Formal English is used for most writing, and often in public speaking and formal meetings. It pays close attention to grammar rules, because if we use proper grammar, our meaning is often more precise. Also, on important occasions, we do not want to appear uneducated or to offend (冒犯) others, so we are very careful about how we speak. Informal English is used in speaking or writing to our friends and family. It often does not pay such close attention to grammar rules, because when we speak or write to them, we want our words to flow quickly. Also, with our friends and family, we are usually not so worried about appearing uneducated or about offending them by how we write or speak. A big difference between formal and informal English is the use of contractions. A contraction is where we make a word shorter or where we put two words together and take away some of the letters. For example, instead of saying “do not”, many people say “don’t”. Using contractions in our speech is fine because it sounds natural, especially when we speak to our friends. In formal writing, however, contractions are usually avoided because people might think that you have made a mistake, or that you do not know proper grammar. In the same way we might make words shorter, in informal English we often make sentences shorter as well. For example, if someone asks you your name, you will likely answer with one word: your first name. However, in formal English we usually use complete sentences. For example, we might write “My name is John”. In most speaking, we may not need to use every word in a sentence because the person we are speaking to will probably still understand us. In most writing, however, every word in a sentence must be written out in order to make sure that we can be understood. 56. When we use formal English, _______. A. we will offend others B. we will appear educated on important occasions C. we needn’t pay more attention to grammar rules D. we can express ourselves more directly and more quickly 57. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “precise”? A. simpleB. directC. puzzlingD. clear 58. Contractions are best used when we are _______. A. speaking at a formal meetingB. speaking to our friends C. speaking in publicD. writing an application (申请) letter 59. In speaking, we do not always use complete sentences because ______. A. we do not care about grammarB. we do not want to sound stupid C. we can still be understoodD. we don’t want to waste time B “It’s our tradition to help each other”, added Tenpa, a medical official in neighbouring Madoi County, who said Yushu has always been quick to help other areas in times of trouble. “We have suffered many dangers and each time people in Yushu have sent food and clothes. We are always thankful to them and hopefully we proved it by being the first rescue team to arrive in Yushu after the earthquake.” The Madoi medical team arrived just hours after the violent 7.1-magnitude earthquake hit Yushu. In two weeks, they have treated at least 1,800 people, while the county has donated 400,000 yuan. The biggest fear in the earthquake area is the outbreak of diseases. Tenpa said, “Keeping things clean in the shelter is very hard. Even hand washing is almost impossible because of lack of water. Our team is spraying disinfectant (喷洒消毒剂) and we hope that will work.” After driving for 13 hours with his medical team, Tian Jiancan said he immediately found a 40-year-old who was seriously injured after being trapped in a toppled house. Tian had to operate on the man in his emergency medical van. “If we had been one hour later, he would probably be dead. It’s good to see him out of danger now.” Tian’s medical team has treated over 3,200 people, including a 15-day-old baby and a 105-year-old man. They also helped to put up tents against winds, where patients are protected well. One local man said although most doctors cannot speak Tibetan, they have shown their care and love through their actions. 60. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. This is the first time that Tibetans have faced great dangers. B. People in Yushu have always been ready to help each other. C. Madoi was also hit by the 7.1-magnitude earthquake. D. Tian’s team is the second rescue team to arrive Yushu. 61. What is the closest meaning to the underlined words in paragraph 7? A. a house on the top floor B. a house which had no roofs C. a house which fell down D. a house which was poorly built 62. How many people have been rescued by the medical teams according to the passage? A. About 1,800. B. 3,200. C. At least 5,000. D. 4000,000. 63. What is the passage mainly about? A. People in Yushu are encouraged by the medical team workers. B. The doctors went along quite well in spite of the language trouble. C. The Madoi medical team was the first to arrive at the earthquake-hit area. D. The medical workers made great efforts to help the people suffering from the earthquake. C HANGZHOU-As a major province neighboring Shanghai, Zhejiang is set to benefit from the Expo in the city this year in more ways than one. According to a survey from the Bureau of Shanghai World Expo Coordination, 80 percent of the respondents (回答者) going to the Expo have plans to travel and 75 percent of them will go to nearby places, such as Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces. Hangzhou, Suzhou, Nanjing and Wuxi are the most popular sites, where tourism will be the best winner. (责任编辑:admin) |
