20、ages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts
21、 believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, tr

23、asingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only ar
24、ound 200 languages; the Americas about 1,000; Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already
25、 well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction (消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a questio

B. 推理判断题。本题的答案主要出自第一段,只要认真研读,进行简单的排除,答案不难选出。Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world h
29、ad just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.这句话是答案的出处。29. C.词义猜测题。词语出自第二段。Dominant这个词应该是比较常见的,只要考生平时注意词汇积累这个词应该能认识,所以我们在平时的英语学习中一定要注意词汇的积累。假如不认识的话,后边的例子中例举了English, Spanish and Chinese 还有词组take over 这些线索都可以帮助我们来猜测词义。30. B 推理判断题。答案出自第三段 The median number (中位数)
30、 of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.结合前面的At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. 这两句话就可以把答案推出来,6800 和half 是关键词。31.
