Have you found that you dont know how to make friends? Dont worry. Its easier than it looks.Start with small actions. If youre uncomfortable with long conversations with people, start by just saying “hi” and asking what the person is doing. Even if you do more listening than talking in the beginning, people will usually still like you. When it comes to conversations, remember “F.O.R.”. It stands for family, occupation(职业) and recreation(休闲). You are most likely to be asked about these three topics when you meet someone new. Most people feel comfortable talking about the three topics. The great thing is that you also can communicate with someone new in these three areas.Honesty is the best policy. In friendship, “honesty” is the fundamental quality that one must have. One should always be honest with his or her friends. Dont laugh at peoples fault. Praise them honestly and openly. Say you are sorry if you hurt your friend.Give more than you take. Be there when they need you, encourage them; we all need encouragement now and then. Encourage their dreams.

Today humans express themselves in over 6,000 different languages. But that is quickly changing. Many scientists say that over half of these languages will disappear within the next 50 years. After 100 years, the languages used in the world will not be more than 20.Why? It is because people from different cultures live and work together much more often than before. This brings changes. The languages of the worlds main culture are replacing the languages of the smaller cultures. Most international trade takes place in world languages such as English. People respect their own cultures and traditions, but when it comes to getting a job, knowing a world language is often necessary. It may mean the difference between success and failure.Technology works on the change of languages in an even more amazing way. Modern media such as radio and television give young people in developing countries much knowledge about the world. But this knowledge doesnt come in words from the mouths of their parents or the elders in their neighborhood. It usually comes in the language of a different culture.People in different cultures think it good for them to share a popular language. They can quickly share ideas and work together. Knowing the same language means easier communication and is a basis for trust.Is the death of a small local language such a terrible thing? The answer is maybe. Many cultures may have words for many useful things we know nothing about. If their languages die, their valuable wisdom may be lost forever. The future of the worlds language depends on our actions now. Will we protect endangered languages or allow them to quietly disappear?Time will have the last word.57. Scientists say that within 50 years, perhaps, there will be only_languages in the world.A. 4,000 B. over 3,000 C. no more than 20 D. around 3,000 58. The passage says that if all the people in the world knew a major world language, _.A. radio and television would all use the language B. it would be easier for them to share their ideas C. lessons at schools would be taught in the language D. people would respect their own culture more 59. Also, the passage says that if nobody spoke the languages of smaller cultures, _.A. knowledge would come from the mouths of the eldersB. many of the words for things we do not know would be lost C. people would have difficulty in working together D. there would be no smaller cultures 60. By saying “Time will have the last word,” the writer means “_”.A. let us wait and see B. we have time to do something C. it is too late to do anything D. it is only a problem of time 五、写作（共三节，满分30分）第一节 课文背诵（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake _61_ until half past eleven _62_ have a good look at the moon by myself. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didnt dare open a window. Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs at dusk when the window was open. I didnt go downstairs until the window had to be shut. The dark , rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me _63_ in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that Id seen the night _64_So why has English changed _65_?
