English is spoken as a first language by most people in the USA, Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and Canada. However, English is spoken all over the world. It is the main language in over 60 countries, such as India, Singapore and in many of the Caribbean and Pacific islands. In those places English is often a second language.
English is also as an important international language in many other countries, like China and Japan. People in these countries use it for business, and travelers to these countries use English when they get there. Other people may learn English because they enjoy reading books in English, listening to British or American music or watching American films.
English has changed a lot these years and still goes on changing. It is no longer right to talk about British English or American English if the speaker doesn’t come from those countries. People in Japan or Korea, for example, may use the American spelling but may not sound like Americans.
English will be the most widely used language in the world in the 21st century. This language no longer belongs to British, American or Australian speakers. It belongs to anyone who can use this language. After you leave school, you will almost certainly need it.

It is sometimes said that the English are Polite People. This can make life difficult for foreigners. Suppose a foreign boy asks an English girl to go out with him and she says,“If I finish my work, I’ll meet you in the cafe at 7 o’clock.”Is she saying“yes”or“no”to his invitation?
In grammatical terms, she is using the conditional structure. By using the conditional, speakers of English can avoid giving a “yes” or “no” answer to a question. It enables people to be diplomatic. If the girl doesn’t want to go out with the boy, she won’t turn up at the cafe. She will let him understand she is still working. If she wants to go out with him, but doesn’t want to appear too easy to catch, she has achieved that with her reply. But in this case, as she uses the first conditional which shows probability, she is quite likely to turn up at the cafe. Being polite can make life very difficult!
The conditional is often used by people in the news—politicians, for example—who wish to avoid speaking out their ideas. This is very important if they are on their way to discuss an agreement. No one wants to give away his or her points before he or she starts. A government spokesman might say to a group of workers, “If we could pay you more, we would.”The use of the conditional here makes room for argument although the speaker is using the second conditional form, which shows improbability. So it is unlikely the workers will get their rise.
“If” is a small word, which appears often in the English language. It can show politeness, reported speech and conditionals such as the First—probability—if I can come to your party, I will; the Second—improbability—if I saw you tomorrow, I’d give you the book; and the Third—impossibility（meaning it is too late to change something that has happened）—if you have told me , I would have helped you .
注: conditional structure 表示条件的句式 avoid 避免 diplomatic 婉转的
achieve 达到 politician 政客

A. clearer B. quicker C. more polite D. more exciting
（ ）72. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

B. Usually English girls are not easy to catch.
C. English people never speak out their ideas in public.

A. the workers will make more money B. the spokesman doesn’t give any promise

A. The conditional in communication B. how to invite a girl in Britain
C. British people and their life D. some language points in daily English

Do you like Fuwa, the mascots(吉祥物) of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games? Are they cute? What do they look like? Here’s a letter from IOC(国际奥委会) President Rogge：
Hello
Beijing, Hello China. And a special hello to all the children and young people
who may be watching this show because this day is for you! By now you've met
your new little friends—the Five Friendlies.
I've been making friends with new Olympic mascots for about forty
years. And so I can say that this is a tremendous（不平凡的）
day on China's Olympic journey. The Five Friendlies are an
incredible（出色的） little
family, chosen carefully by Beijing 2008 to represent（代表） all of China, and to carry a
message of friendship to the children of the world.
Beijing is lucky to have so many beautiful animals to represent the Olympic spirit. When I look at this little group, I see joy. I see kids playing. And I see fun. Lots of fun. I love them all. And I love the story that they're carrying traditional Chinese blessings all over the world.
If I've got my Chinese mythology（神话）right, Beibei (the left one in the first row) will bring you prosperity（繁荣）. Jingjing (the middle one in the first row) will bring you happiness. Huanhuan (the right one in the first row) will fill you with passion（热情）. Yingying (the left one in the second row) will give you good health. And Nini (the right one in the second row) will bring you good luck. How's that a great blessing.
And I can't wait till they come to visit me in Lausanne（罗桑，瑞士西部城市）. I can see in their smiles that they love fun and games. And I'm sure they'll get along really well with all my friends here.
I believe that this little family of Friendlies—the fish (Beibei), the panda ( Jingjing), the flame (Huanhuan), the Tibet antelope (Yingying) and the swallow(Nini) —will become the most popular mascots in Olympic history, especially when the children of China begin to play with them.
And now as I end this message, let me offer my congratulations to the leadership of Beijing 2008 for selecting such a great and friendly group of mascots. You've certainly touched my heart with your choices. And I'm sure the Five Friendlies will touch the heart of the world.
Thank you and have a great day in China
