IV. Reading:
Read a passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions
Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of few speakers to become the dominant language of international communication. English as we know it today emerged around 1350, after having incorporated many elements of French that were introduced following the Norman invasion of 1030. Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England and had not extended even as far as Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. However, during the course of the next two centuries, English began to spread around the globe as a result of exploration, trade (including slave trade), colonization, and missionary work. Thus, small enclaves of English speakers became established and grew in various parts of the world. As these communities proliferated, English gradually became the primary language of international business, banking, and diploma.
Currently, about 80 percent of the information stored on computer systems worldwide is in English. Two-thirds of the world’s science writing is in English, and English is the main language of technology, advertising, media, international airports, and air traffic controllers. Today there are more than 700 million English users in the world, and over half of these are non- native speakers, constituting the largest number of non- native users than any other language in the world.
31. What is the main topic of this passage?
A. The number of non- native users of English.
B. The French influence on the English language.
C. The expansion of English as an international language.
D. The use of English for science and technology.
32. Approximately when did English begin to be used beyond England?
A. In 1066 B. Around 1350 C. Before 1600 D. After the 1600s
33. According to the passage, all of the following contributed to the spread of English around the world EXCEPT_______.
A. the slave trade B. the Norman invasion C. missionaries D. colonization
34. Which of the following could the word “enclaves” in the passage best be replaced by?
A. communities B. organizations C. regions D. countries
35. Which of the following is the word “proliferated” in the passage closest in meaning to?
A. prospered B. organized C. disbanded D. expanded

I started (36) _______ English when I was 14 years old after five years of studying Russian.

Then I tried to remember the way to read and write the word. After that, I wrote the word down several lines in a notebook. Gradually, I got (40) _______ to the spelling system of the language.

If you would like to go to a beautiful, faraway place, you should choose the Hawaiian Islands. Located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, in 1959 the islands became the 50th state of the U.S. Of all the Hawaiian Islands, Kauai is the best place for vacation as it is called a tropical paradise. With increasing tourist attraction, its population is getting higher especially in hot seasons. Because thick green rainforests cover the island, the air makes your skin soft and smooth. There is little air pollution here, and no stress. The beaches of Kauai are large part of its beauty; they are all lovely clean white sands. If you want to meet colourful undersea creatures, you will have to take a short course for diving. You need an enrolment to get training from professional divers. They also make wide explanations for the characteristics of the ocean. As soon as you make up your mind, reserve your place, buy your ticket and say goodbye to your stressful city!
