Senegal is an example of an African nation where students learn to read-not in a language they speak at home,but in French.Forcing children to learn in French could not actually be having a positive effect on their school performance.According to Education Center,the youth's ability to read and write is lower than the average for countries with similar economies.In addition,more than half of Senegal's secondary school-age children no longer attend school. Such concerns have led schools in some countries to begin teaching in local languages.But not everyone agrees with these efforts.Barbara Trudell,the director of an organization for language development,says that preferring local languages can be difficult to understand.That's because there might be more opportunities for speakers of international languages.Others have mixed feelings.Meissa Dieng,a school headmaster accepts the importance of international languages.But he's concerned about how well children adapt to the challenges of doing schoolwork in a language they do not speak at home.Chris Darby,an education expert says that parents often have strong views on teaching in international languages.But many of them finally support it."Parents are very eager,I think,for children to succeed,"said Darby. Many Organizations have been piloting two-language teaching programs in primary schools.In these programs,children learn to speak French and build learning skills in local language.The local language is later used as a base to learn and read in French.Program Director Awa Ka Dia hopes the good results will encourage the native governments to fund the programs,so they could cover more areas. 11.What does the underlined word "hamper"mean in paragraph 1? A.Harm B.Promote. C.Achieve. D.Confuse. 12.What might be the main reason for the students'quitting school in Senegal? A.Starting schooling too late B.Too much stress from parents. C.Unwillingness to read and write. D.Inabilities to learn in French. 13.What is Barbara Trudell's attitude to teaching in international languages? A.Supportive. B.Worried C.Unsupportive. D.Unclear. 14.What can be concluded from the last paragraph? A.Pupils find it difficult to learn French B.French helps to improve learning skills. C.The programs are considered promising. D.Local governments carry out the programs. 4 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余项。 There is something magical about exploring the great outdoors and hiking.Whether you're a sustaining or new hiker,hiking offers advantages for your body,mind and spirit.
