Declining Interest in Developing Foreign Language Skills

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 decades ago, 40 percent had foreign language skills.

Professor Elise Tipton, from the University of Sydney, says increasingly students do not feel the need to learn another language to boost their career. She believes that Australia's 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 English with most of its trading partners. But as the world's 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 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 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 often weak. "While we're encouraged in high school to learn another language, it's 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 students 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 Australia's major exports go to Asia and the

Australian government has been keen on developing closer economic and diplomatic ties with Asia. Academics say that, as Asia becomes one of the world's 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 years ago？

A 70 percent.

B 13 percent,

C 40 percent

D 6.5 percent.

But the author of the report, Gyorgy Sziraczki, believes that the number of working hours in Asia has started to decline.

"It is very much welcomed, because it will give a better chance for workers and their families to enjoy the benefits of globalization and economic growth outside their job and also to have a more productive job with better working conditions, and one of the important aspects of better working conditions is the working time."

Several countries in the region have introduced five-day work weeks in recent years.

Part B Listening Comprehension

Directions: In this part of the test there will be some short talks and conversations. After each one, you will be asked some questions. The talks, conversations and questions will be spoken ONLY ONCE. Now listen carefully and choose the right answer to each question you have heard and write the letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.

听力原文：W: Well, it seems quite common actually. A lot of people in Australia now are travelling and taking time off. And when I was actually travelling, I met so many people doing the same thing.

M: Yeah, yeah, so where did you start off？

W: Well, I went to New Zealand first. Eh, and got a job in a computer company as a secretary. And I worked there for 4 months.

M: Really？ You can do that, can you？ I mean it's possible for anyone to get a job in New Zealand, without being a New Zealander？

W: No, not everybody, only Australians and New Zealanders can exchange either. You know you can work in either country.

M: Right, yeah.

W: That was easy. I worked there for 4 months and raised enough money for the rest of travels really. So from there I went to Indonesia, and travelled around the different islands around Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, China, Nepal and India.

M: What about Indonesia？ What did you do？ Did you fly mostly between the Islands？

W: Eh, I did a bit of that, and boats, mainly local boats between the Islands.

M: What about Singapore？ People said it's very very modern. But because it is so modern, it's rather boring. Did you find that？

W: Well, it's difficult to say really. It has different attractions. You know the Chinese, Malay, and Hindu communities are there. Each has his own culture and custom, very different from the others. And it's a great big shopping center and I really enjoy it from that point of view. And it was very clean.

M: And after, you said you went to Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and then China？ That's a great country to travel in, isn't it？

W: Eh, it was. Yeah, it was fabulous. It really was. You have been there then？

M: No, I haven't. No, I mean it's very big. What did you do？

W: Yeah. Well, I had only one month to travel in China, and that was too short for such a vast country as China. I felt I didn't have enough time, so I sacrificed a lot of places and did the main tourist throughout really. I went to Beijing, the capital, Kaifeng, Yinchuan, and Tibet.

M: Well, how exciting! You said after Beijing, you went to？

W: That was Kaifeng in the central China's Henan province. It's a charming city, and has got a lot to look around, like temples and pagodas, very traditional.

M: Eh, eh.

W: What fascinated me when I was there was that some Jews went to live in Kaifeng many years ago. As early as 16th century, there were Jewish families there. They have their synagogue and five books of Moses. Even today several hundred descendants of the original Jews still live in Kaifeng.

M: Really, I've never heard of that. And where did you go after Kaifeng？

W: I went to northwest to Yinchuan, the provincial city of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region.

M: Is this the place where there always is a shortage of water？

W: No, no, on the contrary, it has got abundant supply of water, because it is near the Yellow River. In this sense, Yinchuan has a favorable geographical position in otherwise harsh surroundings.

M: What did you see there then？

W: Ningxia was once the capital of Western Xia during the 11th century. So outside Yinchuan, you can still see the Western Xia mausoleum, where the Kings and their Kingdoms were buried. The tombs were scattered in a pretty big area at the foot of the Henan Mountain, and inside the city there are famous mosques in the architectural style. of Middle East. It's really a place worth visiting. You got to know something about Chinese Moslems.

听力原文： Most of us have an image of such a normal or standard English in pronunciation, and very commonly in Great Britain this is "Received Pronunciation", which is often associated with the public schools, Oxford, and the BBD. At the same time, it must be remembered that so far as the English-speaking countries are concerned, this "Received Pronunciation" approached the status of a "standard" almost only in England. Educated Scots, Irishmen, Americans, Australians, and others have their own different images of a standard form. of English.

Even in England it is difficult to speak of a standard in pronunciation. Pronunciation is infinitely variable, so that even given the will to adopt a single pronunciation, it would be difficult to achieve. There is no sure way of any two people saying the same word with precisely the same sound. In this respect pronunciation much more closely resembles handwriting than spelling. In spelling, there are absolute distinctions which can be learnt and imitated with complete precision: One can know at once whether a wont is spelt in a standard way or not. But two person' s handwritings and ciations may both be perfectly intelligible，yet have obvious differences without out being able to say which is“better”or more“standard”．

(33)

A．English pronunciation, spelling and handwriting.

B．The status of Received Pronunciation in the English-speaking countries.

C．The difficulty of achieving a standard in English pronunciation.

D．The importance of achieving a standard in English pronunciation.
