Most of my classmates stayed in Hawaii for a college or went to schools on the West Coast, but I decided to broaden my horizons by attending Purdue University in Indiana. When I was there, I discovered I was a minority(少数派) — something I had never experienced back home.Being a minority for the first time, I felt I was a person who knew nothing about what they often talked about. My ideas, interests and values were often thought to be not important. After sharing a different point of view, I would often hear: “What do you know? You’re from Hawaii.” These answers finally stopped me from telling where I was from.That summer I went home to work for a political organization in Honolulu, where I discovered a love for working on laws. Slowly, my pride in my culture came back.I returned to Purdue with a newfound love for my background. I decided to try my best to share my culture with everyone I could and, after I did, I found people were more willing to hear my ideas. I changed my major (专业) to political science and decided I wanted to be a civil servant (公务员).I’m still young and have much to learn, but I will always remain proud of my culture. It has helped me form who I am today and helped me have. a better understanding of the world. I’ve also learned to be more patient and more open, I will make sure to provide a safe space for people to express their ideas and backgrounds without fear of being left out.26. Why did the writer attend a university in Indiana?A. To get a better education,B. To make more friends.C. To enjoy the scenery.D. To broaden his horizons.27. How did the writer feel at first after moving to Indiana?A. Unhappy.B. Surprised.C. Excited.D. Tired.28. Put the following sentences in the correct order according to the passage.①The writer changed his major(专业) to political science.②The writer discovered a love for working on laws.③The writer attended Purdue University in Indiana.④The writer started to try his best to share his culture with others.A. ④②①③B. ④②③①C. ③②①④D. ③②④①29. What would be a good title for this passage?A. How to respect a new cultureB. Leaning a lot from my new experienceC. Providing a safe space for othersD. How to share your opinion with othersBEach year on Feb 21, UNESCO(联合国教科文组织) holds an International Mother Language Day (IMLD). The event is to help people to pay attention to the disappearance of the world’s languages and try to encourage people to learn and use them.What happens when a language dies out? Something great is lost--not just sounds and marks but the way that people understand the world and communicate with each other. We keep differentcultures and traditions through languages. Kill a language and all these are killed too.Through MLD, more and more people come to realize the terrible situation and try to stop it.Google’s 2018 Endangered Languages Project is a good example. In order to avoid losing them, many speakers and protectors of endangered languages upload(上传) texts, audios and videos to the project website. They want to introduce the way that people communicate and express themselves around the world. The Myaamia Project is the same kind of way to revive the language spoken by the Miami tribes (部落) of the United States. Project members work to encourage people to study and communicate with this language, which died out in the 1960s. These activities give life to those endangered languages. People who work to keep languages alive are not limited to the past. Many young people design apps and use social media to support their activities. They “spread the word” to save the world.So, although the problem of disappearing languages remains a very serious one, there is hope. We all have a special feeling of our mother language. This is why we should remember the wise words of late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela: “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”30. UNESCO holds IMLD every year in order to help people to _________.A.1earn and use endangered languagesB. show their talents in learning languagesC. practice reading skills of mother languagesD. realize the situation of endangered languages31. What does the underlined word “revive” mean in Paragraph 4?A. put...awayB. take…awayC. keep...aliveD. give...back32. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A. It is more difficult to protect endangered languagesB. The disappearance of languages has already stopped.C. Young people don’t care about endangered languagesD. Young people have creative ways to protect languages33. The writer mentions Nelson Mandela’s words in order to _________.A. tell that one’s mother language is very importantB. show how they should protect languageC. tell that it is hard to learn endangered languagesD. show it is possible to protect mother languagesCI have always had a heart for saving or caring for animals.

I found it while walking to school. Itwas in the street and his wing was broken. I hid it in the woods and when I went home, it was still there and I decided to bring it home. My father made a box for it and I fed it bread and water every day. The next animal I found was a black dog, and she was about to have puppies. My father found the dog tied outside of our house and decided to take it in. The dog was very delighted and you couldn’t imagine how terrible this dog was before. We kept him in a box. A few days later, the dog had seven puppies. No one wanted them, so I had them too. The animals grew to be large. Finally, we had dogs, cats, birds and rabbits.As time went by, my mum felt better. To everyone’s joy, she could come back home. At that time, we had at least twenty animals in our house, but my mum couldn’t stand(忍受) their smell. She wanted them to go. In order to help my mum stay healthy, we had to let them go. One of the animals, a German shepherd(牧羊犬), was given away to a family with three boys. They were our neighbors, so I visited it whenever I could. The dog remembered me and every time he was happy to see me. Animals are our friends, and I will try to help them whenever I can.34.
