There are 42 where English is still not spoken，though it is the most widely known language．So，wouldn’t it be 43 if there was one language that could be understood by anyone anywhere in the world?Esperanto that was created in 1887 may be the world’s 44 truly international language．In fact，although 45 artificial(人造的) languages have been already created，only Esperanto has had much success．Its learners say that it is about four times 46 to learn than other languages．Spelling and pronunciation are both easy，too．For example，it does not have silent 47 like the“h”in“honest”．If you 48 a word，you can spell it without any difficulty．The grammar is also as simple as possible：only sixteen basic 49 ，no irregular verbs(不规则动词)，only six verb endings．In short，Esperanto should be attractive(有吸引力的) as a language to learn，50 there is a problem：how many people have met anyone who can really speak it? Anyway，we hope that some day one language can be mastered easily by anyone．41．A．need B．miss C．face D．touch42．A．offices B．schools C．cities D．places43．A．safe B．nice C．funny D．difficult44．A．first B．another C．last D．other45．A．little B．a little C．few D．a few46．A．better B．easier C．slower D．shorter47．A．marks B．parts C．words D．letters48．A．hear B．see C．watch D．notice49．A．subjects B．sentences C．rules D．lessons50．A．and B．but C．so D．because七、阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)阅读A、B、C三篇材料，然后从各小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。
