Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg recently surprised Chinese students when he spoke to them in Chinese In a speech at Tsinghua University in Beijing, Zuckerberg spoke Chinese for about 30 minutes With Chinese having the most native speakers in the world and the study of the Chinese language increasing rapidly around the world, Zuckerberg’s talk raises a question: Is Chinese the language of the future Could it replace English as the world’s international language
Chinese will grow in importance, especially for people who want to work and do business in
China But I don’t think Chinese will replace English any time soon
American movies, music, television, video games have wider audiences, which is one reason for English’s popularity as a foreign language So far China’s success in this aspect has been very limited Chinese films, Chinese television shows and Chinese music don’t have a huge following outside of China In addition, English is seen as a more neutral(中立的) language than Chinese Unlike Chinese, English is not associated with one county It is a universal language and is spoken in more than 170 counties In 2014, China hosted the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meeting in Beijing, China But the meeting was not in Chinese The official language of APEC is English
The most important reason is that Chinese is a more difficult language to learn It is estimated that it would take a native English speaker 2,000 hours to reach professional fluency in Chinese That is four times longer than it would take to reach the same level in Dutch, French, or Spanish While Chinese grammar is much simpler, Chinese has a tone and writing system that is more difficult for adult learners to master
Last but not least, more people learn English than Chinese A recent survey by Gallup showed that only one in four Americans is multilingual, which means only 25% of Americans can speak a foreign language besides English For most Americans, learning a foreign language is a choice, not a necessity China Daily has estimates that 400 million Chinese are studying English That means China has more English learners that the US has English speakers
33 Mark Zuckerberg surprised Chinese students by __________
A singing Chinese songs B wearing Chinese clothes
C making a speech in Chinese D speaking highly of Chinese
34Which of the following contributes to English’s popularity as a foreign language
A American growing economy B American pop culture
C American freedom of speech D American education system
35 What is the text mainly about
A The results pop culture development brings about
B The influence English has on the global economy
C The suggestions on how to master Chinese in a short time
D The reasons why English would be more popular than Chinese

In choosing a friend, one should be very careful A good friend can help you study You can have fun together and make each other happy Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away How do I know when I have found a good friend I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠)
A good friend, above all else, tries to understand how another person is feeling He is not quick to judge Instead, he tries to learn from others He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful He is also a good listener
At the same time, a good friend is honest He does not look for faults in others He notices their good points In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me
Another quality of a friend is reliability I can always depend on a good friend If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me

What makes a person a scientist Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others The answer is “no” It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how to discover information, is important to everyone The scientist, however, goes one step further, he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works
The scientist’s knowledge must be exact There is no room for half right or right just half the time He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions This is one reason that investigations are important in science Albert Einstein, who developed the Theory of Relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations, and Einstein’s ideas were shown to be correct A scientist uses many tools for measurements Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations

翻译:当我想起那个最佳运动员居然错过了传球的场景时,我仍然无法相信自己的眼睛。
解释:
1 从句意来看,___ the best player should miss the pass为定语从句,修饰先行词the scene
很明显,该定语从句中缺少地点状语in the scene,所以只有答案C where为正解。
2 推理如下:
(where) the best player should miss the pass

= (in which) the best player should miss the pass
= (in the scene) the best player should miss the pass
= the best player should miss the pass (in the scene)
inscene 为固定搭配,意思是“在场景中”。
