parents, while you were a young child? your teachers at school? perhaps even the bbc as a grown-up. whoever it was, somehow you have developed an understanding of what is rapidly becoming a truly global language. there are now about 376 million people who speak english as their first language, and about the same number who have learnt it in addition to their mother tongue. there are said to be one billion people learning english now and about 80% of the information on the internet is in english. is this a good thing, or a bad thing? should we celebrate the fact that more and more of us can communicate, using a common language, across countries and cultures? or should we worry about the dangers of “mono- culturalism”, a world in which we all speak the same language, eat the same food and listen to the same music? does it matter if an increasing number of people speak the same language? on the contrary, i would have thought-although i have never accepted the argument that if only we all understood each other better, there would be fewer wars. ask the people of india (where many of them speak at least some english) and pakistan (the same situation with india). . . if we all speak english, will we then all start eating mcdonalds burgers? surely not. if english becomes more dominant(占主导地位的), will it kill other languages? i doubt it. when i travel in africa or asia, i am always surprised by how many people can speak not only their own language, but often one or more other related languages, as well as english and perhaps some french or german as well. when we discussed this on talking point a couple of years ago, we received a wonderfully poetic email from a listener in ireland. “the english language is a beautiful language. maybe its like a rose, ”he said. “but who would ever want their garden just full of rose? ” well, i love roses, and i think they make a beautiful addition to any garden. but the way i see it, just by planting a few roses, you dont necessarily need to pull out everything else. if more and more people want to plant english roses, thats fine by me. 53. how many people learn english as their second language? a. about 80%. b. about 376 million. c. about one million. d. we dont know. 54. what does “garden” in the last two paragraphs stand for? a. language. b. family. c. the world. d. the earth. 55. the author would probably agree that_. a. its very hard to plant many kinds of flowers in a gardenb. its good for people from other countries to learn englishc. more and more people like to plant roses in their gardensd. english is easier to learn than other languages56. this passage is mainly about_. a. why english has become a global languageb. how many people in the world speak englishc. how people in the world learn english as a foreign languaged. whether we need to worry about english being a world languagec a new study of 8,000 young people in the journal of health and social behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily，it is a bad thing for young peoplepuppy love（早恋）may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression（忧郁症）the study shows that girls become more depressed than boys，and younger girls are the worst of all the possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”. according to the study，even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”，this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. they wont tell that to their parents dr marianm kaufman，an expert on young people problems，says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. trying romance often causes the depression. she advises kids not to jump into romance too early. during growing up，it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of selfshe also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends，attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family parents should watch for signs of depressioneating or mood changesand if they see signs from their daughters or sons，they need to give helpthe good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with agelove will always make us feel young，but only maturity（成熟）gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects57. whats the main idea of the passage?apuppy love may bring young people depressionbparents should forbid their childrens lovecromance is a twoedged sword(剑) for adultsdromance is good for young people58. which of the following is more likely to have depression?ayoung people who have a strong sense of selfishnessbyoung boys whose parents watch for their behaviorcyoung girls who always hide their feelings and opinionsdcareless parents whose children are deep in love59. what can be inferred from the passage?alacking love can lead young people to grow up more quicklybearly love makes young people keep close to their friends and parentscparents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depressiondthe older a woman is，the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance60. whats the authors attitude towards puppy love?aconfused bdisapproving cdisinterested dscaredd tired of all the pushing in supermarkets? fed up with waiting in endless lines to pay for what you have bought? angry at wasting time in traffic jams only to find no parking spaces when you eventually arrive at the store? if this is you, then online shopping is the answer to your dreams of trouble-free shopping. or is it?online shopping brings its own challenges. here are a few things to bear in mind when browsing (浏览) various websites. the claim made by online sites is that shopping online is a safe and secure way to make purchases. the evidence challenges this. in any case, you only have to be the victim of fraud (诈骗) once to experience all the problems that come with this form of stealing. use only sites that have a trusted history and an excellent reputation.another problem is the appearance of items in reality is often quite different from what you see on your computer screen. this might not be a problem if you are buying washing up powder but could be a major disappointment when that beautiful blue dress you ordered turns up in green. also, product descriptions are sometimes simply untrue. perhaps the wisest plan is to purchase items where design and color are not essential to customer satisfaction.some even argue that online shopping indirectly contributes to global warming. yes, your car can stay parked but how are online goods delivered? often by some large vans pouring out carbon monoxide and adding to our already desperate traffic problems. you are also by now becoming increasingly irritated (使烦恼) by the fact that the delivery is late and you have wasted the leave from work you have taken to receive it!without question, online shopping is here to stay and it has its benefits. however, perhaps it is not as wonderful as some of its supporters claim it to be.61. the
