7，the rat will start the 12year animal cycle.yes，it is the year of the rat.in your english vocabulary，the words rat and mouse may mean the same and be interchangeable.but in fact，it is not the case.mice and rats can be summed_up nicely with two english phrases：“as quiet as a mouse，”and “a dirty rat.”rats are considered dirty because they are often found in sewers(下水道)and other unclean places.they are also responsible for carrying the black plague(瘟疫)disease that wiped out much of europes population in the 15th century.having a rat in your house is bad news.they smell terrible and usually make a lot of noise.calling someone a “rat” in english means they are not to be trusted and are suspicious.saying “rats！” is also a way to show ones annoyance.charlie brown in the snoopy comic strips often says this.rats appear as mean and evil in some books and novels.however，a recent movie，ratatouille，in which a rat plays a creative chef，has helped give rats a better image.mice，on the other hand，are seen as quiet and cute.they are smaller than rats and often kept as pets.walt disneys famous character mickey mouse helped give them a lovable image among children.jerry，from the tom and jerry，cartoons，represents mice as playful creatures that like to play tricks on their friends.56the underlined word in paragraph 2 probably means “_”aadded bdescribedccorrected drepresented57when “rat” is used in oral english，it can refer to _.asomeone who is troublesomebsomeone playing tricks on friendscsomeone who is not reliabledsomeone who is lovable58the main idea of the passage is that _.ait is the year of the rat this yearbthe words rat and mouse may mean the same and are interchangeablechow to tell if its a rat or a mousedsome books and novels have helped give rats a better imageblanguage is a major problem for the european union(eu)the agreement or treaty(条约)which created the organization that eventually became the eu，the treaty of rome，stated that each countrys language must be treated equally.the original six countries had only three languages between them：french，german and dutch/flemish.however，there are now 15 countries in the eu，with a total of 12 languages.eu documents must be translated into all these languages，and at official meetings，the speeches must be translated into all the languages by interpreters.all this translating is very expensive and timeconsuming(费时的)it is said that nearly half of all employees of the eu are engaged in translating documents and speeches，and nearly half of the eus administrative(管理方面的)costs are spent on this task.in the near future it is probable that several more countries，most of them having their own languages，will join the eu，thus making the situation even worse.the problem is not just cost：there are practical difficulties as well.with 12 languages，there are 132 possible “translation situations” that might be needed.it is often difficult to find people in the right place at the right time who can translate from(for example)danish into greek，or dutch into portuguese，at a high professional standard.in practice，the problem has been made less severe by the use of english in many contacts between eu officials，since almost all of them speak some english.however，any action to reduce the number of official languages(perhaps to four or five)would be a blow to the price of the smaller countries.another commonly suggested solution is to make english the official language for all eu business.however，this is strongly resisted by powerful member countries like france and germany.59whats the main purpose of this passage?ato give a solution to a problem.bto find out a problem and show how severe it is.cto criticize the european union for inefficiency(低效)dto show that the problem cannot be solved.60the writer mentions “danish into greek” as an example of _.aa situation that might be difficult to deal withba situation that occurs oftencone of the 12 situations that requires an interpreterdlanguages easily being interpreted61the writer suggests that if the number of official languages was reduced，_.athe eu would not know which official languages to choosebcountries whose languages were not used officially would be unhappyconly easy languages would be used officiallydthe smaller member countries would be pleasedcreading poems is not exactly an everyday activity for most people.in fact，many people never read a poem once they get out of high school.it is worth reminding ourselves that this has not always been the case in america.in the nineteenth century，a usual american activity was to sit around the fireside in the evening and read poems aloud.it is true that there was no television at the time，nor movie theaters，nor world wide web，to provide diversion.however，poems were a source of pleasure，of selfeducation，of connection to other people or to the world beyond ones own community.reading them was a social act as well as an individual one，and perhaps even more social than individual.writing poems to share with friends and relations was，like reading poems by the fireside，another way in which poetry has a place in everyday life.how did things change？why are most americans no longer comfortable with poetry，and why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and that they can do well without poems?there are，i believe，three factors：poets，teachers，and we ourselves.of these，the least important is the third：the world surrounding the poem has betrayed us more than we have betrayed the poem.early in the twentieth century，poetry in english headed into directions unfavorable to the reading of poetry.readers decided that poems were not for the fireside or the easy chair at night，and that they belonged where other difficulttoread things belonged.poets fa
