Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary , one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in you own language.Languages do not just have different sounds: they are different in many ways. It’s important to master(掌握) the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the speaker puts the words in a wrong order, the listener can’t understand the speaker’s sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes when the order is changed , the meaning of the sentence doesn’ t change. Let’s see the difference between the two pairs of sentences below.“She only likes apples.”Only she likes apples.”“I have seen the film already.” “I have already seen the film..”When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the English speaker does.46.From the passage we know that when we are learning English.A. we shouldn’t put every word into our own langua ge.B. we should look up every word in the dictionaryC. we need to put every word into our own languageD. we must read word by word47. The writer thinks it is in learning English.A. difficult to understand different soundsB. impossible to remember the word order.C. important to master the rules in different waysD. easy to master the rules for word order48. We can learn from the passage that .A. the meaning of an English sentence always changes with the order of words.B. the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentenceC. sometimes a different order of words has a different meaningD. if the order of words is different, the meaning of the sentence must be different49. “She only likes apple”A. is the same as “Only she likes apples”B. is different from “Only she likes apples”C. means “She likes fruit except apples”D. means “She doesn’t like apples”50. Which is the best title for this passage?A. Different Orders, Different MeaningsB. How to Speak EnglishC. How to Put English into Our Own LanguageD.
