21、   Canada is a bilingual country with "co-official " languages. English and French enjoy equal status as the official languages of all government agencies in Canada. This means that the public has the right to communicate with and receive services from government in either English or French. Government employees have the right to work in the official language of their choice in certain bilingual regions.

Like the United States, Canada started as a colony. Beginning in the 1500s it was part of New France but later became a British colony after the Seven Years’  War. As a result, the Canadian government recognized the languages of both colonizers: France and England. The Constitution (宪法)Act of 1867 admitted the use of both languages in federal courts. Years later, Canada strengthened its commitment to bilingualism when it passed the Official Languages Act of 1969, which reconfirmed the constitutional origins of its co official languages.

Recognition of both English and French protects the rights of all Canadians. Among other benefits, the 1969 Act recognized the Canadian citizens should be able to access federal laws and government documents, whether their native language was French or English. The general law also requires that consumer products feature bilingual packaging throughout the country.

The Canadian government is committed to advancing the equality and the use of English and French and provides support to the development of English and French minority communities. However, the reality is that most Canadians speak English, and of course, many Canadians speak another language entirely.

Although the federal government theoretically guarantees bilingual services in all areas, there are many regions where English is the clear majority language so the government does not offer services in French in those regions. Canadians use the phrase "where numbers justify "to indicate whether a local populations language requires bilingual services from the government.

While many Canadians are bilingual in English and French, Statistics. Canada finds that over 200 other languages were reported as a language spoken by its people. About two-thirds of the respondents who spoke one of these languages also spoke either English or French

【1】Why are two official languages accepted in Canada?

A. The language-using tradition caused by Canada's colonial history

B. The theoretical commitment made by Canadian courts in the past

C. The welcome attitude towards people coming from all over the world

D. The mastery of two languages of Canadians because of school education

【2】What is the current situation of official languages in Canada?

A. People speaking English are superior because of their access to federal laws

B. Federal governments have to provide bilingual services to all citizens in Canada

C. French minority communities are given more support due to their language-using history

D. There are more people speaking English than French in some parts of Canada

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A. The legal court usage of French and English was established in Canada in 1969.

B. Some Canadians in certain districts might speak neither English nor French

C. Either French or English should be used on products in Canada according to the law

D. English has gained superior legal position to French because of bigger users in Canada

【4】Which is the best title of the passage?

A. The Official Languages in Canada   B. Canada, a Multiple-language Land

C. Balancing English and French in Canada   D. Advancing English and French in Canada

22、   When you are choosing a major in the future, will you place a higher value on its future career or on its personal interest to you? Zhong Fangrong, a left-behind girl from Hunan province who scored 676 points in total on this year's college entrance exam, preferred the latter as she applied to study archaeology at Peking University.

However, there was a heated debate concerning whether she had made a wise decision. Some netizens argued that she wouldn't have a promising future unless she chose a more popular major—for instance, finance, engineering, business, etc. —instead of archaeology. What's more, considering the financial burden on her family, she had better think twice before making her final decision.

The girl later responded that she had been inspired to pursue archeology by Fan Jinshi, president of Dunhuang Academy, and that she had developed a passion for history and cultural relics. She also added that she cared little about fame and fortune.

Zhong has increased my confidence because of her attitude towards life. Firstly, she knows clearly what she is really interested in and is determined to devote herself to it. Secondly, Zhong has been able to stick to her pursuit despite the criticism from society.

Zhong's pursuit reminds me of a lady who walks on a country road and lives in poetry—Li Ziqi. They both try their best to be who they want to be, which is rare and admirable nowadays.

Just ask yourself: Do you have the courage not to follow the pattern that the majority of people repeat? Actually, applying for an unpopular major may help you to avoid fierce competition. And the pursuit of a popular major is no guarantee for a brilliant future.

Following the example of Zhong, I will be more willing to follow my dreams in the years to come.

【1】What made Zhong decide to major in archaeology?

A.Her courage to take an adventure. B.Her optimistic attitude towards life.

C.Her stubborn belief in popular majors. D.Her love for history and cultural relics.

【2】Some netizens opposed Zhong's choice because they thought

A.she preferred finance to archaeology B.she wouldn't have a promising future

C.she placed value on her future career D.she cared much about fame and fortune

【3】What inspires the author to follow his or her dream in the future?

A.Li Ziqi's living in poetry. B.Netizens' heated argument.

C.Fan Jinshi's encouragement. D.Zhong's sticking to her pursuit.

【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A.You Can Be Who You Want To Be B.Archaeology Is Becoming Popular

C.A Left-behind Girl Scored 676 Points D.A Heated Debate Arose Among Netizens

23、   Shanghai residents passing through the city's eastern Huangpu district in October might have astonished at an unusual sight: a “walking” building. An 85-year-old primary school has been lifted off the ground and relocated using new technology named the “walking machine.”

In the city's latest effort to preserve historic structures, engineers attached nearly 200 mobile supports under the five-story building, according to Lan Wuji, chief technical supervisor (技术总监) of the project. The supports act like robotic legs. They're divided into two groups which alternately rise up and down, imitating the human pace. Attached sensors help control how the building moves forward, said Lan.

In recent decades, China's rapid modernization has seen many historic buildings razed to clear land for high-rise buildings. But there has been growing concern about the architectural heritage lost as a result of destruction across the country. Some cities have launched new preservation and conservation campaigns including, on occasion, the use of advanced technologies that allow old buildings to be relocated rather than destroyed.

Shanghai has possibly been China's most progressive city when it comes to heritage preservation. The survival of a number of 1930s buildings in the famous Bund district and 19th-century “Shikumen” houses in the rebuilt Xintiandi neighborhood have offered examples of how to give old buildings new life. The city also has a satisfying record of relocating old buildings. In 2018, the city relocated a 90-year-old building in Hongkou district, in what was then considered to be Shanghai's most complex relocation project to date.

The Lagena Primary School, which weighs 7,600 tons, posed a new challenge-it's T-shaped, while previously relocated structures were square or four-sided. Experts met to discuss possibilities and test a number of different technologies before deciding on the “walking machine”, Lan said. However, he couldn't share the exact cost of the project, and that relocation costs will differ case by case. “It can't be used as a reference, because we have to preserve the historical building no matter what,” he said. “But in general, it's cheaper than destroying and then rebuilding something in a new location.”

【1】How does the “walking” machine work?

A.It uses hundreds of ropes to lift up the entire building.

B.It uses many wheels to roll the building to the new place.

C.It lifts off the building story by story with the robotic legs.

D.It uses sensors to control the movement of mobile supports.

【2】What does the underlined word “razed” probably mean in Paragraph 3?

A.replaced B.burnt C.protected D.destroyed

【3】According to paragraph 3-4, what can we infer about the heritage preservation in China?

A.The use of advanced technology leads to growing concern.

B.Shanghai is the pioneer in preserving architectural heritage.

C.The local government has already taken action since the 1930s.

D.It consequently holds back the progress of modernization.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A.New preservation campaigns are launched in China.

B.Modernization poses threats to historic buildings.

C.A building in Shanghai “walks” to a new location.

D.“Walking machine” makes heritage protection cheaper.
