14、When you are learning English, you find it not clever to translate an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” for example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language. Languages don’t just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It’s important to master the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the

speakers put words in a wrong order , the listener can’t understand the speaker’s sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change between the two pairs of sentences: “She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.” “I have seen the film already.” “I have already seen the film.” When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the English speaker does. 1．From the passage we know that_________ when we are learning English. A．we shouldn’t put every word into our language B．we should look up every word it the dictionary C．we need to put every word into our own language 2．We can learn from the passage that . A．if the order of words is different, the meaning of the sentence must be different B．the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentence C．sometimes different order of words has a different meaning 3．“She only likes apples.”

A．is the same as “Only she likes apples.” B．is different from “Only she likes apples.” C．means “She likes fruit except apples.”

17、During my stay at an orphanage (孤儿院) at the age of 9, a gentleman came and taught us how to do wooden art pieces.

I remember my first project—a small table. I was so proud of it that I regarded it as a wonder. It was beautiful and it took me six weeks to finish it. I could hardly wait to give it to Mother Winters as a gift. She was always strict with us. As the tables were not dry from the clear coating, the man told us to wait a few days before taking them to our

dormitories(寝室). But I was just so happy that I couldn’t wait to carry my table back, smiling from ear to ear.

When I reached the dormitory, I placed the little table beside my bed. When Mother Winters entered, I was admiring it. “Were you supposed to bring this home?” she asked. “No, ma’am,” I replied with my head down.

She ordered me to throw the table out and so I did. After she left, I immediately opened the door to get it back. It was dirty all over. I brushed it and cried, but the dirt would not come off. I hid the table in my closet. However, a year later during a cleaning-up, it was discovered. Painfully, I had to give the table to Mother Winters, thinking that she would throw it away.

Thirty years later at a party, I learned that Mother Winters was living nearby, so I drove up to see her. We talked cheerfully for long. As I was about to leave, she asked me to come down to her basement(地下室) to get something important. I followed her into a dark corner. She picked something up. As she turned around, I could see that she was holding a little table.

Mother Winters kept the little table that I had given up for lost so long ago.

Today, I look at that table with bittersweet memories but full of thanks to Mother Winters, who kept the table for a young orphan who valued it so much.

1．It was ________ for the writer when she finished the wooden small table. A．exciting B．worrying C．thankful D．painful 2．Why did Mother Winters order the writer to throw the table out? A．Because the table was dirty. B．Because the writer broke the rule. C．Because she didn’t like the table. D．Because she didn’t like the writer.

3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．It took the writer seven weeks to finish the small table. B．The writer cried before she got her small table back. C．The writer hid the table in her closet for many years. D．Mother Winters kept the small table for a long time.

4．The writer is trying to tell us Mother Winters was ________ according to the passage. A．poor and rude B．kind and poor C．kind but strict D．funny but strict

18、Language in crisis

Today, almost 80% of the people in the world speak only 1% of its languages. Every 14 days a language dies. By 2100, half of the more than 7,000 languages spoken on Earth today may disappear.

Why do languages die?

Throughout history, the languages of dominant (统治的) groups have spread while the languages of native cultures have become extinct. This happens because of government language policies, or because the dominant language becomes more useful in everyday life.

Why is language important?

Studying different languages increases our understanding of how humans communicate. Language is also an important part of culture. Words that describe a particular cultural practice might not have meaning in another language.

Native groups often have a deep understanding of local plants and animals because they have lived close to nature for thousands of years. We could discover important things, such as treatments for illness, by studying these languages. Many endangered (濒临灭绝的) languages aren’t written down. When the last speakers of a language die and their language becomes extinct, their stories, songs, and other important information are lost, too.

Which languages are disappearing?

Central South America has some of the world’s most endangered languages. The Kallawaya people speak a secret language that has details of thousands of medicinal plants. Today, fewer than 100 people speak it.

In Central and Eastern Siberia, almost all of the native languages are endangered. Many Siberian languages now have only a few elderly speakers.

Oklahoma has the highest number of native languages in the United States. One of these, Yuchi, may be unrelated to any other language in the world. However, during the early 20th century, government schools punished students who were heard speaking it. In 2010, only five elderly members of the Yuchi tribe could speak their native language.

How are languages being saved?

Native cultures around the world are using modern technology to help keep their endangered languages and cultures alive. Communities are creating dictionaries and libraries by using pictures, video, and audio to record the traditions of the last speakers of their language. If the younger generations don’t speak and understand the words and stories of their ancestors (祖先), the language will die. And when the language dies, part of the culture dies, too. 1．The underlined word “extinct” probably means ______.

A．selling out B．dying out C．speaking out D．putting out 2．How are the native languages in Central Siberia and Oklahoma similar?

A．Both of them are secret languages. B．Fewer people can speak them today. C．They are both unrelated to other languages. D．They are both spoken mainly by young people.

3．To save a language, it is most important for______ to learn it. A．young people B．parents C．scientists D．dominant groups

4．What does the writer want to tell us in the passage? A．It’s necessary to study more languages. B．It’s good for people to speak the same language.

C．Preventing the loss of the world’s languages is important. D．Protecting languages is more important than protecting culture. Ⅴ.书面表达

19、As we all know, a beautiful, peaceful and harmonious school is very important for all of us to grow up healthily. In my opinion, as middle school students, we should first follow the school rules, respect our teachers and get along well with classmates. Secondly, we should often take part in all kinds of voluntary activities so that we can enjoy the sweet feeling of helping others. In recent years, air pollution has become more and more serious. It does a lot of harm to people's daily life. We students should pay attention to protecting the environment . Also, we should organize our time well and achieve a balance between studies and hobbies. Finally, we should learn to be grateful to others, including our parents, teachers, friends and even strangers, and devote ourselves to our society in th
