16、the English language is a story of change. The old English language, or Old English, is quite different from Modern English. If we dont study Old English, we cant understand it. Some of the words are the same but many are not used now. The story of the English language begins some time after the yea

17、r A.D.400. At this time some people came from North-West Europe. There were many groups of people. They were called Anglo-Saxons and Jutes, whose language, Old English, is like some of the modern languages of North-West Europe. In Old English the ending had many meanings.

It is the biggest lake in Britain. It is over t

23、hirty kilometres long and in places nearly 300 metres deep. It is cold and dark and not many people went there until after 1930. Then a road was made around the lake. Holiday-makers began to use the road, and this was when the stories began. Someone said that he had seen a monster in the lake. He sa

24、id it was twelve metres long. It had a long neck and a small head. Then someone else said he had seen it. Others said the same thing and in 1933 a London doctor took a photo. It looked like a monster with a long neck and a thick body but the photo was not clear. The newspapers printed the picture an

25、d called it the Loch Ness monster, or“Nessie”. Then the argument began. Some people, however, were certain there was something living in the lake. Others said there was nothing there.In 1961, a lot of people joined together to make a real effort to see and photograph the monsterthere was one! Severa

26、l times people thought they saw something but after ten years there still no real proof. Later underwater television cameras were used, but no one found any real proof. However, they did find something interesting: a huge underwater cave. It was big enough to be home of a monster, but of course, thi

27、s was not a proof. In 1975, however, some American scientists formed a search group. They used an underwater camera. It took pictures every seventy seconds. Some of the pictures seemed to show a red-brown creature. Its body was about four-metres long and had a very ugly head on the end of a four met

31、uld you know about speed of reading? Some people read very rapidly; others read very slowly. But which one is better? The rapid reader may be a good reader when he reads a story-book for fun. But he may not be able to slow down enough to read directions carefully. He may read so rapidly that he does

32、 not take time to understand fully the ideas and information which are important to remember. The slow reader may be a good reader when he reads directions for making something. But he may spend altogether too much time in reading a simple story which is meant to be enjoyed but is not important enou

Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters from friends, bits of news from home town papers.4.In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go along.

36、d to read certain pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas.11.Who is a good reader, a slow one or a rapid one?A. A slow one. B. A rapid one. C.
