As an English,I can speak three languages—English,German and French,so do you think the British people are very good language learners?The fact is that they aren’t.
Some statistics(數(shù)據(jù)) from the survey done by the European Commission(歐盟委員會) showed that 62% of the British people only speak English.38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more.Compared with the British people,56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more.From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.
And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language.Many European people can have a conversation in English.That’s why my people don’t think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.
In Britain,students are not required to learn a foreign language.That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school.In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14.So why don’t students continue learning foreign languages at school?Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.
To solve this situation,the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school.One way is to start learning it at a much younger age.Another one is to give school children more choices.
Changing the British attitude(態(tài)度) to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try!

Long,long ago people made fires from lightning(閃電).But they had to keep the fire burning,for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightning.Later,they found out hitting two pieces of stone together could make a spark(火花).The spark could fire dry leaves.In this way they could make the fire again if it went out.Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing(摩擦).They made a hole on a piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole.They turned the stick again and again.After a few minutes they got a fire.
As years went by,people learned other ways to make a fire.Sometimes they used the heat from the sun.They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.
About two centuries ago,people began to make matches.Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fires.Today matches are still being used,but people have more new ways to make fires.One of them is to use an electric fire starter.Of course an electric fire starter is much more expensive than a box of matches.But it is very useful.

Recently the “China Dream” has been the subject of a public topic.Although it is quite common for Chinese people to dream of an empowered(強(qiáng)大的) or a prosperous(繁榮) China,most people also have their own dreams.Throughout China’s thousands of years of history,these “China Dreams” have always existed.Do you have a “China Dream”?I brought up this topic with several young Chinese students with higher US educational backgrounds.Unsurprisingly,they all had their own heartfelt hopes and dreams for their native country.
Fred Wang,an MBA candidate in the US said,“I dream of equal chance for the young in China.Equality means all young people can compete fairly,based on the rule-of-law no matter whether they are rich or poor.”
Yujie Zhao,another MBA candidate in California said,“I dream of a happy family with an affordable home.I dream of having the best education for my children so they will not lose at the starting line,and I dream of being able to take good care of my parents after they retire(退休).” She said,“It seems like all my dreams are about family,but it is so true for most Chinese young dreamers today.”
Yiqiong Zhang,an MBA graduate from the US shared her dreams.“I have a dream which I have been holding for many years—that is after working hard for about 20 to 25 years,I can have enough money to build and manage a small bookstore or a flower shop.Besides working hard,I am able to enjoy life:to play the piano,to hike and to enjoy a two-month-long vacation every year.This may be a common dream among young Chinese students.”
There is no doubt that all of these young students have their own “China Dream”.They all love China,and they all love chasing their dreams.Beautiful “China Dream” requires hard work.Everyone should work hard to make their dream come true.
1.Which is TRUE about the three young Chinese students?
A.They receive higher education in China.
B.They have their own hopes and dreams for China.
C.They have their own hopes and dreams for America.

B.she can have a happy family with a big house

A.Working hard for about 20 to 25 years.
B.Managing a small bookstore or a flower shop.
C.Playing the piano and hiking in her free time.

It seems more and more Americans want schools to teach foreign languages to children younger than five years old.The most popular way to teach these young children another language is called immersion.
Children in immersion programs hear only the new language in the classroom.The children play games,sing songs and talk to one another in the new language.Some experts say immersion programs are the most effective way for young children to learn a language.But there can be a problem when children in the United States begin to learn another language at such an early age.Not many elementary schools continue to teach a foreign language.Only seven of the fifty states require schools to teach a foreign language to students between the ages of six and twelve.Language experts say it is easier for younger children to learn a language.Still,American schools generally do not begin to teach foreign languages until secondary schools.By then,students are about thirteen years old.
American schools face difficult choices about the cost of educational programs.The government has increased support for foreign language study in its education law called No Child Left Behind.
At the college,the Modern Language Association says more students than ever are studying foreign languages and more languages are being studied now than in the past.Spanish is the most widely taught in American colleges and universities.French,German,Chinese and Italian are also popular.

Dragons are not real animals,but look like a combination(結(jié)合體)of many animals such as snakes,fish and deer.They have two horns(角)and a long moustache.With fantastic powers,they fly in the sky or swim in the sea.They can make rain,too.The Chinese dragon is a symbol of strength and good luck.The emperors of ancient China loved dragons.Their clothes were covered with pictures of dragons.

London
London’s flood defences are getting older.
Since 1982,the Thames Barrier (泰晤士河水閘) has protected the city from the threat of flooding,but it is only designed to last to 2030 and is closed once every two or three years.According to Environment Agency (英國環(huán)境局) predictions,by 2050 the barrier will be closed on almost every tide if the problem is not solved.
There are 26 underground stations,400 schools,16 hospitals,an airport and 80 billion worth of property in London’s flood risk area,so large-scale flooding would be disastrous.
Paris
Over a six-week period in July and August 2003,more than 11,400—mainly elderly people—died in France from dehydration(脫水) and excessively high body temperature in a strong heat wave.
Heat waves of similar intensity(強(qiáng)度) are expected every seven years by 2050,so what can be done to make sure such a disaster does not happen again?
In Paris,the local authorities are encouraging architects to design new types of buildings such as the building “Flower Tower”,which uses a covering of bamboo to act as a natural air-conditioner.
Shanghai
Shanghai is the fastest-growing city in the world.It has a population of 24 million and is only 4 meters above sea level.Sea levels are predicted to rise by 20cm within the next century.
China relies heavily on coal-fired power stations,but these emissions increase temperatures and,in turn,warmer seas increase the risk of typhoons.
