17．FLORENCE，Italy-Svetlana Cojochru feels hurt．The Moldovan has lived here seven years as a caregiver to Italian kids and the elderly，but in order to stay she's had to prove her language skills by taking a test which requires her to write a postcard to an imaginary friend and answer a fictional job ad．
Italy is the latest Western European country trying to control a growing immigrant（移民） population by demanding language skills in exchange for work permits，or in some cases，citizenship．
Some immigrant advocates worry that as hard financial times make it more difficult for natives to keep jobs，such measures will become more a vehicle for intolerance than integration（融合）．Others say it's only natural that newcomers learn the language of their host nation，seeing it as a condition to ensure they can contribute to society．
Other European countries laid down a similar requirement for immigrants，and some terms are even tougher．The governments argue that this will help foreigners better join the society and promote understanding across cultures．
Italy，which has a much weaker tradition of immigration，has witnessed a sharp increase in immigration in recent years．In 1990，immigrants numbered some 1.14 million out of Italy's then 56.7 million people，or about 2 percent．At the start of this year，foreigners living in Italy amounted to 4.56 million of a total population of 60.6 million，or 7.5 percent，with immigrants'children accounting for an ever larger percentage of births in Italy．
Cojochru，the Moldovan caregiver，hoped obtaining permanent residence（居住权） would help her bring her two children to Italy； they live with her sister in Moldova，where salaries are among the lowest in Europe．She was skeptical that the language requirement would encourage integration．
Italians always"see me as a foreigner，"an outsider，even though she's stayed in the country for years and can speak the local language fluently，she said．

28．Why does Cojochru have to take a language test？A
A．To continue to stay in Italy．B．To teach her children Italian．
C．To find a better job in Italy．D．To better mix with the Italians．
29．Some people worry that the new language requirement mayB．
A．reduce Italy's population quickly    B．cause conflicts among people
C．lead to financial difficulties        D．put pressure on schools
30．What do we know about Cojochru？C
A．She lives with her sister now in Italy．
B．She enjoys learning the Italian language．
C．She speaks Italian well enough for her job．
D．She wishes to go back to her home country．

4．Benjamin West，the father of American painting，showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age．But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one．In those days，a brush was made from camel's hair．There were no camels nearby．Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead．He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush．
The brush did not last long．Soon Benjamin needed more fur．Before long，the cat began to look ragged（蓬乱）．His father said that the cat must be sick．Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing．
The cat's lot was about to improve． That year，one of Benjamin's cousins，Mr．Pennington，came to visit．He was impressed with Benjamin's drawings．When he went home，he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes．He also sent six engravings （版画）by an artist．These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had  ever  seen．
In 1747，when Benjamin  was nine years old，Mr．Pennington retured for another visit．He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift．He asked  Benjamin's parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia for a visit．
In the city，Mr．Pennington gave  Benjamin  materials for creating oil paintings．The boy began a landscape （风景） painting．Wiliam Wiliams，a well-known painter，came to see him work．Wiliams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home．The books were long and dull．Benjamin could read only a little，having been a poor student．But he later said，"Those two books were my companions by day，and under my pillow at night．"While it is likely that he understood very little of the books，they were his introduction to classical paintings．The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist．

How to Manage Your Phone’s Data Use

Smart phones give you access to a wealth of information and media, but most networks put a limit on the amount of data you can use each month. A typical phone contract includes a data allowance of between 500MB and 10GB per month. 1. You see, your usage can mount up surprisingly quickly — watching a film on the phone is about 700MB in SD, an hour of streaming TV is around 500MB or 60-140MB for the same of radio, chatting on Skype for an hour is around 40MB. 2.

·If possible, wait until you can connect to free Wi-Fi before using your phone’s data features.

·When you are on the road, use your car’s GPS, not your phone, to find the way.3. But maps are preloaded in a GPS, making this free to use.

·4. Many of these are funded by ads that pop up on your screen. Every ad has to download through your network, using up your data allowance.

·If you regularly need to use a lot of data on your phone, consider a data-compressing(压缩) app, such as Onavo(www.onavo.com).5. So you use less of your monthly allowance. You may have to subscribe to such compression services, so you’ll need to weigh up whether it’s worth the cost.

A. The more data, the higher the monthly cost.

B. Remember to use free Wi-Fi anywhere you go.

C. Try these tips to better manage your data use.

D. It compresses data before it is fed to your phone.

E. But you might end up paying more than expected.

F. The phone has to download map data as you move.

G. Be careful of how many “free” games you play on the phone.
