36、 Australians foreign language skills are declining, Voice of America has reported. New figures show that only 13 percent of high school graduates can speak a foreign language. But four decade ago, 40 percent had foreign language skills. Professor Elise Tipton, from the University of Sydney, says inc

37、reasingly students do not feel the need to learn another language to boost their career. She believes that Australias economic boom, which is driven by red-hot demand for its minerals, is helping mask serious deficiencies (缺陷 ) in its language skills. Australia does business very successfully in Eng

38、lish with most of its trading partners. But as the worlds economic power shifts to emerging regions such as Asia, its language gap could soon be exposed. According to the new figures, less than 6.5 percent of high school graduates are proficient in an Asian language. Academics worry that this means

39、Australia will increasingly be isolated from its economically important Asian neighbors, Dilip Dutta, from the economics and business faculty at Sydney University, says language skills can enhance trading opportunities. If Australians want to trade with Asian countries, it is very important for them

40、 to learn the language that will help them to get closer to the culture. But students have different opinions about Asian language learning. Pippa McCowage, a 22-year-old Australian student, says many young Australians have a half-hearted approach to foreign languages, and the language curriculum is

41、 often weak. “While were encouraged in high school to learn another language, its not really apparent to me as a realistic expectation that you will have to speak it,“ said McCowage. “For example, I learned Japanese in high school. When I went on an exchange in Year 10,I found that the Japanese stud

42、ents of my age had a much greater proficiency in English than I did in Japanese. So in that sense, it almost discourages you.“ At present, about 70 percent of Australias major exports go to Asia and the Australian government has been keen on developing closer economic and diplomatic ties with Asia.

43、Academics say that, as Asia becomes one of the worlds economic powerhouses (经济体 ), Australia needs to improve its language skills if it is to take full advantage of the business opportunities on its doorstep. 36 What percentage of high school graduates were proficient in foreign languages forty year

44、s ago? （ A） 70 percent. （ B） 13 percent. （ C） 40 percent. （ D） 65 percent. 37 What can be inferred from paragraph 2? （ A） Australia has rich deposits of minerals. （ B） Australia is essentially a self-sufficient country. （ C） Australia has no intention to trade with Asian countries. （ D） Australian s

45、tudents are not required to learn a foreign language. 38 What does Dilip Dutta think language skills can do? （ A） Improve your relation with your partner. （ B） Help settle international conflicts. （ C） Remove barriers in negotiations. （ D） Increase trading opportunities. 39 Why has the Australian go

46、vernment been keenly interested in strengthening ties with Asia? （ A） Because Asia is where Australia is located. （ B） Because Asia is where Australias major exports go. （ C） Because Asia is where Australians go and spend their holidays. （ D） Because Asia is where Australia can play a big role in in

47、ternational affairs. 40 The word “faculty“ in paragraph 3 could be best replaced by （ A） office. （ B） building. （ C） university. （ D） department. 40 Youth Emancipation in Spain The Spanish Government is so worried about the number of young adults still living with their parents that it has decided t

48、o help them leave the nest. Around 55 percent of people aged 18-34 in Spain still sleep in their parents home, says the latest report from the countrys state-run Institute of Youth. To coax(劝诱 )young people from their homes, the Institute started a “Youth Emancipation(解放 )“ programme this month. The

49、 programme offers guidance in finding rooms and jobs. Economists blame young peoples family dependence on the precarious labour market and increasing housing prices. Housing prices have risen 17 percent a year since 2000. Cultural reasons also contribute to the problem, say sociologists(社会学家 ). Family ties in south Europe Italy, Portugal and Greece are stronger than those in middle and north Europe, said Spanish sociologist Almudena
