But another contrary trend has educators and policy makers abuzz: a rush by schools in all parts of America to offer instructions in Chinese. Some schools are paying for Chinese classes on their own, but hundreds are getting some help. The Chinese government is sending teachers from China to schools all over the worldand paying part of their salaries. No one keeps an exact count, but rough calculations based on the governments survey suggest that perhaps 1,600 American public and private schools are teaching Chinese, up from 300 or so a decade ago. And the number is growing exponentially (成倍地). “Its really changing the language education landscape of this country,” said Nancy C. Rhodes, director at the center. Other indicators point to the same trend. “The number of students taking the Advanced Placement test in Chinese, introduced in xx, has grown so fast that it is likely to pass German this year as the third most-tested A.P. language, after Spanish and French, ” said Trevor Packer, vice president at the College Board. “Weve all been surprised that in such a short time Chinese would grow to surpass A.P. German,” Mr. Packer said. A decade ago, most of the schools with Chinese programs were on the East and West Coasts. But in recent years, many schools have started Chinese programs in heartland states, including Ohio and Illinois in the Midwest, Texas and Georgia in the South, and Colorado and Utah in the Rocky Mountain West. America has had the study of a foreign language grow before, only to see the bubble burst. Many schools began teaching Japanese in the 1980s, after Japan emerged as an economic rival. But thousands have dropped the language, the survey found. Japanese is not the only language that has declined. Thousands of schools that offered French, German or Russian have stopped teaching those languages too, the survey found.59. Which of the following is FALSE according to the passage? A. More and more people choose Chinese in A. P. test.B.Japanese, French, German and French have declined in America.C. Chinese programs have been started in more areas in America recently.D. China supports Chinese programs abroad by paying all the salaries of the teachers. 60.What does the underlined word “surpass” in the fourth paragraph mean? A. Do or be better than.B. Be equal to. C. Do or be worse than.D. Be junior to.61. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. American schools have stopped teaching French, German, Japanese and Russian.B. Chinese bees more popular in America while other foreign languages fade. C. Chinese is being learned as an official language all over the world.D. People are gradually fond of learning Chinese and Japanese in recent years.CCalifornia condors (大秃鹫) are North Americas largest birds, with wing-length of up to 3 meters. In the 1980s, electrical lines and lead poisoning(铅中毒) nearly drove them to dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild, and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona, Utah and Baja in Mexico.Electrical lines have been killing them off. “As they go in to rest for the night, they just dont see the power lines,” says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge the gap between lines, resulting in electrocution (电死) if they touch two lines at once.So scientists have e up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large training areas, teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but undeadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of set-freed condors died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%. Lead poisonous has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead. This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney failures and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo, where they are treated with calcium EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days. This work is starting to pay off. The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from 38% in xx to 5.4% in xx. Rideouts team thinks that the California condors average survival time in the wild is now just under eight years. “Although these measures are not effective forever, they are vital for now,” he says. “They are truly good birds that are worth every effort we put into recovering them. ”62. We can learn from the passage that _. A. California condors are Americas largest birds, which can fly up to 3 meters highB. California condors risk of dying out attracted researchers interest in the 1980sC. electrical lines can lead to California condors kidney failures and death D. the annual death rate for adult condors has dropped by 48% since xx63. How does the author prove the efforts to recover California condors effective? A. By listing and paring data. B. By analyzing phenomena.C. By setting examples.D. By making ments.64. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. The measures are only effective in a very short time.B. The measures will be vital forever if taken properly.C. The measures shouldnt be taken, for it isnt effective forever. D. The measures should be taken, for the birds deserve recovering.65. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. California Condors Shocking RecoveryB. California Condors unexpected survivalC. California Condors longer lifeD. California Condors effective trainingDAlthough not as much as in the past, grandparents are the teachers of the Navajo (纳瓦霍人) youth. They make young people aware of life at an early age. The parents allow them to teach the children, and the grandparents take great pride in raising the children or at least having a big part in raising them.Young children often stay with their grandparents for years at a time, developing a close and trusting relationship. The grandparents teach the children Navajo legends and the principle of life, emphasizing both new culture trends and the preservation of traditions.The grandparents are also often the leading figures in teaching the youth the arts of weaving (编织), caring for the animals, using herbal medicine, and other arts and crafts.The children are taught to respect their elders, to care for them, to help them whenever they are in need, and to learn from them. Young people are urged to listen with care to the words of their elders and to keep as much wisdom as possible. Grandparents often go to social gatherings and traditional events, and the young have opportunities to learn more about their culture and traditions.I live with my grandmother for thirteen years, and she raised me in the old ways of our people. Although I was going to school, she taught me as much as she could about our traditions. She was a beautiful woman. If I had a chance, I would listen again to her wise teachings, expressed with kindness in a soft voice that touched my heart.We used to plant corn and pumpkin every summer. They never grew big enough to feed us, but we planted them anyway. I asked my grandmother why. She said, “Grandson, our plants will be far more beautiful than the flowers outside the fence.” I did not understand until one day I saw their beauty as I was ing over the hill with her. She said, “Anything that is a part of you is always far more beautiful than the things which you pass by.” We had some beautiful years together. I am glad she is a part of me and I am a part of her.Children used to be well disciplined, showing more respect for culture, tradition, and beliefs than they do now. The world of the Navajo has been influenced by the western world, and the grandparents have less control and influence than they used to. But the young pe
