At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to _ their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a _ because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so youre more _. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate._, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a persons understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language _ your knowledge of other cultures.Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each others problems.The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages.

It wasnt the first time I had been abroad (Like many English children, I had often been to France). So when I went to America I thought I would have a nice easy holiday without any language problem.How wrong I was! The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to tell my American friend Danny that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.“Yes,” I said, “I want to give my friend a ring.”“Well, thats nice,” he said, “Are you getting married? But arent you too young?”“Who is talking about marriage?” I replied, “I only want to give my friend a ring to tell him Ive arrived. Can you tell me where there is a phone box?”“Oh,” he said, “there is a phone downstairs.”When at last we met, Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.“Dont worry,” he said to me, “I had so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which Americans use differently in meaning from British people. Youll soon get used to all the funny thingstheysay. Most of the time, British and American people understand each other.”27 . The writer was from_.AJapanBFranceCAmericaDEngland28 .

By changing the order of the words and by adding some auxiliary verbs (助动词)and suffixes (后缀), we can turn a statement into a question, state whether an action has taken place or is soon to take place, and perform many other word skills to express different meanings. However, the question which many language experts cant understand or explain is who created grammar?Some recent languages were developed from the Atlantic slave trade(大西洋奴隶贸易). Since the slaves didnt know each others languages, they developed a language called a pidgin. Pidgins are strings of words (字串) copied from the language of the landowners. They have little in the way of grammar, and speakers need to use too many words to make their meaning understood, however, Slave children didnt simply copy the strings of words used by their elders. They adapted their words to create an expressive language. In this way complex grammar systems which come from pidgins were invented. Further facts can be seen in studying sign languages for the deaf. Sign languages are not simply a group of gestures; they use the same grammatical system that is found in spoken languages. A recent record of the creation of this language was born in Nicaragua. Previously, although deaf children were taught speech and lip reading in the classrooms, on the playgrounds they began to invent their own sign system, using the gestures they used at home. It was basically a pidgin and didnt meet grammar rules. However, a new system was born when children who joined the school later developed a quite different sign language. It was based on the signs of the older children, but it was shorter and easier to understand, and it had a large range of special use of grammar to explain the meaning. What s more, they all used the signs in the same way. So the original pidgin was greatly improved. Most experts believe that many of the languages were pidgins at first. They were used in different groups of people without rules and gradually turned into a widely accepted system. The English past tense “ed” ending may have come from the verb “do”. “It ended” may once have been “It end-did”. It seems that children have grammatical machinery in their brains. Their minds can create different structures, even when there is no grammar present for them to copy.32 .
