①A tree has roots(根). People have roots too. If you get to the root of a problem, you will solve it. It's the same thing with words. Dig deeply into a big, unfamiliar(不熟悉的) word and you will understand where it came from.
②As readers, especially those reading in a second language, we need to deal with the text as if we were detectives(侦探) looking for information to unlock the unknown. Like any good detective arriving on the crime scene, the first thing to do when meeting a new and difficult word is to judge the situation, to look at everything that is known and see if it helps us to understand what it means.
③As you know, prefixes(前缀) and suffixes(后缀) can be added to the beginning or end of words to change the meaning. Know them, and you will have the word building power. But root words are the key. Take time to learn a few of these, put them in your memory, and you will become a master word detective.
④Let's look at one common root word used in English. “Alter” from the Latin word means “other”. When you meet this root word, you know that the bigger word has something to do with “other”. Check the word “alternate”. Can you find the Latin root in it?
· If you and your friend like to eat out, first you pay and the other pays the next time. You are alternating paying.
· If you go to the movies on alternate Saturdays, you go on one Saturday, but not the other Saturday.
· If you have no alternative, you have no other choice.
⑤Learn as many root words as possible in the language you are studying. Then use your “rooting for words” skills. Like any new skill, practice and hard work are always paid back.

D. 60 students were present at the sports meeting.
( B )5. Which of the following shows the structure(结构) of the passage? (① = Paragraph 1)

答案： 1. C 词义猜测题。根据文章第二段“the first thing to do when meeting a new and difficult word is to judge the situation，to look at everything that is known and see if it helps us to understand what it means.”可知，当遇到一个新的难词时，首先要做的是判断情况，看看已知的一切是否有助于我们理解它的含义。可推知“it”指的是“a new and difficult word”。故选 C。
2. C 词义猜测题。根据方框中“If you and your friend like to eat out，first you pay and the other pays the next time. You are alternating paying.”可知，如果你和你的朋友喜欢外出吃饭，第一次你付钱，下次另一个人付钱。你们是轮流付钱。因此，“alternating paying”指的是轮流付钱。故选 C。
3. D 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Let's look at one common root word used in English.‘Alter’from the Latin word means‘other’.”可知，作者通过举例来解释词根的概念。故选 D。
4. A 推理判断题。根据题干可知，“Sen”来自拉丁语，可推知，senior 使用了这个词根，表示“年长的”。选项 A“我哥哥比我大两岁。”与之符合。故选 A。
5. B 篇章结构题。根据文章结构，第一段引入词根的概念，第二段通过类比说明如何通过词根理解单词，第三段说明单词的构成和词根的应用，第四段进一步举例说明词根学习法，三、四段并列，第五段总结学习词根的重要性。故选 B。
