语篇专题练习（二十）
一、阅读理解
A
Each year on Feb. 21, UNESCO(联合国教科文组织) holds an International Mother Language Day (IMLD). The event is to help people to pay attention to the disappearance of the world's languages: many of them are disappearing each year. UNESCO sees this as a terrible fact.
What happens when a language dies out? Something great is lost—not just sounds and marks but the way that people understand the world and communicate with each other. We keep different cultures and traditions through languages. Kill a language and all these are killed too.
Through IMLD, more and more people come to realize the terrible situation and try to stop it. Google's 2018 Endangered(濒临灭绝的) Languages Project is a good example.
Many speakers and protectors of endangered languages upload(上传) texts, audios and
videos to the project website. They want to introduce the way that people communicate
and express themselves around the world.
The Myaamia Project is the same kind of effort to revive the language spoken by the Miami tribes(部落) of the United States. Project members work to encourage people to study and communicate with this language, which died out in the 1960s.
These activities give life to those endangered languages. People who work to keep languages alive are not limited to the past. Many young people design apps and use social media to support their activities. They “spread the word” to save the word.
So, while the problem of disappearing languages remains a very serious one, there is hope. We all have a special feeling of our mother language. This is why we should remember the wise words of late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela: “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that g oes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”

The Garbage (垃圾) Project started at the University of Arizona in 1973. Since then, the students and teachers in it have studied the modern garbage in different cities.
To study the garbage, the students had to travel to landfills (填埋场) , the places where cities bury (填埋) their garbage. While the students were studying the garbage they wore special clothes. Students were very careful when
they opened bags of garbage.
One important thing the students have learned from studying the garbage is that the garbage in landfills disappears very slowly. That was surprising to both the students and many scientists who had thought that about 70 % of the garbage in landfills would disappear quickly. Even in cities where it rains a lot, the students found newspapers from 1948, 40-year-old hot dogs, and vegetables from 1970. And the students also found many more empty bottles of cola than they expected.
How to dispose of our garbage well depends on what kind of garbage it is: regular(普通的) garbage, dangerous materials, or recyclable materials, such as newspapers and glass bottles. Regular garbage goes to regular landfills. Dangerous materials are harmful to people's health and the environment. They shouldn't go into regular landfills.
Homes are full of dangerous waste. One kind of the dangerous waste in homes is batteries. When batteries are buried directly（直接地）in a landfill, they often break open. The poison inside them moves through rain water to the bottom of the landfill. Then it can pollute the natural water in the ground.
Another dangerous waste from homes is motor oil. When people pour old motor oil on the ground or throw it
in the garbage, it pollutes the environment.
Our garbage problem is not new, but as the world's population continues to grow, it will become a bigger and bigger problem.
11. The Garbage Project started at the University of Arizona in _______________.
A. 1973
B. 1970
C. 1948
D. 1940
12. To study the modern garbage, the students had to do many things except ____________.
A. Wearing special clothes
B. traveling to landfills
C. burying the garbage themselves
D. opening bags of garbage
13. The underlined words "dispose of" in Paragraph 4 means ___________.
A. crash into
B. deal with
C. worry about
D. put up
14. From the article, we know old motor oil ____________.
A. should go to regular landfills
B. isn't harmful garbage
C. mustn't be poured on the ground
D. never pollutes the environment
15. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. There are only two kinds of dangerous waste in homes.
B. Scientists thought about 70 % of the garbage in landfills would disappear slowly.
C. The students found empty bottles of cola were not as many as they expected.
D. Batteries often break open when they are buried directly in a landfill.
D
