懂一部分)。differentfrom“与不一样”，quitedifferentfrom“与完整不一样”，不切合语境。13．A.sameB．matterC．caseD．fact分析：选Cifthisisthecase是常用语，意为“假如这样，假如这样的话”。14．A.easyB．beneficialC．convenientD．hard分析：选D假如这样(指的是你的发音与生来就说英语的人的发音差异很大)的话，他人将会发现听懂你说的话“很难(hard)”，并不是“简单”、“有益”或“方便”。15．A.InconclusionB．InawordC．OnthecontraryD．Inshort分析：选A这是作者依据学生的常有问题最后提一点建议，并不是作总结，故不可以选择inaword,inshort。inconclusion在此相当于finally。16．A.whenB．untilC．unlessD．while分析：选Bnot...until...为常有句型，意为“直到才”。17．A.StandB．LookC．AimD．Account分析：选C从下文的“Inordertoachievethisgoal”获得示意。以母语或以靠近母语的发音为目标，这样就会自如地和与你谈话的人沟通了。aimfor“对准，以为目标”。standfor“代表”；lookfor“找寻”；accountfor“解说的原由”。18．A.smoothlyB．difficultlyC．trulyD．practically分析：选A练习发音就是为了能与人自如地沟通，smoothly“顺畅地，流畅地”。19．A.nowayB．noneedC．nodoubtD．nowonder分析：选Cthere'snodoubtthat...“毫无疑问”。为了实现上述目标，毫无疑问你需要开始思虑发音问题，

并在这上边花些时间。

noway“决不”；

noneed“没有必需”；nowonder“难怪”。20．A.take

B．costC．spend

D．kill分析：选

Cspend...on...

“在上花销时间”，切合搭配和语境。

killtime

也能搭配，但往常表示“消磨光阴”；

taketime

的主语常常是“事物”，不是“人”。Ⅳ.语法填空Youaretheonlypersonthatyoucanandoughttorelyon.Friendsareofgreat__1__(important)inourlives.Itis__2__(fortune)tohavesomedevotedones.However,therewillalwaysbecircumstances__3__whichyourfriendswillletyoudown.Theonlypeoplewhomaygiveuptheirlives__4__(save)yoursaremembersofyourfamily—mostlikelyoneofyour__5__(parent).Parentsshareabondwiththeirchildren__6__attimescanbeextremelystrong.However,Iamsureyouhaveplentyofexamplesof__7__youcan'talwayscountonyourparents.Wehumanbeings__8__(build)tosurvive
