Why should you learn Sign Language? Do you want to improve your communication with a family member or friend who is deaf? Do you want to be able to communicate with deaf people in general? Would you like to advance in your career by being able to communicate in ASL? Do you want to be a Sign Language interpreter?

Sign language is not just a random (随意的) collection of gestures but a full-blown (完全成熟的) language in its own right, complete with its own grammatical rules. Each country or region has its own sign language, as different from each other as English is from Spanish. Each version of sign language is somewhat linked to the spoken language in its region. For example, American sign language does share similarities with English, even though it is its own language.

The advantages of knowing sign language in addition to a spoken language are many. Communication becomes possible on many levels with the deaf community, with other people either hearing or not in any of the above situations, as well as many more.

While other languages take years to learn, American Sign Language can be taught in a much shorter time period. It is one of the easiest languages to learn because most of the signs were developed to mimic the actual word or phrase it is representing. Even the alphabet signs look like the letters of the English alphabet.

American Sign Language, or ASL, is the third most used language in the United States. Used by the deaf community, interpreters, and friends and family of the deaf. There are a lot of sites on the internet that not only shows you the sign with video, but will help you practice reading signs as well.

Teaching even hearing babies sign language seems to be the fashion in recent years and for good reason. Communicating in sign language is fun and natural as babies naturally use body gestures in early communication. Teaching baby sign language actually appears to enhance the learning of verbal skills and brain development of the children involved.

Which two regions share similarities in their sign language?

A. Spain and Britain.

B. Mexico and USA.

C. Australia and Canada.

D. Japan and Korea.

Sign language ________.

A. is a collection of gestures

B. is easier to learn than English

C. is not very popular in USA

D. has no link to the spoken language

One of the reasons for learning sign language is that it ________.

A. increase self-confidence

B. provides more choices of career

C. trains brains

D. is interesting

Babies’ learning sign language cannot ________.

A. help them talk sooner

B. help them walk sooner

C. increase communication at a very early age

D. enrich relationship with parents and the people who take care of them

Which of the following topics is not discussed in the passage?

A. What is sign language?

B. The advantages of knowing sign language.

C. The relation of American sign language and English.

D. Ways of learning sign language.

第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

It was a warm April day when a big fat envelope came in the mail from the only college I had ever imagined attending. I tore open the packet. My eyes were fixed on the word “congratulations”. I don’t remember ever smiling so wide.

Then I looked at my financial package.

The cost of Dream School’s tuition, room and board was around $40,000— an impossible sum! How could I afford to attend? What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges were offering me free tuition? My other choices were good, solid schools even if they weren’t as famous as my first choice.

In my mind, attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a world-class writer. My parents understood how I felt. They told me that even though it would be a financial problem, I could go wherever I would be happiest. But as I was always careful with money, I wasn’t sure what to do.

One of the schools that offered me a full ride had an informational dinner one night in the spring. Considering my parents’ financial difficulties, I decided to drive the 45 minutes and attend. At first, all I had planned to do was smile politely, eat free food ,listen quietly. But I surprised myself.

At dinner the president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus(including guest lectures and social gatherings). He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future events. He continued with explanations of professors, class sizes, activities, and sporting events on campus. As he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be the best one for me. It seemed small yet with many great programs. It seemed challenging yet caring.

As the president ended his speech, we clapped politely and pushed back our chairs. As I walked out that door, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, I realized that I would be spending the next four years right there.

In all honesty, my university is not as well-known as my “dream” university. However, it turned out to be the right choice of schools for me.

56. How did the author feel when he started to read the letter?

A. He was full of joy.    B. He was lost in his dream.

C. He was worried about the money.    D. He was uncertain which school to go to.

57. We can learn from the passage that the parents were _______.

       A. honest B. strict   C. supportive  D. decisive

58. In Paragraph 5, “offered me a full ride” can be replaced by “_______”.

       A. would pay for transport to the school

       B. would show me around the campus

       C. would offer free meals at all events

       D. would charge me nothing for tuition

59. What does the author mainly want to say?

       A. Your second-choice college may actually be your best fit.

       B. You should consider comfort in your choice of schools.

       C. You should try your best to attend your dream school.

       D. Your choice of schools should be based on their fame.

There is one thing better than making a new friend, and that is keeping an old one.

——Elmer G Letterman

Two years ago my family moved. The day we left, my best friend and I cried together in my  36  bedroom for hours. I was miserable during the five-hour car ride to my new house. Life was  37 .

On the first day of school, I called my best friend to tell her how it had gone. Then on Halloween, I sent her a letter and a picture of my new friends and me.

Finally, she wrote me a letter. It wasn’t  38  a letter—a piece of paper saying, “Best friends forever”.

When I finally got her e-mail address, I e-mailed her the  39  letter I have ever written. After the third e-mail with no  40 , my messages grew shorter and shorter.  41  each passing day, my  42  grew.I never received a reply from her.

Mom said that I  43  try calling my other friends, and that I didn’t need to always call her.  44  my best friend, the girl that I had known from my childhood?

My first  45  was automatic.“No way!” But after five more e-mail messages, I started to consider what my mom had  46 .Every night for about a week, I stayed up in bed,  47 , “Should I keep trying or...?”

The way I looked at it was that: if I’m her best friend, she’d  48  a minute to push a few buttons on the phone, or type a short “hello” on the computer. To me, keeping in touch is part of being a friend and it is important. To her, it really didn’t seem to  49 .

After two years of  50 , I finally got a phone call from her—my best friend. It was a big  51 .She told me how sorry she was for not writing, and about how busy she had been. I forgot about everything that had happened and how annoyed I had been with her.I  52  her.I guess keeping in touch just isn’t her  53 .

I have realized true friends never really lose their special  54 .Even after two years, it felt like we had just talked yesterday.
