As China’s influence grows, many students in the US are working hard to learn Chinese. Parents and education experts in the US think Chinese speakers may have greater chances.
The number of schools that teach Chinese has grown. Ten years ago, only about 300 schools in the US had Chinese lessons. Today, about 1, 600 schools teach Chinese.
Lomond Elementary School (小学) in Ohio is one of them. Each week, all students in grades one through five have a one-hour Chinese class. They learn the language through songs, games and lots of talking.
“We’re trying to make students interested in the language” teacher James told Times For Kids. “We think it’s really important that all children receive these lessons,” he says. “We’d like to do even more.”
“Schools are looking to the future,” says Nancy, a US education expert. “China is becoming a really powerful country. Young people should not only know the language but understand the culture.” Students may not be thinking about the future, but they think learning Chinese language and culture is fun.
“We wish we could go to China one day.” said Karl and his classmate, Walt, from Miami.

This summer I attended my first music festival. Unlike most of the festival goers, we didn't buy tickets. Instead, we volunteered as festival stewards. We each worked 3 shifts—each shift was 8 hours long—in exchange for a free ticket to the festival.
Leeds Festival is a large music festival which takes place yearly at the end of August, and thousands of people attend it each year.
There were several different stages, each catering for a different music taste: rock, pop, alternative and dance. As well as the fantastic music on offer, there were also funfair rides, food outlets and a silent disco. I loved silent discos: everyone had a set of headphones with two channels and music was played through the headphones. As a result, people could dance and sing along to completely different song!
While we weren't working we were free to enjoy the festival. We saw a wide variety of artists across the weekend. I really enjoyed seeing Imagine Dragons, Vampire Weekend and, of course, Arctic Monkey.
We camped for five nights and it was freezing every night! However, we had a really nice campsite. I had a great time and would definitely be returning the next year!

In Canada and the United States people enjoy entertaining (请客) at home. They often invite friends over for a meal or just for coffee and conversation.
Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their homes:
“Would you like to come over for dinner this Saturday night?” “Hey, we’re having a party on Friday. Can you come?”
To reply to an invitation, either say thank you and accept or say you’re sorry and give an excuse. “Thanks, I’d love to. What time would you like me to come?” or “Oh, sorry. I have tickets for a movie.”
Sometimes, however, people say something like invitations but they are not real invitations. For example: “Please come over for a drink sometime.” “Why not get together for a party sometime?” “Why don’t you come over and see us sometime soon?”
They are really just polite ways of ending their talk. They are not real invitations because they don’t mention a certain time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To reply to expressions like these, people just say “Sure, that would be great!” or “OK. Yes, thanks.”
So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?

To reply to expressions like these, people just say ‘Sure, that would be great!’ or ‘OK. Yes, thanks.’”可知,有人邀请你吃饭但没有提到时间和日期。你最好回答“当然,那太好了”。故填that would be great。
【54题详解】
根据“They are really just polite ways of ending their talk. They are not real invitations because they don’t mention a certain time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly.”可知,西方人在日常对话中使用“不真实的邀请”,他们真正的意思是友好。故填friendly。
【55题详解】
根据“So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?”可知,所以记住,下次当你听到类似邀请的话时,你应该注意时间或日期。故填time or date。

Dear Linda,
You asked me what famous snacks there were in my country. Well, in my country, one of the most famous snacks tanghulu. Each different part of China has different tanghulu. It is usually made of haws, which are put together on a stick and covered with ice sugar. But there are more materials for tanghulu today in some places, such as strawberries, grapes and even little apples.
It is said that tanghulu ever saved the life of an emperor’s wife in the Song Dynasty. It was so delicious and healthy that many Chinese people like eating it. It is now seen as the bright symbols of happiness and reunion.

As China’s influence grows, many students in the US are working hard to learn Chinese. Parents and education experts in the US think Chinese speakers may have greater chances.
The number of schools that teach Chinese has grown. Ten years ago, only about 300 schools in the US had Chinese lessons. Today, about 1, 600 schools teach Chinese.
Lomond Elementary School (小学) in Ohio is one of them. Each week, all students in grades one through five have a one-hour Chinese class. They learn the language through songs, games and lots of talking.
“We’re trying to make students interested in the language,” teacher James told Times For Kids. “We think it’s really important that all children receive these lessons,” he says. “We’d like to do even more.”
“Schools are looking to the future,” says Nancy, a US education expert. “China is becoming a really powerful country. Young people should not only know the language but understand the culture.” Students may not be thinking about the future, but they think learning Chinese language and culture is fun.
“We wish we could go to China one day.” said Karl and his classmate, Walt, from Miami.
More than 40 million foreigners around the world are studying Chinese. About 50 000 people in the US are learning the language. Chinese has become the second most spoken foreign language in the US after Spanish.

4. We can learn from the passage that ________.

A. US Kids Learn Chinese B. Foreigners Study Chinese
C Learning Chinese Is Fun D. Chinese Speakers Have Greater Chances
This summer I attended my first music festival. Unlike most of the festival goers, we didn't buy tickets. Instead, we volunteered as festival stewards. We each worked 3 shifts—each shift was 8 hours long—in exchange for a free ticket to the festival.
Leeds Festival is a large music festival which takes place yearly at the end of August, and thousands of people attend it each year.
There were several different stages, each catering for a different music taste: rock, pop, alternative and dance. As well as the fantastic music on offer, there were also funfair rides, food outlets and a silent disco. I loved silent discos: everyone had a set of headphones with two channels and music was played through the headphones. As a result, people could dance and sing along to completely different song!
While we weren't working we were free to enjoy the festival. We saw a wide variety of artists across the weekend. I really enjoyed seeing Imagine Dragons, Vampire Weekend and, of course, Arctic Monkey.
We camped for five nights and it was freezing every night! However, we had a really nice campsite. I had a great time and would definitely be returning the next year!

In Canada and the United States people enjoy entertaining (请客) at home. They often invite friends over for a meal or just for coffee and conversation.
Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their homes:
“Would you like to come over for dinner this Saturday night?” “Hey, we’re having a party on Friday. Can you come?”
To reply to an invitation, either say thank you and accept or say you’re sorry and give an excuse. “Thanks, I’d love to. What time would you like me to come?” or “Oh, sorry. I have tickets for a movie.”
Sometimes, however, people say something like invitations but they are not real invitations. For example: “Please come over for a drink sometime.” “Why not get together for a party sometime?” “Why don’t you come over and see us sometime soon?”
They are really just polite ways of ending their talk. They are not real invitations because they don’t mention a certain time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To reply to expressions like these, people just say “Sure, that would be great!” or “OK. Yes, thanks.”
So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?
