第一節(jié)（共15小題，每小題2分，滿分30分）a as we all know, language is always changing. in a society where life continues year after year with few changes, the language does not change either. the earliest known

the sixteenth century gave names to all the new plants and animals they found. in this way, hundreds of new words were introduced into english and spanish vocabularies. today life is changing very fast, and language is changing fast too. there are several major(主要) language families in the world. some scientists say there are nine main families, but other scientists divide them differently. the languages in each family are connected, and scientists think that they came from the same parent language. about 3 percent of the people in the world speak languages that are not in these major families.36. the early language had _. a. a lot of problems b. words and easy grammar c. words but no grammar d. grammar but not many words37. in the next few hundred years we can expect language to _. a. stay exactly the same b. change a great deal c. change only a little d. ask more words and drop some grammar38. what this article shows is that _. a. languages change fast b. languages really

pinnacle(頂點(diǎn)) of sheer(純粹的) delight. and those pinnacles seem to get rarer the older we get. 51 i remember playing police and robbers in the woods, getting a speaking part in the school play. of course, kids also experience lows, but their delight at such peaks of pleasure as winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved. for teenagers, or people under 20 the concept of happiness changes. 52 i can still feel the pain of not being invited to a party that almost everyone else was going to. i also remember the great happiness of being invited at another event to dance with a very handsome young man.in adulthood the things that bring great joybirth, love, marriagealso bring responsibility and the risk of loss. 53 for adults, happiness is complex. 54 but i think a better definition of happiness is “ the ability to enjoy something”. the more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. its easy to overlook the pleasure we get from loving and being loved, the company of friends, the freedom to live where we please,
