语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，作者在文章中说明了自己学习英语的四个方法：预习、记笔记、阅读和用英语交流。
1.【答案】To
2.【答案】correctly
【解析】考查副词。在英语中通常使用副词做状语修饰形容词、副词或动词，本句中使用correctly修饰谓语动词answer a question。句意：每当我正确地回答出一个问题时，我就有一种强烈的成就感。
3.【答案】expressions
【解析】考查名词。形容词useful有用的 ，通常在句中做定语修饰名词，所以本句使用动词express的名词expression，且使用复数形式与前面的points、rules和后面的words构成并列关系。句意：重要的语言点、语法规则、有用的短语和关键词……。
4.【答案】what
【解析】考查名词性从句。本句中what引导起这个宾语从句，并在句中作为动词短语take down的宾语。句意：重要的语言点、语法规则、有用的短语和关键词都是我要记下来的内容。
5.【答案】understanding
【解析】考查固定搭配。短语have a better understanding of更好地理解……；句意：课后，我整理好笔记以便于我对所记内容有更好的理解。
6.【答案】widely
【解析】考查副词。本句中分词widely作为状语修饰谓语部分read English materials阅读英语材料。而wide是形容词，不能修饰谓语动词部分，形容词通常在句中做定语修饰名词。句意：为了培养我对英语的兴趣，课后我广泛地阅读英语资料。
7.【答案】Chatting
【解析】考查非谓语动词。本句中动名词短语chatting with my teachers and classmates在句中作主语，谓语动词使用单数形式。动词原形是不能在句中作主语的。句意：和老师同学聊天也是我学习英语的方法之一。(也可以用To chat，但是根据要求只能填一个词)。
8.【答案】in
9.【答案】gives
【解析】考查主谓一致。本句的主语是名词短语free expression in English自由的用英语表达，所以谓语动词使用单数形式。意为“自由地用英语表达给了我自豪感”。
10.【答案】which
【解析】考查定语从句。本句中which指代上文的先行词a sense of achievement自豪感，在句中作主语。句意：自由地用英语表达给了我自豪感，这种自豪感转而鼓励我更好地学习英语。

11
.
The question “Who am I?” is frequently asked by TCKs. They have
12
a host of cultural identities, and have built relationships to all the cultures,
13
not having full ownership of any. Although elements from each culture are absorbed into TCK’s life experience, the sense of
14
is in relationship to others of a similar background.
As you enter into the world of TCKs, one might suspect they are no
15
. But it is
16
, after spending only a short time with them, that they bring a deep knowledge from inside and a special ability to compare
17
and local issues. They represent many countries and cultures. They are the future cross-culturalists and
18
future politicians, diplomats, government employees and educators. They certainly experience a different lifestyle compared to their mono-cultural peers but we can benefit from their global and
19
lives. So, whatever one chooses to label the international students as—TCKs, Global Nomads, or Global Souls—we will gain unbelievable
