And when my puter39。s disk burner (刻錄機(jī)) went out at 6 in the morning, he spent a college student39。s week39。s worth of ines to replace it. Why would he go into all that trouble? Because he knew that out of all the other important things he could be doing, this was imperative to me. He knew because it was once important to him.

We all use them, often without noticing what we39。re doing. I was arranging to meet someone for dinner last week, and I said I39。ll pencil it in my diary, and my friend said You can ink it in, meaning that it was a firm arrangement not a tentative one! Many of these new verbs are linked to new technology. An obvious example is the word fax. We all got used to sending and receiving faxes, and then soon started talking about faxing something and promising we39。d fax it immediately. Then along came , and we were soon all ing each other madly. How did we do without it? I can hardly imagine life without my daily s. Email reminds me, of course, of my puter and its software, which has produced another couple of new verbs. On my puter I can bookmark those pages from the World Wide Web that I think I39。ll want to look at again, thus saving all the effort of remembering their addresses and calling them up from scratch. I can do the same thing on my PC, but there I don39。t bookmark。 I favorite—ing from favorite pages, so the verb es from an adjective not a noun.

Or I can text them, write a few words suggesting when and where to meet, for example. How long will it be before I can mobile them, that is, phone them using my mobile? I haven39。t heard that verb yet, but I39。m sure I will soon. Perhaps I39。ll start using it myself!（1）I39。ll pencil it in my diary in the second paragraph probably means . was a firm arrangement prefers a pencil to a pen arrangement should be written as a diary was an uncertain arrangement（2）A website address can be easily found if it has been______. （3）Which of the following has not been used as a verb yet? （4）The best title for this passage is____. and Language. of the English language Technology and New words Verbs from Nouns【答案】 （1）D（2）A（3）B（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，通過多個(gè)例子告訴我們很多名詞都已經(jīng)轉(zhuǎn)換成了動(dòng)詞。說明詞匯是并不斷的在變化。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“meaning that it was a firm arrangement not a tentative one!”用鉛筆寫意為著不是最終的決定，只是臨時(shí)的決定，故選D。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“I favorite—ing from ‘favorite pages’, so the verb is derived from an adjective not a noun.”我把這些網(wǎng)站設(shè)置成我最喜歡的網(wǎng)站，通過這種方法可以讓我很快就找到這些網(wǎng)站。故選A。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“and we were soon all ing each other mad
