【题目】用likely, probable,或possible填空。

【1】It is __________ that a war will break out in the country.

【2】It is __________ that she often makes big mistakes because she is very careless.

【3】If you hurry through your work, you are more __________ to make mistakes.

【4】If __________, try and go to bed and wake up at the same time every day.

【答案】

【1】likely

【2】probable

【3】likely

【4】possible

【解析】

【1】possible表示客观上潜在的可能性,也许实际发生的可能性并不大。possible一般不用表示人的词作主语,但若真的要用表示人的词作主语,possible后接不定式,这个不定式动作的逻辑宾语应是句子的主语,但此时的possible已经转意为“容易的”。常用结构有:a. It is possible(for sb)to do sth. b. It is possible that从句。probable表示有几分根据的推测,比possible表示的可能性大。换句话说,probable的“有可能”,是指有实际的依据或逻辑上合乎情理。一般不用表人的词作主语。常用结构有:a. Sth. is probable. b. It is probable that从句。likely强调表面上看来有可能,与probable意思接近,有时可以互换,但likely常暗示从表面迹象来判断;probable则经过权衡正反两方面的理由后而相信某事是真实的或大概会发生。常用结构有:1. 主语(人或物)is likely to do sth. 2. It is likely that从句。句意:战争很可能会爆发。暗示从表面迹象来判断战争会爆发,故用likely。

2句意:她经常犯很大的错是可能的,因为她非常粗心。表示经过权衡后相信某事是真实的或大概会发生的,用probable。

3句意:如果你匆匆完成你的工作,你更可能犯错。表示从表面上看有可能,用likely。

4句意:如果可能,尽量每天在相同的时间睡觉和起床。表示客观上潜在的可能性,用possible。

【题目】B

French writer Frantz Fanon once said: "To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture." Since the world changes every day, so does our language.

More than 300 new words and phrases have recently made it into the online Oxford Dictionary, and in one way or another they are all reflections of today’s changing world.

After a year that was politically unstable, it’s not hard to understand the fact that people’s political views are one of the main drives of our expanding vocabulary. One example is "clicktivism", a compound of "click" and "activism". It refers to "armchair activists" people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And "otherize" is a verb for "other" that means to alienate (使疏远)people who are different from ourselves whether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality.

Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, "fitspiration" a compound of fit and inspiration refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.

The phrase "climate refugee" someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate change—reflects people’s concern for the environment.

According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions. "People feel much freer to coin their own words these days," he said.

But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream (主流的) dictionary. If you want t create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive (有表现力的) and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.

【1】 What is the article mainly about?

A. Some new word that got included into the online Oxford Dictionary.

B. The application of new words and phrases.

C. How a language mirrors the changing world.

D . The impact of social media on our language.

【2】The underlined word "coin" in the second-to-last paragraph probably means .

A. use B. record C. change D. create

【3】 How is the article mainly written?

A. By giving examples.

B. By making comparisons.

C. By following a timeline.

D. By presenting research findings.

【4】According to Stevenson, to make the words you invent popular, they should .

A. be easy to remember

B. have unique meanings

C. reflect the changing world

D. be meaningful, expressive and catchy
