第3题

The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English "You speak very good

English." But the student answered, "No, no. My English is very poor." the foreigner was quite surprised at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, "Yes indeed, you speak English very well." But the Chinese student still kept saying "No. "In the end the foreigner gave up and was at a loss what to say. What's wrong with the student's answer？ It is because he did not accept a compliment＜赞美的话＞as the English people do. He should have said "Thank you" instead of "no". He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If he said "Thank you", that would mean he was too proud. According to the western culture, if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say "Thank you". If someone says to a woman "You look so beautiful with the new clothes on", she should be very happy and answer "Thank you". In our country we think being modest is a virtue and showing off a bad thing. But in the west, if you are modest and say" No, I'm afraid I can't do it well", then the others will take it for granted that you really cannot do it. If you often say "no", you will certainly be looked down upon by others. If asking for a job, one says something like "Let me have a try on the job" instead of "Yes, I can certainly do it," he or she will never expect to get it. So in the west one should always be confident. Without self-confidence, he cannot go anywhere. Confidence is of great importance to one in a country where competition is quite keen.

Why was the American surprised at the Chinese student's answer？

A．Because he wondered whether the student could really speak good English.

B．Because he could hardly hear what the student had said.

C．Because he wouldn't like others to say "No".

D．Because the way to accept a compliment in China is not the same as that in the western countries.

For more than 600 years people have complained that youngsters cannot write proper English

anymore. Two universal truths emerge: languages are always changing, and older people always worry that the young are not taking proper care of the language. The problem is that conservatism works differently on writing than it does on speech. Writing is more permanent, so people choose their words carefully and conservatively. It is slow and considered, so people can avoid new usages widely seen as mistakes. It is taught carefully by adults to children, which naturally has some conservative influence on the written language. And it is often edited, so a young journalist with a casual style. may well be edited to a more traditional one by an older editor. Speech is different: instead of permanent, slow, considered and taught, it is impermanent, fast, and learned naturally by children from their surroundings. Speech will— at almost any level of language conservatism—change faster than written language. In this imperfect world, then, written language only partly reflects speech. Younger writers introduce spoken or new words or usages into their writing, annoying their elders as they do. But no one dare to be casual in spelling: English-speakers are stuck with an ancient system. Liberties with grammar—making the written language look like the spoken one— should be few and cautious. Giving the written language a little room to change, but not too much, is the only way to enjoy the best of both stability and vitality. The alternative— perfectly conservative writing—will make writing less and less like the language future generations will speak, and thus less relevant to writing about the world they live in.

It can be learned from Paragraph 1 that older people worry that______.

A．youngsters have too many complaints

B．spoken language is changing too fast

C．their English is not as good as before

D．youngsters are careless with language use
