Question

The world's richest man might seem to have it all，but Bill Gates has one regret．The self-made
billionaire said he felt stupid for not knowing any foreign languages．
Speaking in his third Ask Me Anything question-and-answer session for online forum Reddit（红迪网），the Microsoft founder said that he wished he spoke French，Arabic or Chinese．
He said，"I took Latin and Greek in high school and got As and I guess it helps my vocabulary．I keep hoping to get time to study one of these-probably French because it is the easiest．I did Duolingo for a while but didn't keep it up．"
Gates，who is worth  79.3 billion，praised Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for surprising an audience in Beijing when he spoke fluent Chinese．"Mark Zuckerberg amazingly learned Chinese and did a Q & A with Chinese students-unbelievable，isn't it？"he said．
    This isn't the first time for Gates to admit his regret over language．He also showed his habits at home and personal insights．
    Last February，Gates said he likes to do the dishes himself-to his own special standards every night and also told the interviewer that his wife，Melinda，would likely want Samuel L．Jackson to play her husband in a biopic（传记片）．
As he took the top spot on Forbes（福布斯） 28th Annual Billionaires list last year for the fourth time，he said he is pretty basic when it comes to spending on clothes and food，but that he enjoys investing（投资） in shoes and rackets（球拍） when he plays tennis．
When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way，the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break．"Don't stay up too late even if the book is really exciting．You will regret it in the morning．Pam still working on this problem，"he said．

Answer 1

28．C 理解推断题，由第八段he said he is pretty basic when it comes to so end ingon clothes and food，but that he enjoys investing in shoes and racquets（球拍）when he plays tennis．比尔说的话中可以知道他并没有花费很多钱在他的衣服和食物上，故选C．
29．C 细节理解题，由最后一段the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break．"Don't stay up too late even if the book is really exciting．You will regret it in the morning．可知他给我们的建议是不要熬夜，故选C．
30．C 理解推断题，由第三段He said："I took Latin and Greek in high school and got A's and I guess it helps my vocabulary．可知比尔盖茨在高中的时候很擅长学习语言，因此C正确，误解分析：由第三段Gates，who is worth 79.3billion，praised Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for surprising an audience in Beijing when he spoke fluent Chinese．"可知盖茨不是Facebook的创始人，故A错；由第七段As he took the top spot on Forbes（福布斯）28th Annual Billionaires list last year for the fourth time，可知盖茨是第四次登上福布斯榜，不是第二十八次，故B错；由第六段Melinda，would likely want Samuel L．Jackson to play her husband in a biopic（传记片）．可知盖茨的妻子并不是想要Samuel跟盖茨玩游戏，故D错；故选C．
