第四部分 任務型閱讀（滿分10分）請認真閱讀下列短文，并根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰當?shù)膯卧~．注意：每空格1個單詞．

• 31．As adult learners，our very motivation for learning English can sometimes discourage our progress because we are focusing too much on the end result．But the informal way in which children learn English-through music，games and fun activities-offers an environment in which they can learn and practise without worrying about the importance of it all．In turn，this relaxed attitude gives them confidence in learning English，setting them up for more opportunities in their academic pursuits and career options further down the line．Research has shown the positive impact bilingualism（雙語能力）has on a child's cognitive（認知的）development and Catherine Ford，head teacher of Moreton First Prep School，says that children should begin learning as young as age three： "before children become self-conscious they can try out their newly acquired languages without fear of embarrassment"．
      According to Tas Viglatzis，there were more than 4.5 million students studying overseas in 2012．He also refers to the importance of having the right level of English skills to apply for universities in popular destinations such as the US，UK and Australia．Learning from a young age provides a foundation to build upon，and gives your child the confidence to learn more complex English skills specific to their academic goals at university．Traditional English teaching has been known to focus heavily on reading，writing and grammar skills-studying abroad is one of the best ways to absorb yourself in an English speaking culture to develop your speaking and listening skills．
      Tas Viglatzis credits his successful career to learning English at an early age． "English is the lingua franca（通用語）of business；so learning it has opened up many opportunities for me．If I hadn't learnt it，I'd have followed a very different path；limiting myself to regional roles rather than global ones．" Being the most widely used language in business globally，the opportunities that come with having English as a second language are a strong motivator for any student looking to have a role in a global company．Bilingualism is becoming increasingly beneficial when job hunting and can make you more attractive in terms of employability．Bilinguals may not always be paid more，but they often are and they are frequently hired over monolinguals（單一語言）with similar qualifications．
      The benefits your children are given by learning English at a young age are invaluable and as they go through life，the possibilities for advancements in their academic and business careers will be wide open．Children are lucky enough to have intuitive（直覺的）language learning capabilities from a young age，and this is certainly something to take advantage of．

第五部分 書面表達（滿分25分）請閱讀下面文字，并按照要求用英語寫一篇150詞左右的文章．

• 32．Editor's note：China is the top country of origin for international students in the US，with more than 274，000 Chinese students reportedly accounting for 31 percent of all international students at US universities．Many Chinese parents save up a lot of money for their children to pursue an overseas education．Is it worth spending big to study abroad？You are welcome to leave your comments．
     Arsa（Russia）：I went to study abroad when I was 17．First year was a total waste as I met plenty of Russian students in my collage and we spent most of our time shopping and hanging out at cafes．It wasn't until two years later that I realized that my English hadn't improved．I changed my mindset entirely and started studying hard．I ended up staying in UK for 10 years，which opened a lot of doors and introduced me to great people，so I'm all for studying abroad．
     Truth（US）：There is an assumption that American education is the best in the word，so Chinese parents are pushing their kids to American collages．And some are even sending their children overseas at junior or high school level．I often think this is a mistake as the education a Chinese child gets in a foreign country is very different from what they are used to and they often struggle Some students have trouble understanding their lecturers and their assignments keep coming back with poor scores．
