This is because the speaking situation makes it clear what speakers mean when they use words.So, when you have a conversation with your friend, the knowledge that your neighbor has a dog tells your friend what the word “dog” probably means in that situation.The speaking situation also helps make language clearer.For example, the word “bank” has two possible meanings.It can mean “a place where people keep money”， but it can also mean “the side of a river”. So the sentence “I went to the bank” is not clear.It could mean “I went to the side of a river” or it could mean “I went to the place where my money is kept”. However, if the speaker is talking about fishing or going to the mountains, others probably know that “bank” means “the side of a river”The things that speakers say may not always be clear.Sometimes the words are not very particular, but the speaking situation can provide the meaning.Other times words may have many meanings.Then the speaking situation limits the right meaning.This extra knowledge from the situation is very important to understand language.【解题导语】本文讲述了语境对语言的理解起着很大作用。1The passage is mainly about _Athe best time and place to talk to others Bhow speaking situation helps language work Cwhat to say in difficult situationsDhow our language worksB解析：主旨大意题。本文讲述了语境对语言的理解起着很大作用，故选B。2According to the passage, we can safely say that _Aa speaking situation does not affect the meaning of wordsBspeaking is not very natural for most people Ca speaking situation is not important Dpeople often do not consider how talking works D解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“We do not usually think about how our language works.Talking is such a natural, everyday activity that we do not often stop to consider how it actually works.”可知，选D。3By using the example of the word “dog”， the writer wants to show that _Aa word may need to be explained in a conversationBa word may have different meaningsCspeaking situation helps people understand the particular meaning of a wordDthe meaning of words is not particularC解析：推理判断题。根据第二段的第一句话“First, the speaking situation helps make words more particular.”和下文的“For example.”可知，下文正是用“dog”一词举例来论证第二段的第一句话，故选C。4According to the passage, we can know the meaning of the word “bank” by referring to _Athe time and the place where the conversation happensBthe occupation of the person who uses the wordCearlier or later parts of the conversationDa reliable dictionaryC解析：细节理解题。根据第三段所讲，作者用“bank”一词举例说明对话中这个词之前或之后的部分决定了这个词的具体含义，故选C。 语法填空(2019辽宁实验中学高一期末)Keeping a diary in English is one of the most 1._(effect) ways to improve our English writing ability.2_(compare) with other forms of writing, it is shorter and takes 3._(little) time.
