【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了英语和其他语言之间表达上的差异，通过举例生动地说明了一些特定表达的存在或缺席的现象。
16．根据前文“Thugh yu might indeed hpe luck smiles n yur friend, neither they nr yu can d much abut the prbability.（虽然你可能真的希望好运向你的朋友微笑，但他们和你都无法对这种可能性做太多的事情。）”和后文“That is why the French, in this situatin, say “bn curage”, nt “gd luck”.（这就是为什么法国人在这种情况下会说“bn curage”，而不是“gd luck”。）”可知，本段在讨论英文中“gd luck”这一表达的不合理，前文在解释其不合理之处，后文转到法语中相应的表达，空处需继续进行解释，起到衔接的作用。C项“你真正希望他们的是勇气而不是运气。”符合语境，后文的“That”即指该项的内容。故选C。
17．根据前文“Yu may wish smene “gd mrning”, “gd afternn” r “gd night”, but nt “gd weekend”.（你可能会说“gd mrning”、“gd afternn”或“gd night”，但不会说“gd weekend”。）”可知，本段在讨论英语中一些不被允许的表达，前文用“gd weekend”这一不常见的表达举例说明，空处应该会继续讨论“gd weekend”这一表达。E项“如果你愿意，你可以说这句话，但你的邻居会奇怪地看着你。”符合语境，承接前文，和后文形成语义上的转折，其中的“strangely”和后文的“perfectly usual”形成对比。故选E。
18．空处位于段首，需统领本段内容。根据后文“English-speakers wish each ther a happy birthday, but speakers f many ther languages say “cngratulatins” as if the birthday girl had dne smething impressive merely by surviving anther year. The Dutch als say “gefeliciteerd” t members f the family, including the ne wh really deserves cngratulating: the mther. This is clse t bligatry, while it wuld cme as a strange surprise in English.（说英语的人互祝对方生日快乐，但说其他许多语言的人只会说“cngratulatins”，仿佛过生日的女孩仅仅是又活了一年就取得了令人印象深刻的成就。荷兰人还对家庭成员说“gefeliciteerd”，包括真正值得祝贺的人：母亲。这几乎是必须的，但在英语中却是一个奇怪的惊喜。）”可知，本段在讨论生日这一特殊场合中不同语言的表达差异，空处需说明特殊场合和语言差异之间的联系。A项“特殊场合是语言差异的另一个方面。”符合语境，可统领本段内容。故选A。
19．根据前文“Fr instance, the Scandinavian languages lack a wrd fr “please”, ne f the first taught in ther tngues because it sftens what therwise might be a rude-sunding request frm a nvice speaker.（例如，斯堪的纳维亚语中没有“please”这个词，这是其他语言中最早教的词之一，因为它可以软化初学者发出的听起来粗鲁的请求。）”和后文“They express this frm “May I ask fr?” in public t tacking n “s yu are sweet” in a request t a friend r family member.（他们在公众场合用“May I ask fr?”，在向朋友或家人的请求中加上“s yu are sweet”来表达这一点。）”可知，此处用斯堪的纳维亚语中缺少“请”这一表达举例子，前文说明缺少“please”可能会造成请求比较粗鲁，后文说明斯堪的纳维亚人有其他表达替代，空处应该会和前文形成语义转折，过渡到后文中他们其他的表达。G项“但他们并不粗鲁：他们通过其他的、更长的表达达到了同样的目的。”符合语境，和后文呼应，其中的“But”和前文形成转折。故选G。
20．根据前文“It is attractive t draw deep cultural cnclusins frm the presence f this r the absence f that in a language.（从一种语言中这个或那个的存在或缺失中得出深刻的文化结论是很有吸引力的。）”和后文“Fr example, the English d say the typical French wrds bn vyage and bn appétit, and there’s n reasn t stp there.（例如，英国人确实会说典型的法语单词bn vyage和bn appétit，而且没有理由止步于此。）”可知，本段从分析语言差异背后的文化因素转移到语言表达之间的借用，空处会说明语言之间的借用，从而过渡到后文的例子。F项“但没有一个词并不意味着你不能创造一个或借用一个词。”符合语境，和前文形成转折，其中的“nt having a wrd”呼应前文的“absence”。故选F。
21．D 22．F 23．G 24．A 25．E
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍了有助于成为一个更好的英语学习者的四个建议。
21．根据上文“It can be a challenge t learn a new language like English. (学习像英语这样的新语言可能是一个挑战。)”，及下文“Here are sme tips t help yu becme a better English learners. (这里有一些建议可以帮助你成为一个更好的英语学习者。)”，设空处应该是一个承上启下的句子，D项“But with right learning methds, yu can get ver it. (但是用正确的学习方法，你可以克服它。)”，句中的it代指上文的challenge，下文中的sme tips呼应D项的right learning methds，上下文衔接连贯，故选D项。
22．根据本段的中心句“Studying every day cmes first. (每天学习是第一位的。)”及空格上文“Rather than memrize passively fr a few hurs r review nce r twice a week, mst experts say shrt, regular study sessins are mre effective. (大多数专家表示，比起被动地记忆几个小时或每周复习一两次，短时间的、有规律的学习更有效。)”，设空处应就上文的shrt, regular study sessins展开，F项“As little as 30 minutes a day can imprve yur English skills ver time. (每天只要30分钟就可以提高你的英语水平。)”F项顺接了上文，上下文衔接连贯，故选F项。

(练习的不同种类将会使你的注意力集中，使你的学习更快乐。)”，G项对上文的做法作了解释，说明这么做的好处。上下文衔接连贯，故选G项。
24．该空是本段的中心句。根据后文“ Talking with English natives, watching English mvies r listening t English music whenever yu have a chance can als help yu uncnsciusly d better in prnunciatin, speech patterns as well as listening. (只要有机会，与英语母语者交谈、看英语电影或听英语音乐也能帮助你在不知不觉中提高发音、语音模式和听力。)”，本段围绕Talking、watching、listening给出学习英语的建议，A项“Speak, watch and listen.”与下文语意一致。故选A项。
25．根据本段的中心句“Writing exercises are a great way t practice. (写作练习是一种很好的练习方式。)”及上文“Take 30 minutes at the end f the class r study t write dwn what happened during yur day.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了虽然机器翻译不断蓬勃发展，但是依旧无法取代人工翻译，因为它们存在着这样或者那样的缺陷。
36．根据前文“Many peple say they will take the place f human translatrs sn.(许多人表示，他们很快就会取代人工翻译。)”此处提出了人工翻译所面临的困境。同时，根据第二段中“Machines may fail t understand culture prperly. (机器可能无法正确理解文化。)”可知，后文指出机器翻译并不能完全取代人工翻译，因为机器翻译存在着这些或者那些缺陷。所以设空处应该引起下文。C选项“It desn’t actually hld up fr sme reasns. (由于某些原因，它实际上站不住脚。)”承上启下。故选C。
37．根据后文“By cntrast，human translatrs can find the suitable equivalent (对应物) in the target language based n the cultural backgrund.(相比之下，人工翻译可以根据文化背景在目标语言中找到合适的对等物。)”可知，此处与设空处构成转折关系，此处强调人工翻译在翻译中是可以考虑到上下文内容的文化背景，设空处应该指出机器翻译不具备该项优势。B选项“Machines can’t relate wrds t the cntext.(机器无法将单词与上下文联系起来。)”承接前文。故选B。
38．本段位于段首，为本段的段旨。根据后文“In different languages, there are wrds with varius meanings, which can be a prblem fr machine translatrs. (在不同的语言中，有不同含义的单词，这可能是机器翻译的一个问题。)”可知，机器翻译并不能记住所有语言的中的词汇。D选项“Machines can’t remember wrds f all languages.(机器不能记住所有语言的单词。)”概括本段的段旨，符合语境。故选D。

40．根据前文“Machine translatrs may lse the intended tne and style existing in the riginal dcument.(机器翻译者可能会失去原文件中存在的预期语气和风格。)”可知，后文应该指出机器翻译因为失去原有文件的语气和风格，由此产生较差的翻译后果。A选项“Thus the result is a flat translatin.(因此，结果是一个平淡的翻译。)”承接前文，即机器翻译者可能会失去原文件中存在的预期语气和风格，导致翻译的结果平淡无奇，无法引起读者的共鸣。故选A。
