Is it possible that the people of the world today could agree upon a single international language that everyone would be able to speak and understand?
In the United Nations there are five official languages English, Chinese, Russian, French and Spanish. How about making one of them into an international language? English has been worked on for this purpose. A basic word list of about 850 English words named Basic English was made. These are the only verbs in the entire list:“come, go, give, keep, let, do, put, make, say, be, seem, may, will, have, send”. Writing in Basic English may require you to use a greater number of words——as in having to say“it came to my ears”instead of “I heard”——but you can still say anything you want to with about 850 different words and a few suffixes and prefixes. This is a much smaller number of words to have to memorize than the ordinary number offered to the students of a foreign language.
But people have always had a need to do more than simply“tell it as it is”. Language is for reporting not only one's work. For this, a language needs idioms, needs all kinds of grammar and style that reflect its history and development just as a person needs eyebrows. Is there some special reason why our lips should be a different color from our skin? Perhaps not, but this is how people——real people——are. For communication between people, languages in all diversity(各種各樣)will remain to reflex the growth and soul of the societies that speak them.
(1)If we write a composition in Basic English, it will be ________.
[ ]
A．longer than usual
B．shorter than usual
C．hard for us to express what we want to
D．able to express ourselves in different style as we like to
(2)In the passage“tell it as it is”means ________.
[ ]
A．people can use Basic English to say what they want to
B．people think Basic English can express what they see or hear
C．people say what they want to according to the fact
D．tell something they like to
(3)This passage begins with a question. According to the writer's opinion, the answer to the question may be“________.”
[ ]
A．It will be possible in the future
B．It seems to be possible if people agree to use Basic English
C．It seems impossible that people can use a simple language to express themselves in various lives
D．It is impossible except that the five official UN languages are used at the same time
(4)Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
[ ]
A．The words used in Basic English are strictly limited to 850, and nothing more.
B．Basic English seems not to be so easy to learn.
C．Basic English can be used to express our complicated thought easily.
D．Basic English is not a natural development of the English language.
