At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were then living in an English-speaking country.Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother languages behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so youre more independent. People who know only one language must ask others to help them communicate.Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a persons understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each others problems.The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people dont try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.根据短文内容，选择正确答案。16What is the passage mainly about?_AThe benefits of learning other languages.BThe reasons why people come to America.CThe importance of learning English.DHow to learn another language.17The passage begins with the experience of the Vieira family in order to _.Adiscuss the need for teaching a new languageBintroduce the passages main characters to the readersCdescribe the advantages of moving to another countryDshow the problems of speaking only one language18The underlined phrase “multi-language speakers” means “people who know _.”Atheir mother languageBa new languageCmore than one languageDbody language19According to the passage, if you can speak more than one language, you can _.Afind a better jobBmake more friendsCbetter understand historyDcommunicate more independently20Based on the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?_ANot knowing another language.BForgetting ones mother language.CRefusing to learn another language.DFailing to communicate with others.BDo you know what Oscar is?
