Besides，education，social activities，etc. are conducted in English. Across but for the most part，Americans speak one mon language. This language is sometimes called American English.However，not everyone in the USA is a native speaker of English. Most immigrants (移民)are speakers of other languages. There are hundreds of munities around the USA where English is not the most monly used languages. Chinese，Italian，German，Greek，Spanish and French are all spoken in various munities in the USA. Spanish is the second most monly spoken language after English.It is widely spoken in New York and across the southern part of the country. For speakers of other languages，learning English is important，but teaching people to speak English as a second language was given little attention. Non-English speakers were expected to “pick up ” the language by meeting with others in public. Recently，this has changed.Today，most large public schools and munity colleges have ESL(English as a Second Language )programs; American English teachers feel that English students should learn the language the way they will use it. Therefore，ESL programs offer different English lessons to different students. Some programs teach students to municate in English in public. Other programs teach the kind of English people who will need for their jobs. American ESL instructional methods do not lay emphasis on grammar or translation，but on the importance of munication. The goal is to get the English learners to learn by using the language.5.In the past the non-English immigrants_.A. didnt know how to learn English B. found that English was not importantC. learned English through booksD. paid special attention to teaching English6._ is the most widely used language except English in the US.A.ESLB.

You have a job, a family and youre about 40 years old. Wele to our future life.Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror. “Turn red,” you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronics (智能电子元件) are rearranged in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe youre 40. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old. Youre not even middle aged!As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal（谷物） into a bowl, you hear, “To lose weight, you shouldnt eat that,” from your shoes. They read the tiny electronic code on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details. You decide to listen to your shoes. “Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?” A list of possible foods appears on the counter as the kitchen cheeks its food supplies.“Ready for your trip to space,” you ask your son and daughter. In 2005 only specially-trained astronauts went into space-and very few of them. Today anyone can go to space for daytrips or longer vacations. Your best friend even works in space. Handing your children three strawberries each, you add, “The doctor said you need these for space travel.” Thanks to medical advances, vaccination shots (防疫针) are a thing of the past. Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines(疫苗). With the strawberries in their mouths, the kids head for the front door.Its time for you to go to work. Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors. “My office, autopilot,” you mand. Your car drives itself down the road and move smoothly into traffic on the highway.

Starting and keeping friendship requires effort and mitment.Many of us let our lives bee so busy with work and other responsibilities that we dont get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal（叙旧）with the friends, relatives and acquaintances we already have. Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to accept more of their invitations you receive from others can improve your social life in a hurry!Are there any people you could call right now and be sure to receive a pleasant wele? Are there people that you could count onto help you in time of difficulty? Can you have close talks with them? Do you have fun when you are together? Are you happy to have them in your life? If you havent seen much of them lately, is it because you have bee too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?

Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want? If you have bee too busy for friends, why has this happened?

Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be appointed to others? If so, why? Do you believe that everything depends on you? Examine whether the way you are now spending your time accurately reflects your deepest values and priorities.
