At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an Englishspeaking country.Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This isa mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so youre more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a persons understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.Finally, having more multilanguage speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each others problems.The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people dont try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.（1）What is the passage mainly about?A . The benefits of learning other languagesB . The reasons why people come to America.C . The importance of learning English.D . How to learn another language.（2）The passage begins with the experience of the Vieira family in order to A . discuss the need for teaching a new languageB . introduce the passages main characters to the readersC . describe the advantages of moving to another countryD . show the problems of speaking only one language（3）The underlined phrase multilanguage speakers (Paragraph 5) means people who know .A . their mother languageB . a new languageC . more than one languageD . body language（4）According to the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?A . Not knowing another languageB . Forgetting ones mother languageC . Refusing to learn another languageD . Failing to communicate with others.18. （10分）I have worked in Shenyang for two months.
