　　學而思名師點評

　　本文主要想告訴讀者，學英語是一個長期而艱苦的勞動，沒有任何捷徑可走。無論你用什么方法學習--用書、機器或在學校，不多實踐就無法達到預期的目的。

　　答案簡析

　　B。這里的or是“否則”的意思。

　　C。根據作者的觀點，這種事絕對不可能發生。impossible是一個形容詞，不符語法，can’t后不可能跟happens，often意思與作者的意圖相反。

　　D。唯一容易學的語言是母語。這里需要一個形容詞充當后置定語。

　　A。用來修飾不可數名詞，只有用how much，全句意為“母語好學，還需要那么多的練習。”何況外語呢?。

　　B。動詞不定式充當目的狀語。意為“學習外語來研究文學”。

　　C。說某種語言用speak，speak English，speak Chinese。

　　D。用it代指上文所說的a foreign language。

　　B。這里的with是“用”的意思。

　　A。作者在這里提出一種假設。如果他們一星期只有一兩次使用外語。

　　C。固定短語，意為“做某事花費某人多長時間”。

　　B。后面省略了than 6 hours。意為6個小時或更多的時間。

　　D。it 代指上文所指的foreign language，故用被動被態。

　　C。許多人不可能做到這一點。這里不可以用not possible，因為它的主語不可以用人。

　　D。機器和書對于學習英語來說是很有幫助的。

　　15. B。whether …or…固定短語。
