For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding
20、letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a pencil.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage: Prior to the 20th century, many languages with small numbers of speakers survived for centuries. The increasingly interconnected modern world makes it much more difficult for small language communities to
21、 live in relative isolation, a key factor in language maintenance and preservation. It remains to be seen whether the world can maintain its linguistic and cultural diversity in the centuries ahead. Many powerful forces appear to work against it :population growth, which pushes migrant populations i
22、nto the worlds last isolated locations; mass tourism; global telecommunications and mass media; and the spread of gigantic global corporations. All of these forces appear to signify a future in which the language of advertising, popular culture, and consumer products become similar. Already English
23、and a few other major tongues have emerged as global languages of commerce and communication. For many of the worlds peoples, learning one of these languages is viewed as the key to education, economic opportunity, and a better way of life. Only about 3,000 languages now in use are expected to survi
24、ve the coming century. Are most of the rest doomed in the century after that? Whether most of these languages survive will probably depend on how strongly cultural groups wish to keep their identity alive through a native language. To do so will require an emphasis on bilingualism(mastery of two lan
25、guages). Bilingual speakers could use their own language in smaller spheres-at home, among friends, in community settings-and a global language at work, in dealings with government, and in commercial spheres. In this way, many small languages could sustain their cultural and linguistic integrity alo
26、ngside global languages, rather than yield to the homogenizing(同化的)forces of globalization. Ironically, the trend of technological innovation that has threatened minority languages could also help save them. For example, some experts predict that computer software translation tools will one day perm
27、it minority language speakers to browse the Internet using their native tongues. Linguists are currently using computeraided learning tools to teach a variety of threatened languages.For many endangered languages, the line between revival and death is extremely thin. Language is remarkably resilient
28、(有活力的),however. It is not just a tool for communicating, but also a powerful way of separating different groups, or of demonstrating group identity. Many indigenous(原生的,土著的)communities have shown that it is possible to live in the modern world while reclaiming their unique identities through languag
29、e.41.Minority languages can be best preserved in _. Aan increasingly interconnected world Bmaintaining small numbers of speakers Crelatively isolated language communities Dfollowing the tradition of the 20th century42.According to Paragraph 2, that the world can maintain its linguistic diversity in
30、the future is _. Auncertain Bunrealistic Cforeseeable Ddefinite43.According to the author, bilingualism can help_. Asmall languages become acceptable in work places Bhomogenize the worlds languages and cultures Cglobal languages reach home and community settings Dspeakers maintain their linguistic a

Aremarkably well-kept in this modern world Bexceptionally powerful tools of communication Cquite possible to be revived instead of dying out Da unique way of bringing different groups togetherQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the followin
33、g passage: Everyone,it seems,has a health problem。After pouring billions into the National Health Service,British people moan about dirty hospitals,long waits and wasted money. In Germany the new chancellor, Angela Merkel, is under fire for suggesting changing the financing of its health system. Can
34、adas new Conservative Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, made a big fuss during the election about reducing the countrys lengthy medical queues. Across the rich world, affluence, ageing and advancing technology are driving up health spending faster than income. But nowhere has a bigger health problem t
35、han America. Soaring medical bills are squeezing wages, swelling the ranks of the uninsured and pushing huge firms and perhaps even the government towards bankruptcy. Fords announcement this week that it would cut up to 30.000 jobs by 2023 was as much a sign of its“legacy ” health care costs as of t
36、he ills of the car industry. Pushed by polls that show health care is one of his main domestic problems and by forecasts showing that the retiring baby-boomers (生育高峰期出生的人) will crush the governments finances, George Bush is to unveil a reform ;plan in next weeks state-of the union address. Americas
37、health system is unlike any other. The Unite States spends 16% of its GDP on health, around twice the rich-country average, equivalent to $6,280 for every American each year. Yet it is the only rich country that does not guarantee universal health coverage. Thanks to an accident of history, most Ame
38、ricans receive health insurance through their employer, with the government picking up the bill for the poor and the elderly. This curious hybrid(混合物) certainly has its strengths. Americans have more choice than anybody else, and their health-care system is much more innovative. Europeans bills coul
39、d be much higher if American medicine were not doing much of their Research and Development(R&D)for them. But there are also huge weaknesses. The one most often citedespecially by foreignersis the army of uninsured. Some 46 million Americans do not have cover. In many cases that is out of choice and
40、 ,if they fall seriously ill, hospitals have to treat them. But it is still deeply unequal. And there are also shocking inefficiencies: by some measures,30% of American health spending is wasted. Then there is the question of state support. Many Americans disapprove of the “socialized medicine” of C
41、anada and Europe. In fact, even if much of the administration is done privately, around 60% of Americas heath-care bill ends up being met by the government. Proportionately, the American state already spends as much on health as the OECD(Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development)average,
42、and that share is set to grow as the baby-boomers run up their Medicare bills and ever more employers avoid providing health-care coverage. America is , in effect, heading towards a version of socialized medicine by default. 46.Health problems mentioned in the passage include all the following EXCEPT_. A. poor hospital conditions in U.K. B. Angela Merkel under attack C. health financing in Germany D. long waiting lines in Canada 47.Fords announcement of cutting up to 30,000 jobs by 2023 indicates that Ford_. A. has th
