In 1947, the province Bengal of Pakistan was divided into two parts: the western part became India and the eastern part is known as East Bengal which was later known as East Pakistan. At that time there were many economic, social and cultural problems. In 1948, when government announced Urdu as the national language, it caused the protest among the Bengali speaking majority of Pakistan. The protest got out of control and ended with the death of four protestors of the University of Dhaka who were shot by the police on 21st February, 1952. The students’ deaths during the fight for their mother language are now remembered as The International Mother Language Day (IMLD).

Each year on Feb 21, UNESCO holds the event to draw attention to the disappearance of the world’s languages: dozens of them are disappearing each year. What happens when a language dies out? Something huge is lost -- not just sounds and marks but the way that people make sense of the world and communicate with each other. And it is through language that we have culture and tradition. Kill a language and all this is killed too.

Through IMLD, more people are becoming more aware of the destruction of linguistic (语言的) diversity in modern times and trying to stop it. The Myaamia Project is a kind of effort. This is an attempt to revive (复兴) the language spoken by the Miami and Illinois tribes (部落) of the US. Project members work to encourage people to study and communicate with this language, which formally died out in the 1960s.

This is why we should remember the wise words of Nelson Mandela: “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart.”

1.What can we know from the first paragraph?

A.Bengal had the biggest population in Pakistan.

B.The conflict resulted from linguistic controversy.

C.The Bengali were the majority who spoke Urdu.

D.The police shot four students to end the protest.

2.What message does Paragraph 2 mean to convey?

A.Dozens of languages die out every February.

B.The world is known merely through languages.

C.Language helps to preserve and promote culture.

D.Much attention has been paid to language protection.

3.What does the Myaamia Project aim to do?

A.Keep linguistic diversity. B.Protect an American tribe.

C.Raise money to help the locals. D.Focus on native language learning.

4.Why does the author mention Mandela’s words?

A.To show his contribution to language protection.

B.To stress the difficulty in learning a dying language.

C.To reflect the possibility to preserve a local language.

D.To emphasize the importance of one’s mother tongue.

After the popularity of the Ice Bucket Challenge, another challenge now is hot in India. Indians give rice to their poor neighbors for a charity (慈善), which is called “Rice Bucket Challenge”. 1._ It is about giving a bucket of rice to someone who is in need and taking a picture named “Rice Bucket Challenge” to share online. The aim of the activity is to help the poor and hungry people in India, and the movement's Facebook page has so far clocked up more than 50,000 likes. 2. The activity was started by Manju Latha Kalanidhi, a 38­year­old journalist, who thought the Ice Bucket Challenge was a little strange.

How to participate in this activity? First, pick up a bucket of rice from your home and give it to the neighboring people who are in need. 5. At last, invite online all your friends and ask them to take up the challenge. It is important to post back on Facebook because it will inspire all your friends to come forward.

My grandfather spent most of his life in a turbulent (动乱的) India. After settling in New York, he took up his true passion: gardening.

Grandfather’s garden was where I took refuge (避难) from a world of adults and schoolwork. My grandfather cultivated squash (南瓜) and tomatoes — it was not rare to find me somewhere in the garden, either secretly eating a tomato, or just sitting and admiring my grandfather’s hard work. However, as time went by, I did not have the chance to visit his house as often as I used to.

On my eleventh birthday, I received a gift bag wrapped in pretty paper from my grandfather. Excited to see what he had given to me for my birthday, I tore apart the paper only to find a yellow squash. I was very angry. What a stupid present!

But gradually, I realized that in my developing a relationship with his garden, I had unknowingly grown very close to my grandfather himself, something he wished to remind me of through his gift. His commitment towards doing things definitely influenced me. It could bring him a sense of accomplishment. Because of him, I try to model the idea of approaching everything with both drive and passion.

My grandfather passed away five years ago, but his influence on me could not be bigger than it is today. As I prepare to enter college and move on from my relatively sheltered high school life toward achieving complete independence, allowing my passions to find their way into whatever I may be doing will be very necessary. I still look up to my grandfather very much to this day, and I hope that one day I will be able to sow in my own garden, and give someone else a squash on his or her birthday — it was the most meaningful gift I have ever received.

1. When the author was young, she often visited the garden mainly to ______.

A. have a taste of her favorite vegetables

B. help her grandfather cultivate the garden

C. escape from the adults and schoolwork

D. admire her grandfather’s hard work

2. When the author saw the squash gift from her grandfather, she was ______.

A. excited　　 B. confused

C. curious　　 D. upset

3. Why did the grandfather send the author a squash?

A. Squash was the author’s favorite vegetable.

B. Squash was the greatest achievement of him.

C. He wanted to remind the author that they had been close.

D. He wanted the author to follow his career.

4. What’s the best title for the text?

A. A Special Gift — Yellow Squash

B. Grandfather and India

C. Life with Grandfather

D. Gardening and Life
