C. READING

I. Read the passage below and choose the best answer from A, B, C, or D. (1.0 point)

If we took a look at how people in Europe communicated just one hundred years ago, we would be
very surprised to find out that English was hardly used outside the United Kingdom. The language
most commonly used between people of different nationalities, and particularly the aristocracy, was
French. In fact, French was the language of diplomacy, culture and education. However, that is not the
case nowadays. English has replaced French as the international language of communication. Today,
there are more people who speak English as a second language than people who speak it as a first
language.

</div>
(6)<div class='page_container' data-page=6>

There are many reasons why English has become the language of international communication.
Britain’s colonization of many parts of the world had something to do with it, but it is mainly due to

America’s rise to the position of major world power. This helped spread popular American culture
throughout the world bringing the language with it.

Có nhiều lý do tại sao tiếng Anh đã trở thành ngôn ngữ giao tiếp quốc tế. Thuộc địa của nhiều bộ phận
của thế giới của Anh đã có một cái gì đó để làm với nó, nhưng nó chủ yếu là do sự gia tăng của Mỹ
vào vị trí quyền lực chính trên thế giới. Điều này đã giúp truyền bá văn hố nổi tiếng của Mỹ trên tồn
thế giới mang tiếng với nó.

But is it good that English has spread to all parts of the world so quickly? Language specialists seem to
be divided over this issue. There are those who claim that it is important to have a language that the
people in our increasingly globalized world have in common. According to others, English is
associated with a particular culture and therefore promotes that culture at the expense of others.
Linguists have suggested “Esperanto”, an artificially put-together language, as a solution to
international communication problems but without success. So English will continue being the world
language until some other language, maybe Chinese, which is the most widely-spoken native language
in the world, takes over as the world’s international language instead of English.

Nhưng là nó tốt mà tiếng Anh đã lan rộng đến tất cả các nơi trên thế giới một cách nhanh chóng?
Chun gia ngơn ngữ dường như được chia về vấn đề này. Có những người cho rằng điều quan trọng
là phải có một ngơn ngữ mà mọi người trong thế giới ngày càng toàn cầu của chúng tơi có điểm
chung. Theo những người khác, tiếng Anh được gắn liền với một nền văn hóa đặc biệt và do đó thúc
đẩy nền văn hóa tại các chi phí của người khác. Ngôn ngữ học đã đề nghị "Esperanto", một ngôn ngữ
nhân tạo thỏa với nhau, như là một giải pháp cho vấn đề truyền thông quốc tế nhưng khơng thành
cơng. Vì vậy, tiếng Anh sẽ tiếp tục trở thành ngôn ngữ trên thế giới cho đến khi một số ngơn ngữ khác,
có lẽ Trung Quốc, đó là ngơn ngữ bản địa rộng rãi nhất nói trên thế giới, phải mất hơn như là ngôn
ngữ quốc tế của thế giới thay vì tiếng Anh.

C. Esperanto is not a natural language. D. Esperanto is becoming more and more popular.

A. English is easier to learn than Chinese.

B. English will probably be replaced as an international language.

C. Chinese is going to be the next language of international communication.
D. Chinese is growing in popularity among non-native speakers.

5. What would be a good title for this passage?

A. English in the future. B. English as an international language.
C. English language means English culture. D. English - a difficult language to learn.
