本文介紹了改善溝通技巧的建議。 放慢說話的速度；學(xué)習(xí)句子，而不僅僅是單詞毫無疑問；試著傾聽。

【1】句意：因此以下的建議能夠幫助你克服困難。

suggestions建議；advice建議；tips技巧。此空是句子的主語，根據(jù)空后助動詞does可知，此空為可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)或者不可數(shù)名詞，選項中advice是不可數(shù)名詞。故選B。

【2】句意：如果你還在學(xué)習(xí)的早期階段，不要擔(dān)心犯錯。

end up結(jié)束；lay out展示；安排；worry about擔(dān)心。根據(jù)“If you're at the early stages of learning…”可知語言學(xué)習(xí)的初期，人們通常會害怕犯錯，因此此空表示“擔(dān)心”。故選C。

【3】句意：當(dāng)與他人交流時，更重要的是讓自己被理解。

understand明白；理解，動詞原形；to understand不定式；understood過去分詞。make sb done 過去分詞作賓補，表示“被理解”。故選C。

【4】句意：試著放慢你說話的速度，你就會發(fā)現(xiàn)最簡單的方法就是改善你溝通技巧最好的方法。

slowing down放慢；taking down拿下；putting down寫下；放下。根據(jù)“Slow Down Your Speaking Speed”可知，本段主要介紹的就是放慢語速。故選A。

【5】句意：試著放慢你說話的速度，你就會發(fā)現(xiàn)最簡單的方法就是改善你溝通技巧最好的方法。

improving改善，動名詞；to improve不定式；of improve of+動詞原形。way to do sth不定式作定語。故選B。

【6】句意：不幸地是，很多人用心學(xué)習(xí)單詞，但是不知道怎么在句中使用。

Luckily幸運地是，副詞；Unluckily不幸地是，副詞；Unlucky不幸的，形容詞。空后有逗號，此空是副詞修飾整個句子，排除C；根據(jù)“but have no idea how to use them in a sentence.”用心學(xué)習(xí)單詞，不會使用是不幸的。故選B。

【7】句意：事實上，當(dāng)你學(xué)習(xí)一個新單詞的時候，試著記住很多包含那個單詞的句子。

includes包含，第三人稱單數(shù)形式；including現(xiàn)在分詞；include動詞原形。此句是when引導(dǎo)的時間狀語從句的主句，不缺少謂語動詞，因此此空是現(xiàn)在分詞作后置定語。故選B。

【8】句意：當(dāng)你用外國語講話時，你可能會關(guān)注你講的話是否正確，你忘記了聽其他人說話。

another另一個，后接名詞單數(shù)或單獨使用；the others特指，其他的人；others其他人。此處表示泛指其他人說的話，排除B；another作主語時be動詞用單數(shù)形式，排除A；others作從句主語，be動詞用are。故選C。

【9】句意：這是一個很大的錯誤，因為他們可能會用一會你需要用的精確詞匯。

real真正的；exact準(zhǔn)確的；精確的；some一些。the后接形容詞作定語修飾名詞，排除C；根據(jù)“you'll need later on”可知，此處表示“一會你需要用的精確詞匯”，B選項符合句意。故選B。

【10】句意：如果你想改善你的溝通技能，你可以試試以上技巧。這需要時間。

pays，takes和spends均有“花費”的含義，pay和spend主語是人，此處主語是物，因此用take。故選B。
