These days, it is easier for us to travel to other countries than before. However, there is a big difficulty that most of us 36 when we meet people in other countries—we can not communicate with them. There are 37 where English is still not spoken, though it is the most widely known language. So, wouldn’t it be 38 if there was one language that could be understood by anyone anywhere in the world?
Esperanto that was created in 1887 may be the world’s 39 truly international language. In fact, although 40 artificial(人造的)languages have been already created, only Esperanto has had much success. Its learners say that it is about four times 41 to learn than other languages. Spelling and pronunciation are both easy, too. For example, it does not have silent
42 like the “h” in “honest”. If you 43 a word, you can spell it without any difficulty. The grammar is also as simple as possible: only sixteen basic 44 , no irregular verbs(不规则动词), only six verb endings.
In short, Esperanto should be attractive (有吸引力的) as a language to learn, 45 there is a problem: how many people have met anyone who can really speak it? Anyway, we hope that some day one language can be mastered easily by anyone.
36. A. need B. miss C. face D. touch
37. A. offices B. schools C. cities D. places
38. A. safe B. nice C. funny D. difficult
39. A. first B. another C. last D. other
40. A. little B. a little C. few D. a few
41. A. better B. easier C. slower D. shorter
42. A. marks B. parts C. words D. letters

四、阅读理解（每小题2分，满分20分）
A
Many Americans have been leaving their cars at home and riding to work on bicycles. Andy Clark is the leader of the League of American Bicyclists. His group supports bicycling for fun, fitness and transportation.
Clark says this is good news for the environment. He says riding a bicycle to work does not burn fossil fuel or creates dangerous pollution. Experts say the effects are the most important on short trips. Shorter car trips give out more pollution into the air for each kilometer drive. This is because the car engine will give out the harmful gas when it warms up before it can work well.
James, a member of Congress, is a strong supporter of bicycle use. He says cities, counties, state governments and state highway transportation agencies are planning the roadways of the future. They are creating roads and paths for bicycles in cities and between communities.
Last year, Portland, the Pacific Northwest city in the state of Oregon, had the highest percentage of bicycle users in the United States. Portland has been doing progressive city planning for many years to create special paths for bike riders.

Good afternoon,everyone!
We are studying in this school. It’s our duty to keep it clean and tidy, so we have made some school rules. We cannot spit in public places, such as in the library and in the classroom. We are not allowed to draw pictures on the walls and throw any litter onto the ground. We should clean the classroom every day. If everyone tries to do something useful for our school, I’m sure our school will be more and more beautiful.
