Part II Reading Comprehension ( 24 minutes )
Section A
Directions: In this section, there is a passage with several blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.
The story of our English language is typically one of 21 stealing from other languages. That is why English today has an 22 vocabulary of over one million words, while other major languages have far fewer.
French, for example, has only about 75,000 words, and that includes English expressions like snack bar and hit parade. The French, however, do not like borrowing foreign words because they think it 23 their language. The government tries to ban words from English and declares that Walkman is not 24 ; so they invent a word, balladeur, which French kids are supposed to say instead — but they don't.
Walkman is 25 because it isn't even English. 26 , it was invented by the Japanese 27 who put two simple English words together to name their product. That doesn't bother us, but it does bother the French. Such is the 28 messiness of English. That happy 29 that willingness to accept
words from anywhere, explains the richness of English and why it has become, 30 , the first truly global language.
A) fascinating B) to sum up C) massive D) manufacturers E) competition F) desirable G) estimated H) tolerance I) sincere J) Strictly speaking K) corrupts L) glorious M) making sense N) to a very real extent O) decade
