unit 2 English around the world课文及翻译
the Road to Modern English At the end of the 16th century, about five to seven million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived in England. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer other parts of the world and because of that, English began to be spoken in many other countries. Today, more people speak English as their first, second or a foreign language than ever before. Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don’t speak the same kind of English. Look at this example: British Betty: Would you like to see my flat? American Amy: Yes. I’d like to come up to you apartment. So why has English changed over time? Actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and communicate with each other. At fist the English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was base more on German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually between about AD 800 and 1150, English became less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers enriched the English language and especially its vocabulary. So by the 1600’s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia too. English began to be spoken in both countries. Finally by the 19th century the language was settled. At that time two big changes in English spelling happened: first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The American Dictionary of the English language. The latter gave a separate identity to American English spelling. English now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia. For example, India has a very large number of fluent English speakers because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. During that time English became the language for government and education. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in Africa such as South Africa. Today the number of people learning English in China is increasing rapidly. In fact, China may have the largest number of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time will tell. 通向现代英语之路 16世纪末期大约有5百万至7百万人说英语,几乎所有这些人都生活在英国。后来,在17世纪英国人开始航海征服了世界其它地区。于是,许多别的国家开始说英语了。如今说英语的人比以往任何时候都多,他们有的是作为第一语言来说,有的是作为第二语言或外语。 以英语作为母语的人,即使他们所讲的语言不尽相同,也可以互相交流。请看以下例子: 英国人贝蒂:“请到我的公寓(flat)里来看看,好吗?” 美国人艾米:“好的。我很乐意到你的公寓(apartment)去。” 那么,英语在一段时间里为什么会起变化呢?事实上,当不同文化互相交流渗透时,所有的语言都会有所发展、有所变化。首先,在公元450年到1150年间,人们所说的英语跟今天所说的英语就很不一样。当时的英语更多地是以德语为基础的,而现代英语不是。然后,渐渐地,大约在公元800年到1150年期间,英语不那么象德语了,因为那时的英国的统治者起初讲丹麦语后来讲法语。这些新的定居者大大丰富了英语语言。在1620年,一些英国人搬迁到美洲定居。后来,到了18世纪,有些英国人也被送往澳大利亚,两个国家的人都开始说英语了。 最后,到19世纪,英语才真正定形。那时,英语在拼写上发生了两大变化:首先塞缪尔·约翰逊编写了词典,后来,诺尼韦伯斯特编纂了《美国英语词典》,后者体现了美国英语拼写的不同特色。 现在,英语在南亚也被当作外语或第二语言。比如说,印度拥有众多讲英语很流利的人,这是因为英国于1765年到1947年统治过印度。在那期间,英语成了官方语言和教育用语。在新加坡、马来西亚和非洲其它国家,比如南非,人们也说英语。目前在中国学习英语的人数正在迅速增长。事实上,中国可能拥有世界上最多的英语学习者。中国英语会发展出自己的特色吗?这只能用时间来回答了。 STANDARD ENGLISH AND DIALECTS What is standard English?Is it spoken in Britain,the US,Canada,Australia,India and New Zealang?Believe it or not ,there is no such thing as standard English.Many people believe the English spoken on TV and the radio is standard English.This is because in the early days of radio,those who reported the news were expected to speak excellent English.However,on TV and the radio you will hear differences in the way people speak. When people use words and expressions different from the “standard language”,it is called a dialect.American English has meny dialects,especially the midwestern,southern,African American and Spanish dialects.Even in some parts of the USA,two people from neighbouring towns speak a little differently.American English has so many dialects because people have come from all over the world. Geography also plays a part in making dialects.Some people who live in the mountains of the eastern USA speak with an older kind of English dialect.When Americans moved from one place to another,they took their dialects with them.So people from the mountains in the southeastern USA speak with almost the same dialect as people in the northwestern USA.The USA is a large country in which many different dialects are spoken.Although many Americans move a lot,they still recognize and understand each other’s dialects.

Unit 2 English around the world【单元导航】中国式英语欧洲人做过精细的统计,自1994年以来加入国际英语行列的词汇中,中式英语贡献了5%到20%,超过任何其他来源。
除“孔夫子(Confucious)”、“中国功夫(kung fu)”、“麻将(mahjong)”或者“豆腐(tofu)”之类绝无仅有的称谓,再挑拣几个真正有中国气质、代表华夏气派、并影响全球当代生活的“鸡蛋词”。
(一)丝绸——silk中国是养蚕大国,丝绸的故乡。
“silk”的发音,显然是汉语的音译,这个词代表了中国高超的工艺技术和贸易强势。
即便现在,丝绸仍在现代生活中充当雍容华丽、典雅高贵的象征。
(二)茶——tea这个词,又是英国人从拗口的闽南话里偷走的。
茶,和丝绸、瓷器比肩,堪称古代中国对外贸易的拳头产品。
目前,品茶代表了一种生活方式和文化品位。
18世纪的柴斯特顿勋爵在《训子家书》里写道:“尽管茶来自东方,它毕竟是绅士气味的;而可可则是个痞子、懦夫,一头粗野的猛兽。
”(三)世外桃源——Shangrila (Xanadu)这是两个近义词,都有“世外桃源”的意思。
“Shangrila”出自西藏的传说之地——香格里拉,“Xanadu”则是蒙古的元上都。
如果要表达“世外桃源”,通常采用“Xanadu”这个词。
(四)风水——Feng Shui风水,还是音译。
它凝聚了古代中国在活人住宅和死人墓地方面的集体智慧。
近年来,风水在美国红极一时,从中国人唇齿之间发出的音节,已经成为当代人急需探究的学问。
(五)走狗——running dogs中国式英语“running dogs”贴切地表达了一种见利忘义、供人驱使的“下三烂”。
最先运用这个词的是中国人,还是英国人,已无从考证;重要的是,英语世界接纳了“走狗”,并以汉语的思维抚育这个“外来词”。
接纳词汇的同时,无形中也接受了中国人的价值观。
(六)大款、巨亨——tycoon这种称呼是近些年才流行街巷的,指有钱、有势的商人或者企业家,中国传统的叫法是“大掌柜”。
