【題目】閱讀下面短文，在空白處填入1個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~或括號(hào)內(nèi)單詞的正確形式，并將答案填寫(xiě)在答題卡上。

English perfectly shows the “network effects” of a global tongue: the more people use it, the more useful it is. Parents expect their children 【1】(master)English, which is encouraging the 【2】(grow)of private schooling. Education authorities are switching to English medium, in part to control the outflow(外流) of children into the private sector.

Teaching children in English is fine if that is 【3】 they speak at home and their parents are fluent 【4】 it. But that is not 【5】 case in most public and low-cost private schools. Children are taught in a language they don’t understand by teachers 【6】 English is poor. The children learn neither English nor anything else.

Research shows that children learn 【7】(much)when they are taught in their mother tongue than they do when they are taught in any other language. In a study of children in 12 schools in Cameroon last month, those taught in Kom 【8】(do)better than those taught in English in all subjects.

English should be an important subject at school, but not 【9】(necessary)the language of instruction. Rather than switching to English-medium teaching, governments fearful of 【10】(lose) custom (光顧) to the private sector should look at the many possible ways of improving public schools.

【解析】

這是一篇議論文。短文闡述了兒童教學(xué)宜采用母語(yǔ)，而非英語(yǔ)。

【1】考查動(dòng)詞不定式。expect sb to do sth “期望某人做某事”為固定短語(yǔ)。故填 to master。

【2】考查名詞。 the +名詞+of...“。。。。。。。的”。故填growth。

【3】考查連接代詞。分析句子可知，is后接表語(yǔ)從句。在表語(yǔ)從句中，what作speak的賓語(yǔ)。故填 what。

【4】考查介詞。be fluent in“在......方面流利”為固定短語(yǔ)。故填in。

【5】考查冠詞。this is not the case“情況不是這樣”為固定短語(yǔ)。故填the。

【6】考查關(guān)系代詞。分析句子可知，teachers 為先行詞，在后面的定語(yǔ)從句中作定語(yǔ)，所以關(guān)系代詞為whose。故填whose。

【7】考查形容詞比較級(jí)。由“than”可知，空處應(yīng)填much的比較級(jí)more。故填more。

【8】考查一般過(guò)去時(shí)。由“last month”可知，本句為一般過(guò)去時(shí)。所以空處填did。故填did 。

【9】考查副詞。necessarily為副詞修飾整個(gè)句子。故填necessarily。

【10】考查動(dòng)名詞。of 為介詞后接動(dòng)名詞作賓語(yǔ)。故填losing。

定語(yǔ)從句中關(guān)系詞的選擇可考慮以下三點(diǎn)：

(1) 一看先行詞的意義，即分清先行詞是指人、指物、時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)還是原因(如指物時(shí)不能用who或whom，指人時(shí)通常不用which等。

(2) 二看關(guān)系詞的句法功能，即分清關(guān)系詞是擔(dān)任什么句子成分，是作主語(yǔ)還是賓語(yǔ)、是作定語(yǔ)還是狀語(yǔ)等(如作定語(yǔ)通常用whose，有時(shí)也用which；作狀語(yǔ)要用when, where, why。

(3) 三看定語(yǔ)從句的種類(lèi)，即分清是限制性定語(yǔ)從句還是非限制性定語(yǔ)從句(如that和why通常不引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句。

分析小題6的句子可知，teachers 為先行詞，在后面的定語(yǔ)從句中作定語(yǔ)，所以關(guān)系代詞為whose。故填whose。
