45. to memorize
46. their 47. If
48. advice 49. who
50. writing
【解析】本文讲述了如何学好一门外语。

41. 考查代词用法。

根据前文的the language 为单数，故此处应填入指物的代词it来指代前文的the language，故填入it。

43. 考查success的用法。

success in sth or in doing sth 在某事上成功或成功做某事。

故这里要填入in。

44. 考查冠词用法。

此处memory为单数，所以要用不定冠词a来修饰，且位于句首需要大写，句子译为“一个好的记忆具有极大帮助”。

45. 考查enough固定搭配。

be not enough to do sth 做某事是不够的。

给出的单词提示是memorize，故应填入
to memorize。

47. 考查if引导的条件状语从句。

句意：如果我们很满意自己仅仅只是记住了一少部分关于语言的规则，那么我们就不能够算是真正的学习了语言。

因位于句首，首字母应大写，故填入If。

48. 考查advise的名词形式。

介词后面要用名词，
a good piece of advice 表示“一个好的建议”。

49. 考查定语从句用法。

此处those指代下文那些学习语言的人，所以应用who来引导该定语从句，填入who。

50. 考查practise的用法。

practise doing sth 练习做某事。

故此处应填入write的V-ing 形式，即填入writing。

when后的从句谓语动词既可是延续性动词,也可是短暂性动词,而且还可作并列连词,译为“这时”.但以下句型一定用when,作并列连词：

（1）.We were about to set out when it began to rain.我们刚要出发天突然下雨了.
（2）.He had hardly sat down when his mobile rang.他刚一坐下手机就响了.
（3）.I was walking along the bank of the river when I fell into it.我正沿河岸散步突然掉进水里.
while后的从句谓语动词只能是延续性动词,强调主从句的两个动词同时发生；while也可作并列连词,表示两个动作的对比,译为“而”“然而”.as则表示两个变化中的动作的同时性,译为“一边…一边…”.
1.While his mother was cooking in the kitchen,the boy fell asle ep in the chair.(在一个延续动作过程中发生另一个动
作)2.He hurried home,looking behind as he went.他匆匆回家,边走边往后看。

本题第3小题，固定结构，…was doing sth. when…表示正在做某事就在这时……。

故把while---when。

【解析】试题分析：本文是一篇书信，是提纲式作文。

它提供的文字素材一般较为简洁，但写作文时要用上这类写作题, 考生应注意以下几点： 1. 切忌写成“填表题”。

一定要用短文的形式来表达。

2. 切忌“一对一直译”。

提纲中的汉语提示有些概括性强、比较简洁,有些较为抽象、复杂, 所以表达时切忌逐字逐句机械地直译、硬译。

要灵活调整信息、适当补充成分、采用意译法等写出符合英语表达习惯的文章。

3. 巧妙组合信息。

要善于根据提纲上下、左右的关系整合要点。

若是因果关系, 就可以考虑用for, because, therefore等来组合信息。

4. 避免句式单一。

表格里某一栏或列的内容一般用来表达同类信息, 如建议、方法等。

为了避免句式重复、单调、呆板, 我们要学会用不同的表达方式表达同类的信息。

【名师点睛】
本文是一篇书信。

格式正确，内容符合要求，结构布局合理，文中使用高级句子。

I’d like to tell you that our school has worked out a new progra m.that引导宾语从句；
