English Around the World
Nowadays, around 400 million people take English as their first language in
countries such as Australia, Britain, Canada, Ireland, Jamaica, New Zealand, South
Africa and the United States. In addition , there are many more millions of
people who take English as a second language. Besides, English is the most widely
studied foreign language in the world. So how did English become a world
language
British English
It was in Shakespeare's lifetime that English began to spread . .around the
world.(强调句型,强调时间状语in Shakespeare's lifetime。去掉It was和that后的表
达为English began to spread around the world in Shakespeare's lifetime。) In
1607, British rulers established a colony(殖民地) in Virginia—the first
permanent English-speaking settlement in North America. By the time the
Americans won their independence . .from Britain in the 1780s(By the time引导的
时间状语从句), there were thirteen colonies and four million English-speaking
people!
American English
In 1806, Noah Webster published his first Dictionary of American English. In
the 19th century, American English spread with the expansion of the United
States. After 1848, it was also influenced by immigrants(移民) from Germany,
Italy and other European countries. In the 20th century, American English began to
influence the rest of the world, first through Hollywood films and then through
television.
Canadian English
Canadian English started in 1782, near the end of the American War of
Independence. To British people, Canadian English sounds similar to American
English, but to Americans it sounds slightly British! Canadians use many
American words like "truck" for "lorry" and "gas" for "petrol".
Australian English
Australian English began in 1788when the first British prisoners were sent
away. .to Australia as punishment(when引导的定语从句,修饰先行词1788,when在
从句中作时间状语。).The Australian accent was heavily influenced by Cockney,
as there were large numbers of working class Londoners who were transported to
Australia for crimes(as引导的原因状语从句,其中包含一个who引导的定语从句,
修饰working class Londoners。). Australian English is also unique because of the
Aboriginal(澳大利亚土著的) words that have come into the language—words like
"kangaroo" and"boomerang".

人物小传
诺亚·韦伯斯特(1758—1843),被誉为"美国学术和教育之父"。1828年,韦伯斯特
出版了《美国英语词典》。
译文参考
世界各地的英语
当今,在澳大利亚、英国、加拿大、爱尔兰、牙买加、新西兰、南非和美国等国
家大约有4亿人把英语当作他们的母语。另外,还有数百万人把英语当作第二语言。
而且英语是世界上学习最广泛的外语。那么,英语是怎样成为一门世界通用语言的呢?
英式英语
英语开始传播到世界各地是在莎士比亚时代。1607年,英国统治者在弗吉尼亚
建立了一个殖民地——北美第一个说英语的永久定居地。到18世纪80年代美国脱离
英国获得独立时,已经有13个殖民地和400万说英语的人!
美式英语
1806年,诺亚·韦伯斯特出版了他的第一部美式英语词典。19世纪,美式英语随
着美国的扩张而传播开来。1848年后,它又受到来自德国、意大利及其他欧洲国家
的移民的影响。20世纪,美式英语首先通过好莱坞电影,然后通过电视开始影响世
界的其他地方。
加拿大英语
加拿大英语产生于1782年,接近美国独立战争末期。对英国人来说,加拿大英
语听起来与美式英语相似,但对美国人来说,它听起来略像英式英语!加拿大人使
用很多美式英语单词,如用"truck"而不是"lorry",用"gas"而不是"petrol"。
澳大利亚英语
澳大利亚英语产生于1788年,那时第一批英国犯人被送到澳大利亚接受惩罚。
由于有大量因犯罪而被送到澳大利亚(服役)的伦敦工人阶级,澳大利亚的口音严
重受到了伦敦东区口音的影响。又由于澳大利亚土著词汇的加入,像单词"kangaroo"
和"boomerang",澳大利亚英语也显得独一无二。

学一学 听力技巧
英语知识随时“积”
在听力录音中,代词的指代功能导致关键词被后置,或关键词所在的句子的主
语被换成代词,导致同学们无法回忆前面讲的内容。听力中常听到的代词主要有人
称代词(I、you、 he、she、it、we、they、them等)和指示代词(this、that、these、
those等)。 这些词对同学们的影响比较大,在听或者做题的过程中都非常容易被忽
略,若没有弄清楚代词的指代对象,理解上一定会有出入,解题就会出错,所以在
听录音材料时,要先注意提到的名词,再留意后面提到的代词。
Work in pairs or groups. Discuss which other language(s) you want to
learn and why.
My father is doing business with Russians. I'd like to learn Russian so I can
help him in the future.
I like watching Japanese cartoons, so I'd like to learn Japanese.
Perhaps I should study French. I think it sounds beautiful, and I know it's used
in many countries.
EXAMPLE
A:What language do you want to study
B:I really want to study French. I think that the French language sounds beautiful.
A:Why Do you want to go to France some day
B:Yes, I'd love to. Also, French is used by many international organisations around
the world. Do you know that FIFA's full name is in French
A:Oh,I remember that. But I don't know how to pronounce it.
Pronunciation
1 Work in pairs. Read the words to each other and see if you pronounce
them differently.
□schedule □hostile □either □address
□direct □laboratory □advertisement □shone
Listen and pay attention to how the speakers pronounce them.
2 Listen to the paragraph read by two different speakers. Which speaker

(neither...nor... 意为"既不……也不……", 连接并列成分。). English muffins
weren't invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats(糖果) are

英音和美音的区别
英式英语和美式英语在读音上的差异主要反映在元音字母a,o和辅音字母r上。
1.后接ss、st、sk、th、f、n时,字母a在英式英语中常读作/ɑ:/,而在美式英语中常读
作/ /。如pass在英式英语中读作/pɑ:s/,而在美式英语中读作/p s/。
2.在美式英语中没有/ /音;在英式英语中发音有这个元音的词汇在美式英语中发/ɑ:/
或/ :/音。如lock在英式英语中读作/l k/,而在美式英语中读作/lɑ:k/;dog在英式英语
中读作/d ɡ/,而在美式英语中读作/d :ɡ/。
3.在英式英语中,只有后面紧跟一个发音以元音音素开头的词时,辅音字母r才发音,
读作/r/;在美式英语中,所有的r都发/r/音(Mrs除外)。如work在英式英语中读作
/wз:k/,而在美式英语中读作/wз:rk/。

THE CHINESE WRITING SYSTEM:CONNECTING THE PAST AND
THE PRESENT
China is widely known for its ancient civilisation which has continued all the
way through into modern times, despite the many ups and downs in its
history. There are many reasons why this has been possible(关系副词why引导的定
语从句,修饰先行词reasons,why在从句中作原因状语。), but one of the main
factors has been the Chinese writing system.At the beginning, written Chinese
was a picture-based language. It dates back several thousand years to the use
of longgu—animal bones and shells on which. .symbolswere. .carved . .by
ancient Chinese people("介词+关系代词"引导的定语从句,修饰先行词animal bones
and shells。). Some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in today's hanzi.
By the Shang Dynasty (around 1600 - 1046 BCE), these symbols had
become a well-developed writing system. Over the years , the system
developed into different forms, as it was a time when people were divided
geographically(as引导的原因状语从句,其中包含"it is/was a time when..."句型,
意为"这是一个……的时代/时刻",关系副词when引导定语从句,修饰先行词
time。), leading to many. .varieties. .of. .dialects. .and characters
(动词-ing短语作结果状语.) This, however, changed under Emperor
Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty (221-207 BCE).
Emperor Qinshihuang united the seven major states into one unified
country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one direction
(where引导的定语从句,修饰先行词one unified country,where在从句中作地点状
语。). That writing system was of great importance("of+抽象名词"结构作表
语) in uniting the Chinese people and culture. Even today, no matter where
Chinese people live or what dialect . .they speak( "no matter +特殊疑问词"引导
的让步状语从句,what前省略了no matter。), they can all still communicate in
writing.
Written Chinese has also become an important means by which China's
present is connected with its past( "介词by+which"引导的定语从句,修饰先行词an
important means。). People in modern times can read the classic works which
were written by Chinese in ancient times. The high regard for the Chinese
writing system can be seen in the development of Chinese characters as an art
form,known as Chinese calligraphy , which has become an important part of
Chinese culture(which引导的非限制性定语从句,对先行词Chinese calligraphy进行
补充说明。).
Today, the Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture.
As China plays a greater role in global affairs(As意为"随着",引导时间状语从
句。) , an increasing number of international students are beginning to
appreciate China's culture and history through this amazing language.
汉字书写体系:连接过去与现在
尽管历史跌宕起伏,中国因其古代文明一直延续至今而闻名于世。其存续的原
因颇多,但主要因素之一是汉字的书写体系。
汉字在最初是一种基于图形的语言。它可以追溯到数千年前使用龙骨的时期。
龙骨指动物骨头和壳,古代中国人在上面刻画简单的符号。一些古代符号在今天的
汉字中仍可看到。
到商朝(约公元前1600年—前1046年) 时,这些符号已经演变成一套成熟的书
写体系。在随后的年代里,这一体系发展成不同的形式,这是由于当时中国人居住
地域的分隔,导致了不同方言和汉字变体的产生。然而,这在秦朝(公元前221年—
前207年)秦始皇统治时期发生了变化。
秦始皇统一七个主要的诸侯国,建立了统一的国家,中国的书写体系在这个国
家开始朝同一个方向发展。该书写体系对于中国人民与中国文化的统一具有非凡的
意义。即使在今天,不论住在哪里,也不论说何种方言,中国人仍能通过书写
(汉字)进行交流。
汉字也成为连接中国现在与过去的一个重要媒介。现代中国人可以阅读古代中
国人撰写的经典作品。中国人对其书写体系推崇备至,这体现在汉字发展为一种艺
术形式——书法。书法已经成为中国文化的一个重要组成部分。
今天,汉字书写体系仍是中国文化的一个重要部分。随着中国在全球事务中扮
演着更为重要的角色,越来越多的国际学生开始通过中文这一奇妙的语言欣赏中国
的文化和历史。

Learning Chinese could be one of the most important decisions you have ever
made. With the world's largest population and the rapidly growing middle class,
China stands to become the engine of the world's economy in the coming years.
This will make learning Chinese very important to people in many industries, or to
those who wish to visit China or learn about its culture and history.
There is an ongoing effort to modernize the writing system and standardize the
language. An increasing number of people learning Chinese are learning putonghua,
so unless you absolutely need to learn a dialect (such as Cantonese), be sure
you are studying putonghua.
For native English speakers, Chinese is one of the most difficult and most
different languages to learn. The vocabulary is wholly unfamiliar and unlike
anything they know. In addition, in the Chinese tone system, words are spoken in
four different tones, which helps to distinguish them. Furthermore, there is a
Chinese writing system—a collection of thousands of individual ideograms
(表意文字), or symbols, which represent a word or an idea. These ideograms
have no phonetic(语音的) value—that is to say, we can't tell how the word is
pronounced by how it is written. There is a method of presenting written Chinese
in a phonetic script called Pinyin. If you are learning Chinese, you'll be working
with this Pinyin system, but the beauty of the traditional writing system shouldn't
be ignored. All these factors make learning Chinese difficult for us. Yet, for a
determined learner, there's always a way to overcome these difficulties.
