11、r many purposes. Some minority lanuages will die out and some nations tend to keep minority languages. I reckon that most common used international languages ease our life quality and communication with different nationalities. On the other hand, we need to help improve minority languages.There are

12、many languages in the entire world but two or three minority languages die out each year. Some countries try to save dying languages. For instance, Australian Government created a project to save the language and culture of Maori who are Australian aborigines. And there are other projects to keep mi

13、nority languages such as American Indian language.However, the worldwide job market usually requires candidates who can speak English or other international languages. People who cannot speak lingua franca (共通语) could hardly be promoted at work. For example, some companies need an employee who can d

14、eal with foreign companies. So most people tend to learn at least one international language that helps them to find a better job.Therefore, world needs one common lingua franca that should be spoken in any country. Consequently, one common language should be a required subject in every school. So a

15、nyone speaking one common language can travel without worries to any point of the world and trade their products. People will not be forced to learn many languages.In conclusion, we should help minority nations to keep their languages for the cultural diversity. To ease the worldwide communication a

16、mong nations, we should create a common language and provide courses of it. As a result, no one will face a language issue.1、What does the underlined word “reckon” in Paragraph 1 mean?ADeny. BFear.CIgnore. DThink.2、What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?ANot all minority languages are useful.BSome mi

19、ia in 1967, what he wanted most was not a job with a good salary, but a chance to be a member of Congress as a southern representative. After earning his degree at Harvard Law School in 1970, he returned to the South to practice law among the poor. “I want to help them understand what their rights a

20、re and to help them achieve them,” he said. Then he ran for political office at the local and state level until he was ready to try for Congress.Reg grew up in a low-income Negro section of Birmingham, Alabama. Brought up by his grandparents after his parents were divorced while he was very young, R

21、eg had been living through a period of far-reaching progress in race relations. In the summer of 1968 Reg himself became a good example of this progress when he became the first Negro student appointed to a special new program. The program introduced bright young students to the workings of the Geor

22、gia State government and encouraged them to seek employment there after finishing their education. “Ive been lucky,” he said. “I seem to have been in the right place at the right time.”But luck was only part of Regs story, for he made the most of opportunities that came his way. He learned to read i

23、n kindergarten and began visiting the public library regularly to borrow books. His grandparents encouraged him, though neither of them had much education, and they bought him a set of encyclopedias. “I loved those books,” he remembered. “I used to come downstairs before breakfast and read short art

24、icles. I enjoyed reading about famous men, and then I would pretend to be one of them. I guess it was partly a childish game and partly an escape. It wasnt too much fun to be a Negro when I was a kid.” While studying for his bachelors degree at Morehouse College, Reg worked on several political camp

25、aigns helping candidates get elected to government offices. At the same time he maintained a “B” average while majoring in political science.With just two more years to complete at Harvard Law School, which also gave him a scholarship, Reg made a good start on his professional career. He said, “The

26、good life for me is the kind of life where I can find satisfaction in public service.” Then in 1975 he was the Massachusetts state commissioner of public utilities and from 1993 to 2009 he was judge of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts.1、After earning his degree from

27、 Harvard Law School, Reginald planned to .Areturn to his hometown to find a job with a good salaryBgo back to the South to help the poor understand their rightsCrun for local office to make progress on the civil rights movementDtry for Congress by encouraging the poor to join an education program2、I

29、itious and hardworking.DCourageous and generous.23（8分）Many people have bought insurance, either life or property (财产), commercial or compulsory. Yet some people know little about it and some even misunderstand its nature and function.Insurance is the sharing of risks. Nearly everyone is exposed to a

30、 risk of some sort. The house owner, for example, knows that his property can be damaged by fire; the ship-owner knows that his ships may be lost at sea; the breadwinner knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family poorer. On the other hand, not every house is damaged by fire nor every

31、 ship is lost at sea. If these persons each put a small amount of money into a pool, there will be enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer losses. In other words, the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the many. This is the basis of insurance. Those who pay the contributio

32、n are known as the insured and those who manage the pool of contributions as insurers.The legal basis of all insurance is the policy. This is a printed form of contract on a piece of paper in best quality. It states that every year the insured shall pay an amount of money, which is called the premiu

33、m; in return, the insurer will pay an amount of money or compensation for losses if the risk or event insured against actually happens.The premium for insurance naturally depends upon how likely the risk is to happen, as suggested by past experience. If companies fix their premiums too high, there w

34、ill be more competition in their area of insurance and they may lose business. On the other hand, if they make the premium too low, they will lose money and may even have to drop out of business. So the ordinary forces of supply and demand keep premiums at a level, satisfactory to both the insurer a

35、nd the insured.1、The underlined phrase in Para. 2 most probably means .Amoney paid by the insurers Beach premiumCmoney paid by all those insured Dthe cost of administering insurance2、Insurance premiums do not become too high because .Anot many people insure themselvesBpremiums depend on the risk of

36、lossesCinsurers have to be more competitiveDinsurance companies can never lose money3、According to the passage, insurance business gains profit because .Amore and more people buy insurance Bthe firms have sound managementCthe premium is increased year by year Donly a few of those insured suffer loss

37、es4、The purpose of the passage is to .Aexplain an insurance policy Bintroduce insurance businessCpersuade people to be insured Dwarn people of possible losses24（8分） There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one become

38、s happy, the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things. The pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes,

39、 the goodness of the wine, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend（hurt）many people, and make themselves di

40、sagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong , but it may be cured wh

41、en those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Thos

42、e people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor w

43、ill anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. They should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about

44、 themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.1、The underlined phrase “sour the pleasure of society” in Para.2 most nearly me

45、ans_.Ahave a good taste with social lifeBmake others unhappyCtend to scold others openlyDenjoy the pleasure of life2、We can conclude from the passage that_.Awe should pity all such unhappy peopleBsuch unhappy people are dangerous to social lifeCunhappy people can not understand happy personsDpeople

46、can get rid of the habit of unhappiness3、If such unhappy persons insist on keeping the habit , the author suggests that people should _.Aprevent any communication with themBshow no respect and politeness to themCpersuade them to recognize the bad effectsDquarrel with them until they realize the mist

47、akes4、In this passage, the writer mainly_.Adescribes two types of peopleBlaughs at the unhappy peopleCsuggests ways to help unhappy peopleDtells people how to be happy in life25（10分） When he was young, Louis Armstrong was taking what was called “Creole jazz”, which was also called dance music, and c
