18、 and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the population of the world was hunter-gatherers, small, closely connected groups developed their own speech different from each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, wh

19、en the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages also became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the devel

20、opment of the nation-state and the spread of education, especially globalization and better communications in the past few years, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,80

The general rule is that warm, pleasant areas have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet areas have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about

22、 1,000; Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone has well over 800.

They speak better English than Italians and French. Hong Kong and Beijing follow Shanghai as Chinas next best English-speaking cities.Shanghai a

In these gardens, owners wanted to show their power over nature. Trees

43、 were planted in long lines. Flowerbeds and paths made symmetrical patterns（对称模式）on the ground. But Capability Brown changed all that. He didnt want to see patterns in a garden. He wanted a piece of countryside.In 1716, Brown began his working life as a gardeners helper. At twenty-five, he went to w

He was allowed to design gardens for other homes and was soon working for many wealthy families. When he first looked a

45、t the land for a garden that he was going to create, he often used to say “It has great capabilities” (meaning he was sure he could improve it) so everyone began to call him “Capabilities” Brown.To make his gardens, he pulled everything out and started again. He sometimes told his gardeners to move
