【題目】 There are about 6,000 languages that people are speaking around the world. But 43 percent of these languages are dying out, according to UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization，聯(lián)合國(guó)教科文組織).

This has many reasons. One is that some communities of native(本土的) speakers of the languages are gone, Huff Post reported. These people sometimes leave their communities and move to cities or towns. What's more, to get better education and jobs, young people have to focus their attention on learning dominant (占主導(dǎo)地位的) languages rather than their own languages. Dominant languages are like English, French and Chinese.

Once a language dies, it is hard for it to come back to life. Governments across the world are taking actions to prevent this. In New Zealand, the government has said it wants more than 20 percent of the country’s population to be able to speak Maori (毛利語) by 2040. The country plans to provide Maori lessons in all New Zealand schools by 2025, The New York Times reported.

China is also trying to protect its languages. About 130 languages are spoken in China. In 2015, the government started a project to record all the languages spoken in China, Xinhua reported. Universities like Minzu University of China have created more language majors for their students.

【1】About ________languages are disappearing around the world.

A.6,000B.43C.2015D.2580

【2】________is not a dominant language.

A.EnglishB.MaoriC.FrenchD.Chinese

【3】The underlined word "majors" probably means________ in Chinese in this passage.

A.專業(yè)B.工作C.技巧D.職位

【4】From this passage, we can know that________.

A.governments pay no attention to protect their own languages

B.about 6,000 languages are widely used in China

C.New Zealand is going to offer Maori lessons in all its schools

D.even if a language disappears, it will certainly come back

【5】The best title of the passage is________.

A.Language Loss(遺失)B.The Reasons for Language Loss

【題目】 Once Louis the Twelfth, the King of France, happened to walk into the kitchen of his palace. There he found a small boy busy at work and singing happily.

The boy had bright eyes, and a happy, sunny face, and his looks and manners pleased the king. With a smile Louis asked him his name. He replied that his name was Simon. In answer to further questions, the king learnt that the boy was an orphan: both his father and mother were dead.

“Are you content to do this kind of work?” the king asked, pointing at the bowls which the boy was washing. “Are you willing to spend your time in the kitchen when so many of the others work upstairs?"

“Why not?” answered the boy, with a twinkle in his eyes. “I am doing as well as the best of them. The king himself can do no better.”

“Indeed!” said the king, no little surprised at the boy's words. “How do you know that?”

“Well, sir, the king lives, and so do I. I am content with my life. Can the king say that he is content with his life?”

Louis walked away, and his mind was full of strange, sad thoughts. No one knew better than he did that kings seldom feel content.

The next day, much to Simon's surprise, he was called by the king. He was still more surprised when he found that his visitor of the day before was Louis himself. The king talked with him about many things, and found him to be a very quick and clever boy.

After that Simon was made to serve the king directly. Step by step, he rose from one important task to another, until he became one of the best soldiers of that time. He is known in history as General La Roche, and considered as one of the greatest men in France.

If Simon had not, early in life, learnt to be content with his life, he might never have been given those chances. The king did not want people who were always unhappy because they did not have as good a place as some others. You cannot too soon learn that only those who are content are happy.

【1】What did Simon do before he met the king?

A.He sang in the king’s palace.B.He served in the king’s army.

C.He worked in the king’s kitchen.D.He guarded the king’s palace.

【2】What does the underlined word “content” mean here in Chinese?

A.滿足的B.幸運(yùn)的C.欠缺的D.無聊的

【3】Which of the following is the correct order about Simon?

①He served the king directly.

②He found the visitor was the king.

③He became one of the best soldiers.

④He had a chat with a visitor in the kitchen.

⑤He is a well-known man in French history.

A.①②⑤③④B.④②⑤①③C.③④②①⑤D.④②①③⑤

【4】We can learn from the story that ________.

A.being content makes us happyB.working hard can lead to success

C.it’s important to be kind to othersD.children are always more honest
