Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg  61 (recent)surprised Chinese students when he spoke to 62   in Chinese．In a talk at Tsinghua University in Beijing，Zuckerberg spoke Chinese for about 30 minutes．63 his Chinese was far from perfect，students and teachers cheered his effort．

C1ayton Dube is the head of the US--China Institute at the University of Southern California．He praises Zuckerberg’s effort and thinks more American CEOs should learn foreign  64 (1anguage)．

“To speak Chinese  65  (mean)you begin to think as Chinese people do．You begin to understand how Chinese speakers have their thoughts  66  (organize)，and how they understand things．And that is a vital step if you’re going to be culturally qualified.”

Zuckerberg’s talk raises a larger question：Is Chinese the language of the future? Could it replace English 67   the world’s international language? Chinese already has the most native speakers of any language．And，China may soon pass the United States as the world’s  68   (1arge)economy．

The study of  69   Chinese language is increasing in the United States and around the  world．In 2009，about 60，000  70   (America)college students were studying Chinese．That is three times as many as in 1990．

If you are a man living in China and smoke, you may want to stop. That   61  （be）because one in three of all the young men in China will die from smoking cigarettes   62   other tobacco（烟草）products.

Researchers reported their findings in The Lancet medical journal.

The report says, “About two-thirds of young Chinese men become cigarette   63   (smoke), and most start before they are 20 years old. Unless they   64  （stop）, about half of them will be killed by   65   (they) habit in the end.”

The researchers conducted two large, countrywide studies on the health effects of smoking. The first study took place in   66   1990s and involved about 250,000 men. The   67   (two) study was carried out only recently and is continuing. This study involves about 500,000 adults, both men and women.

Researchers say that in China, the number of deaths each year resulting from tobacco use

  68   (rise) from about one-million in 2010 to two-million in 2030. They warn that the number will rise to three-million by 2050.

     Lake Titicaca, a famous lake in South America,       61      (locate) on the border between  Bolivia and  Peru. But the lives of the ancient people who once lived around the lake and      62       culture was thought to be      63      （high） advanced, have long remained a secret. Recently      64      , scientists taking part in an exploration project at the lake have found      65      ​ they believe to be a 1000-year-old temple under the water.

       Divers from the study group have discovered      66      building scientists think is the remains of a temple built by the people who once lived beside the lake. The project leaders hope to begin raising important materials from the site later this week      67       bad weather forces a change in their plans.

       "The scientists have not yet had the opportunity to study the materials carefully," said project director, John Aubi. "But some      68      (put) forward the idea that the remains date from this period because of their      69      (similar) to those found elsewhere."

       The research team has so far this year made more than 200 dives into water 30 metres deep. During these dives, they have been recording the ancient remains on film. There will be a meeting,     70       (start) later this year to review the film.
