form on the screen.The Road To Modern EnglishThe cause：Cultures communicate with one anotherTimeThings that happenedBetween AD 450 and 1150Based on German 1150 to 1500Less like German； more like Frenchwhy？because Frenchmen ruled England thenIn the 1600sShakespeare broadened the vocabulary.A big change in English，giving its own identitywhy？caused by “American Dictionary of the English language” written by Noah WebsterLater British people brought English to AustraliaT：We know culture communication brings about changes in English.Can you think of any effect that Chinese has on English？T：Great!With more closely communication of culture，English is changing more frequently.T：As we all know，English is spoken as the native language mostly in western countries.Then what about English in some other parts of the world？After reading the last paragraph，would you please say something about the present situation of English in your own words？Step 7 DiscussionT：So far，weve known that English is becoming more and more important in China.It has been an important subject for Chinese students.But someone say that Chinese is a much more elegant language.So it is more important for us to master it and it is not so necessary for us to master a foreign language.Do you agree with this opinion and why？Suggested answer：I dont agree with it.With the cultural communication becoming more and more frequent，the chance to contact foreigners，exported goods，international conferences，and so on，is more and more.As the most widely used language，English is regarded as the language used in most international situations.Thus，if we want to keep up with the times，wed better master English and use it as a tool.Step 8 Summary and homeworkT：Today weve learned an article on “the road to modern English”.After class，you should read it again and again to get the idea of the text further.Do the exercises of comprehending and try to tell your partner something about English in our own

of the passage to us？Let me try.English is used more and more today.The number of the people speaking it is increasing rapidly.China has the biggest number of English speakers.However，even two native speakers do not speak the same English because there are many kinds of English.That is caused by communication of culture.So actually even they can not understand everything they say.Besides being

to you.核心单词1. command n. & vt. 命令；指令；掌握The officer commanded his soldiers to fire. 那名军官命令士兵们开火。A general is a man who commands a large number of soldiers.将军是统率众多士兵的人。常用结构：at/ by sbs command 听某人支配 take
