"You understand grandmother when she talks to you, don’t you,
darling?" The girl nods. Johnson met her—and her Danish mother and
English father—at the airport. The parents were eager to discuss their
experience of fostering up their daughter bilingually in London. It isn’t 【S1】______
easy: the husband does not speak Danish, because the child hears the 【S2】______
language only from her mother, who has come to accept that she will reply
in English.
This can be painful. Not sharing your first language with loved ones
is hard. Not passing it on your own child can be especially tough. Many 【S3】______
immigrant parents feel a sense of failure: they share stories on parenting
forums and social media, hope to find the secret to nurturing bilingual 【S4】______
children successfully.
Children are linguistic sponges, but this doesn’t mean that cursory
exposure is enough. They must hear a language quite a bit to understand
it—and used it often to be able to speak it comfortably. This is mental 【S5】______
work, and a child who doesn’t have a motive to say a language—either a 【S6】______
need or a strong desire—will often avoid it. Children’s brains are already
busy enough.
So languages often wither and die when parents move abroad.
Consider America. Typically, first generation born in America is 【S7】______
bilingual, and the second is monolingual—in English, the children often
struggling to speak easily with their immigrant grandparents.
In the past, governments discouraged immigrant families off keeping 【S8】______
their languages. Teddy Roosevelt worried that America would become a
" polyglot boarding-house". These days, officials tend to be more 【S9】______
interventionist: some even see a valuable resource in immigrants’ language
abilities. Yet many factors conspire to ensure that children still lose their
parents’ languages, or never learn it. 【S10】______
【S5】
选项
答案
used一use
解析
时态错误。本句意为“他们必须听得足够多,直到能够理解,并且用得足够多,直到能够顺畅地表达。”分析句子结构可知,“多听”和“多用”是并列关系,与情态动词must一起构成谓语,故将used改为其动词原形use。
