Good morning. I'm speaking to you today from Beijing. In just two days, I've seen some of the rich history and remarkable changes that are taking place in China, home to nearly one- quarter of the world's population.
China is the oldest civilization on Earth. In Xi'an, on Friday, I saw the old and the new China, from magnificent Terra Cotta Warriors sculpted by artisans 2,000 years before America was founded, to the beginnings of democracy in a nearby village, where residents soon will hold elections.
I've been touched by the warm reception given to me, my family, and the members of Congress travelling with us. Tens of thousands of Chinese families have lined the streets to greet us. For all these people, China is changing. I see cell phones, beepers, new office buildings.
China is no longer the same country it was when president Nixon first came here 26 years ago. Never before have so many Chinese had the opportunity to start businesses, lift their families out of poverty, choose where to live, work, and travel, and enjoy the fruits of their labors.
Today in Beijing I am meeting with China' s leaders to talk about the future of our two countries and a relationship between us that is essential to a peaceful, stable, and prosperous world in the next century. We talked about the United States and China's mutual interests ---- promoting peace in Korea, where 400,000 U.S. soldiers still risk their lives to patrol the Cold Wars last frontier; preventing a nuclear arms race between India and Pakistan; restoring economic stability in Asia; stopping the spread of unclear soldiers chemical, and biological weapons and the misspread of unclear soldiers chemical, and biological weapons and the missiles to deliver them; combating international crime and drug trafficking; preserving the environment; and opening trade.
China is important to our future, with the largest population on Earth, a permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council, an economy increasingly connected to our own. Without China, it will be difficult to face the challenges. In dealing with China, we must stay true to a course that is both principled and pragmatic．We must continue to expand our areas of cooperation, even as we deal directly with out differences. With China, we can build a safer, more prosperous future for our children, a world of unlimited possibility in the new century

As I travel across China, I hope to learn as much as I can about the Chinese people, your history, and your dreams for the future and I hope to help the Chinese people understand more of America's history, the lessons the American people have drawn from it, and the dreams we hold for the 21st century.
I believe both Chinese and Americans aspire(立志，有愿望) to many of the same things--to provide for our families, to teach our children, to build our communities, to protect our earth, to shape our own futures, and pass brighter possibilities on to our children.

We have a powerful ability to help each other grow. We can learn much from each other. And as two great nations, we have a special responsibility to the future of the world. The steps we take over the next week can lead to far greater strides for our people in the years ahead.
Here in this city of your magnificent history, we must always remember that we, too, are ancestors(祖先). Someday our children and their children will ask if we did all we could to build just societies and a more peaceful world. Let our monument be their judgment that we did that. Let our progress include all people, with all their differences, moving toward a common destiny.

Is it possible that the people of the world today could agree upon a single international language that everyone would be able to speak and understand?
In the United Nations there are five official languages-English, Chinese,
Russian, French and Spanish. How about making one of them into an international language? English has been worked on for this purpose. A basic word list of 850 English words named Basic English was made. These are the only verbs in the entire list,“come, go, give, keep, let, do, put, make, say, be, seem, may, will, have, send.”Writing in Basic English may require you to use a greater number of words-as in having to say“It came to my ears”instead of I heard-but you can still say anything you want to with just 850 different words and a few sufixes（后缀）and prefixes（前缀）．This is a much smaller number of words to have to remember than the ordinary number offered to the students of a foreign language.
But people have always had a need to do more than simply“Tell it as it is”. Language is for reporting not only one's work. For this, a language needs idioms, needs all kinds of grammar and style（文体）that show its history and development just as a person needs eyebrows（眉毛）. Is there some special reason why our lips should be a different color from the rest of our face? Perhaps not, but this is how people-real people-are. For communication between people, languages of all kinds will remain to reflect（反映）the growth and soul of the societies that speak them.
(1) The phrase“tell it as it is”in the third paragraph means __________.
[ ]
A．people can use Basic English to say what they want to
B．people think Basic English can express what they see or hear
C．people say what they want to according to the fact
D．people tell something they like to
(2) If we write a composition in Basic English, it will be________.
[ ]
A．longer than usual
B．shorter than usual
C．hard for us to express what we want to
D．able to express ourselves in different style as we like to
(3) Which of the following Statements is NOT true?
[ ]
A．Basic English is easier for students to learn.
B．Languages are like mirrors which can reflect the growth of the mankind.
C．Grammar and idioms are still necessary for us when we are learning a language.
D．Basic English will take the place not only of Queen's English, but also of the other languages in the world.
(4) This passage begins with a question．According to the writer's opinion, the answer to the question may be _________.
[ ]
A．it will be possible in the future
B．it seems to be possible if people agree to use Basic English
C．it seems impossible that people can use a simple language to express them-selves in various lives
D．it is impossible except that five official UN languages are used at the same time
(5) Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
[ ]
A．The words used in Basic English are strictly limited to 850, and nothing more.
B．Basic English is not a natural development of the English language.
C．Basic English can be used to express our thought easily.
D．Basic English seems not so easy to learn.

C
What comes as a shock to many Westerners may be the unfriendly way that some Chinese treat waiters and waitresses in restaurants and bars. Over the last few years,as many in Beijing have made fortunes,I and many of my foreign friends have noticed a downturn in the treatment of those who work all hours and often live in terrible conditions to bring us our food,guard our homes and sell us clothes.It's not the common citizens,but the young nouveau riches(暴发户) Chinese in Beijing who are mostly guilty of this both social and human misbehavior.
It is not unusual to see and hear these people,especially the young women among their ranks,speaking rudely to the waiters and waitresses,as they sit there in the misguided belief that the latest mobile phone,a new car and designer clothes give them the right to talk to people like dirt.In one recent incident(事件) in an expensive restaurant near where I live ,I overheard the table next to me,two guys and a girl,tell the waitress "You really are stupid ",because she had brought them two glasses instead of three.They all burst into loud laughter as the young girl ran away to fetch another.In anther incident I saw a waitress reduced to tears as four well-dressed girls criticized everything from her accent to her looks.
Lately I have noticed that this rather unpleasant aspect of the nouveau riches has been taken up by many of their foreign peers(同类人).So I ask Beijing's bright young things to set a good example,and treat all people with equal respect.And I urge foreigners to follow the good examples of their Chinese language teachers and textbooks while adding some of the pleasantries of their own cultures,so that cultural interpenetration(相互渗透) has a positive influence and not a negative one.
Here I'd like to leave you with the words from Confucius:"What you do not wish for yourself, do not "do to others."
64.The writer has noticed that less respect is shown to _______ in Beijing in recent years.
A.common citizens B.waiters and the like
C.young nouveau riches D.some foreigners
65.The two incidents mentioned in Paragraph 2 are used to show ______.
A.waiters and waitresses can make excusable mistakes
B.waitresses are usually too shy to be laughed at
C.some Beijingers are too particular about restaurant service
D.what's being talked about is not rare
66.The young Beijingers are asked to set a good example in order to ______
A.have good influence over foreigners
B.leave a good impression on foreigners
C.educate younger Chinese
D.develop traditional Chinese culture
67.The origial title of the article is most likely to be _______.
A.One Dark Side of the Bright Chinese Capital
B.Beijing's Young Nouveau Riches,Watch Out
C.Dno't Throw Away Good Manners,Please
D.People Like Waiters Live at Bottom of Society
