The Chinese use a different character（汉字） for each word. People have to memorize about 600 characters before they can do even basic reading and writing. For foreigners, it's hard to memorize them. And the following chart shows the top 3 difficulties for foreigners while learning Chinese.

The long history and colorful culture of China attract many foreigners to learn Chinese. With the rapid development, China is staying ahead in many fields and is playing its role in the world.
Chinese is becoming a global （全球的） language and its popularity has risen around the world. Many countries set up Chinese courses in their schools.

The increase in popularity of Chinese has been surprising. 1031 people took Chinese language exams in 2001, and the number was 2062 last year, while 2561 people chose Spanish. It's predicted that studying Chinese in the UK could overtake （超过） Spanish in less than five years.
Just like the foreigners do, we also learn foreign languages. Different languages carry different cultures. So exchanges are necessary. By learning a foreign language, we not only have a useful tool of communicating, but experience a new culture, what's more important, learning a foreign language well will help us tell our own stories to the world. （1）Please translate the underlined sentence into English.

（5）1031. （It tells us） the increase in popularity of Chinese is surprising in the UK./Chinese is becoming more and more popular in the UK.

5．阅读下面短文，完成表格。
Do you have any difficulties while studying? In fact, to learn with success is not a very difficult task if you follow some basic rules. I hope they will help you study successfully.
All problems can be solved by working hard. It makes the fool wise, the poor rich, the weak strong. It makes a wonderful difference. In learning, a hard—working fool gets more than a lazy wise.
To set our heart on one thing at a time and give up all other thoughts is also a good way. Those who often change their subjects will never succeed. For this reason, while you are learning one subject, don't consider learning another one in order to be successful.
Constancy （持之以恒） makes a certain （必然）. On the other hand, inconstancy often results failure（失败）.If we study day after day, than is nothing that can not be achieved. We should remember a worthy saying \"'Constant dropping of water wears away a nonce\"
Besides, to be on time is another rule. It helps to achieve your dream. The habit of keeping certain hours is of very importance to successful learning. Work while you wok; play while you play. Every man will certainly become strong and wise as long as we does so. The title: ________ Work hard In learning, a lazy wise gets ________ a hard-working fool. Set our heart on While you are studying one subject, don't consider learning another one one thing Be constant ________ ________ you can be successful. Useless we study day after day, nothing ________. The habit of keeping certain hours makes you strong and wise. 【答案】 The way/ How to learn / study with success / successfully/ Successful learning…；less than；so that/ in order that；can be achieved；Be on time.
