In this semester,Professor Van Rijnsoever of Utrecht University of the Netherlands is to teach "Dutch Culture in the World",in English.
The language is the university's choice.Actually sixty percent of masters'programs at Utrecht University are in English.At higher degrees'level,no courses are taught in Dutch at all.
Utrecht is not alone.
The University of Eindhoven has even completely kicked the Dutch language out of its campus. Even the sandwiches in the stores there are sold as cheese rather than with the Dutch word"kaas".
As a result,the Netherlands has one of the world's highest levels of English proficiency(流利)among non-native speaking countries,second only to Sweden.
But not everyone is happy with that.
"I don't mind.Most of the literature is in English,"says Professor Van Rijnsoever."As a teacher it's not that much of a problem because we also do research in English.For the students,you see they are struggling to express themselves properly."
He added,"We aren't as good at English as they think we are.We shouldn't use a weaker language in education.If we use just English in higher education,Dutch will get worse.We add a bit of English and we lose a bit of Dutch.We cannot master Dutch and English at the same time."
Actually,English is so widely used in Dutch universities that a group of lecturers are worried about a possible"linguicide"and demanded that the universities stop creating more courses in English until an official research has been carried out.
"Dutch is our mother tongue.Our culture is based on Dutch,"says Annette de Groot,a lecturer at the University of Amsterdam."What would happen to our identity(身份)if our mother tongue is no longer the main language of higher education?"
"It is high time for an honest debate,"said a teacher from the University of Erasmus.
28.Which university teaches all its courses in English?
A.Utrecht.
B.Eindhoven.
C.Amsterdam.
D.Erasmus.
29.What does the underlined word"that"in paragraph6refer to?
A.The highest level of English proficiency in the Netherlands.
B.The teaching of"Dutch Culture in the World"in English.
C.The kick-out of the Dutch language from all schools.
D.The widespread use of English in the Dutch universities.
30.What can we learn from Van Rijnsoever's words?
A.The all-English courses might weaken the mastery of Dutch.
B.Students can learn two languages equally well at the same time.
C.The stress on English can help the spread of Dutch culture.
D.The students of Utrecht are happy with the all-English courses.
31.What is"linguicide"?
A.The birth of a language.
B.The loss of one's cultural identity.
C.The war between cultures.
D.The popularity of a language.

What you do after studying could have a big effect(影响)on how well you learn and remember.
Today on Education Tips,we will explore two no-cost ways that can help you improve your learning: wakeful rest and sleep.
When many students finish studying,they often go straight to another activity.Perhaps they look at their phone or computer.They might even play a video game or watch television.But research suggests that resting after your study may help you remember what you have studied.
The basic idea is this:by stopping your activity after the study,your brain gets a chance to rest. Resting is difficult when you are playing computer games.
While this might sound unusual to you,many studies have explored the benefits(好处)of resting after learning-what is called"wakeful rest".
A2019study found that both young and older adults were able to better remember information they learned after doing wakeful rest.
If you want to give"wakeful rest"a try,here are a few simple things to do.Rest quietly for five to ten minutes.Do not look at your phone,read stories or play games.It is really that easy!
Besides wakeful rest,sleep is also important for learning.The Division of Sleep Medicine at Harvard Medical School(HMS)notes that sleep helps people to learn in two ways.A report on the school's website explains that"a sleep-deprived(剥夺)person cannot focus attention well and therefore cannot learn well".It also says,"Sleep itself helps us to memorize and that memorizing is very important for learning new information."
The National Sleep Foundation(NSF)suggests that adults between the ages of20and64get between7and9hours of sleep per day.Teenagers may need a little bit more,and people over the age of65may need a little less.
Try to get some"wakeful rest"after a study.Then try to get a good night's sleep.That's it-a simple,no-cost way to help you remember what you learn.
32.What is paragraph3mainly about?
A.The importance of sleep.
B.The good ways to get a rest.
C.The reason for having a rest.
D.The types of resting activities.
33.Which activity might be recommended shortly after studying?
A.Reading a newspaper.
B.Playing a video game.
C.Sitting there doing nothing.
D.Having a nice sleep at night.
34.How long should teenagers sleep each day according to NSF?
A.Less than7hours.
B.Just7hours.
C.No more than9hours.
D.Around9hours.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Low-cost Tips on Working
B.Good Things to Do After Your Study
C.Why Do We Need to Have a Good Sleep?
D.How Long Should We Rest After Learning?

How to Start a Friendship
To increase the chances that a friendship will grow,children need to express openness to others.
A very basic way to show openness is to exchange greetings with kids around them.36If another child says"Hi!"to them,they usually look away or say nothing because they feel awkward and shy.But they are giving the other child the impression that"I don't like you,and leave me alone!"Actually,that's not how they feel,although that's what they're showing.On the other hand, some outgoing children may go so far that they keep greeting anyone even if the other children feel uncomfortable with this behavior.It doesn't open the door for friendship.37
Praising is another easy way to show openness to friendship.Everyone feels good to receive a sincere praise,and usually likes people who are kind enough to notice his best side!
38It could mean lending a pencil to a classmate,saving him a seat,helping him carry something,or sharing a lunch treat.Kindness leads more kindness and it's one of the best ways to begin a friendship.It is true that kind children are better liked by the other kids.But if they try to buy friendship with money or expensive gifts,it will never work.39
Showing openness just opens a door to friendship.40To increase the chances that a friendship will grow,children need to send their friendship invitations to kids who might come in.
A.Actually,it shuts the door.
B.However,shy children often have trouble with this.
C.Instead,it is to show weakness rather than kindness.
D.Expressing openness to others opens the door to friendship.
E.But it doesn't guarantee(保证)that anyone will walk through that door.
F.Small kindnesses can also be a good way to send invitation for friendship.
G.Extend their friendship invitations to the right kids who want to come in.

Why61Britons and Americans have different spellings for the same words?
Noah Webster must be62(responsibility)for this-at least in part.He believed it was important for America63(show)its difference from Britain through language.He wrote the first American spelling,grammar64schoolbooks.He also thought words should be spelled more like how they sound.
Many years before he published his well-known American Dictionary of the English Language, he published a much65(small)and more radical(激进的)dictionary called A Compendious Dictionary.It included spellings such as w-i-m-m-e-n for"women"add t-u-n-g for"tongue".That dictionary turned out to be a failure.However,he succeeded in introducing words such as"favor" "theater"instead66"favour""theatre"in his next dictionary years later.
There are some word differences we can't blame Webster.For example,"while"and"whilst" mean the same thing,but nobody really67(know)why"whilst"survived in Britain but disappeared in America.According to World Wide Words,"whilst"68(think)to be more formal than"while",even in Britain.69(Obvious),"whilst"is not accepted in America because we are a less formal nation.
Geographic separation of the two70(population)also let the language change differently
in the two countries.
