14、mined in the traditional Englishspeaking countries like Britain and America but in the rest of Europe, Asia and Africa.International organisations and businesses communicate with each other in English. But a new pattern of using English is developing that does not look the same to native speakers as
15、 “traditional” English. Researchers are now investigating “nonnative” English which is a new form of the language with changes in grammar, pronunciation and meaning. Often meanings and words from other languages find their way into English to produce a new dialect such as “Franglais” which combines
16、aspects of French and English. You could say this gives English a French flavour. All of these processes are a form of natural evolution.

18、些传统讲英语的国家,而是由欧洲其他国家及亚洲和非洲来决定。国际组织和企业用英语彼此进行交流。但是一种新型的使用英语的模式发展起来了,它不像本地人使用的传统英语。研究者在调查“非本地”英语,它是一种新的语言形式,在语法、发音和意义上都有很大的改变。来自其他语言的意思和单词经常会在英语中占一席之地而生成一种新的方言,例如“Franglais”就是结合了法语和英语的不同方面。你可以说这给英语加上了法语韵味。所有这些过程都是自然发展的一种形式,直到那些新的方言名正言顺地真正成为一种语言的时候,它们才会拥有自己的复杂的特色。专家们确信当越来越多的人学习英语并能运用自如时,这一切在将来都会发生。Colou
19、rful EnglishEnglish has a huge number of colourful and splendid expressions which may be difficult to understand. Even if the meaning of the words is straightforward, the cultural associations of the phrase may be ambiguous. The dilemma is to know which are explicit, which are figurative, and why th
20、ey are relevant to an everyday situation.Idioms are picturesque or absurd expressions conveying a concept which is different from the literal meaning and have been common in English for many years. The Pilgrim Fathers in America always asked for turkeys when they traded with Native Americans. Thus,
21、to talk turkey means to get down to business. But some idioms are very new and youll need to clarify what they mean. For example, mad as a box of frogs is a recent way of describing someone who has a tendency to be rather disorganised or vague. A bad hair day is one when you feel clumsy or depressed
22、, possibly because your hair doesnt look good.Many expressions are advertising slogans. Thatll do nicely, sir! comes from an old TV ad for American Express. Its the shop assistants reply to a customer who selects a credit card from his wallet and asks if the shop accepts American Express.Other commo

24、door before you. Its not meant to abuse the other person, but it may sometimes cause offence.

27、ound.五花八门的英语英语有着大量的丰富多彩的极好的表达方式,也许很难理解。即使单词的意思简单易懂,但短语在文化方面的联系可能就含糊不清了。困难在于搞懂哪些是明确的表达,哪些是象征比喻,而它们又为何与某个现实生活的情形相关。习语是一些生动或不合常理的表达方式,传递着一个与字面意义完全不同的概念,并且多年来在英语里普遍使用。美国的朝圣先驱们在与美国本土居民做生意的时候总是要火鸡。因此,“谈论火鸡”意思就是“开始做生意吧”。但是有些习语是新的,你需要去弄清它们的意思。例如:“像一盒青蛙一样疯狂”是最近的一种表达方式,描述的是某人非常无序或者茫然。“发型不好看”指的是一个人感到笨拙或沮丧的时候,很
28、可能是由于你的发型看起来不好看。许多表达方式都是广告标语。“可以的,先生!”来自为美国运通卡设计的一则旧的电视广告。它是售货员用来回答一个从钱包里选择信用卡的顾客的,这个顾客问商店是否接受美国运通卡。其他一些通用的表达方式具有比喻意义。“把你的坦克从我的草坪上开走”意思是“后退!吓唬谁呀!”他是被一位英国首相首先使用的,他反对由一个工会头目发起的一场潜在罢工的威胁。“长者先请”是用来邀请别人先于你而进门的,并非是辱骂对方的意思,只是偶尔会(让人误会)得罪人。“铁幕政策”是政治家温斯顿丘吉尔的关于东欧和西欧之间分割线的条款。“有这样的朋友,还要敌人干什么?”意思是一个朋友背叛了你的信任或让你失望
29、了。“我们要战斗到底”来自美国内战,在美国民权运动中几乎被当作祈祷文一样使用着,意思是我们将会反抗对黑人的偏见和抵制美国人之间的冲突。最后,传统谚语常常是表达一个寓意或者一条规劝。例如:“入乡随俗”建议你应该适应当地的情况。一些谚语还被引申到更高的意义层次上来,例如出自1966年的音乐歌舞剧卡米洛特中的“钱能使世界运转”,它来自于古老的谚语“爱能让世界运转”。Chinese as a Foreign LanguageWho wants to learn Chinese?

30、inese as a foreign language is growing fast, both in Englishspeaking countries, such as Britain and the USA, and in other countries like France, where the number of students studying Chinese has increased by 15% each year in recent years.There are a number of reasons for the interest.

31、ops economically, opportunities for doing business increase dramatically and if you know your partners language, your chances of success increase. But there is also a renewed interest in the culture and traditions of China; the fact that Chinese culture has continued uninterrupted for more than 5,000 years is a source of curiosity and fascination for people in other parts of the world.A third reason is that learning Chinese is, simply, a challenge.
