网友回答
(答案→)C
解析：
【小题1】C。由上文暗示可预期：理论上说，一个人越早学语言，他(她)会越容易学好。“The +比较级，the+比较级”表示“越来越……”。C、D为可选项，而D意不符，故选C。
【小题2】B。考查转折连词的使用区别。but连接句子时其后不可用逗号；however前后可用逗号隔开；though常放于句末；yet与but相似，故选however。
【小题3】D。根据上下文暗示可预期：练习语言的基本表达能力……，A、B、C都不符和句意，故选expressions表达。
【小题4】A。由上下文提示可预期：直接通过合适的阅读方法和努力，才能形成能力，而orally意为“口头”；properly意为“合适地”，因上文已出现proper reading ways,故有重复之嫌；indirectly意为“间接地”；故选directly(直接地)。
【小题5】C。由上下文可预期，谈论的对象即是children孩子。
【小题6】D。由上下文可预期：先是花钱去学，而后是失望收场。A、B与句意不合，finish不与up with搭配，end up with意为“以……结束”。
【小题7】A。根据句意可预期：付(花)钱多，失望大。take常用在结构：it takes sb some time / money to do sth 花某人时间或钱做某事；B、C与句意不符。
【小题8】C。由上下文暗示可预期：因为不喜欢才来了一位学英语的大学生，从而开发了她的兴趣；故选disliked不喜欢。其他不符。
【小题9】A。因为外籍教师对心理学的盲点，才导致她厌学。because和because均表示“因为”，但前者为连词，后者为介词；instead of是介词；instead是副词。故用because of。
【小题10】D。介词to 意为“对……而言(来说)”。
【小题11】A. go on doing指继续不停地做同一件事；go on to do指继续去做另一件事；go on with sth 指停顿后接着去做同一件事；D为干扰项，故选learning。
【小题12】C when表示“当时”，相当于and at that time；while表示“在……时候”；where表示“在……地方”；as表示“因为”、“在……时候”。
【小题13】D。introduced意为“介绍”；practised意为“练习”；explained意为“解释”，均不合句意，而developed(开发)正合语境。
【小题14】A。have some difficulty / trouble (in)doing sth意为“做某事遇到困难”。
【小题15】B。由上下文可判断
【小题16】A。根据上下文可预期：发音好但词汇量不够——缺陷，故选pronunciation。
【小题17】C。根据上文可知，表否定但无比较，可知选项为A、C；而few修饰可数名词，故选little修饰不可数名词。
【小题18】D。根据文意，文章显然为记散文，可知选项为C、D，相比之处，remember(追忆，记得)不如memorize(记住)恰当。
【小题19】C。因在四个选项中只有cause后接不定式的复合结构时不定式要带to。
【小题20】B。get back意为“回来，返回”；let go意为“放开，错过”；bring in意为“引来，吸收”；go away意为“走开，离开”
