The obvious risk is that the company you ___1___
23
will fold and you will lose everything. The other type of risk is that the value of your investment can change. Some investments ___2___ wildly: one month they are worth four times that you ___3___, the next month they are worth only one quarter of the money you put in. If you have to ___4___ your money out at the wrong time, you lose lots. Numerous studies have shown that, on the average high-risk investors make more than low-risk ones. Over a time the stock market ___5___ them for sticking their necks out, and sometimes getting them chopped off. Even during the 1980s, the ___6___ of the stock market crash, one study shows that over the whole of the ten years ___7___ outperformed lower-risk fixed interest and property investments.

Above all B. In all C. In other words D. In short Towards the end of the last century, there emerged a world language known as Esperanto(世界语). It was said this was a invention of some idealists who wished to ___1___ the language to promote human solidarity. However, like crops, language can not be manufactured in a laboratory, it must ___2___ in national life. Admittedly the lofty ideal was worthy of respect, and had been in vogue for quite a while, ___3___, not many now know the language and very few use it. Due to historical and geographical reasons, the English language is still the most extensively used language today. This is due ___4___ to the fact that Great Britain had once been an Empire where the sun never sets, at the same time, it must be acknowledged that among the different western languages, English is comparatively easier to learn. For example, English nouns make no stress ___5___ sexual distinction. Therefore there is no flexion of adjectives for a difference in the sex of the noun. Neither is there a nasal sound in pronunciation. But English as a language also has its peculiar difficulties. First, it is not quite regular, it has ___6___ many idioms born of habitual use. Therefore when you consult a dictionary, you can not dwell on the words only, ___7___ equal importance is that you need to grasp their usage. For instance, there are some verbs whose meanings change when the prepositions following them change. I began learning English from an American sister-in-law of ___8___ when I was nine years of age. Later on both in the American missionary high school and univerysity which I attended, I was taught English by direct method. ___9___ I had never studied English grammar seriously.
