PART: READING
I. Read the following passage and answer the questions below (0.5 pt).
Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of few speakers to become
the dominant language of international communication. English as we know it today
emerged around 1350, after having incorporated many elements of French that was
introduced following the Norman invasion of 1066. Until the 1600s, English was, for the
most part, spoken only in England and had not extended even as far as Wales, Scotland or
Ireland. However, during the course of the next two centuries, English began to spread
around the globe as a result of exploration, trade (including slave trade), colonization, and
missionary work. Thus, small enclaves of English speakers became established and grew
in various parts of the world. As these communities proliferated, English gradually
became the primary language of international business, banking and diplomacy.
Currently, about 80% of the information stored on computer systems worldwide is in
English. Two – thirds of the world’s science writing is in English, and English is the main
language of technology, advertising, media, international airports, and air traffic
controllers. Today there are more than 700 million English users in the world, and over
half of these are non-native speakers, constituting the largest number of non-native users
than any language in the world.
1. What is the main topic of this passage?
A. The number of non-native users of English
B. The French influence on the English language
C. The expansion of English as an international language
D. The use of English for science and technology

2. The word “emerged” in paragraph 1 means________.

A. appeared B. hailed C. frequented D. engaged
3. Approximately, when did English begin to be used beyond England?
A. in 1066 B. around 1350 C. before 1600 D. after 1600
4. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “stored” in paragraph 2?
A. bought B. saved C. spent D. valued
5. According to the passage, approximately how many non-native users of English are
there in the world today?
A. a quarter million B. half a million C. 350 million D. 700 million
