二、阅读理解：A
The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981.At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.
Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they can't communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.
One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate with more people around the world. You don't have to depend on others to talk for you, so you are more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.
Furthermore, speaking the second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person's understanding of other culture. So knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.
Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other's problems.
The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don't try to learn another language. It's even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.
1.What's the passage mainly about?
A．The benefits of learning other languages.
B．The reasons why people come to America.

D．How to learn another language.

A．discuss the need of teaching a new language
B．introduce the passage's main characters to the readers
C．describe the advantages of moving to another country
D．show the problem of speaking only one language
3.The underlined phrase “multi­language speakers” (paragraph 5) means “people who know ________.”
A. their mother language B．a new language
C．more than one language D．baby language
4.According to the passage, if you can speak more than one language, you can ________
A．find a better job B．make more friends
C．better understand history D．communicate more independently
5.Based on the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?
A．Not knowing another language.
B．Forgetting one's language.

As we know, there are differences between Western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. Let’s look at some words about animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, “a homeless dog”, “a mad dog”, “a running dog” and “a dog catching a mouse”, have negative meanings. But in Western countries, dogs are considered to be honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive actions. For example, “you are a lucky dog” means y ou are a lucky person. And “every dog has its day” means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person’s serious illness, they say “sick as a dog”. The word “dog-tired” means very
tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in Western cult ure, “cat” is often used to describe a woman who is cruel(冷酷的). There are many other examples of how “cat” is used differently as well.
The rose is regarded as a symbol of love in both China and some Western countries. People think the rose stands for love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.

Their dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p.m. and end at about 11 p．m..Ask your hosts what time you should arrive. It's polite to bring flowers，chocolates or a bottle of wine as a gift.
