19、ummer Holidays22（8分） Experts say there are about 6，500 languages spoken throughout the world. But the United Nations guesses that about half of these languages are in danger of disappearing.One organization seeking to save world languages is Wikitongues. It has a simple goal: to provide the tools an

20、d support that people need to save their languages. When a language disappears, many other things can go away as well. For example, parts of a communitys(社區的)culture. knowledge and identity can also be lost.Because of this, Udell. co-founder of Wikitongues. believes the process of bringing languages

21、 hack must be done by community members themselves. he said. There is no way an outside organization can save someones language for them.”Wikitongues was started in 2016 as an open Internet collection of world languages. The self-described community is operated by volunteers from around the world. T

22、he collection is in the form of language videos that people speaking the languages add to the Wikitongues website.Udell says saving languages does count. There are many examples of languages that disappeared but later returned to use. Hebrew went extinct(滅絕的)in the 4th century BC, and was revived(復興

23、)in the 1800s. Now once again，its the mother tongue of half of the worlds Jewish population.”Another example is a Native American tribe. The tribes language went extinct in the 1940s. But the tribe was able to successfully build up a language recovery in recent years.One of Wikitongues volunteers is

24、 Theron Kolokwe. who lives in Namibia. His native language is Subiya. which is spoken by about 30.000 people.I want the world to know about my language,” Kolokwe said.

28、Worlds Dying Languages23（8分）Dear Students,I am delighted to be your guest.I would like to tell you about myself. I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons. The work is sometimes difficult

29、. I have seenfamines, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children. Some were as young as four years old. They lived in the streets and survived by begging or stealing. But then a wonderful l

30、ady called Rosa opened a home for them. Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children. She clothed them, fed them, and taught them. She gave them hope.Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake, in one place. I found an old lady whose house was in ruins, her son was miss

31、ing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive. But the old lady did not give up hope. For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself. She did not stop until she found her son. He was alive.Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious condition. He had und

32、ergone twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital. I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.In life, we need role models that we can admire and learn from.

35、d24（8分） Babies have an astonishing talent that adults entirely lose. By the age of one, they can recognise the significant noises around them and group them into a language. When we have lost this capacity as adults, it becomes enormously difficult to distinguish between sounds that are glaringly di

36、fferent to a native speaker. It all sounds Greek to us. This is because the range of possible sounds that humans use to convey meaning may be as high as 2,000, but few languages use more than 100 and even then the significant noisesthe phonemes (音素) of a languageeach cover a range of sounds and so v

37、ague distinctions which would change the meaning of a word in other languages.But where do these phonemes come from and why do they shift over time? New research suggests that the apparently arbitrary distribution of some sounds around the world may be partially explained by diet. This is unexpected

38、. Wed rather think of language as product of our thought, rather than of the arrangement of our teeth. In reality, though, any given language must be both.Hunter gatherer languages very seldom use the sounds known as labiodentals (唇齒音)those such as f and vthat are made by touching the lower lip with

39、 the upper teeth. Only two of the hundreds of Australian aboriginal languages use them, for example. But in cultures that have discovered farming, these consonants (輔音) are much more common. The argument goes that farmers eat more cooked food and more dairy than hunter gatherers. Either way, they ne

40、ed to chew mush less, and to bite less with their front teeth. So farmers grew up with smaller lower jaws and more of an overbite than their ancestors who had to bite through harder foods. It became easier for them to make the labiodental consonants instead of purely labial (唇音) ones: one example is

41、 that f come to take the place of p. Romans said “pater” but English speakers (unless theyre ReesMoggs) say “father”.Beyond these particular changes, the story highlights the way in which everything distinctively human is both material and spiritual: speech must combine sound and meaning, and the me

42、aning can t exist or be transmitted without a real object. But neither can it be reduced to the purely physical, as our inability to understand or even to recognise foreign languages makes clear. The food we eat shapes our jaws, and our jaws in turn shape the sounds of our language. The ease with wh

43、ich we eat probably shapes our thought too, as anyone who has suffered toothache could testify. What we eat may have shaped the sounds of our language, but how we eat changes how we feel and what we use language to express. A family meal is very different from a sandwich at the office desk, even if

44、the calorie is the same. Food has purposes and meanings far beyond keeping us alive and pleasing the Palate (味覺).1、Compared with adults, babies could more easily .Acreate significant noisesBclassify the forms of noisesCunderstand the Greek languageDdistinguish meaningful sounds2、According to the pas

The

47、 free app ChatterBaby, which was released last month, analyzes the acoustic (聲學的) features of a babys cry, to help parents understand whether their child might be hungry, fussy or in pain. While critics say caregivers should not rely too much on their smartphone, others say its a helpful tool for ne

48、w or tired parents.Ariana Anderson, a mother of four, developed the app. She originally designed the technology to help deaf parents better understand why their baby was upset, but soon realized it could be a helpful tool for all new parents.To build a database, Anderson and her team uploaded 2,000

49、audio samples of infant(嬰兒) cries. She used cries recorded during ear piercings and vaccinations to distinguish pain cries. And to create a baseline for the other two categories, a group of moms had to agree on whether the cry was either hungry or fussy.Andersons team continues to collect data and h

50、opes to make the app more accurate by asking parents to get specific about what certain sounds mean.Pediatrician Eric Ball pointed out that evaluating cries can never be an exact science. “I think that all of the apps and technology that new parents are using now can be helpful but need to be taken

51、seriously,” Ball said ,“ I do worry that some parents will get stuck in big data and turn their parenting into basically a spreadsheet(電子表格) which I think will take away the love and caring that parents are supposed to be providing for the children. ”But Anderson said the aim of the app is to have p

52、arents interpret the results, not to provide a yes or no answer. The Bells, a couple using this app, say its a win-win. They believe they are not only helping their baby now but potentially others in the future.1、How does the app judge what babies want?ABy collecting data.BBy recording all the sound

When watching commercials, we a

56、re “learning” that consumption makes us happy and that we need to buy everything. This really makes me 1 . So when I watch commercials I usually start thinking of other things, and dont hear a 2 . Recently, however, a commercial for a major retail (零售) store got my 3 . It gave me a deep impression,

57、and 4 me of the best things about Christmas.A young lady is talking over the phone to her family right before Christmas. She is obviously living away from her family and 5 them.

The holidays are a good time to 14 connections and renew relationships among family members. People can communicate with each other and 15 a sense of belonging. So once
