When 4﹣year﹣old British Prince George started his first day of school in September, 2017, Chinese language was on his course.And he wasn't alone. According to a report in September, about 51 percent of UK parents want their children to learn Chinese, as it's believed to be one of the most useful languages to know.In fact, the popularity of Chinese drove the UK government to launch the Chinese Excellence Program in September last year. Its goal is to make at least 5, 000 British state middle school students speak Chinese well by 2020.The language has become the second most spoken foreign language in the US, after only Spanish (西班牙语), with over 2. 1 million speakers, according to a survey.Many US famous people such as Facebook founder (脸书创始人) Mark Zuckerberg and Obama's daughter, Malia Obama, study Chinese as a second language.So far, 67 countries and regions (地区) have included Chinese in their national course, so why are so many countries crazy about learning Chinese?One reason could be that as China continues to develop quickly, Chinese is increasingly becoming a useful tool for people's personal and professional growth. "I think everyone believes that China will be the next great superpower (超级大国)…even if it' s not a superpower like America. It still has an important influence in the future, " said Aisling.McCaffrey from Canada, who studied at the Renmin University of China, "Learning Chinese is the best way to make sure that you can be part of that growth."This opinion was shared by former (前任的) British Prime Minister David Cameron, who urged(呼吁) British students to learn Chinese to "seal (抓住)tomorrow's business deals" in 2013.(1)Why do UK parents want their children to learn Chinese?________A. Chinese is on the course.B. Princess George starts to learn Chinese.C. The UK government sets up the program.D. Chinese is one of the most useful languages..(2)________asked British students to learn Chinese.A. Malia ObamaB. David CameronC. Prince GeorgeD. Mark Zuckerberg.(3)Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?________A. Aisling McCaffery is from Canada.B. Learning Chinese is the best way to be famous.C. There are more than 2.1 million Chinese speakers in the US.D. 67 countries and regions have included Chinese in their national course..(4)What's the best title of the passage?________A. The ways to learn Chinese wellB. The increasing number in learning ChineseC. Why learning Chinese has risen around the worldD. The relationship between language and development.14. What is the difference between a fear and a phobia? You might have a fear of dogs if you have ever been bitten by one. However, if you avoid walking down streets where you think there might be a dog, you may have a phobia, which is a strong unnatural fear. If the fear has started to change a person's life, he or she probably has a phobia. Different surveys say that between 10 and 80 percent of us have at least one phobia.You can probably guess what some of the most "popular" phobias are. Flying may be the safest way to travel, but many people are scared of doing it. Fear of heights is also very common. For example, Spider﹣Man actor Tobey Maquire can't stand highplaces. However, Tobey is not afraid of spiders that most people are afraid of. Rupert Grint, who plays in the Harry Potter movies, is in fear of spiders. "In one scene of the movie, we come into the large spider's hole, and there we meet a spider that is the size of an elephant and really scary because he has these hairs. I'm really scared of spiders, " he said.Some people have phobias that are more unusual. For example, cats are very cute for most of us, but not for such powerful people in history as Alexander the Great and Napolean Bonaparte. Actor Nicole Kidman says, "I'm not scared of snakes or spiders, but I'm scared of butterflies.Sometimes when I came home from school, the biggest butterfly you had ever seen would be just sitting on our front gate.I would climb over the fence, move slowly to the side of the house, or do anything to avoid having to go through the front gate." Clowns (小丑) are not so funny for actor Johnny Depp, whose childhood memory of the "painted faces and fake smiles" still makes him scared. Some other weird (怪诞的)phobias, including chewing gum, old doors or windows and footsteps, also fear some famous persons, such as Orah Winfred, Billy Bob and Sigmund Fred.(1)Rupert Grint who acted in Harry Potter is scared of________.A. dogsB. snakesC. spidersD. butterflies.(2)Which of the following behaviors can be a phobia for these persons?________A. Cathy dislikes keeping a pet cat at home.B. Victor cannot sleep well before the exams.C. Linda feels very tired climbing the mountains.D. Doris shouts crazily whenever hearing footsteps at night..(3)We can infer (推断) from the passage that________.A. people are born with phobiasB. phobias are common in our daily lifeC. famous people are easier to get phobiasD. phobias do not influence people's life at all.15. " Don't tell anyone". We hear these words when someone tells a secret to us. But it can be hard to keep a secret. We're often tempted to " ________", even if we regret it later.According to Asim Shah, a professor at Baylor College of Medicine, US, keeping a secret may well "become a burden". This is because people often have an "obsessive (过度的)and anxious urge to share________with someone".An earlier study, led by Anita E. Kelly, a scientist at the University of NotreDame, US, suggested that keeping a secret could cause stress. People entrusted with secrets can suffer from depression(沮丧), anxiety, and body aches, reported the Daily Mail.But with secrets so often getting out, why do people share them at all? Shah explained that people often feel that it will help them keep a person as a friend. Another reason people share secrets is guilt over keeping it from someone close to them. A sense of distrust can develop when people who are close do not share it with each other. "Keeping or sharing secrets often puts people in a position of either gaining or losing the trust of someone, " according to Shah.He added that talkative people could let secrets slip out. But this doesn't mean that it is a good idea only to share secrets with quiet people.A quiet person may be someone who keeps everything inside.To tell such a person a secret may cause them stress, and make them talk about the secret.Shah said that to judge whether to tell someone a secret, you'd better put yourself in their position.Think about how you would feel to be told that you mustn't give the information away.Shah also recommended that if you accidentally give up someone's secret, you should come clean about it. Let the person know that their secret isn't so secret anymore.(1)What is the meaning of the underlined phrase "spill the beans"?________A. Keep a secret.B. Give a secret away.C. Make beans out.D. Give up the friendship..(2)The underlined pronoun " it " refers to________.A. secretB. troubleC. knowledgeD. drive.(3)The fifth paragraph mainly tells us________.A. Talkative people could let secrets slip out easilyB. It's a good idea to share your secrets with quiet peopleC. Quiet people can always keep everything insideD. It's possible that quiet people also talk about secrets.(4)Which of the following statements may be Shah's advice?________A. Tell secrets to a person close to you in order not to feel guilty.B. Put yourself in someone's position and decide whether to tell a secret.C. Don't let the person whose secret is given up by you know the truth.D. Share someone's secret with as many people as possible..(5)According to the passage,________.A. it can be hard to keep secrets because we will regret it laterB. people should never share secrets with othersC. if you let out your friends' secrets, you should be honest with your friends about itD. your friends may feel angry if you slip out their secrets.任务型阅读16.
