The late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela, once said: “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”
Mandela understood that our mother language is a very close thing to us. For people who speak their mother language, it helps them keep their traditions. Their language is the bridge with their ancestors (祖先). And it is also how they think about the future.
So it's a serious thing that a language disappears (消失). Over the last century, more than 400 languages have died out. Some languages are now spoken only by a few people, like Yagan in Chile. Africa and South America are also places where many languages are imperiled (处于危险的).
Why are humans speaking fewer languages than we once did The answer has something to do with globalization (全球化). Nowadays, it's more useful to speak certain languages—English is one example. This has killed some languages, usually ones spoken by fewer people.
The United Nations has set Feb 21 as International Mother Language Day. This work is very important. As US writer Rita Mae Brown wrote, “Language is the map of the culture. It tells where its people come from and where they are going”.
1. How does the writer introduce (介绍，引入) the topic
A. By using a famous person’s words. B. By asking difficult questions.
C. By giving good examples. D. By explaining special things.
2. According to Nelson Mandela, a man’s mother language _____________.
A. doesn’t go to his head B. can’t explain things better
C. carries certain feelings D. helps talk to their ancestors
3. Which is the most suitable (适合的) place in the passage for the sentence, “But some people aren’t prepared to accept the earth with fewer and fewer languages”
A. At the beginning of Paragraph 2 B. At the beginning of Paragraph 3
C. At the beginning of Paragraph 4 D. At the beginning of Paragraph 5
4. What can we infer (推断) from the passage
A. The US writer Rita Mae Brown does not agree with Nelson Mandela.
B. The United Nations wants people to care more about dying languages.
C. People in Chile do not speak their mother languages any more.
D. There will be more and more languages in the world soon.
C
A new report shows what life might be like in 100 years . It describes skyscrapers(摩天大楼) that are much taller than today's buildings, underwater "bubble" cities and holidays in space. The report is from a company. It asked experts（专家）on space and architecture(建筑学), as well as city planners, to give their ideas on the life in 2117. They said the way we live, work and play will be completely different from how we do these things today. The experts used the Internet as an example. They said that 25years ago, people could not imagine how the Internet and smartphones would change our lives. The Internet has completely changed the way we communicate(交流), learn and do daily things. The experts said the changes in the next century would be even more unbelievable.
Researchers questioned 2,000 adults about the predictions（预言）they thought were most likely（很可能的）to happen in the future. They predicted that in the future, few people will go to an office but will work at home and have work meetings online. People will have highly developed(发展的) 3-D printers(打印机） that will let you download（下载）a design for furniture or a food recipe(食谱) and then "print" the sofa, table or pizza at home. There will also be less need for visits to the doctor. We will all have a home health tool that will tell us what the problem is and give us treatment. We will also be going into space for holidays and to get resources(资源) that we have run out of on Earth. A prediction that is missing is whether people will still need to study English.

五、任务型阅读
Beijing and neighboring Hebei province’s Zhangjiakou will co-host the 2022 Winter Olympic Games on Feb. 04-20, 2022. Although snowboarding(滑板滑雪) became a Winter Olympic event in 1998, many people still don’t think it’s a “real” sport. I asked ten of my friends about this and eight of them said it shouldn’t be an Olympic event. Snowboarders must be skillful and strong, just like other players, and they train just as hard. So, why do people have this opinion
Well, I think there are a few reasons. First of all, snowboarders believe that having fun is part of the sport. Maybe people think they are having a good time too much. I guess they feel that “real” sports should look like hard work.
Secondly, snowboarders believe it’s of importance to show their personal style. They like to be dressed in modern clothes and often have interesting haircuts with bright colour(s). In some people’s eyes, a well-trained player shouldn’t wear a funny hat or a nose-ring.
Thirdly, it isn’t an old sport and many people haven’t tried it yet. This might make them think it’s easy. In fact, snowboarding isn’t as easy as skiing.
Whatever the reasons, I think it’s time for us to accept that having fun doesn’t mean you’re lazy and that someone with red hair can be a champion(冠军).
Title Snowboarding
The opinions of many people ● 1 of my friends don’t think well of snowboarding. ● Snowboarding shouldn’t be an Olympic event.
Their reasons ● Snowboarders enjoy 2 too much in the sport. ● Snowboarders dress in 3 clothes, have interesting hairstyle and wear funny hats. ● Snowboarding is too easy.
The writer’s opinions ● Snowboarders train hard and must be 4 and strong. ● 5 fun is part of the sport. ● Showing their personal style is 6 . ● Skiing is 7 than snowboarding.
Conclusion ● Having fun doesn’t mean being 8 . ● Someone with red hair can be the 9 player. ● Snowboarding is a 10 Winter Olympic Sport.
