3．When "irregardless" was included in Merriam-Webster dictionary，it caused wide disagreements. "Irregardless" has been in widespread and near-constant use since 1795，when a newspaper called The Charleston City Gazelle of Charleston Ga first used it. "We do not make the English language，and we merely record it，" the dictionary's staff wrote in "Words of the Week".
The word's definition，when we read it，would seem to be without regard.However，Merriam-Webster defines "irregardless" as "nonstandard" but meaning the same as "regardless".According to Merriam-Webster， "Many people find 'irregardless' to be a ridiculous word，as the ir-prefix usually indicates negative meaning；however，in this case it appears to make the meaning of 'regardless' stronger."
"It's not a real word.I don't care what the dictionary says." responds author Michelle Ray，who teaches English in Silver Spring，Md.And she says she's still planning to mark "irregardless" as incorrect on her students' work.
An American newspaper the Baltimore Sun published the word in editor John McIntyre's commentary on Saturday："'Irregardless' is too a word；you just don't understand dictionaries.People get upset about the dictionary because they think it is some sort of official document.But actually，it's not.It's just lexicographers identifying words that people use and trying to find out how they are spelled，how they are pronounced，what meanings they have and where they came from."
"The dictionary's recognition doesn't enroll a word as correct in the English language，" McIntyre says. "It just says this is a word that a lot of people use in English.And here's what we know about it." So it's a word，but its use is still discouraged in formal writing.
（1）What's the function of the first paragraph？
A．To criticize the use of "irregardless".
B．To introduce the topic.
C．To make a definition of "irregardless".
D．To give an example.
（2）What can we learn from the passage？
A．"Irregardless" had been in widespread and near-constant use before 1975.
B．The dictionary's staff rarely record the English language.
C．Michelle Ray thinks the use of "irregardless" formal but incorrect.
D．People are still not encouraged to use "irregardless" in formal writing.
（3）What is the attitude of McIntyre to the appearance of "irregardless" in Merriam-Webster dictionary？
A．Favorable.
B．Conservative.
C．Indifferent.
D．Ambiguous.
（4）What can be the best title for the passage？
A．"Irregardless" Is Frequently Used in Formal Writing
B．"Irregardless" Shouldn't Be Included in the Dictionary
C．Regardless of What You Think，"Irregardless" Is a Word
D．Experts Can't Agree on the Meaning of "Irregardless"組卷：17引用：3難度：0.7

When I was young，my father was quiet and seldom talked to me，so we were not so close.The times I loved most were the special moments we had jye.aigether.To this day，I still hold those memories dear.When I had a son，I was always worried that my absence might have an impact on his future life and that I might miss all his milestones since I travelled a lot.I knew how important it was for a boy to have his father near.I decided that if I couldn't be with my son as often as possible，I would make every effort to create special moments for us.
When my son was five，I was sent to the branch in Shanghai，which meant I had to be away from my family for nearly a year.The hardest time for me was the summer and winter vocations when my son was out of school and families could get together doing something fun.To ease the separation，we kept writing letters to share any precious moments in our life.In one letter home，I promised my son that we would make a lantern together and sign up for the community lantern design competition on the Lantern Festival.
Everywhere I went on business，I would pick up things for our lantern adventure and send them to him.I bought a couple of handbooks on how to DIY a lantern，and I sent those on.I found special bamboo for the frame.I sent him one piece at a time，carefully packed.When I was in Hangzhou，I found the most beautiful silk with gold threads woven through it.Perfect lantern material.I sent it home.I found a golden Chinese knot that could be attached to the bottom of the lantern.I sent that home，along with some auspicious cloud（祥云） paper-cuttings that would serve as splendid decorations.Then I was on my way home.
注意：
（1）續(xù)寫(xiě)詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
（2）請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
I arrived home at night and couldn't wait to see my son.
Then，the lantern design competition finally arrived.
