二、阅读理解
Learning Chinese could be one of the most important decisions you have ever made. With the world’s largest population and the rapidly growing middle class, China stands to become the engine of the world's economy in the coming years. This will make learning Chinese very important to people in many industries, or to those who wish to visit China or learn about its culture and history.
There is an ongoing effort to modernize the writing system and standardize the language. An increasing number of people learning Chinese are learning putonghua, so unless you absolutely need to learn a dialect (such as Cantonese), be sure you are studying putonghua.
For native English speakers, Chinese is one of the most difficult and most different languages to learn. The vocabulary is wholly unfamiliar and unlike anything they know. In addition, in the Chinese tone system, words are spoken in four different tones, which helps to distinguish them. Furthermore, there is a Chinese writing system — a collection of thousands of individual ideograms (表意文字), or symbols, which represent a word or an idea. These ideograms have no phonetic (语音的) value — that is to say, we can’t tell how the word is pronounced by how it is written. There is a method of presenting written Chinese in a phonetic script called Pinyin. If you are learning Chinese, you’ll be working with this Pinyin system, but the beauty of the traditional writing system shouldn’t be ignored. All these factors make learning Chinese difficult for us. Yet, for a determined learner, there’s always a way to overcome these difficulties.
22．Why is learning Chinese becoming more and more important
A．Chinese engines are very welcome.
B．China has the world’s largest population.
C．There are more and more rich people in China.
D．China is becoming more and more important to the world’s economy.
23．What’s the last paragraph mainly about
A．The Chinese tone system. B．The Chinese writing system.
C．The difficulties of learning Chinese. D．The advantages of learning Chinese.
24．What would be probably written following this text
A．The sources of Chinese characters. B．The importance of learning Chinese.
C．The advice on how to learn Chinese. D．The difficulties of learning other languages.
25．What can we learn about Chinese from the text
A．Chinese is as difficult as English.
B．The Chinese writing system has phonetic value.
C．The traditional Chinese writing system should be valued.
D．As long as Pinyin is learned well, one can learn Chinese well.
课本原文
THE CHINESE WRITING SYSTEM:
CONNECTING THE PAST AND THE PRESENT
China is widely known for its ancient civilisation which has continued all the way through into modem times, despite the many ups and downs in its history. There are many reasons why this has been possible, but one of the main factors has been the Chinese writing system.
At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based language. it dates back several thousand years to the use of longgu-animal bones and shells on which symbols were carved by ancient Chinese people.Some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in today’s hanzi.
By the Shang Dynasty (around 16001046 BC), these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system developed into different forms, as it was a time when people were divided geographically,leading to many varieties of dialects and characters. This, however, changed under Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynusty (221-207 BC).
Emperor Qinshihuang united the seven major states into one unified country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one direction. That writing system was of great importance in uniting the Chinese people and culture. Even today, no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak, they can all still communicate in writing.
Written Chinese has also become an important means by which China's present is connected with its past. People in modem times can read the classic works which were written by Chinese in ancient times. The high regard for the Chinese writing system can be seen in the development of Chinese characters as an art form, known as Chinese calligraphy, which has become an important part of Chinese culture.
Today, the Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture. As China plays a greater role in global affairs, an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate China's culture and history through this amazing language.

三、完形填空
Very few of us become fluent in another language by learning it in high school. I went to university and then moved across the country to seek a demanding job, married and 30 children. I made a(n) 31 to keep the little French I learned in school, but eventually I realized that this was really pointless. I was quite aware that new languages are best learned when young and that our abilities in that regard decline with 32 .
However, just before my 50th birthday, I 33 French classes. After I was tested to see which group I belonged to, I was placed at almost the introductory 34 . When I looked around at my first class, I was surprised that many of the students were learning French as a third, fourth or even fifth language.
Contrary to my 35 that learning a new language was impossibly difficult, there were people who learned new languages as a matter of course. While I had always thought of myself as a 36 learner, that was no longer the case. I 37 new vocabulary rather slowly. What I learned one week ago seemed to 38 as soon as I learned the next skill. I had to look up the same words and language structures over and over. Now, after several years of learning, I can listen to the news in French and 39 90% of it on the first try, read a novel if the language isn’t too difficult and carry on a conversation if it doesn’t go too fast. I’ve learned so much beyond grammar and vocabulary. I’ve met people from around the world and all walks of life who have the 40 to make a fool of themselves in order to learn something new. I’ve been taught by patient and inspirational teachers from many corners of the world. Listening to the news as it is 41 to the people of France, I have a renewed understanding of how something can look 42 different from another viewpoint. I’ve learned that a language is not just a set of words, but a way of 43 . But most of all, I’ve learned that it is never too 44 to learn something new.

四、语法填空

It was Mother’s Day morning last year. My five-year-old son, Tenyson, and I were leaving the supermarket after shopping when 45 old woman fell over at the entrance and hit her head on the ground. Her husband was with her, but 46 woman was seriously hurt and she was shaking with pain.
At 47 front of the supermarket a charity (慈善) group was selling flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we buy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,” he said. I was amazed that he’d come up with such 48 sweet idea. So we went to the flower shop to buy a flower for the lady.
By then rescuers had arrived, and were attending to (照料) the injured woman. As we walked up to her, 49 (I) son became frightened by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to approach her.
Instead I gave 50 flower to the woman’s husband and told 51 (he), “My son is very worried about your wife and bought her this flower to cheer her up.”
At that moment, the old man was moved and said, “Thank you so much. You have 52 good son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”
The man then gave his wife the flower, telling her whom it was 53 . Though badly hurt, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with thanks in her eyes and gave him 54 smile.

I am delighted to have watched an interview recently, from which I’ve known how to learn English well.
Firstly, it’s necessary to listen attentively and take notes in class and review my lessons after class. Secondly, I need to learn a lot of words and phrases by heart. Moreover, I should communicate with my classmates in English as often as possible in order to improve my listening and speaking skills. Last but not least, keeping a diary in English will also be of benefit to me.
In brief, I’m confident these methods will help me improve my English.
