阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题或完成句子。

There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world. But only a few of them are very important. English is one of them. Many, many people use it, not only in England and the USA, but also in other parts of the world.

About 200,000,000 people speak it as their own language. It is difficult to say how many people are learning it as a foreign language. Many millions of people are trying to do so. Is it easy or difficult to learn English? Different people may have different answers. Have you ever noticed ads(广告) of this kind in the newspapers or magazines? “Learn English in six weeks, or give your money back…” “Easy and funny…” “Our records and tapes help you master English in a month”. Of course, it never happens quite like that.

The only language that seems easy to learn is the mother tongue. We should remember that we all learned our own language well when we were children. If we could learn English in the same way, it would not seem so difficult. Think of what a small child does. He listens to what people say. He tries what he hears.

So it is hard to say that learning English is easy. We must do a lot of practice. And practice needs great efforts and takes much time. Good teachers, record, tapes, books, and dictionaries will be helpful, but they cannot do the student’s work for him.

1.___of languages are very important in the world.

2.Which countries use English as the mother tongue?(至少两个例子)

__________________________________________________________

3.What does the writer think of the ads in the newspapers or magazines?

_________________________________________________________

4.___is easy to learn.

5.If we want to learn English well, we must do ___.

阅读下面的材料，根据其内容填空，完成后面的表格。

There are many simple things you can do to help save animals.

Think twice before you decide

What you eat for meals can stop the killing of animals. Why not try a vegetarian (素食的) diet? If you aren’t ready to make such change, there are still things you can do. Don’t buy meat coming from wild animals any more. And you can encourage your family members and friends to follow you.

Help get the word out

Getting the word out about the problems faced by animals can be as easy as putting up a notice (布告) on your car. Also, talk to your friends and family members about the importance of saving animals. Turn to some books on the subject if you are not so clear about the advice you give to your friends.

Write a letter

The pen is stronger than the sword (剑). Put this idea to the protection of animals. If a company (公司) hurts animals, write them a letter to let them know you’re angry, and that you won’t buy their products until they make some changes. Write letters to the government if it is necessary.

Let your actions be examples to others

It may sound simple, but one of the best ways to help animals is to let your actions speak to the world. You should do the following things first by yourself: Treat animals kindly. Care about your pets and look after them well. Avoid (避免) places that use animals to perform.
