答案(9)
How did English Become a Global Language
1.The rise of English is a remarkable tale as Professor David Crystal reminds us in his attractive,
short book "English has a Global language."
2. It is certainly quite a theme. When Julius Caesar landed in Britain more than 2,000 years ago, English did not exist. Five hundred years later, English, virtually incomprehensible to modern ears, was probably spoken by about as few people as currently speak Cherokee, the language of a small North American Indian tribe-and with little influence. About 1,000 years later, at the end of the 16th century, and after the Norman Conquest, the Reformation and the arrival of commercial printing technology, English was the native speech of between 5 million and 7 million people. And yet now look at it. As the second millennium
approaches, English is more widely scattered, more widely spoken and written than any other language has never been. In the title of the book, it has become a truly global language. According to David Crystal, about 2.09 billion people, well over one-third of the world s population are routinely exposed to it.
3. As he rightly points out, what is impressive about this staggering figure is: "not so much the grand total but the speed with which expansion has taken place since the 1950 s. In 1950, the case for English as a world language would have been no more than plausible. Fifty years on and the case is virtually won. "
4. So what happened?考试大(www．Examda。com)
5. Someone once said that a language is a dialect with an army and a navy. In other words, when the British navy set out to conquer the world, is set out an "army" of English speakers. As the British empire a spread throughout the world, English became the basis of law, commerce and education. The British empire was succeed by
another(the American), which shared virtually the same linguistic heritage. American English, which has become the rocket-fuel of the English language, has magically found its way into areas undreamed of 40, let alone 400 years ago.
6 The most valuable part of Crystal s study is the section devoted to a speedy analysis of the cultural basis of this global reach, notably the influence of broadcasting, press, advertising, popular music and film. He is also up-to-date and informative in his identification of the World-Wide-Web as a powerful reinforcer of American cultural and linguistic dominance.
7. One of his most interesting passages concerns the role played by the League of Nations, and later the Untied Nations, in spreading English as an international language in the aftermath of the two world wars.
8. What does the future hold? To this question, Crystal proposes the recognition of a new form of English-WSSE(world standard Spoken English)-which almost by definition rules out the possibility that
English would fragment into mutually unintelligible language as Latin once did. "English, in some shape or form, will find itself in the service of the world community forever," Crystal writes.

7. The two international organizations founded
after the two world a wars made their
contributions____.
8. Crystal expresses the belief that in the future ____ will not happen to English.
A because of their similarity
B that we would not be able to understand it at all
C to the popularization of English as a world language
D the trend to become a global language
E what once happened to Latin

2020年职称英语综合类C级概括大意历年真题及解析2020年真题 Interview with Allan Gray (1)I was working for a multinational company in the early 1980s, and my brother asked me if I was interested in going into partnership with him to set up a language school. I'd always wanted to work for myself, and I was a bit fed up with working for someone else, so I said yes. Primarily, I wanted the freedom to make my own decisions, I wanted room to be creative, and also I wanted to be able to get the credit and keep the profits if we were successful. I was also happy to carry the can and take the blame if things went wrong. These things are not possible if you work as an employee in a large organization. (2) I had to borrow money to help start the business, but we were lucky because we also had some outside capital to put into the business. These days it can be really hard to persuade banks to lend money to people who want to start a company, so we were fortunate. It was fairly easy to set up the business, because we had a very clear idea of what we wanted to do. The problem was, all our preconceptions ( 预想 ) about what it would be like to run a business were wrong. We made lots of mistakes, and we almost went bankrupt (破 产的 ) at the beginning. At one point, we only had two students in the school. (3) Far too long! We lost money for the first four years and, as I was saying, we nearly went out of business. It took

职称英语等级考试试题-综合
职称英语等级考试试题-综合A6 第三篇Play Play is the principal business of childhood, and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy, every child needs opportunity and the right materials for play, and the main tools of play are toys. Their main function is to suggest, encourage and assist play. To succeed in this they must be good toys, which children will play with often, and will come back to again and again. Therefore it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child’s development. In recent years research on infant development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach, within the range of his inherited abilities, is largely determined in the first three years of his life. So a baby’s ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated. A baby who is encouraged and stimulated, talked to and shown things and played with, has the best chance of growing up successfully. In the next stage, from three to five years old, curiosity knows no bounds. Every type of suitable toy should be made available to the child, for trying out, experimenting and learning, for discovering his own particular ability. Bricks and jigsaws（七巧板）and construction toys; painting, scribbling(涂鸦) and making things; sand and water play; toys for imaginative and pretending play; the first social games for learning to play and get on with others. Bt the third stage of play development-from five to seven or eight years-the child is at school. But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning, at home or at school. It is easier to see which type of toys the chills most enjoys.

It is true that all of us need recreation. We cannot work all the time if we are going to maintain good health and enjoy life.

2019年职称英语考试综合教材概括大意第一篇 Voice Your Opinion：Change Is Needed in Youth Sports Everywhere you look,you see kids bouncing a basketball or waving a tennis racquet （网球拍）.And these kids are getting younger and younger.In some countries,children can compete on basketball,baseball,and volleyball teams starting at age nine.（46） And swimming and gymnastics classes begin at age four,to prepare children for competition. It's true that a few of these kids will develop into highly skilled athletes and may even become members of the national Olympic teams.（47） This emphasis on competition in sports is having serious negative effects. Children who get involved in competitive sports at a young age often grow tired of their sport.Many parents pressure their kids to choose one sport and devote all their time to it.（48） But 66 percent of the young athletes wanted to play more than one sport-for fun. Another problem is the pressure imposed by over-competitive parents and coaches.Children are not naturally competitive.In fact,a recent study by Paulo David found that most children don't even understand the idea of competition until they are seven years old.（49）The third,and biggest,problem for young athletes is the lack of time to do their homework,have fun,be with friends—in short,time to be kids.When they are forced to spend every afternoon at sports practice,they often start to hate their chosen sport.A searchers found that 70 percent of kids who take part in competitive sports before the of
