There are 10 provinces in the country but only one of theseQuebec is known as “French Canada”. This is because it was founded by French explorers while British adventurers discovered the rest. Canada left the British empire(帝国) in 1867 to become an independent country and English and French have been recognized as the official languages ever since.Most people speak English as their first language and the two national television networks broadcast in English throughout the country. Apart from in Quebec and a few places on the east coast, French television is very rare. The same goes for traffic signs and menus, for example, outside of Quebec, there are only a few places where youll see traffic signs in French. In restaurants, its almost impossible to find French on the menu unless you are in the heartland (中心地带) of French Canada. However, all products sold in Canada must, by law, have labels (标签) and instructions in both languages.In Canadas English speaking provinces, official bilingualism (双语) means that students can choose to complete a special French language course. Under this program, they are taught most of their subjects in French. If a student begins the course in kindergarten (幼儿园) or Grade One, it is likely that all their lessons will be in French. However, if they start at junior high school, 25 percent of the teaching will continue to be in English.21. Which country controlled Canada before its independence?A. France. B.America . C.Britain.

The HR manager interviewed him and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test. You are employed, he said. Give me your e-mail address and Ill send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start. The man replied, But I dont have a computer, neither an e-mail.

The farm animals, who are social and have large brains, were previously known to be able to recognize one another, as well as familiar humans. However, their ability to recognize human faces from photos alone is novel. The recent study, the results of which were published in the journal Royal Society showed that the woolly creatures could be trained to recognize still images of human faces, including those of former President Barack Obama and actress Emma Watson. Initially, the sheep were trained to approach certain images by being given food rewards. Later, they were able to recognize the image for which they had been rewarded. The sheep could even recognize images of faces shown at an angle, though their ability to do so declined by about 15 percent - the same rate at which a humans ability to perform the same task declines.“Anyone who has spent time working with sheep will know that they are intelligent, individual animals who are able to recognize their handlers,” said Professor Jenny Morton, who led the Cambridge study. “Weve shown with our study that sheep have advanced face-recognition abilities, comparable with those of humans and monkeys.”Recognizing faces is one of the most important social skills for human being, and some disorders of the brain, including Huntingtons disease, affect this ability.“Sheep are long-lived and have brains that are similar in size and complexity to those of some monkeys. That means they can be useful models to help us understand disorders of the brain, such as Huntingtons disease, which develops over a long time and affects cognitive abilities. Our study gives us another way to monitor how these abilities change.” Morton said.28. According to the new research, whats unusual about sheep?A. They have large brains. B. They can recognize their owners.C. They can recognize human faces from photograph. D. They can tell animals from humans.29. How did the researchers train the sheep?A. By giving food rewards.B. By showing photos of humans and monkeys by turns.C. By guiding them to follow their handlers.D. By showing photos of famous people.30. Whats the best title of the passage?A. A Wonderful Scientist B. How Sheep Recognize Each OtherC. A New discovery about Sheep D.

It has been around for a long time. People have been playing it for over 500 years. Chess is based on an even older game from India. The chess we play is from Europe.Chess is a two-player game. One player uses the white pieces. The other uses the black pieces. Each piece moves in a special way. One piece is called the king. Each player has one. The players take turns moving their pieces. If a player lands on a piece, he or she takes it. The game ends when a player loses his or her king. There are a few more rules, but those are the basics.Some people think that chess is more than a game. They think that it makes the mind stronger. Good chess players use their brains. They take their time. They think about what will happen next. These skills are useful in life and in chess. Chess is kind of like a workout for the mind.You dont always have lots of time to think when playing chess. There is a type of chess with short time limits. Its called blitz chess(闪电棋).In blitz chess, each player gets ten minutes to use for the whole game. Your clock runs during your turn. You hit the time clock after you move. This stops your clock. It also starts the other players clock. If you run out of time, you lose. G
