2 . Earth is home to around 7 ， 000 languages ， around half of which are expected to disappear by 2100．

Languages disappear for many reasons． Sometimes younger generations stop learning a language because   parents   want children   to fit in．    1     Native American children of the late﹣l9th century were required to attend boarding schools where educators forbade them from speaking   their native languages．

The United   Nations   ranks endangered   languages   according   to their   risk   level．For   example ，   a " critically endangered " language is one that even grandparents don ' t speak often． New York ' s Onondaga language is an example with only 50   speakers left．   An " extinct"   language   has no speakers． It is gone forever． Alaska 's Eyak language is one example．    2    

    3     In the same way ， different languages contribute to cultural diversity． Saving these languages benefits our understanding   of other cultures． Languages   can show how a society looks at the world and what it values． A language may describe something in a way that is funny ， too． In   Welsh ， it rains not cats and dogs ， but old wives and walking sticks．

The Endangered   Language   Alliance wants to save languages from disappearing．    4     However ， its efforts are limited． If an endangered language is going to make a real comeback ， it '11probably get its start in schools． For nearly 100 years ， public schools in Hawaii did not teach the Hawaiian language． Now students can keep learning in Hawaiian   from elementary   schools to college and beyond．

    5     At least one did． In 1881 ， a Jewish linguist named Eliezer Ben﹣Yehuda brought the 3 ，000﹣year﹣old language Hebrew back to life． Today it is one of   the   official   languages of   the country of Israel， with more than 4million speakers．

A．The last person who spoke it died in 2008．

B．Why should we save endangered languages

C．Various animals and plants benefit our environment．

D．With just 5 speakers left ， it is absolutely endangered．

E．Can a language with zero native speakers come back to life

F．Sometimes   societies force minorities   to give up their language．

G．The non﹣profit group finds native speakers and records their stories．

7 . Winter solstice(冬至), an important solar term in the traditional Chinese calendar, as the name implies, means the coming of winter. It generally occurs between December 21st and 23rd. According to the traditional Chinese calendar, one year is divided into twenty-four solar terms. On this day, in the Northern Hemisphere the period of daytime is the shortest of the year and the period of night is the longest.

In Northern China there is a custom of eating dumplings during winter solstice. The tradition of eating dumplings during winter solstice has its origin in early times. It is said that dumplings were invented by Zhang Zhongjing, a well-known doctor from the Eastern-Han Dynasty.

One winter, he noticed that many people’s ears were frozen, which made him sad. In order to prevent and cure the freezing injury caused by the cold, he asked his followers to boil mutton, chilies and other ingredients with medicinal properties in a pot for fending off cold. After these were boiled, they ladled(舀取) the mutton and other ingredients out of the pot, cut them into pieces, and then wrapped them with dough skins in the shape of ears. Afterward, they put these into pots to boil again.

On the day of the winter solstice, the people whose ears were frozen were sent to eat the dumplings. People who ate it felt warm from head to toe and had their cold injury healed. Thereafter, every winter solstice people ate dumplings. Then there became a saying that if you eat dumplings during the winter solstice, then you won’t freeze your ears off.

Afterwards, Zhang Zhongjing died on the day of winter solstice. In order to honor him, every year on the day of the winter solstice every household makes dumplings.

8 . Perhaps you have heard the expression “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” So when you want to do business in France, you have to get to know French culture, make marketing plans, and run your business by local laws.

    1     The French take great pride in their language, so anyone who does not speak it may run the risk of being disrespected by his French colleagues or business partners. Also, another reason why learning French is important is that it is a great way to show every possible French business partner that you care and respect their country's culture and language.

The first thing that you should do when meeting someone new is to shake his hand firmly and always look at the person in the eye. In social meetings with friends, kissing is common.

Use first names only after being invited to.     2     The French will sometimes introduce themselves using their surname first, followed by their first name.

Dress well.     3     Your business clothing is a reflection of your success and social status. Always try to be tasteful and stylish. Women are advised to dress simply but elegantly. Wearing make­up is practiced widely by businesswomen.

The French are passionate about food, so lunches are common in doing business in France, which usually consist of an appetizer, a main meal with wine, cheese, dessert and coffee, and normally take up to two hours.     4    

Do not begin eating until the host says “bon appetite”. Pass dishes to the left, keep wrists above the table and try to eat everything on the plate.     5     This may suggest that you find the food tasteless. If eating in a restaurant, the person who makes an invitation always pays.

A．Remember to be as polite as possible.

B．This is a time for relationship building.

C．Use Monsieur or Madame before the surname.

D．Be careful with adding salt, pepper or sauces to your food.

E．Make an appointment with your business partner in advance.

F．The French draw information about people based on their appearance.

G．Language should be the focus of anyone planning to do business in France.
