任務(wù)型閱讀，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，回答下列問(wèn)題。
The English language is changing all the time. New words are created, like DIY, SDA and e-mail. How do words come into English? Many words are borrowed from other languages. From Chinese, for example, English has borrowed words like kowtow and kung fu.

For example, smog comes from smoke and fog. Some words come from longer words, like TV from television, and math from mathematics. Don’t you think all these make English an interesting language?

小題1:Is the English language changing all the time?
                                                      
小題2: Are many English words borrowed from other languages?

小題2:根據(jù)Many words are borrowed from other languages. From Chinese, for example,可知為肯定答案。
小題3:根據(jù)From Chinese, for example, English has borrowed words like kowtow and kung fu.可知kung fu這個(gè)單詞來(lái)自中文。
小題4: 根據(jù)For example, smog comes from smoke and fog.可知smog來(lái)自smoke和fog。
小題5:根據(jù)like TV from television,可知答案為TV。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：本文主要介紹了英文中一些詞匯的來(lái)源問(wèn)題，閱讀中注意作者舉出的具體例子。由于這篇短文比較簡(jiǎn)單，略讀一邊短文，就可以帶著問(wèn)題，再讀短文。然后找出相關(guān)語(yǔ)句，寫(xiě)出答案。回答問(wèn)題時(shí)要注意，一定要先弄清問(wèn)的是什么？比如“What is short form television?這句話的意思就是，我們常說(shuō)的電視這個(gè)單詞的縮寫(xiě)是什么？”，答案人稱和數(shù)要與問(wèn)題保持一致，個(gè)別問(wèn)題可以用原文直接回答，大部分需要改變?nèi)朔Q。總之，要做好此類題型，平時(shí)還得加強(qiáng)積累，多做練習(xí)。
