Sme peple say glbal English is n lnger just cntrlled by British r American English, but is running free and develping uniquely lcal frms. Can yu figure ut the fllwing terms?
“I like yur smile,but unlike yu put yur shes n my face.”This is a way f saying “Keep ff the grass.” Or “peple muntain,peple sea”, which
means“very crwded”.
These examples are what we call Chinglish.When it cmes t Chinglish, if all yu knw is“gd gd study,day day up”,yu will be cnsidered“ut man”.
Nwadays, mre Chinglish wrds have been created, fr example, a Chinese idim is translated as“smilence”, a cmbinatin by the English wrd smile and silence.
Chinglish usually ffers a humrus lk at misuses f the English
language in Chinese street signs, prducts, and advertising. They are favured by sme English speaking turists and visitrs. Dminic Swire has been living in Beijing fr a cuple f years. “I think many Chinese peple cmplain abut the Chinglish and badly translated English. But yu knw, smetimes fr us freigners, it’s actually quite charming t see them. I think if the translatins f English in China were all perfect, then smething wuld be lst frm Chinese culture.”
Hwever, Chinglish will prbably becme a“cultural relic”in the near future. Beijing has made a plan t imprve freign language services and crrect Chinglish within five years. “It is very ridiculus (荒唐的) t see Chinglish n the signs in sme scenic spts. And they are a kind f barrier fr cmmunicatin between Chinese and peple frm ther cuntries,” a Beijinger said.
Sme Chinese university experts side with Chinglish. They argue that English has absrbed elements frm ther languages such as French and Spanish in its grwth, and nw it’s Chinese’s turn.

B．The Chinese wrds which are difficult t translate.
C．The wrds cmbining English vcabulary and Chinese grammar.
D．The lcal wrds preventing freigners frm learning Chinese well.
9．What des “smilence” mst prbably mean?
A．Saying nthing but t smile.
B．Smiling withut being nticed.
C．Laughing at smebdy.
D．Knwing little abut speech.
10．What is Swire’s attitude t Chinglish?
A．It can shw the humur f Chinese.
B．It will attract mre freign turists.
C．It helps him t learn Chinese well.
D．It seems part f Chinese culture.
11．Why Chinglish is likely t becme a“cultural relic”in Beijing?
A．Because it has becme a unique bridge between Chinese and English.
B．Because Chinglish is a chance t enrich Chinese and English.
C．Because it imprves the understanding between Chinese and freigners.
D．Because Beijing is determined t get rid f Chinglish signs.

She fears that children wh d nt learn real interactins will cme t knw a wrld where perfect, shiny screens give them a false sense f
Intimacy withut risk. Hwever, they need t be able t gather themselves and knw wh they are. S smeday they can frm a relatinship with anther persn withut a panic f being alne. “If yu dn’t teach yur children t be alne, they will nly knw hw t be lnely,” she said.
