Tolkien himself, Elvish is made up with several thousand words and different sentence structures.Constructed languages (人造语言) like Elvish are real languages, made up of thousands of words created by fantasy writers, linguists and fans, with real language rules. While a widespread vocabulary is advantageous to a constructed language, there is a key differentiator (区分者) we can see between just a lot of words and real language: Grammar.Grammar is what makes constructed languages like Elvish learnable by everyday superfans. Superfans of The Lord of the Rings have built websites and created dictionaries, apps and translators, to teach Elvish. They have also created online clubs where fans can discuss and even create new words based on the already existing vocabulary, and continue to study the language.So what does it take to be a master of Elvish?In learning Elvish, there are a couple of grammatical rules similar to those of the English language. For example, in order to make a verb past tense in English, you have to add an -ed, making wash, washed. Similarly in Elvish, in order to change the word for wash, which is allu, to the past tense then you have to add an -ne to the word. So washed is then translated to allune in past tense.Nouns in Elvish are different in the way that the noun changes depending on how its used in a sentence, just like in Latin or Russian. For example, the word head in Elvish is CAS. However, if you duck your head, then the word changes to CARA. When mentioning something in your head, then it changes to CASSE. Tolkiens attention to detail in creating the fantasy world used in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, complete with multiple functioning (多功能的) invented languages, has attracted readers and movie viewers these years.Elvish is only one of the many magical languages developed by J.R.R. Tolkien. Creating language for fantasy has proven to add to viewers and readers experiences. By transplanting their imagination to a new world, fans are able to learn the new language and speak Elvish with each other, much like their favorite characters.27 . （小题1）Elvish is considered a real language because _.Acertain grammatical rules make the language learnableBit is made up with lots of words and sentence structuresCcharacters in The Lord of the Rings use it to communicateDnew words can be created based on already existing words28 . （小题2）For the fans of The Lord of the Rings, _.AElvish is a language difficult to learnBthere is no Elvish dictionary to refer toCElvish adds to the novels attractivenessDthey can even create new grammar for Elvish29 . （小题3）Which of the following is TRUE about Elvish?AThe translation of “washed” in Elvish is “allu”.BThe form of a noun doesnt change in Elvish.CElvish and English share the same grammar.DElvish is also used in the film The Hobbit.30 . （小题4）The best title for this passage might be _.AElvish, a Magical LanguageBJ.R.R.

So I joined the “Earth care Project”. When I set out, I took nothing with me but some bad emotion(情绪).However, when the trip was over, my backpack was full of things, including joy, sadness, beautiful views and some knowledge about life.In this exchange project, I was glad that I could get along well with the strange participants(参加者) from other countries. We tried to take care of each other. The group leaders, Paul and Reg, were both nice. They were very knowledgeable about plants, animals and the environment. However, they were completely different from each other-one was very quiet and the other was very outgoing. They were a really interesting pair._1_. That was really encouraging. I felt very happy that I had done something useful for the earth with my own hands.On this trip, I learned to watch and think
