任务型阅读(二)。根据其内容简略回答问题。Canada Geese are large blue and white birds. When autumn comes, they have to fly south where the weather is warmer. The winters are so cold in Canada that the birds will die if they stay there.
Last spring, Bill Lishman found sixteen young Canada Geese on his farm. They had lost their parents. Bill thought, “These young birds won’t know what to do in the autumn.” He had a small plane and he decided to teach the birds to fly by following him. All through the summer, he went on short trips in his plane and the young geese flew after him.
When the cold weather arrived in the autumn, Bill flew to Virginia in the United States------600 miles South of his home in Canada. The geese followed him all the way. Bill left the geese in Virginia and he returned home.
This spring, Bill was waiting for the birds to come back. They didn't arrive, so Bill flew to Virginia to get them. He looked for them for two weeks but he couldn't find them. When he arrived back home, he found the geese waiting for him. They had found their way home without him!

Perhaps you’ve seen the English letters “WC” in your city. They show public toilets. But do
you know it is far from elegant (优雅的) English? In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countries rarely use the letters.
Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps.
“WC, or water closet, is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me,” says Charlie Shifflet, a young man from the US. The old sign will become “Gents/Men” and “Ladies/Women”.
“I see lots of poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs,” he says. “I know what they mean. But they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me ‘My hometown is Henan Province’, I know he should say: ‘My hometown is in Henan Province’. ‘Hometown’ is a smaller place in a province.” The common mistakes he picked up include “Not Entry”, which should be “No Entry”, “Direction of Airport” should be changed to “To the Airport”. And it is “room rate”, not “room price”. And remember to “Keep off the grass”, rather than “Care of the green”.
1.What does the writer think of the use of “WC”?
A. He doesn’t think it means water closet.
B. He doesn’t think it old-fashioned English.
C. He doesn’t think it proper for a sign.
D. He thinks it elegant English.
2.The underlined word “rarely” means ________.
A. sometimes B. seldom C. often D. always
3.Charlie Shifflet ___________.
A. is a Chinese living in America
B. thinks Chinese people are sometimes using incorrect English
C. likes to hear or see Chinglish
D. sometimes uses Chinglish
4.Which of the following signs does NOT use Chinglish?
