用的是什么俚语?!)”构成并列关系，用两个问题说明前面的观点。故选C。【17题详析】下文“WecanseehowthestandardelementsofEnglishchangeacrosstheUS,theUK,andevenSingapore,whereSinglishexistsasahyper-regionaldialectofEnglish.(我们可以看到英语的标准元素在美国、英国甚至新加坡是如何变化的，新加坡式英语是作为一种超区域的英语方言而存在的)”说明英语在美国、英国、新加坡不同地域有所变化，并且还提到新加坡英语是非常有地域特征的英语方言，由此可知本段主要谈论方言和地域的关系。G项“方言往往与地理界限紧密相连。”适合作本段的主旨句，起到统领全段的作用。故选G。【18题详析】上文“Thefirstthingyou’llnoticeabouteachEnglishdialectistheshiftinpronunciation.Thisshift,betterknownasanaccent,isanimportantelementofadialect.

(关于每种英语方言，你首先会注意到发音的变化。这种转变，更广为人知的是口音，是方言的一个重要元素)”说明口音由英语的发音变化而来的。空处承上启下。D项中的“accent

”和上文中“Thisshift,betterknownasanaccent”相呼应，“isn’talwaysnecessarytoadialect”和下文中的“Don’tworrytoomuchaboutthis”相呼应，说明口音对方言来说并不总是必要的。故选D。【19题详析】上文“Studiesshowthatchildrenwhoprimarilyspeakadialectarehyper-awareofthedifferences,andareabletoreachreadingandwritinggoalsmorequicklyasaresult.

(研究表明，主要说方言的儿童对差异有高度的意识，因此能够更快地达到阅读和写作目标)”说明了学习方言的好处，就是可以让孩子更快达成阅读和写作目标。空处顺接上文，继续谈论学习方言的好处，E项“方言还可以让你建立更深层次的联系。”符合语境。该项中的also表明了和前文的递进关系。故选E。【20题详析】下文“Movies,music,books,andnewsareallfantasticwaystopickuponthosedialecticalnuances.(电影、音乐、书籍和新闻都是了解这些辩证细微差别的奇妙方式)”说明了接触语言的方式。空处对后文列举的信息进行概括。A项“然后，扩大你的对语言的接触。”符合语境。故选A。第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。YoungEmily,agedfour,isdeafandusesBritishSignLanguagetocommunicate.Hermother,TanyaAndrews,tookherandhersix-year-oldbrotherHugoto____21____SantaaheadoftheChristmasholidaywhenanelf(精灵)madea____22____impressiononthefamily.Thefamily____23____thesweetstoryofhowMelanieBoyeson,playingHollytheElf,helpedEmilytellSantawhatshe____24____forChristmas.Tanyatookher____25____totheAirmynParkPrimarySchoolfortheouting,inwhichtheschool’sheadteacher,NatalieDodds,saidthattheelfwashired(雇用)____26____forEmily.Tanyasaidthe____27____wasmagical,asshehadtakenherdaughtertofourdifferentSantameetingsovertheyearsandbeenfalselypromisedaSantawho____28____signlanguage.“Emilybeingableto____29____freelywiththeelfandtellSantawhatshewantedwasjust____30____,”Tanyasaid.“Seeingwhatwasinfrontofme,Iwasintears.ItwassoamazingtoseeEmily’sface____31____.”Emilywasalittle____32____atfirst,asshehadneverinteractedwithSantabefore,butHollytheElf____33____hertospeakwithSanta.Tanyawassogladthatherdaughter’sdream____34____andhopeditwouldbea(n)____35____forotherstoenjoyexperiencessimilartotheirswithSanta.“Ihopethebarriers(障碍)forthedeafcommunitywillberemovedoneday,”shesaid.21.A.attract
