With a thirst for a new challenge, I decided to begin my language journey and my only regret is that I didn’t start earlier. Since starting to learn, I have made good progress. The Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) is a test of Chinese language for non-native speakers. In July 2020, I passed my HSK3 exam with a score of 100 percent. I am now almost ready to start HSK5.
Learning to speak Chinese isn’t as insurmountable as I once thought. When I speak to native speakers in Chinese, they almost always understand me. I also find it not too difficult to remember characters and I am now even able to write over 400 characters. I find studying the language relaxing and worthwhile, particularly writing the characters. The thing I find most challenging is listening since native speakers talk at such a speed. I can’t always understand what’s been said, but my weekly online language exchanges help with this greatly.
Despite my progress, it has still been the challenge I desire and has taken a lot of hard work. Furthermore, there is a long way to go before I reach my goal of fluency. The key to progress is to be patient and persistent (坚持不懈的). The satisfaction that comes from simple things like ordering food in Chinese, buying things on the Internet or communicating with a taxi driver makes all the hard work worth it.
My biggest takeaway from learning Chinese is that it’s not only doable but can also be enjoyable. Learning Chinese not only helped me in day-to-day life, but deepened my cultural understanding of such a colorful and beautiful country. Considering where I am now, compared to two years ago, as long as I keep studying hard, I can image a time when I’ll be able to read famous Chinese novels not in English but in the original text. So, to all my non-Chinese friends, I always say “Don’t give up. Embrace (拥抱) the challenge.”
41.What is the author’s regret?
A.He had a new challenge. B.He decided to begin his language journey.
C.He didn’t start learning Chinese earlier D.He passed his HSK3 exam.
42.What does the underlined word “insurmountable” mean in paragraph 2?
A.Easy to upset. B.Possible to change.
C.Comfortable to study. D.Hard to overcome.
43.Which one is the most difficult for the author?
A.Writing characters. B.Taking part in HSK exams.
C.Listening to the native speaking. D.Speaking to a taxi driver.
44.Why does the author think learning Chinese is satisfying?
A.It can make the author proud. B.It makes the author know more Chinese.
C.It can be useful in daily life. D.It makes the author more competitive.
45.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Passing exams isn’t a piece of cake B.Learning Chinese isn’t unbeatable
C.Explore the historical and cultural country D.Deepen understanding of Chinese culture
C
As someone who’s been studying English for many years now, you might think you know the English language pretty well. But if you overheard a British person say, “A Billy left some bees and honey in my sherbet (冰冻果露) last night,” would you understand what they meant?
Probably not, but many native speakers may not know what this person was saying either.
The example above was a sentence that a London taxi driver might say to another member of his or her tribe. In plain English, the sentence would be, “A customer left some money in my cab last night.”
So, what exactly is meant by “tribe”?
A recent article on the BBC Culture website pointed out that nearly all of us are a part of a tribe. This is a group that defines (定义) who we are and even how we speak. And with each tribe comes its own “secret language”, as the BBC called it.
If you work in a certain industry—education, for example—you may use slang words (俚语) and acronyms (首字母缩略词) that only other people who work in that industry would understand. Or if you live in a certain city, you might use a slang word to describe a landmark in the city that only locals would understand.
These so-called secret languages each have their own fascinating history. In the US, for example, the underground “ballroom” (舞厅) tribe of 1970s and 80s New York City and its language were showcased in the 2018 FX show Pose.
These secret words don’t always stay within their tribes, however. Words from many tribes, especially musical cultures such as rap and hip-hop, often enter people’s everyday vocabulary. For example, the phrase “to have beef” — meaning “to be in a conflict” — was made popular by US rappers. Today, it’s widely used by native English speakers all over the world.
As BBC reporter Susie Dent wrote, “We are all surrounded by amazing secret languages, full of history and stories and in-jokes (内部笑话). And one thing is certain: our tribal conversations will never run out.”
46.The example at the beginning of the text is mainly used to _________.
A.explain the meaning of tribes
B.prove that English is hard to learn
C.teach readers how to communicate with London cab drivers
D.show how the languages of tribes are often difficult for outsiders to understand
47.What can we know about secret languages?
A.They mostly came from musical cultures.
B.They first started in New York City in the 1980s.
C.They have failed to become popular among young people.
D.Some words from them are popular in everyday conversation.
48.How did the phrase “to have beef” become popular in everyday vocabulary?
A.It was showcased in the 2018 FX show Pose.
B.It was employed by US rappers in their works.
C.It was created by a specific musical culture.
D.It was featured in a recent article on the BBC Culture website.
49.What is the main idea of the article?
A.The history and influence of secret languages in different tribes.
B.How slang and acronyms are used in different industries and cities.
C.The popularity of US rappers and their contribution to everyday vocabulary.
D.A showcase of the underground ball room tribe’s language in 2018 FX show Pose.
50.What is Dent’s attitude toward the future of secret languages?
A.Uninterested. B.Worried. C.Confident. D.Objective.
D

61.Dear Smith,
I am Li Jin, one of your students in Class 6. Having met many difficulties in learning English, I am writing this letter to ask for help.
To begin with, I don’t understand what my teacher says in class or the listening materials. Besides, there are so many new words in the texts that it is difficult for me to memorize. I can’t remember new words clearly and quickly. In addition, I can’t express my thoughts and feelings since I am poor not only at oral English but also at grammar. I wonder if you could help me improve my English.
I’d appreciate it if you can reply to me at your earliest convenience.
Yours,
Li Jin
