that some 260 million people speak it as a native language,mainly in the United States,Canada,Great Britain,Ireland,South Africa,Australia and New Zealand.In addition to the standard varieties of English found in these areas,thereare a great many regional and social varieties of the language as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in itsspoken and written forms.In fact,it is impossible to estimate the number of people in the world who have acquired an adequate(足够的)workingknowledge of English in addition to their own languages.The purpose for English learning and the situations in which suchlearning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to explain and still more difficult to judge what forms an adequateworking knowledge for each situation.The main reason for the widespread demand for English is its present-day importance as a world language.Besidesserving the indefinite needs of its native speakers,English is a language in which some of important works in science,technology,and other fields are being produced,and not always by native speakers.It is widely used for such purposes asmeteorological and airport communications,international conferences,and the spread of information over the radio andtelevision networks of many nations.It is a language of wider communication for a number of developing countries,especially former British colonies.Many of these countries have multilingual populations and need a language for internalcommunication in such matters as government,commerce,industry,law and education as well as for internationalcommunication and for entrance to the scientific and technological developments in the West.26.What would be the best title for this passage?A.The Difficulties of Learning English B.International CommunicationsC.The Standard Varieties of English D.English as a World Language27.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.Some 260 million people in the world have an adequate working knowledge of English.B.There are some 260 million native speakers of English in the world.C.It is almost impossible to estimate the number of people with an adequate working knowledge of English.D.People learn English for a variety of reasons.28.According to the passage,what is the main reason for the widespread use of English?A.It was popular during Shakespeares time.B.It is used in former British colonies.C.It serves the needs of its native speakers.D.It is a world language that is used for international communication.29.What forms an adequate working knowledge of English?A.The ability to read a newspaper.B.It is difficult to judge because it differs for each situation.C.Being a multilingual.D.Being a native speaker.30.What type of developing countries would be most likely to use English?A.Those geographically close to the United States.B.Those interested in the culture of the United States.C.Former colonies of Great Britain.D.Countries where international conferences are held.BLucky is the man who has no“skeleton in his closet”.When a man has done something in his life that he is ashamed of,that he wants to hide,he is said to have a“skeleton in his closet”.Some people may have more than one skeleton.As we have noted many times,it is hard to find out how these expressions begin.Sometimes,we get some hard facts.But more often we have to depend on guesswork.And that is true of this phrase,which came from England.Before 1932,English law did not permit a doctor to cut open a dead human body for scientific examination,unless itwas the corpse(尸体)of an executed(处决)criminal.But when it became legal,more and more doctors demanded skeletons for a more scientific study of medicine.It washelping in the advance of modern medicine.The demand had become so strong that men began to rob tombs and sellskeletons to doctors at high prices.We are told that a doctor would usually buy just one skeleton for scientific study.It became very important in his work.But he had to keep it hidden because most people objected to keeping such a thing.As a rule,the doctor would keep hisskeleton in some dark corner where it could not be seen,or hide it in a closet.After a time,people began to suspect(怀疑)every doctor of hiding a skeleton in the closet.From this suspicion,thephrase“a skeleton in the closef,took on a broader,more general meaning to describe anything that a man wanted to keepothers from discovering.It could be proof of a criminal act,or something much less serious.Well,that is one theory.One writer,however,believes that the phrase might have come from something that really happened.It is his guess thata hidden closet in some old English country home may have turned up a real skeleton,clear proof of some old family shameor crime.Well,one mans guess is as good as another.But this sounds like a story by the great French novelist,Balzac.Baizac tells us of a man who suspected his wife of having a lover.The husband comes home by surprise.But she hearshim and quickly hides her lover in the closet of her bedroom.He enters her room and asks her if she is hiding her lover.Hesays he will not open the door to the closet if she promises him there is no one there;He will believe her.She answersfirmly that she is not hiding anyone in the closet.The husband then begins to build a solid brick wall against the closet.His wife watches,knowing that her lover willnever come out alive.But she will not change her story and admit her guilt.31.Which of the following situations is suitable for using the phrase“skeleton in the closet”?A.You have stolen something precious and dont want it discovered.B.You are a doctor and have to keep a skeleton for research.C.If you have cut open a dead human body for scientific examination you should keep the skeleton secret.D.You have done a crime or done something foolish,but you want to keep other from discovering it.32.From the text we know that there are theories about how the phrase skeleton in the closet“came intobeing.A.one B.two C.three D.four33.In Chinese the world“skeleton me a ns.A.尸体 B.标本 C.收藏 D.骷髅34.Which of the following is right according to the text?A.In the 20th century,doctors realized the importance of anatomy(解剖)in the development of medicine.B.The doctors of the ancient times liked to collect as many skeletons as possible.C.The thieves stole skeletons from tombs in order to help the doctors.D.It was legal that corpses of anybody were cut open for scientific examination in history.35.From the story Balzac told we know that the wifes lover must have b e c o me.A.a corpse B.a phrase C.a skeleton D.a secretCJune 26,2000 the Human Genome(基因组)Project,a great$3 billion,15-year task aimed at drawing thegenetic(遗传的)map of humans,is now more than 90 percent completed.The scientific and medical communities(团体)are very excited about the chances genetic research provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging(延长)human life.But those communities and policy(政策)makers also are careful about the scientific door they are opening as the projectuncovers the mysteries of life.For the last few years,the genetic advances in the developing field of biotechnology(生物技术)have providesmaterial for all kinds of work,but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of the human geneticcode(密码)have opened a world of possibilities for human health,as well as for the popular imagination.While European and Japanese researchers are making rapid progress in decoding(加 单 码)human DNA,the leadingorganization for genetic research is in the United States,which began in 1990,is unlocking the code of the human bodyto learn how to defeat fatal(致命的)diseases.Already,the Human Genome Project has become widely known and praisedfor finding the genes(基因)connected with terrible diseases as yet(迄今),and making progress toward separating thegenes that show a sign of breast cancer or AIDS.Once these genes are found and studied,researchers can develop new ways to attack infections(传染),and geneticdiseases.Medical companies are very interested in mapping the human genome,as they expect to develop a lot of newdrugs for these illnesses.36.Why did the scientists work hard at mapping the human genome?A.Because the human genome can destroy many illnesses.B.Because the human genomes completion can help them get rid of many diseases.C.Because

praised China for its remarkable achievementsin childrens welfare(福利).A.H.M.Farook,UNICEFs operations area officer for China and Mongolia said that China“can be very satisfied totell the whole world what can be done with limited resources to help its children to grow healthily and happily.Chinas child population makes up one-fifth of the worlds total.The reason behind the tremendous(巨大的)achievement is Chinas long tradition of caring for children both at home and in society,he said.“Whats more is that Chinese people have always given special attention to children who
