Question

【題目】How do you improve your spelling?【1】Just as we learn spoken language by hearing lots of people speaking, we learn written language, including spelling, by reading what a lot of people write. Spelling is not about how a word sound, it’s about how it looks on the page, which means you have to look at a lot of words on the page to learn the correct spelling about it.

Make a list of your commonly misspelled words.【2】When you get a chance, look it up and put the correct spelling next to it.

【3】 If you look it up more than once, add it to your personal list.

Write! Write! Write! 【4】When you look it up how to spell a word, write it down several times in a row and do it again a day or two later. 【5】Write a blog, a journal, e-mails, a novel, anything that will keep you using words and pay special attention as you write to the words that come up wrong.

A. There is no substitute(代替) for reading a lot.

B. Put a mark next to every word you look up in the dictionary.

C. Those of us who spell well have a hard time explaining it, too.

D. Let others read your writings, and ask them to circle misspelled words.

E. You’re trying to build up the motor memory of writing it correctly spelled.

F. The only way to really learn a word is to use it, and that counts for spelling as much as for learning its meaning.

G. When you catch yourself spelling the same word wrong over and over, write it down somewhere.

【解析】這是一篇記敘文。為我們講述了學(xué)習(xí)語言時(shí)拼寫的重要性，為我們提供了幾個練習(xí)拼寫能力的建議。

【1】根據(jù)“How do you improve your spelling?”你怎樣提高拼寫能力？以及后文的“we learn written language, including spelling, by reading what a lot of people write.”我們通過閱讀來學(xué)習(xí)寫作，包括拼寫�？芍�，此處強(qiáng)調(diào)的是閱讀的重要性，故選A。

【2】根據(jù)“Make a list of your commonly misspelled words.___2___When you get a chance, look it up and put the correct spelling next to it.”制作一個你常拼錯的單詞的清單。當(dāng)你有空時(shí)查找詞典，在旁邊寫上正確的詞�？芍�本處強(qiáng)調(diào)的是把錯誤的詞寫在同一個地方以便改正。故選G。

【3】根據(jù)“___3___ If you look it up more than once, add it to your personal list.

”當(dāng)你查得不止一遍時(shí)，把它放到你的個人清單上�？芍�，此處依舊在強(qiáng)調(diào)查找、處理單詞的方式，與此處查找單詞有關(guān)的選項(xiàng)為B，故選B。

【4】根據(jù)“When you look it up how to spell a word, write it down several times in a row and do it again a day or two later.”當(dāng)你查找怎樣拼寫一個單詞時(shí)，把它多次記下來，一兩天后再做一遍�？芍�，此處強(qiáng)調(diào)我們要重復(fù)記憶正確的拼寫方式。故選E。

【5】根據(jù)“Write a blog, a journal, e-mails, a novel, anything that will keep you using words and pay special attention as you write to the words that come up wrong.”寫博客、日記、郵件、小說等任何可以讓你不斷拼寫并且要注意是否錯誤的東西。可知，此處強(qiáng)調(diào)的是要學(xué)會在實(shí)際中使用這些拼寫的單詞。故選F。
