2、ther.Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago,when the world had just five to ten million people,they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards,many of those people started settling down to become farmers,and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number.In

5、nly around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200,of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800.The median number(中位數(shù)) of speakers is a mere 6,000,which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already
6、well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡),with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick,at random,Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers),Chiapaneco in Mexico(150),Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia(one,with a question-mark):none
7、of these seems to have much chance of survival.【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是說明文。在依靠狩獵和采集生活的時(shí)代,語種眾多。但是隨著工業(yè)化、貿(mào)易、全球化等的發(fā)展,許多語種消失了。1.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.答案B解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中的“W

10、about 6,800 languages”和最后一句中的“is a mere 6,000,which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that”可知,B項(xiàng)正確。4.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.Peoples lifestyles are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.G
11、eography determines language evolution.答案C解析主旨大意題。通讀全文可知,在依靠狩獵和采集生活的時(shí)代,語種眾多。但是隨著工業(yè)化、貿(mào)易、全球化等的發(fā)展,許多語種消失了。由此可知,人類的發(fā)展導(dǎo)致了語種的減少,所以選C項(xiàng)。BJosh Ferrin picked up the keys to their new house in Salt Lake City earlier this week.He was excited to finally have a place his family could call their own.As he walked i
