3、t. But, at last, no answer has been acquired. 目前，世界上有大量的人把英语作为母语或第二语言。而且，它也被新闻媒体广泛地使用。结果，各种不同的英语出现了。哪种英语是更好的？这很难回答。当人们混合着方言说英语时，你能区分开它们吗？专家们确信哪种英语好并不重要，只要说话的人彼此明白就行重要的是交流本身。有些英语立即能识别出，而且易于理解；有些英语可能是不明确的。因此有一场哪种英语是最好的英语的辩论。但是，最后却没有得到什么结果。加餐练(一) 完形阅读组合练.完形填空Before 1066, in the place that we now call G

29、ions 根据语境可知，面试问题有很多，因此应该用 question 的复数形式questions。6whose whose 在此处引导定语从句，表示 “的” ，指代前面的“our ELT teacher”，在从句中作定语。7in play an important role in 为固定搭配，意为“在中发挥着重要作用”。8its 此处用形容词性物主代词修饰后面的名词 participants。9was offered 宾语 contract 和主语 I 之间为被动关系，所以谓语动词应该用被动语态；且该动作发生在过去，故用一般过去时的被动语态。10beginning look forward
30、to doing sth.为固定搭配，意为“期待做某事”，此处的 to为介词，后面加 v.ing 形式作宾语。.短文改错March 12 was memorable because of our class had a meaningful experience on that day.
