Nadia Comaneci, a famous gymnast(体操运动员), was born in Romania in 1961.

C 【解析】句意“多糟糕的一天啊!我刚刚修的自行车看样子又出问题了”。先行词在从句中做宾语,构成“have sth done”结构,即“have the car repaired”。根据just now可知,用一般过去时,排除A和B。在定语从句中,关系代词代指先行词在从句中做一个成分,且that在定语从句中做宾语时可省,所以不用it做宾语,排除D。故选C。

A History of English...in Five Words

In 1582, Richard Mulcaster, headmaster of a British school, wrote that the English would not go beyond their island. However, it didn't stay that way. Today, English is spoken all over the world.

English is a colorful and diverse (多样的) language that long has picked up words from many other languages. Here are five words that show the English language’s interesting history. English

English began in the language spoken by the early Germanic people in the fifth century AD. It is from them that the word “English” comes. First it is the Latin word Angli which means the people of Angul, where the Germanic people were from.

Beef

Although roast beef is seen as a traditional English dish, the word “beef” was introduced from the French boeuf during the Middle Ages. It was one of a group of words, including pork and mutton, that were taken from the speech of the French who moved in Britain following the Norman Conquest (诺曼底登陆) of 1066. However, the farmers who kept these living things continued to call them by their old English names: cow, pig and sheep. This difference passes on till today.

Dictionary

Dictionary is a borrowing from Latin dictornarius liber, “book of words”; It first appeared in English in the 6th century, along with a huge number of other words from Latin and Greek. The first English dictionary was written by Robert Cawdrey in 1604. Cawdrey focused only on the difficult words whose meanings would have caused problems for those not educated in Latin and Greek.

Tea

Tea was brought into Britain early in the 17th century, becoming very popular by the 1650s. By the 18th century it had become a symbol(标志) of fashionable society and a best-selling of the coffee house culture.

The word tea rises from the Chinese word cha. A love of tea is so ingrained (根深蒂固的) in British life that the expression “cup of tea” has come to stand for anything viewed positively. The saying “It’s not my cup of tea.” means: I don’t like it.

Emoji

Emoji began developing in Japan in the 1990s for use by teenagers: the word “emoji” comes from the Japanese e “picture” + moji “letter”. Its successful acceptance in English has been helped by its similarity to words with the e-prefix (前缀) like e-mail. The Unicode Consortium’s (统一码 联盟的) official lists emojis and their meanings, but users keep finding creative new ways to employ them. Emojis are just another example of the development and diversity of English.

1.What language is the word “beef ” from?

2.Who wrote the first English dictionary?

3.What does “it’s not my cup of tea” mean?

4.Why is the word “emoji ” successfully accepted in English?

5.What makes English a colorful and diverse language?

1.French. 2.Robert Cawdrey. 3.I don’t like it. 4.Because of its similarity to English words with the e-predix. 5.Picking up words from many other languages. /Acceptance words from many oth...
