16、tstanding teens. D. They offer various study guidance. (B)Taktak tabulaba? You probably dont know how to answer that question-unless you happen to be one of the about 430 people in the world who speak a language called Matukar Panau. Then you would know it means “What are we doing?” Matukar Panau is
17、 one of the worlds rarest languages. It is spoken in just two small coastal villages in Papua New Guinea. Several years ago, David Harrison, a language expert didnt know much about Matukar Panau either. No one had ever recorded or even studied its words and rules. With so few speakers, the language
18、risked disappearing soon. It was endangered. Harrison didnt want that to happen to Matukar Panau. So in 2009, he set out for Papua New Guinea. His goal: use modern technology to help the remaining speakers preserve their native tongue. But Matukar Panau is far from the only language facing loss. Stu
19、dies suggest that by the end of this century, nearly half of the 7,000 languages now spoken worldwide could disappear. Theyre in danger partly because the only people left speaking them are elderly adults, Harrison says. When those individuals die, their language will die with them. In addition, chi
20、ldren may discard a native language and instead use more common global languages, such as Chinese, English or Spanish. In the United States alone, 134 native American languages are endangered. Harrison says, “language hotspots” exist all over the world. These are places with endangered languages tha
21、t havent been recorded. They include the state of Oklahoma, pockets of central and eastern Siberia, parts of northern Australia and communities in South America.24. The purpose of using the question “Taktak tabulaba?” is to _. A. introduce a new foreign language B. introduce the topic of the text C.
22、 show the difficulty understanding Matukar Panau D. stress the importance of Matukar Panau25. The underline word “discard” in Paragraph 4 means _. A. get rid of B. pick up C. hear of D. learn about26. The last two paragraphs imply that endangered languages are _. A. dying quickly in Siberia B. popul
23、ar in some special places C. becoming a worldwide problem D. some native tongues (C)Friday and Saturday were full of surprises for Chinese, as two places in China were listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites. The first, a World Natural Heritage, is composed of a series of migratory bird sanctuaries(候鸟
24、保护地)along the coast of the Yellow Sea in Yancheng, East Chinas Jiangsu Province. The second, the Liangzhu Archaeological Site in Hangzhou, East Chinas Zhejiang Province, was listed as a World Cultural Heritage site.China began the application process for the bird sanctuaries in 2017. It only took tw
25、o years to successfully complete the process. The reason the migratory bird sanctuary application was successful is because of the special geographical category of the area. It is the largest intertidal mudflat seashore in the world. The success of this application marks the beginning of Chinas worl
26、d natural heritage from land to sea. The migratory bird sanctuaries are the central node of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway and many endangered species, especially threatened migratory birds including red- crowned cranes and flamingos, go there to hunt for food during the migration season. The bi
27、rds usually take a month to finish their migration. At about 10 days into their migration, they must stop and find food in order to have the energy to continue their journey.Compared to the short turnaround for the World Natural Heritages application, the Liangzhu application was far more complicate
28、d. The application team spent six years making their dream a reality. A lot of archaeological work had to be carried out for the Liangzhu site, which means the application and assessment(评定)process takes a longer time. The site in Liangzhu is evidence of the existence of an early regional state in t
29、he lower reaches of the Yangtze River during the late Neolithic period in China, which helps fill in the gaps in the history of the rice-cultivating civilizations of China and East Asia more than 5000 years ago. The site was one of the 20th centurys most important archaeological discoveries in China
30、.With these two new additions, China now has 55 World Heritage sites, the highest number in the world. The successful application means greater responsibility and obligations(义务). Protecting these places is much more important and is our future work. The new status of the migratory bird sanctuaries
31、might boost local tourism industries but this too poses a challenge as local governments will need to control tourist volume so as not to impact the birds migration patterns. Meanwhile, the sheer area that the Liangzhu Archaeological Site covers, some 14.3 square kilometers, makes protection a diffi
32、cult issue to handle. Those workings at the site are busy constructing protective shelters for the site and even reburying certain areas to protect them from exposure. Plans are also underway to build a local museum for the storage and display of artifacts, so visitors can come and learn more about
33、the history of the nation.27. What is special about the migratory bird sanctuaries?A. Its the first Chinas world natural heritage on the sea.B. It provides safe habitats for endangered species.C. Its located along the coast of the Yellow River.D. It supplies abundant fresh water to migratory birds.2
34、8. According to Paragraph 2, how do migratory bird sanctuaries protect birds?A. By creating warm places to produce baby birds.B. By preventing them from being killed by hunters.C. By providing food supplies during their migration.D. By curing the endangered birds after their journey.29. Why is Liang
35、zhu chosen for the world heritage site?A. It shows the long history of China.B. It proves the wisdom of the people.C. It witnesses the civilization of an age.D. It reveals the food of the late Neolithic.30. What is the last paragraph mainly talking about?A. The application successs promotion of tour
36、ism.B. Chinese responsibilities after the successful application.C. The two places influence on Chinese history.D. Chinese challenge of protecting birds migration.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡将该项 凃黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A Finnish cartoon Matti, a socially awkward stickman has beco
