The world’s native languages are dying out at an unprecedented (空前的) rate, taking with them irreplaceable knowledge about the natural world, according to a new study.
The study identified five global “hot spots” where languages are vanishing faster than anywhere else —— eastern Siberia, northern Australia, central South America, the US state of Oklahoma and the US Pacific Northwest. “Languages are suffering a global extinction crisis that greatly goes beyond the pace of species extinction,” linguistics (语言学的) professor David Harrison noted, who said half of the world’s 7, 000 languages were expected to disappear before the end of the century.
Native people had an intimate (详尽的) knowledge of their environment that was lost when their language disappeared, along with other certain things often unfamiliar to us, Harrison stressed. “Most of what we know about species and ecosystems is not written down anywhere, it’s only in people’s heads,” he said. “We are seeing in front of our eyes the loss of the human knowledge base.”
Harrison was one of a team of linguists who carried out the study. The researchers travelled to Australia this year to study native languages, some of the most endangered. According to Harrison, in Australia, they were heartened to see a woman in her 80s who was one of the only three remaining speakers of the Yawuru language passing on her knowledge to schoolchildren. He said such inter-generational exchanges were the only way native languages could survive. “The children had elected to take this course, no one forced them,” he said. “When we asked them why they were learning it, they said, ‘This is a dying language, we need to learn it’.” Also, while there they found a man with knowledge of the Amurdag language, which had previously been thought extinct.
The researchers said all five of the hot spots identified were areas that had been successfully colonized (殖民) and where a dominant language such as Spanish or English was threatening native tongues.
21. The underlined word “vanishing” in the second paragraph can be best replaced by ______.
A. developing B. changing C. increasing D. disappearing
22. According to Harrison, language extinction ______.
A. causes the researchers lots of worries
B. speeds up the pace of species extinction
C. threatens the existing of Spanish and English
D. brings about a loss of knowledge about the environment
23. Which of the following can be described as good news?
A. Native languages became less endangered in Australia.
B. A man was found with knowledge of the Amurdag language.
C. Researchers were well received by native people in Australia.
D. Many schoolchildren showed interest in the Yawuru language.
24. According to the text, native languages were endangered partly because of ______.
A. few researches done on them
B. the small population of native people
C. the strong influence of ruling languages
D. little education native people receive at school
B
Very mobile ears help many animals direct their attention to the rustle of a possible attacker. Researchers say these mobile ears have become a useful communication tool. Their studies of animal behaviour build up a picture of how communication and social skills developed.
“We’re interested in how they communicate,” said lead researcher Jennifer Wathan. “And being sensitive to what another individual is thinking is a fundamental skill from which other more complex skills develop.”
Ms. Wathan and her colleague Prof Karen McComb set up a behavioural experiment where 72 individual horses had to use visual clues from another horse in order to choose where to feed. They led each horse to a point where it had to select one of two buckets. On a wall behind this Decision-making spot was a life-sized photograph of a horse’s head facing either to left or right. In some of the trials the horses’ ears or eyes were covered.
If the ears and eyes of the horse in the picture were visible the horses being tested would choose the bucket towards which its gaze and its ears were directed. If the horse in the picture had either its eyes or its ears covered, the horse being tested would just choose a feed bucket at random.
Like many mammals that are hunted by predators (捕食者), horses can rotate (旋转) their ears through almost 180 degrees——but Ms. Wathan said that in our “human-centric” view of the world, we had overlooked the importance of these very mobile ears in animal communication.
“It seems there’s something in the visual clues——from both the eyes and the ears——that are really important she told BBC News. “Horses have quite rich social lives and relationships with other horses, so they’re a good species to look at this in.” And the more we look at communication across different species, the more we can consider what might have promoted the evolution of sophisticated communication and social skills.
25. Why does a horse rotate its ears?
A. To tell each other where they can go for the buckets.
B. To be curious about what the other horse is thinking.
C. To warn the other horse when an attacker is coming closer.
D. To express its hope to build up social relations with others.
26. Why did the researchers use the life-sized photograph of a horse in the experiment?
A. To help develop horses’ complex skills.
B. To lead other horses to feed themselves.
C. To make the horses in the experiment excited.
D. To provide clues for the horses in the experiment.
27. Why are ears and eyes important to horses?
A. They can find the feeding buckets more easily with ears and eyes.
B. With ears and eyes they can escape from dangers more easily.
C. With ears and eyes they can communicate with other horses.
D. Horses have quite rich social lives with ears and eyes.
28. What can be the best title of the passage?
A. Rotary Ears Serve as Communication Tools
B. Horses Have More Social Skills than Other Species
C. Experiments with Horses’ Ears
D. Fundamental Skills of Horses
