It’s not entirely true that kids learn a second language easily, but it’s still the best time to learn. Babies are basically equipped to hear and distinguish every possible language and dialect, but once they reach 6 months old, they begin to focus on the particular sounds that exist in the languages that they’re exposed to. In this way, kids will naturally and automatically be bilingual(双语的) if they hear multiple languages on a daily basis when they are still babies..

One lady told me of her son who grew up in a very multi-cultural community working at a resort. He would naturally and easily switch from Dutch, to French, to Italian, German and English depending on who he was talking to. Of course that’s an extreme case, but it’s completely possible and easy.

It’ s not true that they will get mixed up by learning multiple languages. They may mix them up purposely simply because certain words or expressions are easier, but they won’t develop any permanent language disabilities. Quite the contrary, bilingual children have been shown to be as much as a year more advanced in learning ability development for 2 and 3 years olds.

Some kids who simply aren’t gifted at learning languages, just as some aren’t gifted at sports or music, will find it difficult to continue schooling in a foreign language. In that case, it may be better not to continue with the foreign language school. Still, it will have been an excellent opportunity for Grade One. Perhaps for Grade Two you could try a bilingual school.

In any case, learning even a small amount of a foreign language, maintaining the ability to hear and pronounce it by listening to music and movies will keep a foundation for later learning. Knowing a second language can be a great benefit for gaining employment.

What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?

A. It’s difficult for kids to learn a second language.

B. Kids are able to learn multiple languages.

C. Kids should be exposed to the native language.

D. Kids enjoy all kinds of different dialects.

What did the lady tell us about her son?

A. He could speak five kinds of languages.

B. He was learning some different languages.

C. He could talk with many people at the same time.

D. He was working in a multi-community.

In which way can learning multiple languages benefit kids according to the text?

A. Mixing up different languages.

B. Distinguish different dialects.

C. Developing learning ability.

D. Developing language disabilities.

What should you do if your kids are not good at learning language?

A. Ask them to turn to sports or music.

B. Encourage them to remain in Grade One.

C. Let them remain in the foreign language school.

D. Send them to a bilingual school later.

A strong wind can be a dangerous thing — sometimes it is powerful enough to knock you off your feet. But to plants, the wind is a source of new life, carrying them or their spores (孢子) thousands of miles.

A NASA satellite called QuikSCAT has discovered highways of wind over the Earth's oceans. Scientists believe these invisible roads may explain why many nonflowering plants, such as mosses (苔) and lichens (地衣), grow where they do.

The satellite is able to send microwaves (微波) from space to the surface of the ocean. The pattern of signals that come back shows which way the winds are blowing.

Using this data, the scientists studied a group of islands in the southern hemisphere (半球), near Antarctica．Winds tend to blow anticlockwise (逆时针) in this region, but there are lots of local differences.

When the researchers compared these local patterns to botanical (植物学) data, they found that the wind had an important effect on where species of mosses, lichens, and other nonflowering plants grow.

For example, Bouvet Island and Heard Island, share 30 per cent of their moss species, 29 per cent of liverworts (叶苔), and 32 per cent of lichens — even though they are 4,430 kilometers apart. In contrast, Gough Island and Bouvet Island, separated by just 1,860 kilometers of sea, share only 16 per cent of mosses and 17 per cent of liverworts. They have no lichens in common.

Ferns (蕨类植物) and flowering plants don't travel as well in the wind, so they don't show the same kinds of distribution (分布) patterns.

This story is about _____.

A．the discovery of wind highways B．how wind travels

C．how wind affects different plants D． one function of the wind

The underlined word "data" in the fourth paragraph means _____.

A．signal B．pattern C．information D． research

Which of the following is wrong?

A．Bouvet Island, Heard Island and Gough Island are all in the southern hemisphere.

B．Winds in the researched area blow anti-clockwise.

C．The scientists shouldn't base this research on how winds affect where ferns grow.

D． Without the discovery of QuikSCAT, the research wouldn't have made sense.

Which of the following diagrams shows the correct position of the islands?

In 1980，Candy Lightner’s 13-year-old daughter Cad was killed by a drunk driver as she walked down a suburban street in California. “I promised myself on the day of my daughter’s death that I would fight to make this needless accident count for something positive in the years ahead,” Candy Lightener later wrote.

The drunk driver received a two-year prison sentence. However, he avoided prison by serving time in a work camp and a halfway house. Ms. Lightner was very angry about that and so organized Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (MADD), which later changed to Mothers Against Drunk Driving. The aim of her organization was to raise public awareness of the serious nature of drunk driving and to promote tough legislation against the crime.

Before Ms. Lightner’s MADD, intoxication (醉酒), including drunk driving, was not taken seriously. Intoxication was often used as an excuse for otherwise unacceptable behavior: “I didn’t know what I was doing—I was drunk.”

Candy Lightner appeared on major television shows, spoke before the US Congress, addressed professional and business, groups, and worked tirelessly for years to change public attitudes, change judicial(审判的) behaviour, and promote tough new legislation. Ms. Lightner left MADD because the organization that she herself created is changing its focus. “I didn’t start MADD to deal with alcohol. I started MADD to deal with the issue of drunk driving.”

The President of the United States awarded her the President’s Volunteer Action Award and she was the subject of the movie “Mothers Against Drunk Drivers: the Candy Lightner Story”.

1.One of the purposes of MADD was to______ .

A. make the public aware of the danger of drunk driving

B. fight against the drunk hit-and-run drivers on the road

C. make new laws against crimes caused by drinking

D. warn people not to drink alcohol while driving

2.which way didn’t Ms. Lightner use to achieve her MADD’s goals?

A. Talking on major TV shows.

B. Giving a talk to businessmen.

C. Applying for a job with the government.

D. Giving suggestions to the US Congress.

3.We can learn from the passage that______.

A. the drunk driver had not been caught

B. drunk driving didn’t receive enough attention before MADD

C. Candy Lightner played a leading role in a film

D. MADD didn’t get much support from society

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Ways to prevent drunk driving

B. Purposes of founding MADD

C. New law against drunk driving

D. Candy Lightner and her MADD

What happens inside the skull of a soccer player when repeatedly heads a soccer ball? That question motivated a challenging new study of the brains of experienced players that has caused discussion and debate among soccer players, and some anxiety among those of us with soccer-playing children.

For the study, researchers at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York selected 34 adults, men and women. All of the volunteers had played soccer since childhood and now competed year-round in adult soccer leagues. Each filled out a detailed questionnaire developed especially for this study to determine how many times they had headed a soccer ball in the previous year, as well as whether they had experienced any known concussions (脑震荡) in the past.

Then the players completed computerized tests of their memory and other learning skills and had their brains scanned, using a complicated new M.R.I. technique which can find structural changes in the brain that can’t be seen during most scans.

According to the data they presented at Radiological Society of North America meeting last month, the researchers found that the players who had headed the ball more than about 1,100 times in the previous 12 months showed significant loss of white matter in parts of their brains involved with memory, attention and the processing of visual information, compared with players who had headed the ball fewer times.

This pattern of white matter loss is “similar to those seen in traumatic (外伤的) brain injury”, like that after a serious concussion, the researchers reported, even though only one of these players was reported to have ever experienced a concussion.

The players who had headed the ball about 1,100 times or more in the past year were also generally worse at recalling lists of words read to them, forgetting or fumbling the words far more often than players who had headed the ball less.

1.The passage is most probably a ________.

A．news report B．research report

C．story for soccer players D．text for doctors

2. In which way can researchers find the structural changes in the brain?

A．Computerized test B．Questionnaire

C．Scanning D．M.R.I. technique

3. From the passage we can conclude that frequent heading may have ________.

A．significant effect on brain B．little effect on one’s brain

C．nothing to do with the brain injury D．one’s memory improved

4.What is likely to be the cause of memory loss?

A．Playing soccer frequently B．Tests of their memory

C．White matter loss D．Information processing

5.The underlined word “fumbling” is closest in meaning to ________?

A．remembering B．misunderstanding C．recalling D．missing
