ENGLISH SPELLING

Why does English spelling have a reputation for being difficult? English was first written down when Christian monks came to England in Anglo-Saxon (61)........................... They used the 23 letters of Latin to write down the sounds of Anglo-Saxon speech as they heard it. However, English has a (62).......................... range of basic sounds (over 40) than Latin. The alphabet was too small, and so combinations of letters were needed to (63).......................... the different sounds. Inevitably, there were inconsistencies in the way that letters were combined.

With the Norman invasion of England, the English language was put (64).......................... risk. English survived, but the spelling of many English words changed to follow French (65).........................., and many French words were patterns into the language. The result was more irregularity.

When the printing press was (66).......................... in the fifteenth century, many early printers of English texts spoke other first languages. They made little effort to respect English spelling. Although one of the short-term (67).......................... of printing was to produce a number variant spellings, in the long term it created fixed spellings. People became used to seeing words spelt in the same way. Rules were drawn up, and dictionaries were put together which printers and writers could (68)..........................to. However, spoken English was not fixed and continued to change slowly - just as it still does now. Letters that were sounded in the Anglo - Saxon period, like the "k" in "knife", now became (69).......................... Also, the pronunciation of vowels then had little in common with how they sound now, but the way they are spelt hasn't changed. No (70).........................., then, that it is often difficult to see the link between sound and spelling.

II. Read the text below and think of the word which best fits each space: (100.2 =2.0 pts)

ALL WORK AND NO PLAY

Universally, work has been a central forcus point in society. As old (71)………….……….. the idea of work itself is the question of what constitutes "real work". This is, in fact, a very subjective question indeed. Were you to ask a miner, (72)………….……….. any labourer for that matter, what real work is, he would probably reply that real work entails working (73)………….………..your hands and, in the process, getting them dirty. To the average blue-collar, white-collar workers are those people who sit in their offices day after day doing little or (74)………….……….. in the line of actual work. By contrast if you approached a white-collar worker or a professional of some sort with (75)………….……….. same question, you can rest assured that they would adamantly maintain that the world would stop revolving (76)………….……….. their invaluable intellectual contribution to the scheme of things. This idea is reflected (77)………….……….. the vocabulary used to describe work and its related subjects. Words (78)………….……….. career, vocation and profession carry a (79)………….……….. elevated connotation than the simple term "job". The former three lexical items convey the idea of learned persons sitting at desks and using their grey matter to solve matters involving financial, legal or medical matters, (80)………….……….. the humble slave away at some mundane work station or assembly line task.

-> Your answers:

III. Choose the best option A, B, C, or D to answer the following questions: (50.2=1.0 pt)

Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the need of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two thirds of the world’s population live within 80 kms of the sea coast.

In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many of man’s needs. The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. A lot of valuable minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined.

Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental people.

Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.

Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible. The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2050s the problems that prevent us from fully exploiting the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.

81. The best title for this passage is ……………..…..

82. The major things that the sea offers man are ……………..…..

83. The sea serves the needs of man because ……………..…..

84. The word Oriental people in the fourth paragraph probably means ……………..…..

85. We can conclude from the passage that ……………..…..

A. the sea resources have largely been used up.

B. the sea, in a broad sense, hasn’t yet been developed.

C. the problems that prevent us from fully exploiting the sea have already been solved.

D. by the year 2050, the technology will be good enough to exploit all the sea resources.
