Question

Japanese people work very hard at studying English. They start studying English at the age of 12. Most young Japanese people spend a lot of time and work hard at studying English, but Japanese people are not good at English. Here are the reasons:
There are few people from English-speaking countries in Japan. They don’t have enough chances to speak with them.
Japan is an island(島)country and they feel that other countries are far away. So they don’t use English very often. And the Japanese feel that it is strange(奇怪的) to talk to each other in English.
The Japanese education doesn’t always follow the educational trends(趨勢(shì)) in the world. It puts a lot of importance on grammar and vocabulary, and less on speaking, listening and reading skills.
Many Japanese students’ English becomes worse(更糟糕的) after they go to university(大學(xué)).They have to learn English again if they work in English-speaking countries.
Sometimes the Japanese feel shy about speaking wrong or broken English.

解析【小題1】本文第一段第二行有一句Most young Japanese people spend a lot of time and work hard at studying English, 意思為絕大多數(shù)日本年輕人花費(fèi)很多時(shí)間并且很努力的學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)，故本題選B。
【小題2本文最后一段第一句是Many Japanese students’ English becomes worse(更糟糕的) after they go to university，意思為許多日本學(xué)生在上大學(xué)之后英語(yǔ)變得更差，故本題選B。
【小題3】本文第四段有一句It puts a lot of importance on grammar and vocabulary, and less on speaking, listening and reading skills.意思為日本人在英語(yǔ)的教育中看重的是語(yǔ)法和詞匯，在聽(tīng)說(shuō)讀方面關(guān)注的太少，所以日本的教育應(yīng)該更多的注重這方面，故本題選A。
【小題4】本文主要談?wù)撊毡驹谟⒄Z(yǔ)上學(xué)的非常差的原因，日本以英語(yǔ)作為母語(yǔ)的外國(guó)人太少，日本在英語(yǔ)教育中很少注重聽(tīng)說(shuō)的練習(xí)，所以本題選C。
