As the summer time approaches, more and more commercials and advertisements can be seen on the mass media encouraging students to join English study tours abroad. The purpose of these tours is to provide students with an opportunity to learn English in a native speaking environment and use English in real situations. Parents always believe that their children will automatically speak good English after attending these study tours. However, for me, as an English major and former participant of many English study tours, I find these summer tours ineffective.
Parents who send their children abroad for a summer to study English usually believe that the native speaking environment, including the courses, teachers, and host families, can help their children to learn English better. This might be true if the students really study hard and they really get an all-English environment. But the fact is that, most of the time, the tour part is more important than the study part. Although these tours take place in foreign countries, students are rarely exposed in an all-English environment. You will find that, in the morning classes, Taiwanese students would like to stick together and speak Chinese with each other, even though there are some students from other countries. In the afternoon, the students go on a sightseeing excursion with their companions from Taiwan; they speak Chinese of course. In the evening, when students return to the host families, they would stay in their room and share the day with their roommate, another Taiwanese student. People who speak the same language with you is like a log(原木)in the ocean when living in a foreign country where you can not express yourself well, so that you would naturally stick with them. This is especially true with children.
Another unrealistic expectation parents have for these tours is that the experience of living abroad can make their children more independent and mature. However, maturity does not come overnight. It takes time and practice. The most important of all is that they need a good mentor(顾问). None of these exist in the study tours.
【小题1】Which of the following is the most important thing for children who study in an English environment according to the writer?

A.Host families.B.Hard work.C.Courses. D.Teachers.
【小题2】The underlined word “mature” in the last paragraph probably means    .
A.activeB.freeC.outgoing D.grown-up
【小题3】What’s the author’s attitude towards the English study tours abroad?
A.Doubtful.B.Negative.C.Positive. D.Neutral.

Starting from April, 2010, you won’t be hearing the word “NBA” on sports programs on CCTV. Instead, sport host will give the full Chinese name when they refer to the NBA – National Basketball Association. You also won’t hear any other English abbreviations (缩略词) on CCTV’s Chinese programs, such as GDP (gross domestic product), or WTO (World Trade Organization). You will hear their Chinese translations.

CCTV received a notice from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television telling it to avoid using English-language abbreviations in their reports to protect the “purity” of the Chinese language. A few other TV stations also received the notice.

Fu Zhenguo, an editor of People’s Daily, is one of the people who suggested the change. “Firstly, using English in a Chinese-speaking environment is against Chinese law,” he said. “Then, using English on Chinese TV programs is unfair to people who don’t understand English. What’s worse, it will have a bad language influence on kids and teenagers.”

A lot of netizens have criticized the move, saying that it will cause problems for them.

“I understand what CD, VCD and DVD mean when I hear them. But I won’t know what the TV programs are talking about if I hear those products’ full Chinese names,” a netizen wrote in a BBS post. Following the same post, another netizen wrote jokingly: “I’m not listening to my MP3 now. I’m listening to my Moving Picture Experts Group-1 Audio Layer 3 (动态影像专家压缩标准音频第三层面).”

1.What does the underlined word “purity” in the second paragraph mean?

A. 纯正                        B. 高贵                       C. 时髦                       D. 潮流

2.How many reasons did Fu Zhenguo list to show his support for the change?

A. 1                             B. 2                             C. 3                             D. 4

3.Some netizens went against the change because_______________.

A. the application of abbreviations will make Chinese popular.                              

B. the application of abbreviations will attract the youth.

C. the application of abbreviations will not simplify the understanding.                  

D. the application of abbreviations will not bring Chinese to an end.

4.What can be the full name of CCTV mentioned in the text?

A. Close Closet Top Video                                 B. China Central Television

C. China Common Time Voice                           D. Closed-Circuit Television
