阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成下列各题
About one hundred years ago, many educated people spoke French when they met people from other countries. Today most people speak English when they meet foreigners. It has become the new international language. There are more people who speak English as a second language than people who speak English as a first language. Why?
There are many reasons why English has become so popular. One of them is that English has become the language of business. Another important reason is that popular American culture, like movies, music, and McDonald’s has quickly spread throughout the world. It has brought its language with it.
Is it good that English has spread to all parts of the world so quickly? I don’t know. It’s important to have a language that everyone has in common. Our world has become global and we need to communicate with one another. On the other hand, English is a rather hard language to learn and it brings its culture with it. Do we really need that?
Scientists have already tried to make an artificial（人造的）language that isn’t too difficult and isn’t from any one group’s culture. It is called Esperanto. But it hasn’t become popular. Maybe the popularity of English won’t last that long, either. Who knows? There are more people in the world who speak Chinese than any other language. Maybe someday Chinese will be the new international language.
1.What was the world language a century ago?
________________________________________________________________________________
2.Why has English become an international language today? Give at least two reasons.
_________________________________________________________________________________
3.What can we get from Paragraph 3?

4.In the last paragraph, what do scientists want to tell us?
________________________________________________________________________________
5.将第三段中划线句子翻译成汉语

John Robert’s father was a horse trainer. As a child, John often went from one farm to another with his father. Sometimes they didn’t have enough money to pay for food, but John still kept hoping to own a horse farm.
When he was in school, his teacher asked him to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up. He wrote a seven-page paper talking about his dream of having a horse farm one day. He even drew a picture of a horse farm in the paper.
The next day he handed it to his teacher. Two days later, he got his paper back. On the front page was a large red “F” with some words “See me after class.” And the boy did and asked his teacher, “ Why did I get an F?” The teacher said, “This dream will not come true for a young boy like you. Owning a horse farm needs a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for a lot of things. There is no way you could ever do it.” Then the teacher added,“ If you write this paper again with a simple dream, I will give you a good grade.”
After school he thought about it hard. At last, he decided to hand in the same paper, making no changes at all. He wrote, “You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.”
Many years later, John had his own 200 acres（英亩）horse farm. His dream came true.
So don’t let someone take away your dream. Follow your dreams, no matter what they are.

China is a nation of etiquette(礼仪). Chinese people are among the most hospitable (好客的) people in the world. If foreigners visit a Chinese family, they would be surprised at the warmth that they would receive as guests.
When you visit a Chinese family, the host usually makes tea for you. Then he will serve you snacks like biscuits or candies. Someone in the family will also chat with you, never letting you feel lonely.
At the same time, other family members will prepare a meal for you. Chinese people treat their guests with a big meal. They always present more food than the guest can eat. On the table, the guests must be the first to eat. Perhaps one of the things that surprises a western guest most is that the Chinese host likes to pick food for visitors, which won’t happen at western tables. The Chinese family go out of their way to make you feel at home. As you finish eating, the host usually says,” It seems that you didn’t eat much. Please have more.” Although you tell them you are full, they still put more food in your bowl.
Being warm and hospitable has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition. As Confucius (孔子) said thousands of years ago:
To meet friends from afar,
How happy we are!
