Passage 10(2013 广东,B)
A four-year-old girl is lying in the arms of a doctor.She has just lost her mother. Her pink clothes are full of blood and her eyes look at something only she can see.
Every day we see pictures like this on TV.We see Iraqi (伊拉克) children asking for food and water from American and British soldiers when they move through towns and cities towards the capital,Baghdad. We see these children following parents,carrying bags of almost the same as their small bodies when they escape from their homes in Baghdad.
They show just some of the young lives that have been turned upside down by ongoing war.
“Dad,why are the Americans fighting against us? Are we going to be killed?” asks the son of Abu,an Iraqi engineer. Abu finds it hard to explain (解释) this war to his eight-year-old son.
He tries to make him feel safe by saying ,“ The bombs (炸弹) are far away from us. The Americans are fighting the soldiers. We’re going to be all right." Even though Abu knows it isn’t always true,nothing else can be done. In Baghdad,parents give their children sleeping pills to try and let them escape from the sound of bombs.

Passage 17(2013 广州,C)
The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time,they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an Englishspeaking country.
Now the Vieira children are adults,and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries,they often leave their own customs and mother language behind.This is a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.
One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world.You do not have to depend on others to talk for you,so youVe more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.
Furthermore,speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions,vocabulary,and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person’s understanding of another culture.So,knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.
Finally,having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well,the world can become closer.Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each others problems.
The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact,there are no disadvantages.lt is very sad that many people don^ try to learn another language.lt is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silent.
1. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The benefits of learning other languages.
B. The reasons why people come to America.
C. The importance of learning English.
D. How to learn another language.
2. The passage begins with the experience of the Vieira family in order to .
A. discuss the need for teaching a new language
B. introduce the passage’s main characters to the readers
C. describe the advantages of moving to another country
D. show the problems of speaking only one language
3. The underlined phrase “ multi-language speakers” ( Paragraph 5) means “people who know .”
A. their mother language
B. a new language
C. more than one language
D. body language
4. According to the passage,if you can speak more than one language,you can .
A. find a better job
B. make more friends
C. better understand history
D. communicate more independently
5. Based on the last paragraph,which of the following is the worst?
A. Not knowing another language.
B. Forgetting one’s mother language.
C. Refusing to learn another language.
D. Failing to communicate with others.
