5. Read the passage and choose the correct answer.
English was once spoken only by people in a part of Britain. But during the twentieth century, it became a world language—a language used by speakers of many different languages to communicate with each other.
Although it is called a “world language”, more than five billion people—most of the people on the earth—do not speak English as either their first or second language. ⑤ However, hundreds of millions of people use it, and hundreds of millions are learning it.
Because so many people learn and use English, it may be hard to imagine that one day English may not be the world’s leading language. Remember that there were other important languages in the past which lost their importance or even disappeared. In Europe, Latin was used as a common language for many centuries before people stopped using it. French was once a language known by all well -educated people, and was more popular than English. But since the nineteenth century, English has become more popular than French.
Today, many people who want to learn a new language are learning Chinese, Spanish or Arabic. It may be that, one day, instead of English, another language will be used across the world.

Presenter: Now talk!
Speaker 1: It’s easy to find books, CDs and online courses to practise English, but I want to talk to a native English speaker. I went to England and I got lots of practice talking to people. Then I came home. I quickly lost my new skills because I didn’t have anyone to talk to.
Speaker 2: I speak English every week. I use Now talk! It’s a website that helps you use and remember your spoken English. This is how Now talk! works.
Speaker 3: We meet on the Internet and have an English conversation, which lasts for one hour, once a week, for four weeks. Although it’s not a private course, we get a lot of speaking practice because there are only four students for one teacher. We use Skype. It’s an Internet programme you can use to talk to anyone in the world.
Presenter: Call Now talk! for more information.

Around the world
An invented language
Since the twelfth century, people have been inventing languages, in the hope that a world language would ease human communication. Only one of these invented languages has enjoyed any success, though. It is called Esperanto. It was invented by a Polish man named Zamenhof. His language is based on Latin, German and Greek vocabulary. ⑥
Each letter always makes the same sound, and the grammar rules are simple.
Although Esperanto is spoken by about two million people and a thousand of them have learnt it as a first language, it is unlikely to become a world language. ⑦
