T: Do you have any difficulties with the text？S: Could you please explain the sentence to us: But it has also led to lots of American words and structures passing into British English, so that some people now believe that British English will disappear.T: We can understand it like this: Lots of American words and structures have been brought in with the help of the non-stop communication, so some people are worried that British English will disappear. This sentence implies that American English is simpler and the US is much more influential. So American English is more popular. Just like the Chinese language, more and more people are learning Chinese, because our country is becoming stronger and stronger. Maybe in the future Chinese will become many countries’ official language. Do you have any other questions Ss: No. Students listening to the tape andunderline the difficult sentences. 让学生明确文章中的难点。
