　　I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric(怪僻的)farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I hadn’t the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go .

　　It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn’t know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. “She meant more to me than anyone…even my own wife!” he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal(丑聞). I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn(廄).”I wouldn’t leave her out in the cold!” he said. Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door .He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground.” She was such a good cow!

Suddenly a huge wave lifted Sandra up and carried her out to sea. Fortunately,a lifeguard was on duty and he saw the wave carry Sandra away. He ran along the beach and dived into the sea. He swam quickly to where the girl, with her head only just above the water, was shouting for help. She was very frightened. When the lifeguard reached her,she struggled with him, as drowning people often do. However, he was a skilful lifeguard and quickly took hold of her and swam with her back to the beach. By the time he reached it, Mr and Mrs Gordon had realized what had happened. They had run down to the water’s edge. Neither of them could swim. They just stood in the shallow water, and worried about their daughter.

　　English is an important global language, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to learn. Many experts have tried to make English easier for students to learn – but they weren’t always successful.

　　In 1930, Professor CK Ogden of Cambridge University invented Basic English. It had only 850 words (and just eighteen verbs) and Ogden said most people could learn it in just thirty hours. The problem was that people who learned Basic English could write and say simple messages, but they couldn’t understand the answers in ‘real’ English! It was also impossible to explain a word if it wasn’t in the Basic English word list. For example, if you wanted a watermelon, you asked for ‘a large green fruit with the form of an egg, which has a sweet red inside and a good taste’!

　　RE Zachrisson, a university professor in Sweden, decided that the biggest problem for learners of English was spelling, so he invented a language called Anglic. Anglic was similar to English, but with much simpler spelling. ‘Father’ became ‘faadher, ‘new’ became ‘nue’ and ‘years’ became ‘yeerz’. Unfortunately for some students of English, Anglic never became popular.

　　Even easier is the language which ships’ captains use: it’s called ‘Seaspeak’. Seaspeak uses a few simple phrases for every possible situation. In Seaspeak, for example you don’t say, ‘I’m sorry what did you say?’ or ‘I didn’t understand, can you repeat that?’ ... it’s just, ‘Say again.’ No more grammar!

　　In the age of international communication through the Internet who knows? ... a new form of English might appear. A large number of the world’s e-mails are in English and include examples of ‘NetLingo’ like OIC (Oh, I see) and TTYL (Talk to you later). In another fifty years, English as we know it might not exist ... we will probably all speak fluent Internetish!

　　61. The best title for the passage would be ______.

　　Seaspeak

　　B. Basic English

　　C. Easy English

　　D. Internetish

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】標題歸納題。根據Many experts have tried to make English easier for students to learn文章開頭就指出主題怎樣把英語變得更加簡單，下文敘述了人們的不同做法，故選C。

　　62. It will take a person about ______ weeks to learn Basic English if he spends two hours learning it every day.

　　A. six

　　B. four

　　C. three

　　D. two

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】細節理解題。根據Ogden said most people could learn it in just thirty hours.花30個小時，一天兩個小時所以總共花兩周的時間，故選D。

　　63. According to Professor Zachrisson, what was the biggest problem for learners of English?

　　A. Grammar.

　　B. Vocabulary.

　　C. Spelling.

　　D. Speaking.

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】細節理解題。根據RE Zachrisson, a university professor in Sweden, decided that the biggest problem for learners of English was spelling, Zachrisson教授說最大的問題是拼寫，故選C。

　　64. Which of the following is likely to be Anglic?

　　A. A graet batl.

　　B. IOU

　　C. Long time no see.

　　D. Two five, no lights.

　　【答案】A

　　【解析】細節理解題。根據Anglic was similar to English,可推出選項A的單詞拼寫上看出近似于英語但又不是英語，故選A。

　　65. What might happen to English in another fifty years?

　　A. It might become a global language.

　　B. It might be replaced by Internetish.

　　C. It might take the place of all other languages.

　　D. It might become more and more difficult.

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】細節理解題。根據In another fifty years, English as we know it might not exist ... we will probably all speak fluent Internetish!再過50年有可能出現Internetish語言，故選B。
