Reading Comprehension.Directions : There are five reading passages in this part.Each passage is questions.For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B,one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.n Passage Four n People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn,and it is not easy to answer because there are many factors to take into consideration.In a first language,the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally,so the question of how hard a language is to learn is only relevant when learning a second language.n A native speaker of Spanish,for example,will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese,for example.because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish,while Chinese is very different,so first language can affect learning a second language.The greater the differences between the second language and our first,the harder it will be for most people to learn.Many people answer that Chinese is the hardest language to learn,possibly influenced by the thought of learning the Chinese writing system,and the pronunciation of Chinese does appear to be very difficult for many foreign learners.However,for Japanese speakers,who already use Chinese characters in their own language,learning writing will be less difficult than for speakers of languages using the Roman alphabet.n Some people seem to learn languages easily,while others find it very difficult.Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role,as well as each learner’s motivation for learning.If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally,they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.n No language is easy to learn well,though languages which are related to our first language are easier.Learning a completely different writing system is a huge challenge,but that does not necessarily make a language more difficult than another.In the end,it is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world.nAccording to the writer’s opinion,what is the most difficult language to learn in the world?A.Our first language.B.No such a language.C.The second language.D.Professionally used language.

题目解答
答案
B
解析
考查要点:本题主要考查学生对文章主旨的把握能力,需要结合作者的论述逻辑,判断其核心观点。
解题关键:
- 定位关键段落:文章最后一段明确总结了作者的观点,指出“无法确定某一种语言是全球最难学的”。
- 排除干扰选项:需注意选项B“没有这样的语言”与文章最后一句“it is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world”完全对应,而其他选项均未被作者支持。
选项分析
- A. Our first language:文章明确指出母语学习的差异不重要(“the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally”),排除。
- B. No such a language:最后一段直接说明“无法确定最困难的语言”,与作者结论一致。
- C. The second language:文中讨论第二语言的难易受多种因素影响(如母语差异、书写系统等),但未将其定义为“最困难”,排除。
- D. Professionally used language:职业需求可能加速学习(“learn it faster”),但未关联“难度”,排除。
核心逻辑
作者通过分析语言难度的多维因素(母语影响、书写系统、学习者差异等),最终否定存在“最困难语言”的绝对性,强调“难度”是相对概念。
