 One of the main challenges that many countries face is how to maintain their identity in the face of globalization and the growing multilanguage trend. "One of the main reasons for economic failure in many African countries is the fact that,with a few important excep?tions,mother tongue education is not practised in any of the independent African states."said Neville Alexander,director of the Project for the Study of Alternative Education in South Africa at the University of Cape Town.

In response to the spread of English and the increased multilanguage trends arising from immigration,many countries have introduced language laws in the last decade. In some,the use of languages other than the national language is banned in public spaces such as advertising posters. One of the first such legal provisions was the "Toubon Law" in France in 1994,and the idea has been copied in many coun?tries since then. Such efforts to govern language use are often considered as futile by language experts,who are well aware of the difficulty in controlling fashions in speech and know from research that language switching among bilinguaLs is a natu?ral process.

It is especially difficult for native speakers of English to understand the desire to maintain the "purity" of a language by law. Since the time of Shakespeare,Eng?lish has continually absorbed foreign words into its own language. English is one of the most mixed and rapidly changing languages in the world,but that has not been a barrier to acquiring superiority and power. Another reason for the failure of many native English speakers to understand the role of the state regulation is that it has never been the Anglo-Saxon way of doing things. English has never had a statecon?trolled authority for the language,similar,for example,to the Academic Francaise in France.

The need to protect national languages is,for most western Europeans,a re?cent phenomenon―especially the need to ensure that English does not necessarily take over too many fields. Public communication,education and new ways of communi?cation promoted by technology may be key fields to defend.

   B. Many aspects of national culture are threatened by the spread of English.

   C. Most language experts believe it is important to promote a national language.

A Seeing a volcano erupt is a wonderful experience,and you can really feel the heat by climbing to the summit of Pacaya for a closeup view. There are guided tours every?day up this highly active volcano from Antigua,giving travellers a chance to see Mother Nature at her most power.

Pacaya is an easy drive from Antigua,a beautiful city with many colourful houses along its old streets that are turned into artworks during its Holy Week festival. No matter when you come to Antigua,you won't miss the Pacayatour companies.

But climbing Pacaya is no easy job. It is 2 ,560 metres high,and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly one-step-forward and two-step-back move?ments. As you climb,you hear the dull sounds of erup?tions high above. Steaming,hot remains from recent eruptions begin to line the path as you near the active summit：the McKenney Cone (火山錐) .Just as though you were going to walk over to the edge of the cone,the road turns to the left and up to the relative safety of the old,inactive summit.

Many tours are timed so that you arrive at the cone of the volcano in plenty of time for sunset and the full contrast between the erupting red lava and the darkening sky. On a good day the view from the summit is extremely exciting. The active mouth boils,sending the red lava over its sides,and once in a while shoots hot streams up to 100 metres into the air. There is a strong bad smell in the air even if you take care to be upwind of the cone. As evening turns deeper into the night,the burning lava quietly falls down the side of the vo卜cano. For you,too,it is time to get down.

16. What is the main purpose of this passage?

   A. To attract tourists to Pacaya.

   B. To describe the beauty of Pacaya.

   C. To introduce guided tours to Pacaya.

   D. To explain the power of nature at Pacaya.

17. Antigua is a city         .

   A. where people can enjoy cultural festivals

   B. where the daring Pacaya tour starts

   C. that gives a closeup view of Pacaya

   D. that is famous for its tour companies

18. Climbing to the McKenney Cone,people will         .

   A. walk directly to the active summit

   B. hear the continuous loud noise from above

   C. make greater efforts than to other summits

   D. see a path lined with remains of earlier eruptions

19. Many tours are timed for people to         .

   A. get down the mountain in time when night falls

   B. avoid the smell from the upwind direction of the cone

   C. enjoy the fantastic eruption against the darkening sky

   D. appreciate the scenery of the 2 ,560-metre-high mountain

 Today's American high school students are far likelier than those in the 1970s to believe they're much more likely to claim they are " straight A” students with high IQs— even though other research shows that today's students do less homework than those in the 1970s. The findings sup?port the idea that the " selfesteem" movement popular among today's parents and teachers may have gone too far.

"What this shows is that confidence has crossed over into overconfidence”，said Jean Twenge,a professor. Twenge stressed that youthful confidence isn't necessarily bad. " Young people have always had some degree of dreamy optimism,and that's probably a good thing. And setting goals for yourself is a good thing. It's just when those goals are wildly unrealistic,then that can cause trouble for everyone."

For example,young people entering the workforce may score well in job interviews if they show selfconfi?dence,but that can quickly sour if a new employer doesn't provide them with the promotions they feel they deserve. "They don't set the right goals for themselves,because they are overconfident―and that's when it blows up in their faces”，Twenge said.

The blame for all this may lie with wellintentioned adults. " These kids didn't raise themselves;they got these ideas from somewhere," Twenge said. With parents handing out endless praise,kids today readily believe they are somehow superior,she said. And teachers aren't blameless,either: high school teachers now give out an "A" grade more easily than those in the 1970s,even though today's high school students report doing less homework than students from that period.

Not everyone interpreted the new findings in the same way,however. Jennifer Crocker is a professor of psychol?ogy. Based on available academic data,today's young Americans might be right to be more selfconfident. "The fact is that we are all getting smarter―IQ is going up quite dramatically over this same period of time," Crocker noted. "Students may believe that they are getting trained better than they used to,and that they are learning skills that they didn't use to have."

23. Why does Twenge worry about overconfident teenag?ers?

   A. Because they don't do homework any more.

   B. Because the real world doesn't always meet their expectations.

   C. Because their parents don't support the " selfesteem" movement.

   D. Because their teachers expect the best performance from them.

24. What causes teenagers to have too much confidence in themselves?

   A. They were born confident in themselves.

   B. The students got the confidence from somewhere in the media.

   C. Their parents are constant to praise them for their performance.

   D. School teachers are reluctant to prize students with an "A" grade.

25. The underlined part "when it blows up in their faces" in Paragraph 3 may mean "       ”，

   A. when their goals seem more important

   B. when they encourage themselves at once

   C. when they give up their goals immediately

   D. when it suddenly goes wrong

26. Jennifer Crocker seems to think that         .

   A. it is reasonable for students to be selfconfident

   B. students are full of dreams about something unre?alistic

   C. the American students have higher TQs than those in other countries

   D. teenagers are too ready to believe they are some?how superior

iy China's first aircraft carrier began sea trials Wednesday,marking a milestone in the country's rapid military modernization and longterm strategy to challenge U. S. military su?premacy in Asia and project power far beyond Chinese shores.

The 300-meter-long carrier,based on an empty hull bought from Ukraine,sounded its horn three times as it ploughed through the morning fog around Dalian and headed out to sea,accord?ing to one witness writing on the military microblog of the staterun Xinhua News Agency.

The carrier,featuring its original skijump runway to launch fighters and a new engine and radar equipment,has been undergoing refurbishment (重新裝備) for the last decade in the north?eastern port.

Xinhua said the sea trials " would not take a long time”，without giving details of the exact duration or say what sort of tests would be carried out. " After returning from the sea trial,the aircraft carrier will continue refit and test work," it said.

The provincial Maritime Safety Authority said on its web site that all vessels will be barred (被禁止的) from entering a small section of sea off Dalian until 6 p. m. local time Aug. 14.

The launch had long been expected as final preparations of the vessel―which has yet to be named by China ― were visible from many points around Dalian and had been regularly photographed and documented online by amateur enthusiasts.

A Chinese company purchased the empty hull of a carrier called the Varyag from Ukraine in 1998 on the understanding that it would be used as a floating casino,but it was later towed (4& 曳) to Dalian via the Black Sea,the Mediterranean and the Straits of Malacca.

China officially acknowledged only last month that it was refurbishing the vessel,and tried to ease regional concerns by saying it would be used for "research,experiments and training" and would take a long time to become fully operational.

China is the only one of the five permanent members of the U. N.Security Council,which includes theU. S.，Britain,FranceandRussia,without an operational carrier.IndiaandThai?landhave a carrier each,whileJapanhas one that carries helicopters.
