    A Debate on the English Language
    A measure declaring English the national language is under intense debate in the United States .The US Senate passed two declarations last week.One calls English the nation's official lan-guage and the other says it is the “common and unifying(统一的)”tongue. But Americans found themselves divided on the issue.
    Since people worldwide know that most Americans speak only English,many can't understand
    why the issue is so controversial(有争议的).
    “The discussion is related to fears of immigration issues,”says Dick Tucker,a social scientist at Pittsburgh's Carnegie Mellon University.“It's related to a worry about the changing demography (人口统计)of the US It's a worry about who will continue to have political and economic influence.”
    In fact,the notion of protecting the language has been kicked around almost since the nation's founding. John Adams lobbied(游说)in 1780 for the creation of a national academy to correct and improve the English language.But his proposal died,since lawmakers saw it as a roy-alist(保皇主义者)attempt to define personal behavior.
    Since then,the country hasn't had a national language,but the idea of recognizing the special status of English lived on.
    The emotions surrounding language resurface(再次浮现)not because people feel comfortable with English .It is more about the discomfort many Americans feel with the new languages,says Walt Wolfram,a professor at North Carolina State University.
    “Language is never about language,”he says.
    According to the 2000 US Census Bureau report,of 209 million Americans over 18 years old, 172 million speak only English at home.About 37 million speak languages other than English. Among them,6 .5 million speak poor English and 3 .1 million don't speak English at all.

    Which statement is true according to the 2000 US Census Bureau report?
    A: 172 million Americans speak only English in their workplaces.
    B: 37 million Americans speak English.
    C: 209 million Americans are above the age of 18.
    D: 6.5 million Americans speak good English.

    答案:C
    解析:
    本题问“两个宣言关切到什么?”文章的第一句话是这么说的:在美国,一个宣布英语是国语的措施正在经受着激烈的争论。然后文章说到美国参议院上周通过了两个宣言。一个宣言把英语叫做国家的官方语言;另一个宣言说英语是通用的、起统一作用的语言。可见这两个宣言涉及英语的地位问题,因此A项是正确的。


    本题问“谁在18世纪就建议英语应该得到保护?”第四段有这样一句话:John Adams lobbied in 1780 for the creation of a national academy to correct and improve the English language. 1780年John Adams曾游说建立一个国家研究院,致力于纠正并修改英语。可见正确的选择应该是John Adams。


    本题问“下面的哪一方面跟目前的争论无关?”第三段提到A、B和C,唯有D没有提到。D说的是“美国的军事力量”。


    本题问“根据2000年美国人口普查局的报告,哪个命题是真的?”最后一段话的第一个句子是这么说的:根据2000年美国人口普查局的报告,18岁以上美国人有两亿九百万人。所以C项是对的。其他选项都把两亿九百万人当作了美国的总人口,因而是错误的。


    本题问“kicked around最有可能被哪个词替换?”这个短语出现在下面这个句子中:In fact,the notion of protecting the language has been kicked around almost since the nation's founding.事实上,保护这一语言的思想几乎从这个国家建立时就开始讨论了。这个短语的意义可以从上下文中推出。
