Blameless

I was a freshman in college when I met the Whites . They were completely different from my own family , yet I felt at home with them immediately . Jane White and I became friends at school , and her family welcomed me like a Ion g-lost cous in.

In my family , it was always important to place blame when anything bad happened .

“ Who did this* ” my mother would scream about a dirty kitchen .

“ This is all your fault, Katharine , ” my father would insist when the cat got out or the dishwasher broke . From the time we were lithe , my sister , brothers and I told on each other. We set a place for blame at the dinner table .

But the Whites did n't worry about who had done what . They picked up the pieces and moved on with their lives . The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died .

In July, the White sisters and I decided to take a car trip from their home in Florida to New York . The two older sisters , Sarah and Jane were college students , and the youngest , Amy , had recently turned sixteen . Proud of having a new driver's license （驾照）,Amy was excited about practici ng her drivi ng on the trip . She showed off her lice nse to every one she met .

The bin sisters shared the driving of Sarah's new car during the first part of the trip . but when they reached less crowded areas, they let Amy take over. Somewhere in South Carolina , we pulled off the highway to eat . After lunch , Amy got behind the wheel . She came to a crossroads with a stop sig n . Whether she was n ervous or just did n't see the sig n no one would ever know , but Amy continued into the crossroads without stopping . The driver of a large truck , unable to stop in time , an into our car.

Jane was killed immediately .

I was slightly injured . The most difficult thing that rve ever done was to call the Whites to tell them about the accident and that Jane had died . Painful as it was for me to lose a good friend , I knew that it was far worse for them to lose a child .

When Mr . and Mrs . White arrived at the hospital , they found their two daughters sharing a room. Sarah had a few cuts on the head ： Amy's leg was broken. They hugged （拥抱）us all and cried tears of sadness and of joy at seeing their daughters . They wiped away the girls' tears and made a few

jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches （拐杖）.

I was astonished. No blame . No accusations .

The first tape recorder didn't use tape ．It used long thin wire ．It was invented in 1900 by Valdermar Poulsen．In 1930，German scientists invented the tape we use today. Back then the tape was on big rolls ．In 1964 the Philips company in Holland invented the cassette ．It's pretty much a holder for the tape．People use cassettes all over the world．If you don't have a cassette recorder，borrow one．Think of a book your parents read out loud to you ．That might be a great book to read out loud to your mom or dad in their car. Put a cassette in the recorder ，open the book，hit the record button and start reading out loud.

Remember there is no such a thing as a wrong way to do this ．You might think you've made a

mistake，but this gift is part of you ，and nothing about that can be a mistake．It's impossible You get to be all artistic and creative here ．You might want to play music in he background ．Do whatever you want．The gift is you ，so you decide. Remember to say “I love you ”at the end of your reading. That's like the prize at the end of the book.

63．Choose the right order that shows the development of the tape recorder. a．Using big rolls ．

b．Using cassettes．

A. a，b，c

B. b，c，a

C. c，a，b

D. c，b，a

English as a Foreign Language

Who taught you to speak English ？Your parents，while you were a young child ？Your teachers at school？Perhaps even the BBC as a grown-up ．Whoever it was ，somehow you have developed an understanding of what is rapidly becoming a truly global language ．

There are now about 376 million people who speak English as their first language ，and about the same number who have learnt it in addition to their mother tongue ．There are said to be one billion people learning English now and about 80 ％of the information on the Internet is in English ．Is this a good thing ，or a bad thing ？Should we celebrate the fact that more and more of us can com muni cate, using a com mon Ian guage, across coun tries and cultures (文化)？Or should we worry about the dangers of ‘-mcoulntuoralism ，a'world in which we all speak the same language ，

eat the same food and listen to the same music？

Does it matter if an increasing number of people speak the same language ？On the contrary (相反)，I would have thought-although I have never accepted the argument that if only we all understood each other better，there would be fewer wars ．Ask the people of India(where many of them speak at least some English) and Pakistan (the same situation with India ) …

If we all speak English ，will we then all start eating McDonalds burgers ？Surely not. If English becomes more dominant( 占主导地位的)，it will kill other languages ？I doubt it ．When I travel in Africa or Asia ，I am always surprised by how many people can speak not only their own language but often one or more other related languages ，as well as English and perhaps some French or German as well．

When we discussed this on Talking Point a couple of years ago ，we received a wonderfully poetic email from a listener in Ireland ．“The English language is a beauftui l language．Maybe it's like a rose，” he sai．d “But who would ever want their garden just full of roses？”

Well, I love roses. and I think they make a beautiful addition to any garden ．But the way I see it，just by planting a few roses ，you don't necessarily need to pull out everything else ．If more and more people want to plant English roses ，that's fine by me．

67. By saying “Ask the people of India … a n (d Pi naPk iasrt a gn ra p h”4 ) ，the author is trying to

show that ______ _ .

A. speak ing the same Ian guage does n't n ecessarily bring peace
