The fact is that they arent.Some statistics(数据)from the survey done by the European Commission(欧盟委员会) showed that 62% of the British people only speak English.38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the British people, 56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more. From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. Thats why my people dont think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.In Britain, students are not required to learn a foreign language. That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school. In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at l1 and many of them give it up at 14. So why dont students continue learning foreign languages at school? Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.To solve this situation, the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school. One way is to start learning it at a much younger age. Another one is to give school children more choices.Changing the British attitude(态度)to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try!（1）Which country does the writer come from?

Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter can really improve peoples health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works on several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effects of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated（忍耐）the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics(诊所), in which they help to improve their patients condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter. （1）According to the passage, which of the following statements is WRONG? A . Laughter is good for healthB . Laughter can make you become old quicklyC . Laughter helps to reduce pain.D . Laughter, just like physical exercise, is good for our body.（2）The underlined word diminishes in the third paragraph means _. A . causesB . stopsC . increasesD . reduces（3）Why do some doctors hold laughter clinics? A . Because they want to earn more money.B . Because they think they will help the patients recover from illnesses quickly.C . Because they want to improve their patients condition.D . Because they want their patients to practice how to laugh（4）According to the author, we should . A . laugh as much as possibleB . watch more funny filmsC . smile all the timeD . spend more time in laughter clinics（5）What would be the best title for this passage? A . Both laughter and physical exercise are good for healthB . Laughter clinics help patients improve their conditionC . Laughter can reduce the effects of painD . Laughter is the best medicine.13. （8分）阅读理解 The Kennedy Elementary school band(乐队)is special. Thats because Tony Boland, a member of it, is a 79-year-old flute(长笛)player.
