二、閱讀理解
What is language for? Some people seem to think it's for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words? The longer the lists, the better. That’s wrong. Language is for the exchange of ideas and information. It’s meaningless knowing all about a language if you can’t use it freely. Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they can't speak correctly or fluently (流利地). They are afraid of making mistakes. One shouldn’t be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. Native speakers make mistakes and break rules, too. Bernard Shaw once wrote, “Foreigners often speak English too correctly.’’ But the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make. They’re English mistakes in the English language. And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong becomes right. People not only make history, they make language. But a people (民族) can only make its own language. It can’t make another people’s language. So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldn’t overdo it. They should put communication first.

答案及詳細解析
一、閱讀短文，補全單詞
Moved，feeling，job, stay, alone, make, advice, hearing
解析：本題難點在於最後兩空，advice是不可數名詞，不能用複數;look forward to doing sth,要把hear變成動名詞。
二、閱讀理解
1. C解析：文中第六句說到，即使是本民族與的使用者也會犯錯誤，四個選項中只有C “不能避免犯錯誤”最符合意思。
2.C 解析：從最後一句可以看出，作者強調外國人要學語法，但不能過分遵循，所以本句是說說外語時過分遵守語法了。
3. D 解析：本題從第五行最後及第六行開頭可以得出答案。
(做閱讀理解最終要的是要在文中將答案劃出來，孩子們要養成這個習慣，可以保證閱讀的準確率。)
