way it can evoke 唤起 an emotion a visual image a complex idea or a simple truth Language is the tool of my trade And I use them all all the Englishes I grew up with Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California I ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks Like others I have described it to people as broken English But feel embarrassed to say that It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than broken as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed as if it lacked a certain wholeness I ve heard other terms used limited English for example But they seem just as bad as if everything is limited including people s perceptions 认识 of the limited English speaker I know this for a fact because when I was growing up my mother s limited English limited my perception of her I was ashamed of her English I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say That is because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect And I had plenty of evidence to support me the fact that people in department stores at banks and at restaurants did not take her seriously did not give her good service pretended not to understand her or even acted as if they did not hear her I started writing fiction in 1985 And for reasons I won t get into today I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with the English she used with me which for lack of a better term might be described as broken and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese her internal 内在的 language and for that I sought to preserve the essence but neither an English nor a Chinese structure I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show her intention her feelings the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts 66 By saying Language is the tool of my trade the author means that A she uses English in foreign trade B she is fascinated by languages C she works as a translator D she is a writer by profession 67 The author used to think of her mother s English as A impolite B amusing C imperfect D practical 68 Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3 A Americans do not understand broken English B The author s mother was not respected sometimes C The author mother had positive influence on her D Broken English always reflects imperfect thoughts 69 The author gradually realizes her mother s English is A well structured B in the old style C easy to translate D rich in meaning 70 What is the passage mainly about A The changes of the author s attitude to her mother s English B The limitation of the author s perception of her mother C The author s misunderstanding of limited English D The author s experiences of using broken English PART
