For each question or statement
16、there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice.36 To the professional linguist, there is no superiority of any language. Therefore, it is well-accepted in the field of linguistics that there exist no higher or lower grades among languages. People once thought of the la
17、nguages of backward groups as undeveloped forms of speech, consisting largely of rough and simple sounds. It is possible that language in general began as a series of simple sounds. But it is a fact established by the study of “backward“ languages that no spoken tongue answers that description. Most
18、 languages of “backward“ groups are extremely complex pieces of tool for the transfer of ideas. They “fall behind“ the western languages not in their sound pattern or grammatical structures but only in their vocabularies. The sound pattern or grammatical structures usually are fully adequate for all
19、 language needs. The vocabulary reflects the objects and activities known to their speakers.There are two things to be noted. Firstly, all languages seem to possess ways for vocabulary expansion. Vocabulary expands either by putting together its own words or by borrowing words from other languages.
20、Secondly, the “backward“ languages are different from ours. The objects and activities which require distinction are often surprisingly numerous and complicated. 36 What does the word “superiority“ (Line 1, Para.1) mean?（A）Being complete.（B） Being better.（C） Being large.（D）Being tiny.37 We can learn
21、 from the first paragraph that _.（A）some kind of languages may be better than others（B） we can not say one language is better than others（C） it is difficult to know which language is better than others（D）language contains some grades38 The languages of backward groups were regarded as underdeveloped
22、 because_.（A）their languages were difficult to understand（B） the history of their languages was not long（C） file sounds of their languages were very easy to understand（D）their languages mainly contained rough and simple sounds39 In the authors view, some languages “fall behind“ western languages in
23、the aspect of_.（A）their sound pattern（B） their grammatical structures（C） their vocabularies（D）their speakers40 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?（A）Language is to be viewed with ranks or grades.（B） Most languages of “backward“ groups are complex enough to express ideas.（C）
24、Generally languages are probably developed from simple sounds.（D）All languages seem to possess the system for vocabulary expansion.Task 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45.41 Hyperinflation (极度通货膨胀) is defined as an econom
25、ic condition during which there is steep increase in price.In accordance with the laws of economics, three factors combine to create this condition. Firstly, demand must be much greater than the supply of-available goods. Secondary, the country must continuously create and thereby build up an ever i
26、ncreasing supply of money. Thirdly, the govermnental processes that are used to collect taxes must be destroyed.Lets imagine a country where production is barely accomplishing its goal: to keep up with demand. When this happens, the govermnent should decrease the salaries of the workers by raising t
27、axes. But the government is powerless to collect the taxes, so it prints more money to make up for the goods it must purchase. This new money goes to the workers who produced the goods; as a result, the people are not forced to give up certain things for a while. They actually become richer. While t
28、his might appear to be a positive step, it is actually worse off. Every month the government is forced to print more and more money so as to increase the amount of goods it can purchase until it is destroyed. The only way to prevent total economic breakup in such a situation is for the government to
