your parents, while you were a young child? your teachers at school? perhaps even the bbc as a grown-up. whoever it was, somehow you have developed an understanding of what is rapidly becoming a truly global language. there are now about 376 million people who speak english as their first language, and about the same number who have learnt it in addition to their mother tongue. there are said to be one billion people learning english now and about 80% of the information on the internet is in english. is this a good thing, or a bad thing? should we celebrate the fact that more and more of us can communicate, using a common language, across countries and cultures（文化）？or should we worry about the dangers of mono-centralism, a world in which we all speak the same language, eat the same food and listen to the same music? does it matter if an increasing number of people speak the same language? on the contrary（相反），i would have thoughtalthough i have never accepted the argument that if only we all understood each other better, there would be fewer wars. ask the people of india（where many of them speak at least some english）and pakistan（the same situation with india） if we all speak english, will we then all start eating mcdonalds burgers? surely not. if english becomes more dominant（占主导地位的）, it will kill other languages ? i doubt it. when i travel in africa or asia, i am always surprised by how many people can speak not only their own language but often one or more other related languages, as well as english and perhaps some french or german as well. when we discussed this on talking point a couple of years ago, we received a wonderfully poetic email from a listener in ireland. “the english language is a beautiful language. maybe its like a rose,” he said. “but who would ever want their garden just full of roses?” well, i love roses, and i think they make a beautiful addition to any garden. but the way i see it, just by planting a few roses, you dont necessarily need to pull out everything else. if more and more people want to plant english roses, thats fine by me. 67by saying “ask the people of indiaand pakistan”（in paragraph 4）, the author is trying to show that _. aspeaking the same language doesnt necessarily bring peace bwars can destroy the relationship between two countries cenglish doesnt kill other languages denglish is widely used in the world68what does “garden” in the last two paragraphs stand for? alanguageb. family c. the worldd. the earth69the author would probably agree that _. aits very hard to plant many kinds of flowers in a garden bits good for people from other countries to learn english cmore and more people like to plant roses in their gardens denglish is easier to learn than other languages70this passage is mainly about _. awhy english has become a global language bhow many people in the world speak english chow people in the world learn english as a foreign language dwhether we need to worry about english being a world language第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分l0分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。some ways to cheer upfeeling a little blue?
