a b c 和 d 四个选项中 选出最佳选项 a there are a growing number of language immersion 沉浸 schools in the united states including one that was founded in columbia called la petite ecole which teaches children french as a second language statistics however show that language instruction in regular schools is actually decreasing and relatively fewamericans know a second language scholars have spent years studying why americans seem to ignore the importance of learning languages while they have developed theories and given potential solutions the future of language learning in the united states remains hazy since 1997 the percentage of elementary and middle schools that offer foreign language courses has fallen significantly from 31 percent to 25 percent at the elementary level and from 75 percent to 58 percent at the middle school level however the decline in elementary schools has appeared primarily in public schools while the percentage of private elementary schools teaching foreign languages has remained roughly the same at 51 percent the percentage of high schools teaching foreign languages has remained at about 91 percent meanwhile the number of language immersion schools designed to teach a second language to english speaking children and young adults has actually increased since 1962 367 two way immersion programs schools that pair native english speakers with those who speak another native language have developed in 28 states the younger the learner is the more likely the acquisition of a second language will be facilitated adel safty wrote in the canadian journal of education linguistic ability shows the greatest development between the ages of 4 and 8 she wrote while the number of people who speak a language other than english at home is still relatively small it has more than doubled over the past 30 years according to a survey released in april people between 18 and 40 make up the largest percentage of people who speak a foreign language the 5 to 17 age group follows closely but among those 41 and older the percentage of people who speak a second language decreases 21 what does the passage mainly deal with a the situation ofamericans learning foreign languages b why americans don t like learning foreign languages c the importance of learning foreign languages d suggestions for learning foreign languages 22 the underlined word hazy in the second paragraph probably means a unimportantb uncertainc impossibled impolite 23 according to adel safty a people should begin to study foreign languages after age 8 b learners who have a friend to help them study a language better c age has a big effect on people s ability to learn a foreign language d people s linguistic ability grows with their age and experience 4 b i still remember my hands and my fingers still remember what used to lie in store for us on our return to school from the holidays the trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves get that all swept up the headmaster would tell us i want the whole place cleaned up at once there was enough work there to last over a week especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands our fingers our nails now see that it s done properly and be quick about it the headmaster would say to the older pupils or you ll have to answer for it so at an order from the older boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops if the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected the big boys instead of giving us a helping hand used to find it simpler to beat us with branches pulled from the trees in order to avoid these blows we used to bribe 贿赂 the older boys with the juicy cakes we used to bring for our midday meal and if we happened to have any money on us the coins changed hands at once if we did not do this if we were afraid of going home with an empty stomach or an empty purse the blows were redoubled they hit us so violently and with such evil enjoyment that even a deaf and dumb person would have realized that we were being whipped not so much to make us work harder but rather to beat us into a state of obedience 服从 in which we would be only too glad to give up our food and money occasionally one of us worn out by such calculated cruelty would have the courage to complain to the headmaster he would of course be very angry but the punishment he gave the older boys was always very small nothing compared to what they had done to us and the fact is that however much we complained our situation did not improve in the slightest perhaps we should have let our parents know what was going on but somehow we never dreamed of doing so i don t know whether it was loyalty or pride that kept us silent but i can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it for such beating were completely foreign to our nature 24 the statement my hands and my fingers still remember para 1 means that a the author s hands were severely injured in the cleaning up b the author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning up c the author was bullied by the big boys in the cleaning up d the author s hands were his only tool for the cleaning 25 the headmaster asked the older boys to a beat those who worked slowlyb treat the small boys as peanuts c take charge of the process of the cleaningd do the cleaning all by themselves 26 according to para 3 if the author had any money on him he most probably a gave it to the big boys so as to please them b gave it as a bride to the headmaster c spent it all on his midday meal d spent it buying midday meals for the big boys 27 when receiving complaints the headmaster would deal with the big boys by means of a slight punishmentb harsh criticismc complete indifferenced good beating 5 c as you move around your home take a good look at the things you have it is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need you almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week now perhaps more than ever before people are wondering what life is all about and what it is for seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world they feel that the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them six percent of workers in britain took the decision to downshift last year one couple who downshifted is daniel and liz they used to work in central london he was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank they would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs leaving their two children with a nanny most evenings daniel wouldn t get home until eight or nine o clock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to new york for meetings they both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by nowadays they run a farm in the mountains of wales i always wanted to have a farm then says daniel and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift it s taken some getting used to but it s been worth it we have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays however i think it s made us stronger as a family and the children are a lot happier liz however is not quite sure i used to enjoy my job even though it was hard work and long hours i m not really a country girl but i suppose i m gradually getting used to looking after the animals one thing i do like though is being able to see more of my children my advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all 28 the passage tells us that a people seldom work long hours to make money b people hardly buy more things than necessary c people are sure everything they own is in the right place d people realize there is more to life than just making money 29 daniel and liz both agree that the move to the farm a was easy to organizeb has improved family life c was extremely expensived has been a total success 30 what does the author mean by saying the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives in the second paragraph a people work long hours to earn their living b to make more money through hard work is the aim of people s life c long hours of hard work occupy too much of people s life d people spent too much time and money eating meals 31 the underlined word downshifting in the second paragraph refers to a repairing your car by yourself b spending money carefully c moving out to the countryside to live a simpler and better life d living in a big house in the suburbs and dining out once a week 6 d children start out as natural scientists eager to look into the world around them helping them enjoy science can be easy there s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment you only have to share your children s curiosity firstly listen to their questions i once visited a classroom of seven year olds to talk about science as a job the children asked me textbook questions about schooling salary and whether i liked my job when i finished answering we sat facing one another in silence finally i said now that we re finished with your lists do you have questions of your own about science after a long pause a boy raised his hand have you ever seen a grasshopper 蚱蜢 eat when i try eating leaves like that i get a stomachache why this began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours secondly give them time to think studies over the past 30 years have shown that after asking a question adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer no time for a child to think when adults increase their wait time to three seconds or more children give more logical complete and creative answers thirdly watch your language once you have a child involved in a science discussion don t jump in with that s right or very good these words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior but in talking about science quick praise can signal that discussion is over instead keep things going by saying that s interesting or i d never thought of it that way before or coming up with more questions or ideas never push a child to think it doesn t make sense children are always thinking without your telling them to what s more this can turn a conversation into a performance the child will try to find the answer you want in as few words as possible so that he will be a smaller target for your disagreement lastly show don t tell real life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass 放大镜 and they ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner rather than saying that water evaporates 蒸发 set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop 32 according to the passage children are natural scientists and to raise their interest the most important thing for adults to do is a to let them see the world aroundb to share the children s curiosity c to explain difficult phrases about scienced to supply the children with lab equipment 33 in the last sentence of the first paragraph the word lists could best be replaced by a any questionsb any problems c questions from textbooksd any number of questions 34 according to the passage children can answer questions in a more logical complete and creative way if adults a ask them to answer quickly b wait for one or two seconds after a question c tell them to answer the next day d wait at least for three seconds after a question 35 the author mentions all of the following techniques for adults to share with their children s curiosity except that adults should a tell their children stories instead of reciting 背诵 facts b offer their children chances to see things for themselves c be patient enough when their children answer questions d encourage their children to ask questions of their own 7 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 as uber looks to expand its food courier
