正確。In Yorkshire (英國約克郡) while 就是 until or till 的意思。
不對,since 是自從的意思。例句, 'I've lived in London since 1999'.
不對。因為during 表示在某段時間之內。例句, I fell asleep during the film.
不對,因為 for 是表示從過去某一段時間到現在為止的時間概念。例句,' I've lived in London for 6 years'.

3 : Which of the following dialects did 'The Beatles' Speak? |
 |
 |

The possible answers were:
Geordie
Cockney
R.P.
Scouse

Scouse

不對。Geordie 是英格蘭北部Tyneside這個地區特有的一種方言。不過, 'The Beatles' 并不來自這個地區。
選對了。'The Beatles'(甲殼蟲樂隊)來自英國利物浦,是利物浦人'Scousers',當地的方言是 'Scouse'.
不對。Cockney 是倫敦東區特有的一種口音,不過 'The Beatles' 并非來自倫敦。
不對。 R.P. 是標準英語語音( Received Pronunciation)的縮寫。 不過,來自利物浦的'The Beatles' 應該說什么方言呢?

語法錯誤。
語法錯誤。
就語法而言,這個選擇沒有錯。不過,語言在變化,你會發現,如今一些教育程度較低的英國人常用 innit 來代替所有的代詞。雖然口語交流沒有問題,但是,正式場合還是應該遵循語法規則。
選擇正確,不過,要知道,有良好教育背景的人一般不會是用這個俗語,雖然口語過得去,但是,不能在正式場合使用,因為不合語法習慣。
