Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
About 10 percent of public school students in the United States learn English as a second language.In some states,that number is much higher.About five million students in the country are considered English language learners,or ELLs.Such students are the fast-growing group in the US public schools.
The most commonly first spoken languages among ELLs in America are Spanish,Arabic,Chinese,Haitian Creole and Vietnamese.Speakers of those five languages make up 92 percent of all ELLs included in the report.
English language learners can choose one of several kinds of programs.There are some programs,in which students are mostly taught in their native language.And there are other programs,which offer students almost all classroom teaching in English.However,these kinds of programs do not always allow students to write and read in their native language.
There are also so-called bilingual programs.These programs offer teaching in two languages—English and another language.Research has shown that English language learners do best in bilingual programs,especially if the second language is their native language.
The lack of high-quality bilingual programs is clear.Nationally,about 83 percent of students complete their high school education.But the graduation rate (比率) among English language learners is far lower 65 percent.
School systems across the country sometimes look for bilingual educators internationally.But education experts say there are ways for states to find and train new teachers in their own areas.This spring,America came up with a list of “Grow Your Own” rules for schools and states to follow.It advised states to offer a series of ways for bilingual teachers.It also suggested training bilingual teachers in their own areas even if they do not have a college degree.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国公立学校中英语为非母语的英语学习者的现状:人数在增加,但是适合他们的双语项目比较少,双语老师也比较缺乏。学校一方面寻找国际化的老师,一方面试图将自己的老师培养成双语老师。

B
(2024·武汉高一检测)I met the last speaker of Naati on an empty stretch of beach on Malekula, an island in the South Pacific nation of Vanuatu.I told the man, Ariep, that I was in the country to study one of its native languages.When he learned I was a linguist(语言学家), he excitedly shared that he speaks Naati.
Ariep explained the relationship between Naati and the other languages of the area.With a mix of pride and sorrow, he showed that he is the last fluent speaker of Naati.Although a few of his family members have some knowledge of the language and make an effort to use it together, he fears that with his death, Naati will soon disappear.Naati's situation is not unique.Of the about 7,000 languages spoken on the planet today, 50% to 90% are considered endangered by the end of the century.
Languages are a very valuable source of culture.Understanding different languages is vital to understanding human cognition(认知).A world with diverse(多种多样的)languages benefits us all.Each language is a piece of the puzzle that we need in order to determine how language works in the mind.With each missing piece, we are further from seeing the full picture.
There are enough commonalities(共性)among language systems.In terms of sentence structure, all languages use the three basic elements: subject, object, and verb.Although these can be ordered in different ways, about 80% of known languages put the subject first, while only about 1% put the object first.Understanding these patterns has real effects on our lives.The more we understand about how language functions, the better equipped we are to improve our therapies(疗法) for communication disorders and our methods for language teaching.
However, taking into consideration all languages is a huge challenge.Many languages are in danger of disappearing before they have been documented, taking with them irreplaceable information about human culture.For the sake of the speakers of endangered languages, for the sake of us all, we must protect the world's languages as we search for answers and work to ensure language diversity for generations to come.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了作为一名语言学家的作者与最后一个能够流利说Naati语的人的偶遇经历,引出了本文讲述的主要话题:当今世界上50%到90%的语言有处于灭绝的危险中。同时还阐述了语言多样性的重要性以及语言灭绝对世界文化的影响。
5.What do we know about Ariep?
A.He looks forward to leaving Malekula.
B.He speaks many foreign languages fluently.
C.He is worried about the disappearance of Naati.
D.He is addicted to studying endangered languages.
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段第二、三句(掺杂着骄傲和悲伤,他表明他是最后一个流利说Naati语的人。尽管他的一些家庭成员对这种语言有所了解,并努力一起使用它,但他担心随着他的去世,Naati语很快就会消失)可知,Ariep对自己是一个能够流利地说Naati语的人又自豪又伤感,还担心自己去世后,Naati语会消失。由此推知,Ariep很担心Naati语会消失。故选C。
答案 C
6.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.Ways to break down language gaps.
B.The significance of language diversity.
C.Reasons for the disappearance of languages.
D.The effect of human cognition on languages.
解析 段落大意题。根据第三段中的“Languages are a very valuable source of culture.Understanding different languages is vital to understanding human cognition.A world with diverse languages benefits us all.(语言是一种非常宝贵的文化来源。理解不同的语言对于理解人类认知至关重要。 一个拥有多种语言的世界对我们所有人都有好处。)”并结合下文讲述的内容可知,语言多样性对理解人类的认知很重要,一个拥有多种语言的世界有利于所有人。由此可知,本段主要讲述的是语言多样性的意义。故选B。
答案 B
7.Why does the author mention sentence structure in paragraph 4?
A.To show the difficulty of learning grammar.
B.To present the functions of language systems.
C.To explain the methods of language teaching.
D.To prove the connection among different languages.
解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“There are enough commonalities among language systems.In terms of sentence structure, all languages use the three basic elements: subject, object, and verb.(语言体系之间有足够的共性。在句子结构方面,所有语言都使用三个基本元素:主语、宾语和动词。)”可知,在各种语言体系中存在着足够的共性。由此推知,提到句子结构是为了证明不同的语言体系有很多共性。故选D。
答案 D
8.What is the best title of the text?
A.How Do Native Languages Develop?
B.Why Are Languages Worth Protecting?
C.How Can We Protect Endangered Languages?
D.What Makes Naati Unique in Human Language?
解析 标题归纳题。根据最后一段最后一句(为了濒危语言的使用者,为了我们所有人,我们必须保护世界语言,因为我们在寻找答案并努力确保子孙后代的语言多样性)并结合上文中讲述的语言多样性的重要性可知,既然语言多样性意义重大,保护世界语言有益于世人,那么我们就要保护语言。由此可知,Why Are Languages Worth Protecting?(为什么语言值得保护?)适合作为本文最佳标题。故选B。
答案 B
Ⅱ.完形填空
