一个英语教师的标准是什么？是不是只要是a native English speaker就可以了呢？A native English speaker是否就比a non-native English speaker强呢？该篇短文对比了对英语教师过去和现在的职业要求和资格评价的情况，介绍了现在对本族语英语教师和非本族语英语教师一视同仁的变化。
第一题 The selection of English teachers used to be mainly based on ________.
题解：本题的重要线索是题干中的“used to”。文章的第二段提到“十年前，……只要是a native English speaker，你就足以成为一名英语教师了”。换句话说，就是过去选择英语教师的标准就是看你是不是a native English speaker。所以本题的正确答案可以是：…whether they were English speakers。

要点：（1）注意答案是作“on”宾语，后面又有“是否……”，答案应该用由whether引导的名词性从句；

（2）题干中的“used to”告诉我们答案中也要用过去时态；如果信手写成whether they are English speakers是要扣0.5分的；

（3）题干中的“English teachers”是一个复数，答案中也要用复数。如果信手写成whether he was English speakers是要扣0.5分的；

第二题 What did non-native English teachers deserve but seldom enjoy?
题解：本题有较明确的线索，在第三段中有“something they have always deserved but seldom enjoyed”，本题的答案显然是这个“something”，那么它究竟指的是什么呢？答案很简单，在something的前面有一个破折号，去找一找前面的名词短语就是了，所以答案是：the same status as their native counterparts。

要点：问题是以what进行的提问而且问的是事物，所以要以名词的形式作答。由于本题较简单，扣分也比较狠。

l 可得2.0分的回答：.

1) The status that/which the native counterparts have.

2) The same status as the native English teachers

3) Having the same status as those native speakers.

l 可得1.5分的回答：

1) Same status as their native counterparts. 语法错误，应为The same status，扣0.5分。

2) There shouldn’t be linguistic discrimination. 问题以what提问，应回答具体事物，但句子内容基本切合题义，因此扣0.5分。

3) Raising them to the same status as the native speakers. 语态错误，应为被动语态，扣0.5分。

4) They were at the same status as the native English teachers. 时态错误，应为现在时，扣0.5分。

l 可得1分的回答：

1. Recognition of professional status and skills and a job. 回答包含部分答案，但不全面也不清楚，扣1分。

2. The result that they have the same status as their native counterparts. 问题问的是没有享受到的事物，回答中用the result，不太合题意，扣0.5分。超词，扣0.5分。

l 可得0.5分的回答：

1) Raising of their status. 仅提到地位的提升，但提升到什么程度这一关键内容没有涉及，因此扣1.5分。

l 可得0分的回答：

1) Linguistic discrimination.

2) Like their native counterparts.

3) The chances to be an English teacher.

4) The native English teacher

完全答非所问，不得分。
