From the above aspects try to answer the second question by yourself.
——The development of English
When Julius Caesar, later to be Roman Emperor, invaded Britain in BC 54-5, the “Celtic” tribes lived in the British Isles. Their Celtic languages still survive as “Gaelic” in Scotland & Ireland, “Welsh”, in Wales, and “Manx” in the Isle of Man, as well as “Breton” in France.
The Romans brought Latin to Britain, which was part of the Roman Empire for over 400 years. But early English did not develop mainly from Latin.
Background
In AD 878, the Vikings invaded Britain from Scandinavia, bringing with them the Norse language, though this was similar to the old English or Anglo-Saxon language already used.
The dramatic arrival of the Norman army from France, led by King William the Conqueror in 1066, and the defeat of the English King Harold at the Battle of Hastings, brought very big changes to English life. The Normans brought with them the Old French language, which
Background
became the language of the Royal Court, and the ruling and business class. So it is unlike French, Spanish and Italian, which did come directly from Latin. “Early English” was the language of tribes who invaded from the East, from what is now Germany. They spoke different dialects of a “Germanic” language, from which modern German developed. This explains why German and English are often similar, as many of their words developed from the same original language.

The Introduction of James A.H. Murray
James Augustus Henry Murray (7 February 1837 – 26 July 1915) was a Scottish lexicographer and philologist. He was the primary editor of the Oxford English Dictionary from 1879 until his death. As a young man Murray worked as a schoolmaster and a bank clerk, but always maintained a strong interest in other fields, particularly philology. In 1879 he was invited by Oxford University Press to edit the new English dictionary which had been proposed by the Philological Society.
The Introduction of Noah Webster
Noah Webster (16 October, 1758 – 28 May, 1843) was an American lexicographer, textbook author, spelling reformer, word enthusiast, and editor. He has been called the “Father of American Scholarship and Education.” His “Blue-Backed Speller” books were used to teach spelling and reading to five generations of American children. In the United States, his name has become synonymous with dictionaries, especially the modern Merriam-Webster dictionary that was first published in 1828 as An American Dictionary of the English Language.
The Introduction of Samuel Johnson
Samuel Johnson (18 September 1709 ?– 13 December 1784), often referred to as Dr. Johnson, was an English author who made lasting contributions to English literature as a poet, essayist, moralist, novelist, literary critic, biographer, editor and lexicographer. Johnson was a devout Anglican and political conservative, and has been described as "arguably the most distinguished man of letters in English history". He is also the subject of "the most famous single work of biographical art in the whole of literature": James Boswell's Life of Samuel Johnson.

4. Please +动词原形:请……
5. Would you like +动词原形:…..可以么?
请求与命令的转述方式
一、注意所使用的动词
英语常用的表示命令、请求和建议的动词有advise, ask, invite, order, remind, request, tell, warn等。
advise vt. 劝告;建议
My mother advised me to wear my best clothes.
我妈妈建议我穿上最好的衣服。
2. ask vt. 请求;邀请
I asked them to come to my house for dinner.
我请他们来我家吃饭。
3. invite vt. 邀请
Lisa invited us to come to her party.
Lisa邀请我们参加她的聚会。
4. order vt. 命令;指挥

5. remind vt. 使想起;提醒

6. request vt. 要求;请求

我们要求参观者不要摘花。
7. tell v.t.告诉;告诫;命令;警告

8. warn v.t. 警告;告诫(常与of连用) 指对于确实
的危险所作的警告,具有命令的意思。
She was warned not to come in the room.
她被警告不得进入那间屋子
由此可见,上述动词作谓语时有一个共同的特点,即都可以使用如下句型:
advise / ask / invite / order / remind / request / tell / warn sb. to do sth. 建议/要求/邀请某人做某事。如果是否定句,则在to前加not。在这个句型中,不定式作宾语补足语。
三、注意由直接引语变为间接引语句子的方法。
要注意直接说的话(称为直接引语)与转述的话(称为间接引语)在表达上是不一样的。由于表示的是命令、请求和建议,所以直接说的话多用祈使句式。
1. 肯定句的变法
Please read English in the morning, Jim, said
Miss Liu.
→ Miss Liu asked Jim to read English in the
morning.
2. 否定句的变法
Don't talk in class, Mr. Green warned me.
