（2023春·全国·高一商丘市第一高级中学校考期中）If you are fond of learning languages, you must start learning Chinese. English is the most widely spoken language in the world and it is a more powerful language in all fields. But it is expected that Chinese, which is one of the six official languages of the United Nations (UN), will be the most important language in the coming years. What are the reasons behind the rapid spread of this language and why should you learn it
My desire to learn languages was the reason why I studied many Latin languages and in the process, I deepened my knowledge of the languages and literature. However, I did not feel self-sufficient (自给自足的) from this knowledge. I gained a lot of information about the Western world. But my thinking was always about Asian civilizations. I always felt I needed to learn Chinese to be a global citizen because “without learning Chinese, we see with one eye”.
My contact with many international organizations and government institutions (机构) made me believe that Chinese is one of the most important languages of our time.After visiting the world’s most celebrated capitals such as Paris and London, I discovered that Chinese language can be seen everywhere in these places. In the subway in Paris, you will hear instructions in French, English and Chinese. In London, for example, the Chinese language was introduced for instruction in schools.
China is an important political (政治的) and economic country because it is making great economic progress that has never been seen before. The world is watching China with great surprise, and this peaceful Chinese rise makes us decide to focus on learning the Chinese language and knowing more about Chinese culture.
To be a global citizen these days, I would advise you to learn Chinese. It will add more beauty to your life and allow you to better understand Chinese civilization.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。随着中国经济的崛起，汉语预计将在世界上成为最重要的语言，你一定要学的语言就是“汉语”。
1．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But it is expected that Chinese, which is one of the six official languages of the United Nations (UN), will be the most important language in the coming years.(但预计作为联合国六种正式语言之一的汉语在未来几年里将成为最重要的语言)”可知，中文可能会是首屈一指的语言。故选D。
2．推理判断题。根据第二段中的“I always felt I needed to learn Chinese to be a global citizen because ‘without learning Chinese, we see with one eye’.(我一直觉得我需要学习汉语才能成为一名全球公民，因为‘不学习汉语，我们就是用一只眼睛看’)”可知，作者认为要成为全球公民就需要学习汉语，不学习汉语就不能全面地看世界。由此可推测出，作者意识到了学习汉语的必要性。故选A。
3．推理判断题。根据第三段首句“My contact with many international organizations and government institutions(机构) made me believe that Chinese is one of the most important languages of our time.(我与许多国际组织和政府机构的接触使我相信汉语是我们这个时代最重要的语言之一)”可知，作者通过和国际组织和政府机构的接触意识到了汉语的重要性。接下来“After visiting the world’s most celebrated capitals such as Paris and London, I discovered that Chinese language can be seen everywhere in these places. In the subway in Paris, you will hear instructions in French, English and Chinese. In London, for example, the Chinese language was introduced for instruction in schools.(在参观了巴黎和伦敦等世界上最著名的首都后，我发现汉语在这些地方随处可见。在巴黎的地铁里，你会听到法语、英语和中文的指示。例如，在伦敦，汉语被引入学校教学)”列举了在巴黎等世界著名的首都里汉语的普遍使用，由此可推测出，作者列举这些例子是为了说明汉语在世界上正发挥着重要作用。故选D。
4．推理判断题。根据第四段“China is an important political(政治的) and economic country because it is making great economic progress that has never been seen before. The world is watching China with great surprise, and this peaceful Chinese rise makes us decide to focus on learning the Chinese language and knowing more about Chinese culture.(中国是一个重要的政治和经济国家，因为它正在取得前所未有的巨大经济进步。全世界都在惊讶地注视着中国，中国的和平崛起让我们决定专注于学习汉语，更多地了解中国文化。)”可知，中国在经济上正取得前所未有的进步，这让全世界瞩目，中国的崛起让我们决定学习汉语、了解中国文化，由此可推测出，中国经济的崛起是西方人开始学习汉语的主要原因。故选A。
