Many people believe that you lose the ability to learn new languages as you get older. Language experts, however, will tell you that you’re never too old to learn a new language. As you get older, it can be more difficult to learn a new language, though.
Children and adults learn new languages in different ways. For children, language is their life. They study for thousands of hours every year, because they need to learn languages to become part of their communities. Adults, on the other hand, are already part of a language community. Learning a new language means becoming part of another language community, and adults rarely get the chance to practice as much as young children do.
Moreover, children learning a new language are expected to make mistakes. This gives them freedom when learning to be daring and confident. Adults, however, often feel pressured to be perfect when learning a new language. This can discourage many people and make it even harder to learn a new language.
When young children learn a new language, they come to see various languages as a “normal” part of society. This mindset(思维模式) helps them embrace learning a new language without feeling like they’re doing something unusual or “too hard”.
So if you want to learn a new language, go for it! It’s never too late to learn a new language. If you’re older, it may take more work, but it can be done. If you’re a young child, though, now is the time to step out and learn a new language!
1.By “language is their life”, the author means that children .
A. can’ t live without language
B. lead a happy life every day
C. practice a new language a lot
D. are taken good care of adults
2.What may make it hard for the old people to learn to a new language?
A. They are afraid of being laughed at
B. They usually have too many interests
C. They think making mistakes is natural
D. They always make all kinds of mistakes
3.Which of the following shows the difference between children and adults in learning a new language?
A. The behaviors they have
B. The learning attitudes
C. The future plans they have made
D. The materials they are using
4.According to the author, a new language .
A. can never be learned by the old people
B. can be grasped by the old people easily
C. can be understood only by the old people
D. can be learned by both the old and the young

Why do some people live to be older than others?You know the standard explanations: keeping a moderate diet, engaging in regular exercise,etc.But what effect does your personality have on your longevity?Do some kinds of personalities lead to longer lives?A new study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society looked at this question by examining the personality characteristics of 246 children of people who had lived to be at least 100.
The study shows that those living the longest are more outgoing,more active and less neurotic (神经质的) than other people.Long-living women are also more likely to be sympathetic and cooperative than women with a normal life span.These findings are in agreement with what you would expect from the evolutionary theory: those who like to make friends and help others can gather enough resources to make it through tough times.
Interestingly,however,other characteristics that you might consider advantageous had no impact on whether study participants were likely to live longer.Those who were more self-disciplined,for instance,were no more likely to live to be very old.Also,being open to new ideas had no relationship to long life,which might explain all those bad-tempered old people who are fixed in their ways.
Whether you can successfully change your personality as an adult is the subject of a longstanding psychological debate.But the new paper suggests that if you want long life,you should strive to be as outgoing as possible.
Unfortunately,another recent study shows that your mother’s personality may also help determine your longevity.That study looked at nearly 28,000 Norwegian mothers and found that those moms who were more anxious,depressed and angry were more likely to feed their kids unhealthy diets.Patterns of childhood eating can be hard to break when we’re adults,which may mean that kids of depressed moms end up dying younger.
Personality isn’t destiny(命运),and everyone knows that individuals can learn to change.But both studies show that long life isn’t just a matter of your physical health but of your mental health.
1.What finding of the study might prove somewhat out of our expectation?
A. Helpful people can live a relatively long life.
B. Readiness to accept new ideas offer more possibility to enjoy longevity.
C. Being self-discipline makes no difference to longevity.
D. Personality characteristics that prove advantageous actually vary with times.
2.According to the author,outgoing and sympathctic people _______.
A. have a good understanding of evolution. B. are more likely to recover from hardship.
C. are probably more active and neurotic. D. generally appear more resourceful.
3.What does the recent study of Norwegian mothers show?
A. Children’s personality characteristics are always shared by their mothers.
B. People with unhealthy eating habits are likely to die at a young age.
C. Mothers’ may have a longer influence on children than fathers’.
D. Mothers’ ancient may affect their children’s life spans.
4.What can we learn from the findings of the two new studies?
A. A mixture of mental and physical health produces longevity.
B. A person’s lifestyle is largely related to his or her health.
C. Personality plays a decisive and significant role in how healthy one is.
D. Anxiety and depression more often than not cut short one’s life span.

Have you ever heard of the Coral Sea? It is home to an amazing variety of turtles, sharks, whales, dolphins, large fish, birds, corals, plants, and many other species. Many of these species are endangered elsewhere in the world, but still survive in the healthy environment of the Coral Sea.
The Coral Sea is a large series of coral reefs located off the northeast coast of Australia. This area is three times larger than Australia’s famous Great Barrier Reef, which the Coral Sea borders.
The Coral Sea is one of the few coral reef environments that have remained largely undamaged by over-fishing, oil and gas exploration and pollution. However, statistics show that coral reefs around the world are disappearing five times faster than rainforests. It is very likely that in the near future the Coral Sea will face the same threats to its existence.
The Australian government is currently looking at options for protecting the Coral Sea but has made no decisions. Environmentalists are pushing for laws to declare the Coral Sea area a marine protected area, which will mean a large “no-take zone” for fishermen, a no-exploration zone for gas and oil companies and a no-dump zone for pollution, possibly making the Coral Sea a marine park larger than any other in the world.
We can write letters to Australian leaders, Australian environmental protection agencies, and Australian friends, to let them know that people worldwide support this protection of the Coral Sea. To lose this last great marine wilderness world would be a loss for the whole world.
1.According to the passage, why should we protect the Coral Sea without any delay?
A. Because the Coral Sea, home to many species, will disappear soon.
B. Because the Coral Sea is rich in natural resources like oil and gas.
C. Because the Coral Sea is three times larger than Great Barrier Reef.
D. Because the Coral Sea will be a marine park larger than any other in the world.
2.Once the Coral Sea area is declared n marine protected area by law, .
A. it will surely become the largest marine park all over the world
B. no one will be allowed to there to have a dose look any more
C. from time to time people can still dump their rubbish around there
D. over-fishing, oil and gas exploration will be banned altogether there
3.What is the attitude of the author towards the protection of the Coral Sea?
A. Objective. B. Favorable.
C. Doubtful. D. Negative.
