Clayton Dube is the head of the U．S.China Institute at the University of Southern California. He praises Zuckerberg's effort and thinks more American CEOs should learn foreign __4__ (language)．

　　“To speak Chinese __5__ (mean) you begin to think as Chinese people do. You begin to understand how Chinese speakers have the world __6__ (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 __7__ 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 __8__ (large) economy.

　　The study of __9__ Chinese language is increasing in the United States and around the world. In 2009, about 60,000

　　__10__ (America) college students were studying Chinese. That is three times as many as in 1990.

　　语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过Facebook创始人用汉语与中国学生对话并得到南加州大学美中学院院长的赞扬这件事情，提出了一个问题：汉语是否会成为未来的世界性语言？

　　1．recently　根据句意可知，Facebook创始人Mark Zuckerberg最近用汉语同中国学生对话，这让他们大吃一惊。句中需要用recent的副词形式修饰动词surprised。故填recently。
