traditions were important in our house, and none was more appreciated than the perfect christmas tree.“dad, can we watch when you trim(修剪) the tree?” my eldest son, dan, nine, and his seven-year-old brother john, asked.“i wont be cutting this year,” my husband bob said. “dan, you and john are old enough to measure things. do it all by yourselves. think you boys can handle it?”dan and john seemed to grow six inches in their chairs at the thought of such an amazing responsibility. “we can handle it,” dan promised. “we wont let you down.”a few days before christmas, dan and john rushed in after school. they gathered the tools theyd need and brought them out to the yard, where the tree waited. i was cooking when i heard the happy sounds as the boys carried the tree into the living room. then i heard the sound that every mother knows is trouble: dead silence. i hurried out to them. the tree was cut too short. john crossed his arms tight across his chest. his eyes filled with angry tears.i felt worried. the tree was central to our holiday. i didnt want the boys to feel ashamed every time they looked at it. i couldnt lower the ceiling, and i couldnt raise the floor either. there was no way to undo the damage done. suddenly, a thought came to my mind, which turned the problem into the solution.“we cant make the tree taller,” i said. “but we can put it on a higher position.”dan nodded his head sideways. “we could put it on the coffee table. it just might work! lets try it!”when bob got home and looked at the big tree on top of the coffee table, dan and john held their breath.“what a good idea!” he declared. “why didnt i ever think of such a thing?”john broke into a grin. dans chest swelled with pride.56. the underlined part “grow six inches” (para. 4) implies the brothers felt

worlds native languages are dying out at an unprecedented(空前的) rate, taking with them irreplaceable(不能替代的) knowledge about the natural world, according to a new study.the study identified five global “hot spots” where languages are vanishing faster than anywhere else - eastern siberia, northern australia, central south america, the us state of oklahoma and the us pacific northwest. “languages are suffering a global extinction crisis that greatly goes beyond the pace of species extinction,” linguistics(语言学的) professor david harrison noted, who said half of the worlds 7,000 languages were expected to disappear before the end of the century. native people had an intimate(详尽的) knowledge of their environment that was lost when their language disappeared, along with other certain things often unfamiliar to us, harrison stressed. “most of what we know about species and ecosystems is not written down anywhere, its only in peoples heads,” he said. “we are seeing in front of our eyes the loss of the human knowledge base.”harrison was one of a team of linguists who carried out the study. the researchers traveled to australia this year to study native languages, some of the most endangered. according to harrison, in australia, they were heartened to see a woman in her 80s who was one of the only three remaining speakers of the yawuru language passing on her knowledge to schoolchildren. he said such inter-generational exchanges were the only way native languages could survive. “the children had elected to take this course, no one forced them,” he said. “when we asked them why they were learning it, they said, this is a dying language, we need to learn it.” also, while there they found a man with knowledge of the amurdag language, which had previously been thought extinct. the researchers said all five of the hot spots identified were areas that had been successfully colonized and where a dominant language such as spanish or english was threatening native tongues.60. what does this text mainly talk about?a. a study on native languages endangered. b. the knowledge of native languages.c. peoples efforts in saving native languages. d. harrison and his study on languages.61. the underlined word “vanishing” in the second paragraph can be best replaced by .a. developingb. changingc. increasingd. disappearing62. according to harrison, language extinction .a. causes the researchers lots of worriesb. speeds up the pace of species extinctionc. brings about a loss of knowledge about the environment d. threatens the existing of spanish and
