Embroidery takes time and patience. It might take as long as a whole day to finish just 10 cm of embroidery.By the 1970s，Sichuan had as many as 5，000 embroiderers.But since modern machines can make cheaper embroidery products today，Shu embroidery was added to China's intangible cultural heritage list（非物质文化遗产名录） in 2006.

13．（8分）Robert Ballard liked to read about shipwrecks（遇难船） as he was just a little boy.He read a lot about the Titanic.Titanic was called "ship of dreams".It was the biggest passenger ship of its time.Its makers said it was "unsinkable"，but the great ship sank（沉没），" Robert Ballard says.
On August 31，1985，Ballard's dream came true.He found the wreck of the Titanic.The ship was in two main parts lying four kilometers under the sea.Using video cameras and an undersea robot，he found a child's shoes，a reminder of the many deaths that happened that night in 1912.
In 1986，Ballard visited the Titanic again.This time he reached the ship in a small submarine（潜水艇）.A deep﹣sea robot—a "swimming eyeball"—took photos inside the ship.When other people saw the photos，too.
When Ballard returned in 2004，he found the Titanic in very bad condition.Other explorers had taken away about 6，000 items，dishes，and shoes.Some even took pieces of the ship.They think these things should be moved to a safer place

14．（8分）If you're reading this right now，you are probably interested in learning English as a second language.But these days，fewer college students in the United States are studying foreign languages themselves.

One reason for this could be that students don't think mastering（掌握） a foreign language is practical.After the global financial crash （金融危机） of 2008（专业） that are "safer" for finding jobs.These include majors like business management and nursing.
Also，college students have more choices these days.There are many majors now，such as digital arts （数字艺术），students are less likely to choose foreign languages.
But failing to learn a second language could take away potential （潜在的） job chances for US students in the future.As countries within the global economy become more connected，they will need more foreign language speakers.

The main reason for using 11 digits is that we have the largest population in the world. （3） But as our population grew，there were not enough numbers for us to use. （4） Eleven digits can be used to make tens of billions of mobile phone numbers.That's enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China.What's more，mobile phone numbers can be recycled（循环利用）.
Usually，the service provider will reuse a canceled （注销的） number after three to six months.If you call a number that you haven't contacted for a long time（5） But their numbers always start with 0，so they cannot create as many numbers as we can.Countries like the United States，Australia and India use phone numbers with 10 digits.

C.So we began to use 11 digits starting from 1999.

14．（8分）If you're reading this right now，you are probably interested in learning English as a second language.But these days，fewer college students in the United States are studying foreign languages themselves.
The Modern Language Association （MLA） is a group in the US that tracks（跟踪） language studies.It has found that the number of US college students who were studying a foreign language dropped by 9 percent from 2013 to 2016.And the number is still smaller and smaller.
One reason for this could be that students don't think mastering（掌握） a foreign language is practical.After the global financial crash （金融危机） of 2008（专业） that are "safer" for finding jobs.These include majors like business management and nursing.
Also，college students have more choices these days.There are many majors now，such as digital arts （数字艺术），students are less likely to choose foreign languages.
But failing to learn a second language could take away potential （潜在的） job chances for US students in the future.As countries within the global economy become more connected，they will need more foreign language speakers.
"The reality of the 21st century job market is that Americans will be competing for a job …they will be compared to a multilingual candidate （掌握多种语言的候选人），" Clayton Lewis wrote for US News.
（1）What is the main idea of Paragraph 1？ C
A.Many people are learning English as a second language.
B.It's interesting to study English as a second language.
C.Fewer college students are learning foreign languages.
D.College students can't learn foreign languages by themselves.

B.The influence that the global financial crash has on Students' major choosing.
C.Digital arts is the popular choice among college students these years.
D.Language learning is not a "safe" major anymore.
（3）What can we infer（推断） according to the last two paragraphs？ D
A.Not being able to speak a second language is a failure.
B.It will be easy for Americans to find jobs in the future.
C.Countries all over the world are more connected now.
D.Mastering a second language is important.
（4）What's the best title of this passage？ C
A.Less Language Learning.
B.Language Learning Influences Jobs Getting.
C.Learning a Foreign Language.
D.The Importance of Choosing Majors.
【解答】（1）C.段落大意题。根据第一段But these days，在美国学习外语的大学生越来越少。故选C。
（2）A.段落大意题。根据第三段主题句"One reason for this could be that."和第四段主题句"Also。此外。现在有很多专业，这两段主要写越来越少的大学生学习外语的原因。
（3）D.推理判断题。根据最后两段"But failing to learn a second language could take ..The reality of the 21st century job market is that Americans will be compared for a job."可知这两段主要讲了如果不能掌握第二语言。随着各国在全球经济中的联系日益紧密。由此推断掌握第二语言很重要。
（4）C.抄题归纳题。根据But these days，在美国学习外语的大学生越来越少，college students have more choice these days."可知学习外语的大学生越来越少的原因之一可能是学生认为掌握一门外语是不实用的，大学生这些天有更多的选择。可知主要写越来越少的大学生学习外语的原因，可知本文主要描述了美国越来越少的人学习，并分析其原因，如果美国学生不学习第二语言，本文主要围绕学第二语言展开。故选C。

16．（10分）Have you ever counted the number of digits（数字） in your mobile phone number？Your number has 11 digits. （1） That's because China has the longest mobile phone numbers in the world.The 11 digits can be divided into three parts.（2） The first three numbers tell you which mobile phone service provider you are using.For example，135 is for CMCC，188 is for China Unicom.The fourth to the seventh digits tell you which region the number is registered（注册）（随机的）.

Usually，the service provider will reuse a canceled （注销的） number after three to six months.If you call a number that you haven't contacted for a long time（5） But their numbers always start with 0，so they cannot create as many numbers as we can.Countries like the United States，Australia and India use phone numbers with 10 digits.
