It seemed a natural question for a three-year-old who has spent most of his short life speaking English with me and Spanish with his father. Speaking two languages is common in Bolivia(玻利维亚) where over half the population speaks a traditional language as well as Spanish(西班牙语), the language of the countrys government.One friend of mine, 45-year-old Bertha, has never been inside a school. She learned Spanish playing with other kids. Only one of her children, Estefania, can speak in Berthas traditional Aymara language-and she has had less education than the other children and cannot speak Spanish. Estefania, who left primary school after only two years, now lives with her aunt in the countryside.“As for my other daughter, Maria” says Bertha, “she finished secondary school, but she can hardly speak any Aymara. She doesnt want to learn. When my husband and I talk in the Aymara language, I have to explain what we are saying to her in Spanish.”Bolivians from the countryside get treated like foreigners in their own land when they come to town; few people understand their language. They have to try to speak Spanish, which they find very difficult, and so city people think they are stupid and are not very nice to them.My kids, on the other hand, always get praised for speaking English as well as Spanish. Teachers get them to speak English in front of people, classmates ask for help with their homework, people in the street stop to listen to them and tell them how useful it is to be able to speak English as well as Spanish. At the same time, Bolivias old languages, which are still spoken by most people in Bolivia, are considered unimportant, and certainly not as popular as Spanish. People are not proud of their traditional language-Spanish rules.() 51. Which should be the best title for the passage? A. The Schools for ChildrenB. The Different Families C.The Population in BoliviaD. Languages in Bolivian () 52. What can you infer(推断) from the passage? A. The native languages in Bolivia will develop. B. Bolivia will be divided into at least two parts. C. The writer lives in a big city with her family. D. Families in the country will move to big cities.() 53. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. The writers kids can speak not only English but also Spanish. B. All the people in the country look forward to learning Spanish. C. Most people in Bolivia think English is their official language. D. Bolivias old languages are certainly as popular as Spanish now.() 54. What does the writer mean by “Spanish rules”? A. There are a lot of grammar rules in Spanish. B. It is very difficult for learners to learn Spanish. C. It isnt necessary for everyone to learn Spanish and English. D. Spanish is much more popular than the traditional languages. 第II卷 （非选择题 共50分）考生须知1. 第II卷从第1页到第4页，共4页，共五道大题，22道小题。2. 考生必须用黑色或蓝色钢笔、圆珠笔或签字笔在本试卷上作答。一、听短文，记录关键信息。（共8分，每小题2分）请根据所听的短文内容和卡片上的提示词语，将所缺的关键信息填写在下面的卡片中的相应位置上。短文读三遍。Newtown Sport ClubI want to be a member of Newtown Sports Club.

Everyone is getting unwell”.This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, it was written by an unknown person who lived in Rome in 53 AD. We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our life. But have all these developments really improved the quality of our life? Imagine this: Youre rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank, and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to do it again. Do you feel happy? Inventions have speeded our life so much that they often leave us feeling stressed (紧张)and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, where they ha
