They are discussing something, and their conversation looks fun and interesting. But I don't speak their language. Out of interest, I interrupt them.With friendly smiles, they both change easily to English, explaining that they are South Africans and were speaking Xhosa. In Johannesburg, where they are from, most people speak at least five languages, says one of them, Theo Morris. "My mother5s language is Sotho. My father's is Zulu. I learned Xhosa and Ndebele from my friends and neighbors, and English and Afrikaans from school. I can speak well all of the languages mentioned above. I went to Germany before I came here, so I also speak a little German J he adds.“Is it easy to learn so many languages?” “Yes, ifs normal J he laughs. He's right. Around the world, more than half of the people speak at least two languages. Many countries have more than one official language - South Africa has 11. People, young or old, are increasingly expected to speak, read and write in at least one of a handful of "super languages, such as English, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish and Arabic.MultilingualismC 多语言）has many social psychological and lifestyle advantages. Moreover, many health benefits from speaking more than one language have been found, including faster stroke （中风） recovery.Could it be that the human brain evolves （进化）to be multilingual - that those who speak only one language are not realizing their full potential? And in a world that is losing languages faster than ever 一 one every two weeks, half our languages will disappear hopelessly by the end of the century. What would happen if the rich diversity of languages disappeared and most of us ended up speaking only one? Thafs a serious problem we are facing.4. Why does the author interrupt the two workers?A.

Doubtful.CBack in the early 2000s, lots of people couldn't have imagined life without alarm clocks, CD players, calendars, cameras, or lots of other devices. But along came the iPhone and other smartphones, and they took over the functions of dozens of things we used to think were essential.The smartphone story could even be a model for fighting climate change; not because smartphones use a small part of the energy of all the things they replace - although they do - but because they represent a different approach to design in general. And that approach is to focus on function rather than form. That requires focusing on understanding the underlying problem, and then engineering a wide range of potential solutions. This approach could revolutionize how we think about energy efficiency.Traditionally, improvements in energy efficiency have mostly focused on individual devices, which can be quite fruitful. But focusing on individual devices is like if Apple had spent effort inventing a better alarm clock, a better CD player, a better calendar, and a better camera. Now with an iPhone, we don't need the standalone devices at all, because it can function as all of them.So when it comes to using energy efficiently, rather than just installing a more efficient heater, some people have focused instead on the desired function: staying warm. They designed and coated their house so well that they could get rid of their heater altogether, letting them heat their house with 99% less energy.In the same way, rather than just making cars more efficient, what if we focus on the desired function getting where we want when we want and create an efficient transportation system where we can drive less or get rid of our personal cars entirely?The most energy efficient car or heater is no car, or no heater, while still being able to get around and stay warm. In other words, it's not thinking efficient, it's thinking different.8. What makes the iPhone a good example of environmental protection?A. Perfecting individual devices.B. Combining possible functions.C. Adopting a minimalist design.D. Reducing the energy consumption.9. According to the passage, what is the core of improving energy efficiency?A. Using recyclable materials.B. Revolutionizing technologies.C. Figuring out various solutions.D. Concentrating on the essential needs.10. What does the author think of traditional practices in energy improvements?A. Out-of-date.B. Ineffective.C. Adequate.D. Successful.11. What can we learn from the passage?A. Be economical with energy.B. Differences make it unique.C. Think out of the box.D. Step out of the comfort zone.DWhen I was in primary school, my favorite place was the library, I was the kid who got shouted at for trying to bring home sixty books at a time because I just couldn't decide which world I wanted to experience that week. I remember spending my weekends glued to a book, hungering for experiencing lives other than my own. Up until middle school, reading was a passion （酷爱）of mine.Something changed after I entered senior high school though. All of a sudden, reading was a task that I could not avoid fast enough. The books that I read in school bored me, or even if I enjoyed the books themselves, the difficult homework we completed based on those books made me hate reading as a whole.It actually wasn't until recently that I rediscovered my love for reading. How you may ask? Audiobooks （有声书）.Last summer, I spent every morning taking long walks while listening to them, and I would find myself lost in the stories for hours. And now Fm rediscovering my passion fbr reading. I feel that pull again. That desire.My love story with reading may have had a happy ending, but not everyone is as lucky as me. What went wrong?What will happen is that students lose their love for reading because of the way many schools try to encourage children to read. For example, when a child is told to read for twenty minutes every night, they will read for the required amount of time and then check the task off on their list. In this way, reading has suddenly become a boring task instead of an exciting experience.Making sure that kids keep their passion for reading will require us to rethink how we teach reading in schools and how we introduce books to children outside of school as well. There needs to be less of a focus on meeting reading requirements and more of a focus on creating an environment in which students are actually excited to read.12. Which word best describes the author's love for books before high school?A. Confusing.B. Crazy.C. Secret.D. Short-lived.13. Why did the author once hate reading?B. She found high school books difficult.A. She couldn't choose what to read.C. She was given too many books to read.D. Reading as a task turned her off.14. What does the underlined word “pull” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Attraction.B. Duty.C. Annoyance.D. Influence.15. What advice does the author give in the last paragraph?A. Give kids extra-curricular reading tasks.B. Encourage parents to introduce books to kids.C. Improve schools' ways of teaching reading.D. Develop kids' interest in advanced literature.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。For you who dream of studying abroad, you're probably thinking it'll be an easy transition. From my personal experience, I can tell you that it is much fun, but certainly not easy. In fact, there are many challenges of studying abroad.16You may feel like an outsider.
