studies sometimes not successful? Well, friends, cheer up and smile all the time. If you see the world with
your warm heart, you'll find that the whole world smiles to you. While in school, sometimes you are tired
of your lessons, but have you ever noticed the happy smile on your teacher's face when you did a good job?
One day it is fine. Just before you go out, it suddenly starts to rain. Maybe you would feel very sad and
start to complain about the weather. Butfriends, why don't you sit down and listen to the free concerts that
the nature offers you? And with the timely (及时地) rain, crops in the fields will grow better and better and
farmers will have a good harvest.
Although everyone wants to succeed in what he tries to do, sometimes failure can't be avoided. I think
failure is not terrible, and the terrible thing is that we are afraid of it and give up hope. When we face failure,
we must be confident (信心) in ourselves, draw a useful lesson from it and try our best to finish what we
have decided to do. As a popular saying goes,"Failure is the mother of success".
Attitude (态度) decides everything. With an optimistic (乐观) attitude life is easy and pleasant. Let's smile
to whatever we meet and the whole world will smile to us.
B. their studies are successful
C. they see the world with their heart
D. life is tiring
B. shouldn't be afraid of it
C. shouldn't give up hope
D. All of the above
B. Complaining about Life
C. Failure is the Mother of Success
D. It is Very Hard to Succeed
A story from the Bible (圣经) tells of old Babylon, where the men decided to build a tower that would touch the sky. But God was unhappy, and he made them speak different languages. They couldn’t understand each other, so their dream never came true.
Yet the dream remains alive: if all men speak the same language, they can do anything. L. L. Zamenhof from Poland was among the men who pursue this dream. He developed Esperanto (世界语) between 1877 and 1885. As the most successful man-made world language, it is spoken by over two million people around the world. Last month, the World Esperanto Congress (大会), dealing with language rights, ended in Sweden. The 2004 conference will be held in Beijing.
Most Esperanto speakers are in Central and Eastern Europe and in East Asia, particularly Chinese mainland. Esperanto has two advantages (优点). First, it’s easy. Each letter has exactly one sound and there are just 16 basic grammar rules. The second advantage is that it belongs to no one country.
But Esperanto has only reached a small number of people compared with natural languages widely used around the world--such as English or Chinese. While these languages are deeply connected with their nations and cultures, Esperanto doesn’t have this background.
Will Esperanto really become a global language? It remains a question.
1. The writer tells us a story at the beginning to ________.
A. explain why men have been making the effort to create a language shared by all
B. explain why men now speak different languages
C. show the relationship between man and God
D. prove language is very important
2. What does the word“pursue”in the second paragraph mean?
A. Realize. B. Work for. C. Be against. D. Follow.
3. What is the basic difference between Esperanto and English?
A. More people speak English than Esperanto.
B. Esperanto words are easier to spell.
C. Esperanto has fewer grammar rules.
D. Esperanto is not supported by any country or culture.
4. What does the story mainly talk about?
A. Advantages and disadvantages of Esperanto.
B. Men’s dream of sharing the same language.
C. Comparison of Esperanto and other languages like English and Chinese.
D. The most successful planned language-Esperanto.
