【题目】 It’s reported that half of around 7,000 languages on the earth are in danger of disappearing by 2100.There are many reasons for such disappearance. Sometimes younger generations stop learning a language because parents want children to fit in modern society. 1 For instance, native American children of the late-19th century were required to attend boarding schools where educators forbade them from speaking their native languages.

Endangered languages are ranked according to their risk level by the United Nations. A "critically endangered" language is one that even grandparents don't speak often. New York's Onondaga language is an example with only 50 speakers left. An "extinct" language has no speakers, which means it is gone forever. 2 The last person who spoke it died in 2008. So this language doesn’t exist any longer.

Various animals and plants benefit our environment. 3 Saving these languages benefits our understanding of other cultures. Languages can show how a society looks at the world and what it values. The Endangered Language Alliance, a non-profit group, wants to save languages from disappearing. 4 However, its efforts are limited. If an endangered language is going to make a real comeback, it'll probably get its start in schools. Now students in Hawaii can keep learning Hawaiian from elementary schools to college and beyond.

5 At least one did. In 1881, a Jewish linguist named Eliezer Ben-Yehuda brought the 3,000-year-old language Hebrew back to life. Today it is one of the official languages of the country of Israel, with more than 4 million speakers.

A. Alaska's Eyak language is one example.

B. Why should we save endangered languages?

C. With just five speakers left, it is absolutely endangered.

D. Can a language with zero native speakers come back to life?

E. Similarly, different languages contribute to cultural diversity.

F. Sometimes societies force minorities to give up their language.

G. The organization finds native speakers and records their stories.

【题目】Every object tells a story. Even the most ordinary objects can present to us powerful images. Sometimes it is the ordinary nature of these objects that actually makes them so extraordinary. Such is the case with an old leather shoe in a museum in Alaska. At first glance it does not look like much. It is a woman’s shoe of a style popular in the 1890s. But what is unique (独特的) about this shoe is where it was found. It was discovered on the Checkout Pass, the famous trail used by the people seeking gold in Alaska. Who it belonged to or why it was left there is not known. Was it perhaps dropped by accident as the woman climbed up the 1500 stairs carved outface? Or did she throw away goods that she didn’t need in order to travel lighter?

Over 100, 000 people with “gold fever” made this trip hoping to become millionaires. Few of them understood that on their way they would have to cross a harsh wildness. Unprepared for such a dangerous journey, many died of starvation and exposure to the cold weather.

The Canadian government finally started requiring the gold seekers to bring one ton of supplies with them. This was thought to be enough for a person to survive for one year. They would carry their supplies in backpacks (背包) each weighing up to fifty pounds; it usually took at least 40 trips to get everything to the top and over the pass. Whoever dropped the shoe must have been a brave and determined woman. Perhaps she was successful and made it to Alaska. Perhaps she had to turn back in defeat. No one will ever know for sure, but what we do know is that she took part in one of the greatest adventures in the 19th century.

1Which of the following is right?

A. it was an important clue to life in the past B. it was found on a famous trail

C. it at one time belonged to a VIP D. it was a fashionable shoe at that time

2According to this passage, many people who went to Alaska ________.

A. eventually became millionaires B. brought with them many shoes

C. had conflicts with the Eskimos D. were not properly equipped

3The Canadian government made gold seekers bring one year’s supplies with them so that ________.

A. they would not die of hunger and cold

B. the army would have enough food for fighting a war

C. they would change these goods with the Eskimos

D. the supplies would make Alaska rich

4No matter what happened to the woman who owned the shoe, ________.

A. she must have lived a happy life

B. she certainly dropped the shoe on purpose

C. her adventurous spirit is definitely admired

D. her other shoes were equally fashionable

【题目】Four simple ways to stay positive

Trying to stay positive, both in good times and bad, is a great way to improve your quality of life. Try these four methods on a daily basis.

1. Don’t think a lot about negativity.

Of course, staying positive 24 hours a day, seven days a week is a bit difficult. Letting things get to you is normal, and it’s actually healthy to cry or express frustrations once in a while.

It’s when those negative moments control your life that your emotional balance is at risk. 1 However, don’t give that sadness another second in your day.

2. 2

What you put into your body directly affects how you feel on the outside. Fill yourself with good, healthy foods like fruits and vegetables and limit snacking. Exercise is equally of great importance. Take a few days out of your week for at least half an hour of activity, and try to stick to a routine. 3

3. Be kind to others.

4 Making someone’s day a bit brighter not only puts a smile on his or her face, but also yours as well. Remember to smile and treat each person with pity and respect. Good deeds are contagious (传染的) , and your positive attitude may spread among others.

4. Take it one day at a time.

Being positive isn’t an instant thing. It’s a steady effort that we follow every hour of every day. 5 Instead, focus on living in the moment and doing what you can to make each moment better.

A.Eat healthily and stay fit.

B.Take your lunch breaks outside.

C.Don’t worry about what the future may bring.

D.Gratitude helps you appreciate life in bad times.

E.Take a few minutes to feel sad and accept what happened.

F.Good feelings come from acts of kindness and selflessness.

G.Even going outside for a walk and enjoying the sunshine improves your mood.

【题目】 When you live in total messiness—cookies in your pants draws, and some old New Yorkers or apple seeds in your bed—it's hard to know where to look for when you lose your keys. The other day, after two weeks of searching, I found my keys in the refrigerator. I can't say I was surprised. But I was surprised when I was diagnosed with ADHD(多动症),when I was a junior at Yale.

According to a new study, 11% of school-age children have received an ADHD diagnosis, a 16% increase since 2007. And rising diagnoses mean rising treatments—drugs like Adderall are more accessible than ever. However, the consequences of misuse and abuse of these drugs are dangerous.

Yet also harmful are the consequences of ADHD undiagnosed, an all-too-common story for women like me,who have symptoms, like disorganization and forgetfulness, which look different from those typically expressed in males.

Dr.Ellen, author of Understanding Girls with ADHD, has found around 4 million females with ADHD are not diagnosed. "The main reason is that the diagnostic criteria were developed based on those hyperactive(过度活跃)young boys taken to clinics, making it difficult for girls to be diagnosed unless they behave like hyperactive boys." Ellen says.

Besides, the idea that young women actually have ADHD often causes skepticism. As a top student,I didn't believe my diagnosis at first. My friends were also confused,and rather certain my doctor was misguided.

"Often, if girls are smart or in supportive homes, symptoms are masked," Dr.Ellen says."Girls will hide their inability to meet social expectations. They see their trouble organizing,and concentrating as character flaws(缺陷)."

These years, I am both embarrassed and exhausted by my struggles to keep track of objects, but drug has helped it and made it more bearable.

A.the diagnostic criteria are made according to male ADHD

B.they are smart enough to mask their ADHD symptoms

3What does the word "skepticism" in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A.panic.B.stubbornness.

C.debate.D.doubt.

4What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.Why female ADHD patients develop the disease.

B.Why many female ADHD patients are undiagnosed.

C.How young ADHD patients are cured of the disease.
