Japanese young today study English for six years at junior and senior high

school, but very little can speak it by the time they graduate. If the Japanese

want to acquire practice oral skills, they have to do a conscientious effort by

themselves as going abroad or taking English conversation classes in their

private country. In Japan, grammar is emphasized too much at Japanese high

school, and there is no balance with the speaking language. People study

English mainly for passing exams. They're so tied to grammar teaching in

the textbooks that they find spoken English naturally very difficult. They

should consider English more as a means of communication than of a

science.

Scientists have established that influenza viruses took from man can cause

the disease in animals. On addition, man can catch the disease from animals.

In fact, a great number in wild birds seem to carry the virus without show

any evidences of illness. Some scientists conclude that a large family of

influenza viruses may have evolved in the bird kingdom, a group that has

been in the earth 100 million years and is able to carry the virus without

contracting the disease. There is even convincing evidence showing that

virus strains are transmitted from place on place and from continent to

continent by migrating birds. It is known which two influenza viruses can

recombine when both are present in an animal at the same time. The result of

such recombination is a great vary of strains containing different H and N

spikes. This raises the possibility that a human influenza virus can recombine

with an influenza virus from a lower animal to produce an entirely new

spike. Research is underway to determine if that is the way that major new

strains come into being. Other possibility is that two animals influenza

strains may recombine in a pig, for example, to produce a new strains which

is transmitted to man.

<b>English - The International Language</b>

There are more than 3.000 languages on the world today, but only six are major languages of
the world. Two-thirds of the world’s population speak those six languages. More than
300.000.000 people speak English as their first and native language. Another 300.000.000 speak
it like a second language. No one knows how many people speak it as a foreign language.
Chinese is the only language with more speakers that English. This is because of the huge
population of China, more than one billion people. English is the native or official language on
one-five of the land area of the world. It is spoken in North America, Great Britain, Australia, and
New Zealand. In South Africa and India it is one of the office languages.

English is the language of international communication. It is the language in

international business, research, and science. More than three-fourths of the

world’s radio station use English. More than half of the scientific and

research journals are in English. Most other language have borrowed many

English words. Why did English become the international language ? In the

middle of the nineteenth century, French is the international language. Then

Britain became very powerful in the world. England started colonies in North

America and India in the nineteen century. By 1990 England also had

colonies in other parts of Asia, Africa, and the South Pacific. The people in

the colonies had to use English. Slowly it become more important than

French internationally. After the Second world War, the United States

became very powerful, and even more people began to learn English. Is

English a good international language ? It has more word than any other

language. The grammar is simpler than in the other major languages.

However, English spelling is difficulty. Foreigners all have trouble spelling

English. So do native speakers ! Since 1880, people have intented over fifty

artifical language. No one speaks them as a native language. However, none

of them has ever become popular. Some people don’t want to study English,

but it is the international language. There is no way changing that now.

<b>IV. There're ten mistakes in this passage. Find them and correct them.</b>

The word laser was coined as an acronym to Light Amplification by the stimulated
Emission of Radiation. Ordinary light, from the Sun or a light bulb, is emitted spontaneously,
when atoms or molecules get rid of the excess energy by themselves, without any outside
intervention. Stimulated emission is difference because it occurs when an atom or molecule
holding onto excess energy has been stimulated to emit it as light.

Albert Einstein was the first suggest the existence of stimulated emission in a paper
published in 1917. However, for many years, physicists thought that atoms and molecules always
were much more likely to emit light spontaneously and that stimulated emission thus always
would be much weak. It was not until after the Second World War that physicists began trying to
make stimulated emission dominate. They sought ways by which one atom or molecule could

stimulate many other to emit light, amplifying it to much higher powers.

The first to succeed was Charles H. Townes, then at Columbia University in New York.
Instead of working with light, however, he works with microwaves, which have a much longer
wavelength, and built a device he called a “maser”, for Microwave Amplification by the Stimulated
Emission of Radiation. Although he thought of the key idea in 1951, the first maser was not
completed until a couple of years laterly. Before long, many other physicists were building
masers and trying to discover to produce stimulated emission at even shorter wavelengths.

The key concepts emerged about 1957. Townes and Arthur Schawlow,

then at Bell Telephone Laboratories, wrote a long paper outlining the

conditions needed to amplify stimulated emission of visible light waves. At

about a same time, similar ideas crystallized in the mind of Gordon Gould,

then a 37-year-old graduate student at Columbia, who wrote them down in a

series of notebooks. Townes and Schawlow published their ideas in a

scientific journal, Physical Review Letters, but Gould filed a patent

application. Three decade later, people still argue about who deserves the

credit for the concept of the laser.

Six year ago when I was a student, I was short for money. So once a week I had to go
home to see my parents and get a decent meal. Although I had a good relationship to my
mother, I never got in well with my father. I could never live up to him high expectations of
me. One day I did a very terrible thing. I stole some money of him. I asked him if he could lend
me ten pounds. He refused to say he had already give me enough and it was time I became
more responsible to money. You know what it is as being a student. I'd run out of money and
wanted to take a girl away. When he refused I accused him off being mean. And we have had
a terrible row. He left the house and I was so angrily that I stolen ten pounds from his wallet.

<b>When he found in that the money was gone, he knew who had done</b>
<b>it and banned me from the house. Since then I have returned but he has</b>
<b>never really forgiven me and still looked down on me for that I did. My</b>

At the age of sixty-five, Laura Ingalls Wilder began writing a sery of novels for young people
based in her early experiences on the American frontier. Born in the state of Wiscosin in 1867,
she or her family were rugged pioneers. Seeking better farm land, they went by covered wagon
to Missouri in 1869, then on to Kansas the next year, return to Wisconsin in 1871, and travelling
on to Minnesota and Lowa before settling permanently in South Dakota in 1879. Because off this
continuing moving, Wilder's early education took place sporadically in a succession of one-room
schools. From age thirteen to sixteen she attended a school more regularly although she never
graduated.

At the age of eighteen, she married Almanzo James Wilder. They bought the small farm in the
Ozarks, where they remained for the rest of their live. Their only daughter, Rose, who had
become a nationally known journalist, encouraged her mother to write. Serving like agent and
editor, Rose negotiated with Harper's to publish her mother's first book, Little House on the Big
Woods. Seven more books followed, each chronicling her early life on the plains. Written from
the perspective of a child, they have remained popular to young readers from many nations.
Twenty years after her death in 1957, more than 20 million copies had been sold, and they had
been translated into fourteen languages. In 1974, a weekly television series, "Little House on
the Prairie ", was produced based on the stories from the Wilder books.

<b>Regrets</b>

obligations. How many times have we all said, "I wish I had remembered!" How often have we
offended people by failing to remember their birthdays or name days?

Although they say it doesn't matter, we know, deep down, that we have hurt their
feelings. We can always try to make it up to them next time but unfortunately the damage has
been done and our relationship with that person can never quite be the same again.

In the other hand, we sometimes do too much for someone else because we want to
please them and then feel we have damaged our own interests in doing so. When friends are
involved we may find it difficulty to say "no" when they ask us to do them a favour, but true
friend should mean that we can say "no" without risk to relationship.

Advertising has come into existence for the beginning of period when people did not use
the barter system, but bought and sold. Before the inventions of newspapers, radio and
television, merchant and salesmen used to shout or singing about things that they were selling.
Those who were hired to advertise things as that were called criers. They even used musical
instruments when crying about their wares. Today, some vendors still do so.

Nowadays, newspaper and magazines are full off advertisements

which look attraction and sound interesting. There is no channel on T.V or on

the radio without advertisement. Along the streets posters are installed for

advertising with many eye-catching pictures. In the store windows, goods at

all kinds are displayed and available for every taste. Computers have become

the most modern device for advertising. Customers even can buy things on

using the internet.
