　　Anne’s Best Friend Do you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts? Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or would not understand what you are going through? Anne Frank wanted the first kind, so she made her diary her best friend. Anne lived in Amsterdam in the Netherlands during World War Ⅱ. Her family was Jewish so nearly twenty-five months before they were discovered. During that time the only true friend was her diary. She said, ”I don’t want to set down a series of facts in a diary as most people do, but I want this diary itself to be my friend, and I shall call my friend Kitty.” Now read how she felt after being in the hiding place since July 1942. Thursday 15th June, 1944 Dear Kitty, I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a deep blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound. That’s changed since I was here. …For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven in order to have a good look at the moon by my self. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn’t dare open a window. Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs at dusk when the window was open. I didn’t go downstairs until the window bad to be shut. The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face… …Sadly …I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtains hanging before very dusty windows. It’s no pleasure looking through these any longer because nature is one thing that really must be experienced. Yours, Anne

第一單元 友誼Reading 安妮最好的

　　朋友 你是不是想有一位無話不談能推心置腹的朋友呢?或者你是不是擔心你的朋友會嘲笑你，會不理解你目前的困境呢?安妮·弗蘭克想要的是第一種類型的朋友，于是她就把日記當成了她最好的朋友。 安妮在第二次世界大戰期間住在荷蘭的阿姆斯特丹。她一家人都是猶太人，所以他們不得不躲藏起來，否則他們就會被德國納粹抓去。她和她的家人躲藏了兩年之后才被發現。在這段時間里，她唯一的忠實朋友就是她的日記了。她說，“我不愿像大多數人那樣在日記中記流水賬。我要把這本日記當作我的朋友，我要把我這個朋友稱作基蒂”。安妮自從1942年7月起就躲藏在那兒了，現在，來看看她的心情吧。 親愛的基蒂： 我不知道這是不是因為我長久無法出門的緣故，我變得對一切與大自然有關的事物都無比狂熱。我記得非常清楚，以前，湛藍的天空、鳥兒的歌唱、月光和鮮花，從未令我心迷神往過。自從我來到這里，這一切都變了。 比方說，有天晚上天氣很暖和，我熬到11點半故意不睡覺，為的是獨自好好看看月亮。但是因為月光太亮了，我不敢打開窗戶。還有一次，就在五個月以前的一個晚上，我碰巧在樓上，窗戶是開著的。我一直等到非關窗不可的時候才下樓去。漆黑的夜晚，風吹雨打，雷電交加，我全然被這種力量鎮住了。這是我一年半以來第一次目睹夜晚 令人傷心的是我只能透過臟兮兮的窗簾觀看大自然，窗簾懸掛在沾滿灰塵的窗前，但觀看這些已經不再是樂趣，因為大自然是你必須親身體驗的。 Using Language Reading, listening and writing 親愛的王小姐： 我同班上的同學有件麻煩事。我跟我們班里的一位男同學一直相處很好，我們常常一起做家庭作業，而且很樂意相互幫助。我們成了非常好的朋友?？墒?，其他同學卻開始在背后議論起來，他們說我和這位男同學在談戀愛，這使我很生氣。我不想中斷這段友誼，但是我又討厭人家背后說閑話。我該怎么辦呢? Reading and writing 尊敬的編輯： 我是蘇州高中的一名學生。我有一個難題，我不太善于同人們交際。雖然我的確試著去跟班上的同學交談，但是我還是發現很難跟他們成為好朋友。因此，有時候我感到十分孤獨。我確實想改變這種現狀，但是我卻不知道該怎么辦。如果您能給我提些建議，我會非常感激的。

　　the Road to Modern English At the end of the 16th century, about five to seven million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived in England. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer other parts of the world, and because of that, English began to be spoken in many other countries. Today, more people speak English as their first, second or a foreign language than ever before. Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don’t speak the same kind of English. Look at this example: British Betty: Would you like to see my flat? American Amy: Yes. I’d like to come up to you apartment. So why has English changed over time? Actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and communicate with each other. At fist the English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was base more on German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually between about AD 500 and 1150, English became less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers enriched the English language and especially its vocabulary. So by the 1600’s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia to. English began to be spoken in both countries. Finally by the 19th century the language was settled. At that time two big changes in English spelling happened: first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The American Dictionary of the English language. The latter gave a separate identity to American English spelling. English now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia. For example, India has a very large number of fluent English speakers because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. During that time English became the language for government and education. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in Africa such as South Africa. Today the number of people learning English in China is increasing rapidly. In fact, China may have the largest number of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time will tell.
