The United States of America is mainly an English-speaking country. The majority of the population speak English as their native language. Besides,education,social activities,etc. are conducted in English. Across but for the most part,Americans speak one common language. This language is sometimes called American English.
However,not everyone in the USA is a native speaker of English. Most immigrants (移民)are speakers of other languages. There are hundreds of communities around the USA where English is not the most commonly used languages. Chinese,Italian,German,Greek,Spanish and French are all spoken in various communities in the USA. Spanish is the second most commonly spoken language after English.It is widely spoken in New York and across the southern part of the country. For speakers of other languages,learning English is important,but teaching people to speak English as a second language was given little attention. Non-English speakers were expected to “pick up ” the language by meeting with others in public. Recently,this has changed.
Today,most large public schools and community colleges have ESL(English as a Second Language )programs; American English teachers feel that English students should learn the language the way they will use it. Therefore,ESL programs offer different English lessons to different students. Some programs teach students to communicate in English in public. Other programs teach the kind of English people who will need for their jobs. American ESL instructional methods do not lay emphasis on grammar or translation,but on the importance of communication. The goal is to get the English learners to learn by using the language.
【1】In the past the non-English immigrants___________.
A. didn’t know how to learn English B. found that English was not important
C. learned English through books D. paid special attention to teaching English
【2】__________ is the most widely used language except English in the US.
A. ESL B. French
C. Spanish D. Chinese
【3】The phrase “pick up” in the second paragraph means “__________”.

It’s 2035. You have a job, a family and you’re about 40 years old. Welcome to our future life.
Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror. “Turn red,” you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronics (智能电子元件) are rearranged in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe you’re 40. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old. You’re not even middle aged!
As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal(谷物) into a bowl, you hear, “To lose weight, you shouldn’t eat that,” from your shoes. They read the tiny electronic code on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details. You decide to listen to your shoes. “Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?” A list of possible foods appears on the counter as the kitchen cheeks its food supplies.
“Ready for your trip to space,” you ask your son and daughter. In 2005 only specially-trained astronauts went into space---and very few of them. Today anyone can go to space for daytrips or longer vacations. Your best friend even works in space. Handing your children three strawberries each, you add, “The doctor said you need these for space travel.” Thanks to medical advances, vaccination shots (防疫针) are a thing of the past. Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines(疫苗). With the strawberries in their mouths, the kids head for the front door.
It’s time for you to go to work. Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors. “My office, autopilot,” you command. Your car drives itself down the road and move smoothly into traffic on the highway. You sit back and unroll your e-newspaper. The latest news downloads and fills the viewer. Looking through the pages, you watch the news as video film rather than read it.
【1】What changes the color of your shirt?
A. The mirror. B. The shirt itself
C. The counter. D. The medicine.
【2】How do the shoes know that you shouldn’t eat the breakfast cereal?
A. By pouring the breakfast into a bowl. B. By listening to the doctor’s advice.
C. By testing the food supplies in the kitchen. D. By checking the nutrition details of the food.
【3】The strawberries the children eat serve as ______.
A. breakfast B. lunch
C. vaccines D. nutrition
【4】How is the text organized?
A. In order of time. B. In order of frequency.
C. In order of preference. D. In order of importance.

If you feel at present that you don’t have enough friends in your life, one reason may be that you have let yourself become too busy to make time for the relationships you already have. Starting and keeping friendship requires effort and commitment.
Many of us let our lives become so busy with work and other responsibilities that we don’t get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal(叙旧)with the friends, relatives and acquaintances we already have.
Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to accept more of their invitations you receive from others can improve your social life in a hurry!
Are there any people you could call right now and be sure to receive a pleasant welcome? Are there people that you could count onto help you in time of difficulty? Can you have close talks with them? Do you have fun when you are together? Are you happy to have them in your life?
If you haven’t seen much of them lately, is it because you have become too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?
If the main reason you haven’t been getting together with the people you already know is that you have got too busy. take a good look at how you spend your time. Compare it with your real values and priorities(优先考虑的事)in life. Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want?
If you have become too busy for friends, why has this happened? Are you seeking material toys in your life at the expense of relationships with other human beings? Have you allowed your time to be over spent because you never say “No” to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be appointed to others? If so, why? Do you believe that everything depends on you?
Examine whether the way you are now spending your time accurately reflects your deepest values and priorities. Make sure that you schedule adequate time for the things that are truly most important to you.
If you really want to keep friends in your life, make a space in your schedule, and a space in your heart for them.

Here come some of the ways advised to keep delighted and a healthy mood by Harvard.
♦ Be grateful and say thanks often
【1】 - the tiny purple flowers on the sidewalk, the beautiful sunset, and the smile in your partner’s eyes. When you have a grateful heart that is appreciative of life’s beauty, wonder and blessings, you’re automatically filled with delight. Always be appreciative of the blessings in your life. And it’s equally important to express your appreciation to those who’ve made your life better in some way.
♦ 【2】
If your tendency is to imagine the very worst case whenever you have a trouble, train yourself to change that tendency. Ask yourself what good can come from the situation or what you can learn from it. Optimism surely fuels success and delight.【3】. Try to find humor and laughter in life’s everyday struggles.
♦ Understand and forgive
Step into others’ shoes and understand a situation from another’s perspective, and we’re more likely to handle the situation with objectivity and effectiveness. There will be less conflicts and more delight.
Hate and anger are forms of self-punishment. When you forgive, you’re actually practicing kindness to yourself. Most importantly, learn to forgive yourself. Everyone makes mistakes.【4】.
♦ Keep learning and be a problem solver
Learning keeps us young and olive. When engaging our brains toward productive uses, we’re much more likely to feel delighted and fulfilled.
Delighted people are problem solvers. When facing a challenge in life, they don’t beat themselves up and fail into a depressive state.【5】. By becoming a problem solver, you’ll build up your self-confidence and your ability to accomplish whatever you set to.
