Well, sort of.But as time goes by, we tend to blame age 24 problems that are not necessarily age—related.“When a teenager can’t find her keys,she thinks it's because she’s distracted or disorganized,”says Paul Gold.“A 70-year-old blames her 25 .”In fact,the 70-year-old may have been 26 things for decades.In healthy people,memory doesn’t worsen as 27 as many of us think.“As we 28 ,the memory mechanism isn’t 29 ,”says psychologist Fergus Craik.”It’s just inefficient.”/The brain’s processing 30 slows down over the years,though no one knows exactly 31.

Answer the questions below each passage by choosing A, B, C and D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Passage OnePrior to the 20th century, many languages with small numbers of speakers survived for centuries. The increasingly interconnected modern world makes it much more difficult for small language communities to live in relative isolation, a key factor in language maintenance and preservation.It remains to be seen whether the world can maintain its linguistic and cultural diversity in the centuries ahead. Many powerful forces appear to work against it :population growth, which pushes migrant populations into the world’s last isolated locations; mass tourism; global telecommunications and mass media; and the spread of gigantic global corporations. All of these forces appear to signify a future in which the language of advertising, popular culture, and consumer products become similar. Already English and a few other major tongues have emerged as global languages of commerce and communication. For many of the world’s peoples, learning one of these languages is viewed as the key to education, economic opportunity, and a better way of life.Only about 3,000 languages now in use are expected to survive the coming century. Are most of the rest doomed in the century after that?Whether most of these languages survive will probably depend on how strongly cultural groups wish to keep their identity alive through a native language. To do so will require an emphasis on bilingualism(mastery of two languages). Bilingual speakers could use their own language in smaller spheres---at home, among friends, in community settings---and a global language at work, in dealings with government, and in commercial spheres. In this way, manysmall languages could sustain their cultural and linguistic integrity alongside global languages, rather than yield to the homogenizing(同化的)forces of globalization.Ironically, the trend of technological innovation that has threatened minority languages could also help save them. For example, some experts predict that computer software translation tools will one day permit minority language speakers to browse the Internet using their native tongues. Linguists are currently using computer—aided learning tools to teach a variety of threatened languages.For many endangered languages, the line between revival and death is extremely thin. Language is remarkably resilient(有活力的),however. It is not just a tool for communicating, but also a powerful way of separating different groups, or of demonstrating group identity. Many indigenous(原生的,土著的)communities have shown that it is possible to live in the modern world while reclaiming their unique identities through language.41.Minority languages can be best preserved in __________.A.an increasingly interconnected worldB.maintaining small numbers of speakersC.relatively isolated language communitiesD.following the tradition of the 20th century42.According to Paragraph 2, that the world can maintain its linguistic diversity in the future is _______.A.uncertain B.unrealistic C.foreseeable D.definite43.According to the author, bilingualism can help_________.A.small languages become acceptable in work placesB.homogenize the world’s languages and culturesC.global languages reach home and community settingsD.speakers maintain their linguistic and cultural identityputer technology is helpful for preserving minority languages in that it_________.A.makes learning a global language unnecessaryB.facilitates the learning and using of those languagesC.raises public awareness of saving those languagesD.makes it easier for linguists to study those languages45.In the author’s view, many endangered languages are________.A.remarkably well-kept in this modern worldB.exceptionally powerful tools of communicationC.quite possible to be revived instead of dying outD.a unique way of bringing different groups togetherPassage TwoEveryone,it seems,has a health problem。

Masks are very useful. At Halloween, children wear masks for fun; they may, of course, also think they are disguising themselves, but chiefly their motive is to experience the joy of saying “ boo” to someone. Soldiers wore masks for protection, in ancient times against swords and battle-axes, in more recent times against poison gas. Bank robbers wear masks to disguise themselves, and though of course this disguise is a sort of protection, a robber 's reason for wearing a mask is fairly distinct from a soldier 'Alsl . of these reasons so far are easily understood, but we may have more trouble grasping the reason that primitive people use masks in religious rituals. Some ritual masks seem merely to be attempts to frighten away evil spirits, and some seem merely to be disguises so that the evil spirits will not know who the wearer is. The masks are usually made of paper. But most religious masks are worn with the idea that the wearer acquires, through a union with supernatural powers, a new identity, and thus in effect becomes—really becomes, not merely pretends to be —a new person.VI. 写信(40 points)Write a letter to your friend according to the following situation: Y ou(Weiping) haven 't heard from your friend(Zhijie) since the SARS outbreak.

The speaker of sign language uses hand gestures in order to communicate. Basic sign language has been used for a long, long time. But sign language wasn’t really developed until about 250 years ago. In the middle of the 1700’s, a Frenchman named Epee developed sign language. Epee was able to speak and hear, but he worked during most of his life as a teacher of deaf people in France. Epee developed a large number of vocabulary words for sign 1anguage. Epee’s system used mostly “picture-image”signs. We call them picture-image signs because the signs create a picture.18.

As soon as the jar is full within a half inch of headspace, wipe the rim of the jar clean,immediately cap the jar with the hot lid and place the jar in a steamer.25. First check the jars for cracks or chips and place the lids in boiling water to sterilize.V.标出与段落内容无关的句子(10 points)Read the following paragraphs and cross out the irrelevant sentences.Youth workers Bill Nash and Jim Boyle are house-hunters, not so much for a house as for a concerned family willing to house and feed troubled youngsters temporarily. They try to give prompt (及时的) attention to those who cannot or will not live at home. There are numerous parents who want to find houses for their children to live by themselves.3For some, leaving home may have been the result of a hasty decision, based on a scorching (灼热的) remark and the subsequent tempest (风暴) within the family. The cooling-off period away from the family is a time to soothe (安抚) feelings. With sympathetic outsiders, youngsters have a chance to redeem (弥补) themselves. The hope, of course, is that they will learn to relate to adults again and quickly resume a normal life of harmony with their own families.Some people refrain from offering their homes, expressing vague fears of the harmful effects on their own children. But this has not been the case, even when the problem of the “visitor” was the illegal use of narcotics (麻醉剂) . One parent remarked, “With us it worked the other way. The horror of drugs became real to my own son. We got a lot more than we gave.” The “visitor” really helped the family avoid the danger of becoming drug addicts.VI.写信(40 points)You ( Liu Dan ) are a student from School of English and International Studies. You were impressed by the students’ performance of Shakespeare’s play King Lear (《李尔王》) at University of International Business and Economics and want to know more about drama.
