26、The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.

Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately, this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits（益处） to knowing more than one language.

One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so you’re more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.

Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person’s understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.

Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other’s problems.

The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don’t try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.

【1】What is the passage mainly about?

A．The benefits of learning other languages.

B．The reasons why people come to America.

C．The importance of learning English

D．How to learn another language.

【2】The passage begins with the experience of the Vieira family in order to ________.

A．discuss the need for teaching a new language

B．introduce the passage’s main characters to the readers

C．describe the advantages of moving to another country

D．show the problems of speaking only one language

【3】The underlined phrase “multi-language speaker”（Paragraph5）means “people who know ________”

A．their mother language

B．new language

C．more than one language

D．body language

【4】According to the passage, if you can speak more than one language, you can ________.

A．find a better job

B．make more friends

C．better understand history

D．communicate more independently

【5】Based on the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?

A．Not knowing another language.

B．Forgetting one’s mother language

C．Refusing to learn another language.

D．Failing to communicate with others.

27、Tomatoes, sweet and juicy, are one of the world’s oldest foods. They were discovered by the Indians of South America thousands of years ago. The first tomatoes were very small.

Of course, he didn’t. and from then on, tomatoes became popular in America.

In the beginning, people argued whether tomatoes were fruit or vegetables. From a scientific point of view, they were fruit. A fruit was the ripened ovary of any plant that made seeds. However, this didn’t stop most people from calling them vegetables, They said that tomatoes were eaten with the main meal-just like vegetables. So, they thought tomatoes must surely be vegetables.

Whether tomatoes are vegetables or not, they won’t disappear any time now. They are just delicious, for everyone to eat.
