观点相反的选项E，才能和后面的结果相符合。（二）1.F根据空前两句可知，大约一百年前很多有学问的人学习法语，并且在见到来自其他国家人时说法语，现在大部分人见到外国人时说英语。由此可推知，英语已经成了新的国际性语言，故选F项。2.G承接上文“Whyisthis？”，并结合本段中的“Oneofthemis”和“Anotherimportantreasonis”可推知，此空表述英语流行有诸多原因，故选G项。3.C承接上文美国文化在全球的流行可知，它的语言也随之而来，故选C项。4.D承接上文的疑问句，并结合下文的肯定陈述“It'simportanttohavealanguagethatthepeopleoftheearthhaveincommon”可知，此处是表示英语在全世界的传播是一件好事，故选D项。5.B根据空后“MaybethepopularityofEnglishwon'tlastthatlongeither”可知，B项：但是它并没有流行起来，符合语境，衔接上下文。（三）1.E结合本段的标题Origins可推知，此处介绍了孝心的起源及其基本内容，与选项E呼应，所以选E项。2.F根据空后“Besides,itinvolvesworkinghardinordertoprovidematerialcomfortsforparents.”此外，孝心也包括努力工作来为父母提供物质上的舒适条件，可推知，空处应是表述孝心的具体行为，故F项符合语境，衔接上下文。3.G空处上文主要阐述了孝心在家庭中的具体实践和体现，由此可推知空处应是表述孝心对除个人家庭外的长者也适用，故G项符合语境。4.B空处是本段的主题句。通读全段可知，本段主要是对“孝”字的字形进行分析，并联系本部分的标题Chinesecharacter可知，选项B符合语境。5.D承接上段对“孝”字的字形分析，此处对孝进行了总结和意义分析，所以选D项。（四）1.D本空后一句说“在机洗衣服的过程中，高达85%的能量用于加热水”，所以“在可能的情况下，用冷水洗6,衣服”就可以了。2.G本空前一句建议种植耐旱的植物。既然耐旱，自然“不需要浇多少水”。3.E根据接下来一段的内容可知，本条建议人们走路或者骑自行车上班，这样不仅可以省下油钱、停车费，而且有益健康，减少肥胖的风险。由此可知，E项适合作该段小标题。4.A本条建议是关于吃方面的。A项中不仅出现了somethingtoeat，而且其中的local也在后一句中有所复现。5.C本条建议是关于不买瓶装水的。“旅游或者工作的时候带一个可重复使用的喝水杯”就可以避免买瓶装水。（五）1.C根据本段语境可知，作者家里经济很困难，吃不起圣诞晚餐，买不起圣诞礼物，但是作者还是给妈妈准备了礼物，这是因为作者“知道妈妈为此而难过”，所以“下决心不让自己和妈妈因此而沮丧”。2.A根据本空后的Iwaitedanxiouslyforhertoopenit可推测，作者把礼物“递给了”妈妈。3.F作者知道家里经济困难买不起礼物，所以很“好奇”妈妈会送给自己什么。再根据本空后的句子可知，作者同时又很“害怕”妈妈给自己买了负担不起的礼物。4.G既然妈妈把戒指送给了作者，那么“它就是我的了”。5.D即使家里经济很困难，但是作者和妈妈都送给了对方用心准备的圣诞礼物，所以对她们俩来说，“这个圣诞节是有史以来最棒的”。6
