More people are trying to learn English than any other language in the world. 1       School children in the Philippines and Japan begin learning English at an early age.

Where did the English language come from? Why has it become so popular? To answer these questions we must travel back in time about five thousand years to an area north of the Black Sea in southeastern Europe.

Experts say the people in that area spoke a language called Proto-Indo-European. That language is no longer spoken. 2       These include the language that developed into English.

The English language is a result of the invasions of the island of Britain over many hundreds of years. The first invaders were a people called Angles about one thousand and five hundred years ago. Later the Saxons and the Jutes crossed to Britain. These groups fought with a people called the Celts. 3       Some escaped to live in the area that became Wales. Through the years,the Saxons,Angles and Jutes mixed their different languages. The result is what is called Anglo-Saxon or Old English,the earliest form of English.

The next great invasion of Britain came from the far north beginning about one thousand and one hundred years ago. Fierce people called Vikings raided the coast areas of Britain. 4       The next invasion of Britain took place in ten sixtysix. History experts call this invasion the Norman Conquest. The Normans became the new rulers of Britain. These new rulers spoke only French for several hundred years. The French language used by the Norman rulers greatly changed the way English was spoken by eight hundred years ago. 5       Middle English sounds like modern English. But it is very difficult to understand now.

The history of the English language continues as Middle English becomes Modern English,which is spoken today.

   A. English is the major foreign language taught in most schools in South America and Europe.

   B. Researchers do not really know what it sounded like.

   C. After a while,most of the Celts were killed,or made slaves.

   D. English became what language experts call Middle English.

   E. Many English words used today come from these ancient Vikings.

   F. Yet,Proto-Indo-European is believed to be the ancestor of most European languages.

   G. The Celts had lived in Britain for many thousands of years.

Charles Dickens,the famous English novelist,wrote a great 1        books. He had a cat 2        which he was very fond. She was a fine Persian cat with pure white fur. One evening,as he was absorbed in 3       (read) one of his favorite books 4       a candlelight,the candle suddenly went 5       . He was surprised,but took a match,6       (strike) it,and lighted the candle again,and once more sat down to read. You can imagine his 7       (astonish) when he again found himself in complete 8       (dark) . He looked around the room,lighted the candle again,and began to read once more. After a while he stopped and looked up. He saw that his cat was trying to put out the light with her paw. The cat's 9       (intend) was quite clear to him―she wanted him to stop reading and play with her for a while. Of course he did this,and besides he gave her some milk. The cat was quite contented. She went over and curled herself 10       a ball on the sofa to take a nap. Then Dickens continued to read,and this time the cat did not interrupt him again.

Proverbs are quite common in spoken English. We don't normally put them in a composition or a letter. Sometimes it is helpful if you know what common proverbs mean. Here are a few examples：

1       If a dog bites me,I shall be twice as careful in future when I see it. This proverb is also used to apply to many things and not only to dogs. If you have been cheated at a shop,you will not go to the same shop again.

2       If I am a hunter,trying to catch birds,it is better to catch one than to see two birds in a bush but not able to catch them. Thus this means that what you have already got is better than the chance of being able to get something bigger in future.

3       When too many people do something,they get in each other's way and do a bad job. "Pour oil on troubled waters" is to try to calm things down. Oil is lighter than water. If

a ship is in trouble at sea,another ship may come to help it. The second ship can send small boats to rescue people. However,it may first pour oil on the sea to mi^ce the sea less rough.

"Don't be a dog in a manger (食槽) "means "don't be selfish". In a stable (;馬廄) ，the manger is the place where the horse's food is put. Sometimes a dog will sleep in the manger and bark when a horse comes to get its food. The dog does not want to eat the hay in the manger but it will not let the horse eat it.

"He is sitting on the fence" means that somebody will not say whether he is in favor of a plan or against it. He is sitting on a fence between two opposing sides,perhaps waiting to see which side will win.

4       A piper is a musician. The man who employs or pays a musician can say what tunes the man will play. Thus this means that if a man provides the money for a plan,he can say how it will be carried out.

5       means that you cannot get something from a person who has not got any of the things you want,for example,you cannot get a million dollars from a poor man.

   A. ” You can't get blood out of a stone."

   B. "He who pays the piper calls the tune."

   C. "Once bitten,twice shy."

   D. "It is pouring cats and dogs."

   E. "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."

   F. "It is no use crying over spilt milk."

   G. "Too many cooks spoil the broth (soup) ."
