2024-2025学年福建省福州市长乐第一中学高一上学期第二次月考英语试题 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (共 15 小题：每小题2分，满分 30分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Some people say global English is no longer just controlled by British or American English, but is running free and developing uniquely local forms. Can you figure out the following terms “I like your smile, but unlike you put your shoes on my face.” This is a way of saying “Keep off the grass.” Or “people mountain, people sea”, which means “very crowded”. These examples are what we call Chinglish. When it comes to Chinglish, if all you know is “good good study, day day up”, you will be considered “out man”.
