Passage 1
People in different countries speak different languages. But is there a language that can be understood by everyone in the world? If there is, the answer might be EMOJIS (表情符号).
Emojis are a kind of special language. Pictures are used to put meaning across. A group called the Unicode Consortium works on choosing emojis. It has added new emojis every year since 2014. They show what people think about and like.
Emojis can be used to represent(代表) different groups of people. In 2015, emoji faces with different skin tones(肤色) were added. In 2016, different jobs were added, such as doctor, police officer and painter. This year, emojis of disabled people were added including emojis of blind people and people in wheelchairs.
But there is also more to emojis. They can also refer to(指的是) pop culture and new cultural trends(潮流).
New emojis in 2019 also include several animals, such as sloths (树懒) and flamingos(火烈鸟). These animals are not very common, but are known to many people. For example, sloths have become popular because of the 2016 film Zootopia(《疯狂动物城》). Many fashion designers(设计师) have included flamingos in their designs in recent years. This animal makes people feel like they’re on a vacation.
It seems that emojis are a mirror of the world we live in. It will be interesting to see how they change and grow in the years to come.

Passage 2
Learning a new language is hard. In recent research, scientists found that your chances of reaching fluency(流利) in a new language drop off at the age of 10. Does that mean you should give up your French class if you are older than 10? No!
The research found that it’s “nearly impossible” to reach fluency if you start learning a language after age 10. That’s not because your language skills start to get worse. “You’re still learning fast,” says Joshua. “It’s just because your ability to learn starts dropping at around 10 or 11 years old.”
The researchers say people who try to learn a new language after 10 may still become quite good. But they will probably not become fluent. Kids may be better than adults at learning new languages for many reasons. One is that children’s brains are more adaptable(能适应的) than adults’ brains. This means they are better able to change. Kids may also would like to try new things. And adults may depend on the rules of their first language. But kids are able to accept a new language without them.
15.Why is it difficult to reach fluency if we start learning a language after age 10? ( )
A.We are too old to learn well. B.We can’t learn fast any more.
C.Our language skills start to get worse. D.Our ability to learn starts dropping.
16.Why are adults worse than kids at learning a new language? ( )
A.Adults may depend on the rules of their first language.
B.Adults are able to accept a new language easily.
C.Adults’ brains are more adaptable.
D.Adults like to try new things.
17.Who would become more fluent in learning a new language? ( )
A.Mary, 8 years old. B.Tom, 18 years old.
C.Jenny, 42 years old. D.Lucy, 65 years old.
18.What does the passage mainly want to tell us? ( )
A.We should give up our new class if we are older than 10.
B.We’d better try to learn a new language before 10.
C.Learning a new language after 10 may still become quite good.
D.We should learn a new language when we are old.
Ⅲ.回答问题
There are many holidays and festivals. Dads have Father’s Day. Mums have Mother’s Day. But do our grandparents have a special festival? Yes, they do!
The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for people in China. It started long ago. The festival is on lunar September 9th. On this day, people show love and respect to their grandparents.
There are many ways in which Chinese people express their respect. When an older person enters a room, everyone stands. People are introduced from the oldest to the youngest. When we present a book to an older person, two hands are used. Young people always offer their seats to older people on crowded subway or on a bus.
Respecting older people is a tradition in China. That’s because the Chinese know that older people have knowledge and experience that young people can learn. Chinese people are proud of being old.
Westerners respect their older people, too. Usually, seniors don’t have to buy tickets for trains and buses. They are given discounts(打折) in stores and restaurants.
But Western seniors don’t often live with their children—they live alone. For holidays, the family usually gather at the grandparents’ home, and a great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for grown children to show their respect.
19.When is the Double Ninth Festival?(不超过10个词)
20.What can the young learn from older people?(不超过10个词)
21.How do Western grown children show their respect?(不超过15个词)
