听力原文： Esperanto was invented as an international language one hundred years ago by a doctor in Poland. His name was Ludovic Zamenhof. Doctor Zamenhof grew up in a part of Poland where people spoke several different languages. He believed the different languages kept people from understanding each other and living peacefully together. He wished that everyone in his part of Poland spoke the same language. In fact, he believed that if everyone spoke a common language, peace could result throughout the world. That is why he gave the world a new language. He called it "Esperanto", which means, in his language "one who hopes."
Doctor Zamenhof tried to make Esperanto so easy that anyone could learn it in one-hundred hours. It is easy to learn because it has only sixteen grammatical rules. Doctor Zamenhof's alphabet is also simple. Each letter has only one sound.
No one knows exactly how many people in the world speak Esperanto. Experts say the number could be as many as fifteen million. For most of the world's people, however, English, not Esperanto, is the second language. But Esperantists continue to spread the world about their language. They hope that Esperanto someday will become the international language for trade, science, and diplomacy.
(26)
A．Different languages prevented people from living peacefully together.
B．Because he believed that people would prefer a new language.
C．Because he believed that people would favor an easy language.
D．Because he thought that his mother tongue was too difficult to learn.
By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto is spoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.
Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious. Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role.
Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______.
A.all people will be able to speak a common language
B.people will learn a foreign language better
C.people can understand each other better
D.people will be able to speak several languages
Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A.he wanted people to learn it quickly
B.he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn it
C.he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficulty
D.he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language
Which of the following is NOT true of English？A.It is widely taught in schools.
B.It has become a second language for many millions of people.
C.Many books have been written in English.
D.It is less popular than Esperanto.
What is the best title of the passage？A.The language made by one man.
B.A talk about the world language.
C.English as a second language for everyone.
D.Esperanto—a better language than English.

Adventures in Foreign Languages
It could reasonably be argued that, for those of us who live in the USA and speak English as our native tongue, there is very little motivation to learn a foreign language. We can travel for thousands of miles and still be surrounded by native English speakers. We can easily spend our entire lives without having any real need to speak another language. It is even possible to comfortably visit many tourist destinations around the globe, speaking only English. Clearly, learning a foreign language is a nonessential skill in our society.
Benefits in learning a foreign language
Nevertheless, learning a foreign language offers several possible benefits. Some of the commonly stated benefits are:
Fosters a feeling of international community, by promoting an awareness of other cultures and countries.
Enriches our understanding of our own language, by bringing grammatical structures and word roots into sharper focus. This may be especially true when studying languages that share linguistic elements with English.
The study of linguistics, and learning to think and speak in another language, offers its own intrinsic pleasures and rewards. Language can be fun.
Opens up the possibilities of reading non-English literature.
Expands global travel opportunities.
Linguistic adventure
I think these are good reasons, so I wanted to provide my children with some exposure to foreign languages. But what language should I teach？ What language am I qualified to teach？ I took four years of French in high school(and got straight A's), but I never reached any real level of fluency, and I have retained very little of the small amount of French I once knew. Is there any language that I could realistically learn/teach alongside my children？ I'd like to tell you about our linguistic adventures, and where we ended up.
After a bit of research, I settled on Spanish for our tint foray into foreign languages. But how should I teach it, given that I don't know Spanish myself？ I know of one family who hired a full-time Spanish nanny to communicate to the children only in Spanish. It worked very effectively for them, but this was not an option for my family.
Another option would be to take my children once a week to a private instructor. Many families find this to be the most practical way to learn a foreign language. Yet I have also heard many families complain that their children have learned surprisingly little from such classes. Perhaps they have learned a bit of vocabulary(colon, parts of the body, numbers, etc.), but they are still unable to express themselves in the second language, or construct any sentences beyond a few drilled-in, rehearsed phrases.
Deciding on Esperanto
So I went back to the drawing board and did some more web research, looking for a language, or method that would allow us to discover some of the joy that can come from learning a foreign language. By sheer luck, I stumbled across a little-known language, and within just a few hours of reading about it, I knew it was exactly what I was looking for! The language was Esperanto.
When I tell people that we're learning Esperanto, I usually get some strange looks. But that's okay. When I tell people we home school, I often get strange looks as well; I'm used to doing things that are outside of the mainstream. And as with home schooling, it can be very difficult to sum up in a couple of sentences all the reasons why it's so worthwhile, particularly to someone who may already have preconceptions to the contrary.
Why is Esperanto unique？
So for those of you who know very little about Esperanto, I hope you'll indulge me for a moment. I would like to explain some of the features that make it such a unique language,
A．Y
B．N
C．NG
