Why, you may wonder, should spiders be our friends? Because they destroy so many insects, including some of the greatest enemies

of the human race Insects would make it impossible for us to live in the world; they would eat up all our crops and kill our flocks and herds, if it were not for the protection we get from insect-eating animals Unlike some of the other insect eaters, spiders never do the least harm to us or do our belongings

Spiders are not insects, as many people think, nor even nearly related to them One can tell the difference almost at a glance for a spider always has eight legs and an insect never more than six How many spiders are engaged in this work on our interest? One expert on spiders took a count of the spiders in grass field in the south of England, and he estimated that there are more than 2, 250,

000 in one acre; that is something like 6, 000, 000 spiders of different kinds on a football pitch Spiders are busy for at least half

a year in killing insects It is impossible to make more than the wildest guess at how many they kill, but they are hungry creatures, not content with only three meals a day It has been estimated that the weight of all the insects destroyed by spiders in Britain in one year would be greater than the total weight of all the human beings

in the country

1 From the passage, we know that _

A spiders do harm to the human race

B insects do good to the spiders

C insects threaten the human race

D spiders are dangerous to the human race

2 "Insect-eating animals" means _

B animals that don't eat spiders

Trang 25

D insect eaters

3 Which of the following statements is not true according to thepassage? _

A None of the insects have over six legs

B All the insects have over six legs

C Neither spiders nor insects have more than ten legs

D Spiders are insect-eating animals

4 "How many spiders are engaged in this work on our interest?"Which of the following has the closest meaning of theunderlined phrase? _

A For our profit

B What interests us most

C What interests the spiders most

D Has nothing to do with us

5 "If it were not for the protection we get from insect-eatinganimals" means _

A If there were not the protection that we get from thespiders

B If we get the protection from insect-eating animals

C But for the protection that we don't get from the eating animals

Many people think the English do not like to speak other

Trang 33

very large It is much larger than almost every other language in the world

Many English words come from Latin, the old language of Rome, and also from Greek From Latin we get words like "wine" and "day" From Greek we have words such as "photograph", "Bible" and "ink" Because these two languages are dead, the words have most often come through other languages such as French, or the old German language There are also many words from both Greek and Latin together, "television", for example Here "tele" is the Greek for "far" and "vision" comes from Latin and means "seeing"

Many common English words come from very strange places

"Tea" is from China and "banana" from West Africa "Potato" came into the English language from the island of Haiti, and "tomato" first came from Mexico One reason why the English language has so many words from other languages is that people from many different countries have come to live in Britain Two thousand years ago Romans came from Italy, and stayed for over four hundred years Af-ter they left, the Angles, Saxons and Jutes came from the northern part of modern Germany In the ninth and tenth centuries Scandinavians came into the northern and eastern part of the country Finally, in the eleventh century William of Normandy came from France, and became King of England With him came French civilization and the French language

In modern Britain there are four separate languages: English, Welsh (about one third of the population of Wales speak Welsh), Scottish Gaelic and Irish Gaelic And the English language itself is very different from one place to another There are also many differences in spelling, vocabulary and pronunciation between American and British English

The English language continues to grow It is not only the language of Britain, but also of North America, Australia and New Zealand, and millions of people in Africa and Asia Today, it is the international language of trade, and maybe most important of all, the language of science and technology
