9、illion. Today it is estimated 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, there are a great many regional and s
10、ocial varieties of the language as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in its spoken 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) working knowledge of English in addition to their own languages. The p
11、urpose for English learning and the situations in which such learning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to explain and still more difficult to judge what forms an adequate working knowledge for each situation. The main reason for the widespread demand for English is its present-day impo
12、rtance as a world language. Besides serving 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 as meteorological and ai
13、rport munications, international conferences, and the spread of information over the radio and television networks of many nations. It is a language of wider munication for a number of developing countries, especially former British colonies. Many of these countries have multilingual populations and

19、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
20、 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 scient
21、ific examination, unless it was 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 was helping in the advance of modern medicine. The demand had bee so strong that men began to rob tombs and sell
22、skeletons 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 his skeleton in some dark
23、 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, the phrase “a skeleton in the closet” took on a broader, more general meaning to describe anything that a man wanted to keep oth
24、ers 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 e from something that really happened. It is his guess that a hidden closet in some old English country home may have turned u
25、p a real skeleton, clear proof of some old family shame or 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 es home by surprise. But she hears him and q
26、uickly hides her lover in the closet of her bedroom. He enters her room and asks her if she is hiding her lover. He says he will not open the door to the closet if she promises him there is no one there; He will believe her. She answers firmly that she is not hiding anyone in the closet. The husband
27、 then begins to build a solid brick wall against the closet. His wife watches, knowing that her lover will never e 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 some
28、thing 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 disco
29、vering it. 32. From the text we know that there are _ theories about how the phrase “skeleton in the closet” came into being. A. one B. two C. three D. four33. In Chinese the world “skeleton” means _. 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)
