问题     When I first entered university, my aunt, who is an English professor, gave me a new English dictionary. I was【C1】______to see that it was an English dictionary,【C2】______known as a monolingual (单语 的) dictionary.【C3】______it was a dictionary intended for non-native learners, none of my classmates had one. But, to be honest, I found it extremely【C4】______to use at first. I would look up words in the dictionary and【C5】______not fully understand the meaning. I was used to the【C6】______bilingual (双语的) dictionaries, in which the words are【C7】______both in English and Chinese. I really【C8】______why my aunt decided to make things so difficult for me. Now, after studying English at university for three years, I【C9】______that monolingual dictionaries are better【C10】______learning a foreign language.
    As I found out, there is【C11】______often NO perfect equivalence between two words in two languages. My aunt even goes so far as to【C12】______that a Chinese "equivalent" can never give you the【C13】______meaning of a word in English!【C14】______. she insisted that I read the definition of a word in a monolingual dictionary when I wanted to get a better understanding【C15】______its meaning.【C16】______.I have come to see what she meant.
    Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important【C17】______. This dictionary uses a【C18】______number of words, around 2,000, in its definitions. When I read these definitions, I am【C19】______exposed to the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas.【C20】______this, I can express myself more easily in English.
【C4】
选项 A、difficult
B、interesting
C、reluctant
D、practical
答案A
解析 语义衔接题。由下文提到的I would look up words in the dictionary．．．not fully understand the meaning．I was used to the…bilingual dictionaries…(我在这本字典中查词……不完全明白词的含义。我习惯使用……双语字典……)可推知，作者开始使用这本字典时应该会觉得有困难，故答案为[A]difficult”困难的”。后面提到的whymyauntdecidedtomakethings sodifficultforme对本题有提示作用。
