To get peoples t1 about his skills, he put it at a crossing on a busy street. And below it a board read, “Gentlemen, I have painted t

11、his piece. S2Im new, I might make some mistakes in it. Please put a cross (叉号) wherever you see a mistake.”When he came back in the evening to c3 his picture, he was shocked to see that the whole picture was filled with crosses. And some people e4 wrote something on his picture. Sadly, he ran to his

12、 master and said, “I failed. And if this is what I have learned, Im not w5 teaching. ”The master smiled and suggested, “Ill let you know that youre a great artist. Now go to paint the same picture again and give it to me. ”Then they went to the same street the next morning and put the new picture ex

13、actly at the same place. Now the master took out another b6 which said, “Gentlemen, I painted this piece. There might be some mistakes in it. I have put a box with colors and brushes just below.

14、ack to the place. The young painter was s8 to see that actually there was not a single correction done!Its easy to say but difficult to do.

15、判) y10 by someone elses words and feel bad two homes. 阅读理解A13、Every 14 days, another language dies. There are many reasons for this. Some people think more common languages have more economic(经济的)power. Because of this, young people choose to learn a common language as they think it is more useful.

16、Another reason is that some languages arent written down. Guujaaw is a leader of the Haida Nation, whose people have lived on the Queen Charlotte Islands, Canada, for more than 10, 000 years. Their language is endangered. Traditionally, it wasnt written down, and, as a result, some people are worrie

17、d that it will die one day. Guujaaw replies to this, We talk to each other, listen, visit, and believe in the spoken word. Expressing yourself without writing is natural. However, if Guujaaws language and others like it are going to stay alive, writing may have to become part of their lives.When a l

18、anguage dies, a lot of knowledge dies with it. To begin with, language is a huge part of the culture of the people who speak it. Language allows speakers to say certain things: words that describe a cultural idea may not translate exactly into another language. Furthermore, many endangered languages

19、 have rich spoken cultures, Stories, songs and histories are passed on from older people to younger generations(一代), Elizabeth Lindsey, an expert in languages, emphasizes(强调) this. “When an elder dies, a library is burned,” she says.Also, language death affects our knowledge about nature. Local peop

20、le often have a deep understanding of plants, animals, and the relationship between them. David Harrison, a researcher on endangered languages, reflects, “80% of plant and animal species(物种)have been undiscovered by science. But that doesnt mean theyre unknown to humans.”Many languages are endangere

21、d. However, it s not too late. Children often grow up speaking two languages. No one .becomes richer by giving up one language to learn another,” Harrison said. If children feel both languages are important, they will use both. So, it is necessary that children realize how useful their local languag
