People need new words for new ideas and new inventions. Different words come into use, or old words are used in a new way.English can be changed by borrowing words from other languages. The word "tomato" was borrowed from Mexico and "tea"came from China and so on. Now new space and science words are being borrowed from other countries, too. New words are formed by adding two words together. "Countryside" and "earthquake" are made up of two parts. Sometimes new words are shorter forms of old words. The word "photo" was made from "photograph" by cutting off the end of the longer word. "Plane" was made by cutting off the front part of "airplane". The names of people and products can become new words, too. Our "sandwich" was named after a man called Sandwich and "sello tape"(透明胶带) was a name given by the company that first made the product.（16）New English words are needed because _____.    A．people use old words in a new wayB．the population is bigger nowC．the old words are not enoughD．new ideas and new inventions appear all the time（17）Which of the following words was taken to English from another country?   A．Plane. B．Sandwich. C．Tomato. D．Countryside.（18）Which of the following words came from China?   A．Tea. B．Earthquake.  C．Airplane. D．Sello tape.（19）How many ways of developing English words does the passage tell us?   A．Three. B．Four. C．Five. D．Six.（20）The main idea of this passage is _____.    A．that the English language is always changingB．that there are new ideas in England todayC．how people name new products and inventionsD．how people use old words in a new wayC Nobody knows how many different languages there are in the world. The most widely used language is English. It's used by business people, airline pilots all over the world. It's also the first language of sports and science. So it's very important for us to learn English.English is most widely spoken in the world, while Chinese has the largest number of speakers. There are not only over one billion people living in China, but also many Chinese people living outside of China. You can find large or small groups of Chinese people living in almost every country in the world.There are some other important languages in the world, too. Chinese is of course very important, especially in Asia. Arbic is widely spoken in many parts of Asia and Africa. Russian is spoken both in Europe and Asia. French is widely understand, not only in Europe, but also in parts of Canada, Africa and Asia, Spanish has a growing number of speakers all over the world, especially in Central and South Africa.What language do people speak in the United Nations? There are so many different languages in the world, but they decide to use only six of them. There are Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, and Spanish.

If you can, you are unusual. Suppose what your life was like during the first few months. I'm sure that it took your most time to eat, sleep and cry. As you grew older you slept less. Your parents would spend more time playing with you and talking to you. You watched and listened. You got to know that people make some sounds to go with some things.Then you began to cry and to make sounds you heard. And little by little you could make right sound for one thing.Then you got to understand the secret of the language. It is that a certain sound means a certain thing. One sound could be as good as another. But it is not so good as a word if everybody doesn't agree on its meaning. Only when a group of people make and use the same set of sounds of things they can understand each other. Their own language comes into being.After you knew the "secret" you learned words. Some of the words meant things such as cars, books, birds and stores. Some of the words meant movements such as come, fly and swim. And other words express things such as "I would like to make friends with you." This is language that people can communicate by the way of language. That is to say, languages mean communication.（26）         can remember the day when we spoke out first word.   A．Few of us B．Many people C．Most people D．Someone（27）When you were a little baby you        .   A．made sound to let people know that you want to eatB．spent most of your time eating, crying and sleepingC．could not hear any sound around youD．spent most of your time playing with your parents（28）The secret of language is that        .   A．one sound might be as good as anotherB．a certain sound is for a certain thingC．people can understand each otherD．there is a special sound for each other（29）The phrase "make sounds" mean         .   A．制造声音 B．发音 C．哭闹 D．表达（30）The best title of this passage is         .   A．The Language B．Learn LanguageC．Make Sounds D．The Secret of Language三、完成句子。（10分）根据所给中文完成句子，每空一词。每空1分。（31）他不擅长汉语，但能把自己的意思表达清楚。He isn't good at Chinese, but he can 　     　　        　　           　.（32）我明天早晨要和你一起飞往美国。I 　     　　     　　     　 the U.S.A. with you tomorrow morning.（33）狗是人类忠实的好朋友。Dogs are 　         　　     　 honest and good friends of humans.（34）他在诗中把那姑娘比作月亮。He 　         　 the girl 　     　 the moon in the poem.（35）我在作业里犯了很多错误。I have 　     　 many 　         　 in my homework.四、综合填空。（每空1分，共计10分。）When we have a （36）            with someone, we may be using more body language than words. （37）           , the same body language may mean （38）           things in different countries. That's why people sometimes do not understand each other （39）       . Pointing to one part of the body can mean differently in different cultures. For example, in the USA people point to their （40）           when they think someone is clever. However, in Europe it means “He or she is stupid or something is wrong with his or her head”. In our Chinese （41）          , nodding our head up and down means “yes” and shaking our head from side to side means “no”. However, in parts of India, Greece and Turkey, it means just the （42）          . In England or the USA, when you raise your hand and make a circle with the （43）           and the second finger, it means “You're all right or （44）            is OK”. However, if we do this in France or Belgium, it means “You're worth zero”. In Greece or Turkey, we should not make this gesture. Or we are thought （45）        be very rude.五、书面表达（15分）46.假如你是王平，请根据下面的内容提示给你加拿大的笔友Bob写一封电子邮件，向他介绍一下你是如何学习英语的以及你在学习中的困惑，请求他给你提出建议。词数：70以上。邮件的开头已给出，但不计入总词数。 内容提示：⑴你不敢和同学们一起学英语，也害怕在课堂上讲英语，总是在晚上自己学习；⑵费了很大的劲，却记不住单词；⑶经常听录音，但听不懂。Dear Bob,I write to you to ask for some good advice on learning English.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________                      答案：（1）B；（2）A；（3）C；（4）D；（5）D；（6）B；（7）C；（8）D；（9）B；（10）A（11）D（12）B（13）D（14）D（15）C（16）D（17）C（18）A（19）B（20）A（21）B（22）B（23）B（24）C（25）A（26）A（27）B（28）B（29）B（30）D（31）make；himself；understood（32）am；flying；to（33）regarded；as（34）compared；to（35）made；mistakes（36）conversation（37）However（38）different（39）correctly（40）heads（41） culture（42） opposite（43）thumb（44）everything（45）to（46）Dear Bob, I write to you to ask for some good advice on learning English.
