almost exhausted was still bravely doing her best when a dove saw her. moved with pity, the bird threw her a blade of grass, which supported her like a raft, and thus the ant reached the bank again. while she was resting and drying herself in the grass, she heard a man come near. he was walking along barefooted with a gun in his hand. as soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it. he would certainly have done so, but the ant bit him in the foot just as he raised his gun to fire. he stopped to see what had bit him, and the dove immediately flew away. it was an animal much weaker and smaller than herself that had saved her life.31. the ant could not reach the side though _. a. she cried for help b. she asked the dove to save her c. she tried very hard d. she could smell well32.

375 million people around the globe use english as their native language, the number of people using it as a second language has already been well over that figure (数字).it is said that by the end of 2000, one billion people could use english to communicate with others, including both native speakers and non-native speakers.“the rise and fall of a language is closely connected with that countrys economic(经济的) strength and development potential (潜力).” rhodri jones, the english 2000 manager of the elt group of the british council said.an expert who has given many lectures on the future of english said the economic boots（快速发展）in asia would raise(提高) the position of the chinese and hindi languages. therefore, the english language is facing a serious problem. where will english turn in the next fifty years or the century?the recently introduced book from britain “future of english” might give people concerned with their question some enlightenments (启发). the book helps to help english teachers, planners, managers and decision makers with a professional interest in the development of english worldwide.with the book translated into chinese and to be published soon, the book might be brought to wider sphere (范围)of people. “from the book, we learn many facts about the english language, and we may be able to predict (预测) its future after reading it.” said dorothy humphrey, who used to be a senior english teacher for the british council.36.the reason why some language rises in the world depends on _ .a. the population of the countryb. the countrys economic strength in the worldc. the number of the population who use itd. the countrys economic strength and development potential37. the book “future of english” helps to _ .a. improve the standard of peoples learning englishb. adds to peoples interest toward englishc. emphasize (强调) the importance in the worldd. make people interested in the development of english worldwide38. after reading “future of english” we know _ .a. english is the language that the people who speak it is the most in the worldb. english may disappear sooner or laterc. the world is keeping changing all the timed. what the future of the english language is39. the main idea of the passage is _ .a. why english has been popular in the worldb. how to improve peoples ability of learning englishc. english has a bright futured. the usage of english may become less in the world one day40. according to this passage, english may not be a world language forever because _a. more and more people will come to visit chinab. people in the world wont like english in the future.c. the economic boots in asia would raise the position of the chinese and hindi languagesd. china and india will be more developed than those english-speaking countries c i have a rule for travel: never carry a map. i prefer to ask for directions. foreign visitors are often puzzled in japan because most streets there dont have names. in japan, people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names. for example, the japanese will say to travelers, “go straight down to the corner. turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. the post office is across from the bus stop.” in the countryside of the american midwest, usually there are not many landmarks. there are no mountains, so the land is very flat（平坦的）. in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. in kansas or iowa, for example, people will say, “go north two miles. turn east, and then go another mile.”people in los angeles, california, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure distance by means of time, not miles. “how far away is the post office?” you ask. “oh,” they answer, “its about five minutes from here.” you say, “yes, but how many miles away is it?” they dont know. people in greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because visitors seldom understand the greek language. instead of giving you the direction, a greek will often say, “follow me.” then hell lead you through the streets of the city to the post office. sometimes a person doesnt know the answer to your question. what happens in this situation? a new yorker might say, “sorry, i have no idea.” but in yucatan, mexico, no one answers, “i dont know.” people in yucatan think that “i dont know” is impolite. they usually give an answer, often a wrong one. a visitor can get very, very lost in yucatan! one thing will help you everywhere in japan, in the united states, in greece, in mexico, or in any other place. you might not understand a persons words, but maybe you can understand his body language. he or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. go in that direction, and you may find the post office!41.the passage mainly tells us that _. a. never carry a map for travel b. there are not many landmarks in the american midwest c. there are different ways to give directions in different parts of the world d. new yorkers often say, “i have no idea,” but people in yucatan, mexico, never say this.42.the passage says, “in japan, people use landmarks in their directions.” the word“landmarks”means _. a. building names b. street names c. there are different ways to give directions in different parts of the world d. buildings or places which are easily recognized43.in which place do people tell distance by means of time? a. japan b. american midwest c. los angeles, california d. greece44. in the passage, _ countries are mentioned by the writer. a. seven b. four c. eight d. five45. which of the following is wrong? a. travelers can learn about peoples customs by asking questions about directions. b. a persons body language can help you understand directions. c. people in some places give directions in miles, but people in other places give directions by means of time. d. people in different places always give directions in the same way: they use street names.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 d how to make friends friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends. good
