16、e in danger of disappearing. Every two weeks one language disappears. W: So fast? M: Yes, so Mr. Harrison and Mr. Anderson are heading Living Tongues, an organization to study and protect endangered languages. W: Why do these languages disappear? M: Sometimes a language disappears immediately when t

17、he last person speaking it dies. Or, a local language might disappear more slowly. This happens when an official language is used more often and children stop learning the local language of their parents. This is not a new process. Official languages often represent a form of control over a group of

18、 people. W: Can you explain it a bit further? M: Throughout history, the language spoken by a powerful group spreads across a civilization. The more powerful culture rarely respects the language and culture of smaller ethnic groups. So, smaller cultures lose their local language as the language of t

19、he culture in power becomes the stronger influence. W: I can see your point now. M: The Internet could be thought of as a new method of language control. The United Nations cultural organization, UNESCO, says that ninety percent of the worlds languages are not represented on the Internet. W: I guess

20、 we do need to protect these languages. M: Experts say protecting languages is very important for many reasons. Languages contain the histories, ideas and knowledge of a culture.

23、for five years. M: Five years? Wow! Isnt it a bit dangerous? I heard that a 21-year-old college student lost his life when climbing the cliff the other day. W: Yes, it does happen from time to time, most often by people who just try when they are not yet ready for any risk. M: Are there any climbing

24、 clubs for freshmen to join? W: Yes, for sure. But you need time to pick out the best one. Nowadays, too many of these climbing clubs are too eager to initiate trips without checking properly the skill levels of the climbers. M: Well, as a veteran, what experience do you think you can share with oth

And now there are 50.All of this progress is because of you. And weve got so much more to do. So my New Years re

42、solution is to move forward on our unfinished business as much as I can. And Ill be more frequently asking for your help. Thats especially true for one piece of unfinished business. Thats our epidemic of gun violence. This Friday, Ill be thinking about my friend Gabby Giffords, five years into her r

43、ecovery from the shooting in Tucson. And all across America, survivors of gun violence and those who lost a child, a parent, a spouse to gun violence are forced to mark such awful anniversaries every single day. We know that we cant stop every act of violence. But what if we tried to stop even one?

44、What if Congress did something-anything-to protect our kids from gun violence? A few months ago, I directed my team at the White House to look into any new actions I can take to help reduce gun violence.

And of course the more I flew the more I came to love to fly. And then, almost inevitably, I became a travel

49、writer so my job and my joy could become one. As you all know, one of the first things you learn when you travel is that nowhere is magical unless you can bring the right eyes to it. You take an angry man to the Himalayas, he just starts complaining about the food. And I found that the best way that I could develop more attentive and more appreciative eyes was, oddly, by going nowhere, just by sitting still. And of course sitting still is how many of us get what we most crave and need in our accelerated lives, a break. But it was also the only way that I could
