I hoped I could also have it. One day I saw a second-hand bicycle, that was only one hundred yuan. I asked my father the money. But he said he could only give me half of the money. He should find the other half myself. So I went to sell newspapers after the school. My father was pleased if I showed him the money a month after. He gives me the other fifty. You can imagine how happy I was when I rode to school by my own bicycle.

If you ask people to name one person who had the greatest effect on the English language, you will get answers like “Shakespeare” “Samuel Johnson” and “Webster”， but none of these men had any effect at all compared to a man who didn’t even speak English - William the Conqueror. Before 1066, in the land we now call Great Britain lived people belonging to two major language groups.In the westcentral region lived the Welsh, who spoke a Celtic language, and in the north lived the Scots, whose language, though not the same as Welsh, was also Celtic.In the rest of the country lived the Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos, Saxons, and other Germanic and Nordic peoples, who spoke what we now call AngloSaxon (or Old English), a Germanic language.If this state of affairs had lasted, English today would have been close to German. But this state of affairs did not last. In 1066 the Normans led by William defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England. For about a century, French became the official language of England while Old English became the language of peasants. As a result, English words of politics and the law come from French rather than German. In some cases, modern English even shows a distinction between upperclass French and lowerclass AngloSaxon in its words.We even have different words for some foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in the fields or at home ready to be cooked, which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants were doing farming, while the upperclass Normans were doing most of eating. When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more “foreign” than France because the German they see on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than French does. Few realize that the English language is actually Germanic at its beginning and that the French influences are all the result of the man’s ambition (野心). 1.The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before 1066 were ____. A.Welsh and Scottish B.Nordic and Germanic C.Celtic and Old English D.AngloSaxon and Germanic 2.Which of the following groups of words is, by inference, rooted in French? A.president, lawyer, beef B.president, bread, water C.bread, field, sheep D.folk, field, cow 3.Why does French appear less foreign than German to Americans on their first visit to Europe? A.Many French words are similar to English ones. B.They know little of the history of the English language. C.Most advertisements in France appear in English. D.They know French better than German.
