27、lace and on television. New research, supported by the National Geographic Society and the Living Tongues Institute for Endangered Languages, has found the five regions where languages are disappearing most rapidly. They are northern Australia, central South America, North Americas upper Pacific coa
28、stal zone, eastern Siberia, and Oklahoma and the southwestern United States.K. David Harrison, an associate professor of linguistics at Swarthmore College, US, said that more than half the languages had no written form and were vulnerable to loss and being forgotten. Their loss leaves no dictionary,
29、 no text, or no record of the accumulated knowledge and history of a disappeared culture. Harrison and other researchers started their rescue project last year. They have been trying to identify and record endangered languages. They interviewed and made recordings of the few remaining speakers of a
30、language and collected basic word lists. The individual projects, some lasting three to four years, involve hundreds of hours of recording speech, developing grammar and preparing childrens readers in the obscure (逐渐没落的) language.

36、re small.C. There are no dictionaries for the languages.D.

But different cultures have different ways of socializing.The Chinese love going to restaurants. Fam

So Chinese restaurants are much louder and noisier places compared with those in the Western world.Although British people do socialize by going out for dinner, most people meet in pubs. They go there in the evening and sometimes du
38、ring the day. Most people order wine or beer.Going for a drink with colleagues after work is a particularly important British tradition. A recent survey of office workers found three-quarters of people regard the after-work drink as the key to building positive relationships with colleagues.But for

58、evices are facing tough competition this year from another Christmas favorite.JIM BARRY: Another hot category right behind that are the e-readers.

At th
66、e meantime, many developing nations adopt family planning policy to get rid of poverty. All these facts result in a world with population growth rate declining. But I myself would like to grow up in a big family. Of course, a small family has its advantages. Firstly, small family makes it easier for
67、 parents to bring up and educate their children. Parents could spend more time and money educating one child than several. The child could grow up in an influential environment. Secondly, the child could learn more survival skills for future success. However, . The only child becomes the little empe
68、ror. It would make the one child ask more for him and think less of others. Besides, after the child grows up and gets married, the new couple has to take care of four old parents. That means the two children must work hard to support the old parents. At present, many nations are facing the problem
69、of becoming aged society. China will face this situation in a short time to come. On the contrary, a big family weighs over a small family in many aspects. Firstly, parents could educate several children with almost the same time as they spend with one. Moreover, the old brothers or sisters also cou
70、ld help their parents bring up little children. Secondly, if one of the children turns out to be successful, it may mean he or she is becoming a model for other children to learn from. Despite the fact that parents have to spend more time and money bringing up several children, it is not as difficul
71、t as people think it to be. With the help of good educational system and modern technology, it is becoming easier to afford several children.76.
