PART FOUR WRITING
SECTION A
Directions: Read the following passage．Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
The Chilean earthquake, measuring 8.8-magnitude, which struck early Saturday morning, released 500 times the energy of the 7.0-magnitude quake that hit Haiti (海地)last month, a geophysicist told CBS’ “The Early Show”．Tsunami warnings were issued for much of the Pacific, including Hawaii, following the quake that struck near the Chilean coast．
"When the earthquake occurred, it moved the land and then it moved the water causing the tsunami," said U.S．Geological Survey geophysicist Jessica Sigala．"And the coastal areas of Chile have already noticed the wave heights up to about 7 feet."
Sigala said Hawaiians can expect to see the waves from this tsunami around 11:20 a.m．local time (about 4:20 p.m．ET)．"So we have to wait and see how big the waves will be."
"It"s not so much the height [of the wave] but it"s the width, it"s how long it lasts, and then it"s also the speed at which it"s traveling," said co-anchor Kelly Cobiella．"Correct me if I"m wrong, but these waves are traveling at the speed of a jetliner, about 500 miles per hour?"
"That"s correct．It"s a big block of water coming onto the land," Sigala said．
Chile has also experienced several aftershocks following the quake．
"Aftershocks are definitely another concern," said Sigala．"We always see aftershocks with a large q
uake and a shallow quake．Unfortunately, this one was both．And as of right now, we"ve located about maybe 15 aftershocks and those are of the larger kind．I"m sure they felt much more than that．"A shallow earthquake just means that it happened pretty close to the surface," said Sigala．"And because of that the energy is really close to the surface, where all the buildings and people are."
50 deaths caused by aftershocks have been reported, according to the national emergency agency, adding the estimated casualties to 960.

第三部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
English is fast becoming the language of science around the world, but what is its future among everyday speakers? One expert points out that the percentage(比率) of native English speakers is declining(降低) globally while the languages of other rapidly growing regions are being spoken by increasing numbers of people. But English will continue to remain widespread and important.
However, British language scholar David Graddol says English will
probably drop in dominance(主导) by the middle of this century to rank, after Chinese, about equally with Arabic, Hindi, and Urdu. “The number of people speaking English as a first language continues to rise, but it isn’t rising nearly as fast as the numbers of many other languages around the world, simply because the main population group has been largely in the less developed countries where languages other than English have been spoken,” he sa
ys.In a recent article in the journal Science, Mr. Graddol noted that three languages that are not near the top of the list of the most widely spoken now might be there soon. These are Bengali, Tamil, and Malay, spoken in south and Southeast Asia.
David Crystal, the author of the Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language, says about 1.5 billion of the world’s six billion people speak it as a second tongue compared to the 400 million native speakers. But another expert on the English language says Mr. Graddol underestimates (低估) the future of its dominance
. “Nobody quite knows what’s going to happen because no language has been in this position before. But all the evidence (证据) suggests that the English language snowball is rolling down a hill and is getting faster,” he said. 56. In David Graddol’s opinion, English will _______.
A. remain widespread and important
B. be more important than any other language
C. lose its dominant position
D. die away in the near future
57. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies that ______.
A. snowballs will roll down faster than language balls
B. the English language snowball is rolling down faster than any time in the past
C. English language will soon drop in dominance
D. more and more language users will choose English
58. How many experts does the passage mention who express their ideas about the future of English?
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5.
59. What should be the best title for the passage?
A. English Remaining the Dominant Position
B. The Future of English? Who Knows?
C. Opinions from Different Experts
D. The English Language Snowball Rolling Down
