32、payment DToday, several of the worlds nearly 7,000 languages face a serious risk of extinction. For example, Ainu, a language in Japan, is now seriously threatened, with only 10 native speakers left, said lead study author Tatsuya Amano at the University of Cambridge in England.The scientists found
33、that 25 percent of the worlds languages are threatened. After identifying where the endangered languages were, they looked for any environmental and social or economic factors those languages might have in common, such as rugged terrain or rapid population growth. We found that at the global scale,
34、language speaker declines are strongly linked to economic growth-that is, declines are particularly occurring in economically developed regions, Amano said.One important implication of this new study is that languages in the tropics and Himalayan region are likely to be increasingly threatened in th
35、e near future, because these regions still have many local indigenous languages (土语) with a small number of speakers, and at the same time are experiencing rapid economic growth, Amano said.Economic growth may endanger languages for a variety of reasons. For instance, speakers of endangered language
36、s may view another more dominant language as offering economic opportunities, and thus forego their own languages. There are other important factors that might endanger languages, the researchers said. For instance, policies regarding how languages are used and taught in schools can be very differen
37、t among countries and even within each country, and these factors may explain more detailed patterns in language endangerment.Amano suggested it could be possible to forecast future threats to linguistic diversity. There exists detailed information on projected future changes in the environment, eco
38、nomies and climates, Amano said. Using such information, together with the findings of this study and further analysis, we would like to understand what will happen to the worlds languages, where it will happen and which languages will be threatened in particular.32. The language of Ainu is mentione
39、d in Paragraph l in order to tell us that _.A. Japanese is new seriously threatenedB. few people speak Japanese in the worldC. Japanese is made up of many languagesD. it is most likely to disappear in the future 33. What may endanger the languages most according to Amano?A. The diversity of society.
40、B. The decline of the population.C. The development of economyD. The improvement of the environment.34. The writer shows us the reasons that languages are endangered by _.A. offering some examplesB. performing some experiments .C. telling some interesting storiesD. making a list of important facts .
41、35. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _.A. the study is very important to languagesB. worlds languages are developing rapidlyC. it is rather hard for us to protect languagesD. future threats to languages can be predicted第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据下面短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Th
42、e MississippiThe Mississippi is a great river whose relationship with man goes way back beyond its discovery in the 16th century. The River Indians used it as a highway and as a source of food, and it was they who gave it its name “misi” meaning “great” and “sipi” meaning “water”. When the length of
43、 its branch, the Missouri, is added to it, the Mississippi becomes greater. 36 . From the source of the Missouri to the tip of the delta (三角洲), it is 2, 480 miles long.
