Each year n Feb 21, UNESCO (联合国教科文组织) hlds an Internatinal Mther Language Day (IMLD). The event is t help peple t pay attentin t the disappearance f the wrld's languages; many f them are disappearing each year. UNESCO sees this as a terrible fact.
What happens when a language dies ut? Smething great is lst—nt just sunds and wrds but the way that peple understand the wrld and cmmunicate with each ther. We keep different cultures and traditins thrugh languages. Killing a language means all these are killed t.
Thrugh IMLD, mre and mre peple cme t realize the terrible situatin and try t stp it. Ggle's 2018 Endangered Languages Prject is a gd example. Many speakers and prtectrs f endangered languages uplad (上传) texts, audis (音频) and vides t the prject website. They want t intrduce the way that peple cmmunicate and express themselves arund the wrld.
The Myaamia Prject is the same kind f effrt t revive the language spken by the Miami tribes (部落) f the United States. Prject members wrk t encurage peple t study and cmmunicate with this language, which died ut in the 1960s.
These activities give life t thse endangered languages. Peple wh wrk t keep languages alive are nt limited t the past. Many yung peple design apps and use scial media (媒体) t supprt their activities. They "spread the wrd” t save the wrld.
S, while the prblem f disappearing languages remains a very serius ne, there is hpe. We all have a special feeling f ur mther languages. This is why we shuld remember the wise wrds f late president f Suth Africa, Nelsn Mandela: "If yu talk t a man in a language he understands, that ges t his head. If yu talk t a man in his wn language, that ges t his heart. ”
27.What did peple d in Ggle's 2018 Endangered Languages Prject?
A.They prvided bks n cmmunicatin skills.
B.They discussed hw t make gd use f the Internet.
C.They shared materials abut endangered languages nline.
D.They translated endangered languages int mther languages.
28.The wrd "revive" in Paragraph 4 prbably means "
A. start reusingB. remember chsing
C.try creatingD. cntinue experimenting
29.What can we infer frm Paragraph 5 ?
A.The disappearance f languages has already stpped.
B.It's impssible fr yung peple t prtect languages.
C.Fewer and fewer peple wrk t keep languages alive.
D.Yung peple have creative ways t prtect languages.
30.The writer mentins Nelsn Mandela's wrds in rder t .

We’ve all experienced failure. Whether we like it r nt, failure is part f life. Hw peple respnd t it is f great imprtance bth t their decisins and achievements. Sme are likely t have such expectatins: “If I shuld reach that gal, hw happy wuld I feel?” In a recent study, we wanted t understand hw such expectatins may change in the face f failure. Are peple able t predict their wn happiness?
The ld saying “the grass is always greener n the ther side” suggests that peple spend much f their time lnging fr things they can’t have. In ther wrds, the harder it is t achieve, the higher the valuatin. But is this a gd mdel fr hw rdinary peple prcess failure? Accrding t the stry The Fx and the Grapes, failure ften leads us t drp ur initial (最初的) plan. In the stry, the fx jumps with all his strength, yet he fails t reach the grapes. Finally, he walks away, cncluding that the grapes were sur (酸的) anyway.
S, which is it: greener grass r sur grapes? We did an experiment t determine
hw peple react t failure.
In the study, abut 1,200 participants (参加者) received either gd r pr
feedback (反馈) n the practice trial f a test. Half f them were tld that they had
perfrmed in the bttm 20 percent, while the ther half, in the tp 20 percent. They
were then asked t predict hw they wuld feel if they earned a high scre n the actual test.
The research results shwed that thse wh received pr feedback n the practice trial predicted that they wuld feel less happiness and less pride, cmpared t thse wh received strng feedback. Hwever, when they received a tp scre n the actual test later, they were just as happy as the ther half, and much happier than they had predicted befre. This suggests that the initial failure made peple undervalue hw gd it wuld feel t succeed in the future.
The questin thugh, is why failure makes us dwnplay ur future happiness. Accrding t Prfessr Jn Elster, peple dn’t always knw what they want, and ften change their wishes t match what appears within reach. When the utcme desn’t fit the ne they have f themselves, they prtect themselves by devaluing the gal—rather than devaluing self. In ther wrds, when persnal failure happens, ne way f prtecting ur psitive (积极的) sense f self is t refuse t accept the emtinal imprtance f future achievements.
Detachment (超脱) frm persnal gals can be useful, if it helps peple redirect
their attentin frm the impssible t better and mre achievable gals. Hwever, if the sur-grape effect kicks in t early and peple becme fearful f failure, they culd miss ut n the chance t try again and realize that what nce seemed impssible is nw within reach.
31. What des the stry The Fx and the Grapes suggest?
A. The utcme valuatin depends n what gal is set.
B. Difficulties result in a higher achievement expectatin.
C. Past perfrmance desn’t help predict future happiness.
D. Initial failure makes future success appear less attractive.
32. The wrd “dwnplay” in Paragraph 6 prbably means “______”.
A. undervalue B. better understand C. destry D. discver
33. What d we knw frm the passage?
A. The participants cared mre abut strng feedback.
B. The happier peple are thse wh predict less happiness.
C. The participants’ perfrmance failed t match their abilities.
D. Peple devalue the gal t keep a psitive view f themselves.
34. What is the writer trying t tell us?
A. Failure is the mther f success.
B. Detachment stps peple frm changing wishes.
C. The seemingly impssible is wrth trying smetimes.
D. The sur-grape effect pushes us t keep mving frward.

On the level f everyday usage a myth is a false stry r belief. A myth is smething that is nt crrect, but many peple believe. There are a lt f myths abut the human brain.
One f the biggest myths is that we nly use 10 percent f ur brains. The next part f the myth is that if we can learn t use the rest f ur brains, then we'll be much smarter. Peple say this all the time, but it's abslutely nt true! The truth is that althugh we dn't knw everything abut the human brain, we knw that each part f it has an imprtant functin (功能). Mdern scientists think the "10 percent myth" ridiculus (荒谬的).
The ther mst ppular myth is abut being "right brained" r "left brained". Accrding t this myth, peple wh use the right side f their brains are mre artistic and creative. Peple wh use the left side f their brains are better at math and science. This is as ppular as the 10 percent myth,and it's als wrng. In 2013, a study at an American university examined the right brain and left brain myth. Accrding t the study, we use bth sides f ur brains equally (相等地).
It's true that we use different parts f ur brains fr different things. We use ur left side fr language mre, and ur right side when we need t pay attentin. But there is n evidence (证据) that creative peple use the right side mre, r that scientific peple use the left side mre.
We've talked abut myths, s let's lk at a few interesting facts abut the brain. First f all, the brain feels n pain. Secnd, abut 75 percent f the brain is made f water. It's als the fattest rgan in yur bdy. Here's anther interesting fact abut the brain. Arund the time yu turn 18years ld, it stps grwing.
