What should I do ?Try to remember eight or ten words a day. Write them on pieces of paper and place them in your bedroom. Say the words when you see them, and change them every day.

27、YANG YUANQING, Lenovo’s boss, hardly spoke a word of English until he was about 40: he grew up in rural poverty and read engineering at university. But when Lenovo bought IBM’s personal-computer division in 2005 he decided to immerse himself in English: he moved his family to North Carolina, hired a language tutor and — the ultimate sacrifice — spent hours watching cable-TV news.

Lenovo is one of a growing number of multinationals from the non-Anglophone world that have made English their official language. The fashion began in places with small populations but global ambitions such as Singapore and Switzerland.

Corporate English is now invading more difficult territory, such as Japan. Rakuten, a cross between Amazon and eBay, and Fast Retailing, which operates the Uniqlo fashion chain, were among the first to switch. Now they are being joined by old-economy companies such as Honda, a carmaker, and Bridgestone, a tyre maker. Chinese firms are proving harder to handle: they have a huge internal market and are struggling to enroll competent managers of any description, let alone English-speakers. But some are following Lenovo’s lead. Huawei has introduced English as a second language and encourages ambitious employees to become fluent.

There are some obvious reasons why multinational companies want a lingua franca(共通语). Adopting English makes it easier to recruit global stars (including board members), reach global markets and assemble global production teams. Such steps are especially important to companies in Japan, where the population is shrinking.

Tsedal Neeley of Harvard Business School says that “Englishnisation” can stir up a hornet’s nest of emotions. Ms Neeley argues that companies must think carefully about implementing a policy that touches on so many emotions. Senior managers should explain to employees why switching to English is so important, provide them with classes and conversation groups, and offer them incentives(刺激) to improve their fluency. Those who are already proficient in English should speak more slowly and try not to dominate conversations. And managers must act as referees and enforcers, resolving conflicts and discouraging staff from return to their native tongues.

Intergovernmental bodies like the European Union are obliged to pretend that there is no predominant global tongue. But businesses worldwide are facing up to the reality that English is the language on which the sun never sets.

【1】Lenovo’s boss made all the efforts to familiarize himself with English except ______.

A．hiring a language tutor

B．resettling in an English-speaking environment

C．expanding the business overseas

D．exposing himself to English Cable-TV news

【2】What can we infer from the passage?

A．Most Chinese firms would like to introduce corporate English.

B．Chinese firms are in great need of English majors as their managers.

C．Huawei followed Lenovo as the second largest multinational in China.

D．Adopting corporate English is more difficult in places with a large population.

【3】Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A．The decrease in population pushes the Japanese to learn English well.

B．Neither the governmental bodies nor businesses will regard English as a global tongue.

C．Companies should handle employees’ emotions carefully during the switch.

D．Those good at English should be encouraged to speak more in the company.

【4】Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A．English—Global Tongue in Business

B．English—Chinese Business Leaders’ New Fashion

C．English—The Best Tool in Communication

D．English—Dominating Factor of Successful Business

28、 Too much eating. Too many unhealthy foods. Too many ads for food. Too few activities. Different reasons are given for America’s weight problem---a problem increasingly shared by other countries. Almost one-fifth of American children and teenagers             are overweight.

Schools have been asked to increase physical education, an important tool for public health. However, a recent study has shown an increase in the number of injuries in P.E. classes.

Researchers say one possible reason for this is a decrease in the number of school nurses. Schools without a nurse on duty may be more likely to send an injured child to a hospital.

Another possible reason for more injuries is a change in the traditional idea of physical education. This “New P.E.” expands the kinds of sports that are taught. But activities that some schools offer now, like rock climbing and skateboarding, can             also increase the risks, says Cheryl Richardson, who is with the National Association for Sport and Physical Education(NASPE).

She also says not all states require P.E. teachers to be specially trained. Untrained teachers could be less likely to recognize unsafe conditions.

Cheryl Richardson points to one of the study’s findings –that injuries are often the result of contact with a person or a structure. This tells her that the teachers were not giving each student enough space to move around safely.

Six activities produced seventy percent of all injuries: running, basketball, football, volleyball, rugby and gymnastics.

The researchers say larger class sizes are another possible reason for the increase in injuries. Larger classes can mean less supervision(监督). The National Association for Sport and Physical Education says twenty to thirty students in a P.E. class             should be the limit.

【1】What does the passage mainly discuss?

A．What leads to the weight problem in America.

B．Whether students should have more P.E. classes.

C．Why there have been more injuries in P.E. classes.

D．What kinds of activities are safe for school students.

【2】We can know from the third paragraph that__________.

A．nurses are paid more in hospitals than in schools in America.

B．many nurses in American schools don’t have good skills.

C．fewer people choose to become a nurse in America.

D．American schools need more school nurses at present.

【3】Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．P.E. classes become more dangerous for students now in America.

B．Fewer and fewer students are interested in P.E. classes in America.

C．The number of P.E. teachers in schools must be increased now.

D．P.E. classes follow the traditional ideas in physical education.

【4】According to Cheryl Richardson,____________.

A．students should do more exercise when they are at school

B．teachers are partly responsible for injuries in P.E. classes

C．the equipment for P.E. classes must be improved in all schools.

D．P.E. teachers should give students more freedom in their classes

29、   Give your dead batteries (电池) a new life. Recycle them!

Batteries are used to power clocks, computers, tools and more. However, your batteries have some serious power when their lives are over.

WHY TO RECYCLE BATTERIES:

Remember, batteries are harmful waste. This means we should properly throw them away. You may not think one little battery can cause that much pollution. But don’t think of it as just one battery—there can be millions. In Canada, each person uses about 20 single-use batteries every year. That’s about 700 million batteries! If all these batteries end up in landfills (垃圾填埋场), the heavy metals inside them can get into the water, land and air. It can be harmful to humans and wildlife.

By recycling single-use batteries instead of throwing them away, you can cut down pollution and also help save energy. All batteries are mainly made of plastic and valuable metals. Through recycling programs, dead batteries can be changed into something useful like steel products, or even new batteries.

HOW TO RECYCLE BETTARIES:

Make a difference by starting to collect batteries at your home or school today. You can prepare a box for battery collection and invite friends, family and classmates to bring in old batteries to be recycled.

There are many ways to deal with your batteries. You can:

● Find a Call to Recycle public collection station near you.

● Ask the store where you bought the batteries if you can return them there.

● Communicate with your local city government to find out if there are special programs for recycling used batteries!
