Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent

times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still

populated by hunter-gatherers

，

small

，

tightly knit(

联系

)groups developed their

own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe

that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they

spoke perhaps 12, 000 languages between them.

Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers,

and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent

centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and

the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and

better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages

to disappear, and ____ languages such as English

，

Spanish and Chinese are

increasingly taking over.

At present, the world has about 6, 800 languages. The distribution of these

languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively

few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot wet zones have lots,

often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the

Americas about 1, 000; Africa 2, 400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200,

of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over median number(

中

位数

) of speakers is mere 6,000, which that half the world's languages are

spoken by fewer people than that.

Already well over 400 of the total of 6, 800 languages are close to extinction

(

消亡

), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in

Cameroon

（

eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache

in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a

question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.

28. What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?

A. They developed very fast

B. They were large in number

C. They had similar patterns

D. They were closely connected

29. Which of the following best explains

？

A. Complex

B. .Advanced

C. Powerful.

D. Modern

30. How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present

？

A. About 6,800

B. About 3,400

C. About 2,400

D. About 1,200

31. What is the main idea of the text

？

A. New languages will be created.

B. People's lifestyles are reflected in languages.

C. Human development results in fewer languages.

D. Geography determines language evolution.

We may think we

re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first

sight of something shiny and new, but a new study shows that we keep using our

old devices (

装置

)well after they go out of style. That

’

s bad news for the

environment- and our wallets - as these outdated devices consume much more

energy than the newer ones that do the same things.

To figure out how much power these devices are using, Callie Babbitt and her

colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the

environmental costs for each product throughout its life - from when its

minerals are mined to when we stop using the device. This method provided a

readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early s were

grouped by generation. Desktop computers

，

basic mobile phones, and box-set TVs

defined 1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in WP3 players,

smart phones, and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002

，

before tablets and e-readers

showed up in 2007.

As we accumulated more devices, however, we didn't throw out our old ones.

said one

researcher. The average number of electronic devices rose from four per

household in 1992 to 13 in 2007. We

’

re not just keeping these old devices - We

continue to use them. According to the analysis of Babbitt's team, old desktop

monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their

energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions (

) more

than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window.

So what' s the solution(

解决方案

)? The team' s data only went up to2007

，

but

the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old

products with new electronics that serve more than one function, such as a

tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They found that more on-demand

entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut

energy consumption by 44%.

32. What does the author think of new devices?

A. They are environment- friendly.

B. They are no better than the old.

C. They cost more to use at home.

D. They go out of style quickly.

33. Why did Babbitt's team conduct the research?

A. To reduce the cost of minerals.

B. To test the life cycle of a product.

C. To update consumers on new technology.

D. To find out electricity consumption of the devices.

34. Which of the following uses the least energy?

A. The box-set TV.

B. The tablet.

C. The LCD TV.

D. The desktop computer.

35. What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices?

A. Stop using them

B. Take them apart

C. Upgrade them.
