英語部分：14：00-15：30 共85道 滿分150分。
第一部分：同義詞填空，20個
就是給出4個詞，選出一個填到一個句子中，感覺和以前六級英語的同義詞填空不一樣，六機考的詞基本上是考認不認識，認識的話基本都能對，中行考的是詞義辨析。
現在只記得4個了：如** approval _____ (A. rate, C. ratio)** ；**an_____ interview (A. exclusive, B. exceptional )***；***a _____ monument (A. perpetual , C. lasting )；***____ on sb. to do sth.*** (A. prevail C. persuade，答案選A ) .
第二部分：改錯，10個
就是給出一個句子，劃線4個部分，讓選出哪個有錯，和以前託福語法改錯格式差不多。現在就記得一點了：an abundance of evidences, 應該選B. 還有一個enable sb. to do 加下劃線了，不過這個是對的。
A B
第三部分：完型填空 20個
主要是關於對待非母語問題，說美國人到了美國大陸，要求印第安人不能使用自己的母語，要將其去除，其中有個選項是eradicate，否則就會受到懲罰，有個選項是punishment。因此印第安人就刻意不把母語pass on 給下一代。德國也是如此，要求是用德語，在教堂裏，學校裏還有什麼地方都要講德語，把其他語言書籍都燒掉了。後來說到中國人，雖然在國外上語言課，但是都是segregated class，裏面全是中國人。中國人都喜歡和中國人在一起，比如Chinatown.語言成了影響人們找工作的問題之一。Blabla~~~~
第四部分：四篇閱讀理解
第一篇：居然回來搜了下找到原題，不過沒答案。
How many people in the world speak English as a first a native language? Exact information on this point is not available, but an estimate of 230 million cannot be very wide of the mark. Of these, 145 million live the United States, a little less than 55 million in the United Kingdom, and something like 30 million in the British dominions and colonial possessions. It is even more difficult to arrive at a figure representing those who speak English as a second or auxiliary language. A reasonably conservative conclusion would thus place the total number of speakers of English between 300 million and 325 million, about one seventh of the world’s population.
If one thinks solely in terms of total number of speakers, it must be conceded that some authorities place Chinese, the various Indic languages, and Russian ahead of English, others only Chinese. Both Chinese and Indic, however, are terms covering a large number of mutually unintelligible dialects; and though the number of speakers of these languages may seem impressive, communication within the language is much more restricted than in English. Total numbers, moreover, constitute but one phase of the matter. The factor of geographical distribution is equally, possibly even more, significant. English is spoken as a first or native language on at least four continents of the world, Russian on two, Chinese and the Indic language on one, English is without question the closest approach to a world language today. It goes without saying that no two persons ever have an identical command of their common language. Certainly they have not precisely the same vocabulary. There are at least minor differences in pronunciation: indeed the same individual will not pronounce his vowels and consonants in absolutely identical fashion every time he utters them. Everyone possesses in addition certain individual traits of grammatical form and syntactical order, constituting that peculiar and personal quality of language which we term style. All of this is implicit in the well-known phrase, “Style is the man”. No two men are identical; no two styles are the same. If this is true of but two persons, the potential of difference resident in a language spoken by more than 200 million truly staggers the imagination.
