Michael happened to be on a train sitting next to a young man who seemed worried. Finally the young man told Michael that he was a convict (罪犯) returning home from a distant prison (監獄). His behavior had brought shame (羞恥) on his family, and they had neither visited him nor written to him. He hoped, however, that it was only because they were too poor to travel and too busy to write. When he was set free he had written to tell them he wanted to go home. To make matters easy for them, however, he had asked them to put up a signal (信號) for him when the train passed their little farm. If the family had forgiven (原諒) him, they were to put up a white ribbon in the big apple tree near the railway. If they didn’t want him back, they were to do nothing, and he would stay on the train, and go far away. As the train neared his hometown his suspense became so great that he couldn’t stand and he was afraid to look out of the window. He asked Michael to watch for the big apple tree. They changed seats. In a minute, Michael put his hand on the young convict’s shoulder. "There it is," he said, his eyes filled with sudden tears. "It’s all right. The whole tree is white with ribbons." () 61.

More and more non-native speakers use it to communicate with native speakers. So there is a basic question about learning English that we have to answer. Should you try to achieve native-speakers’accuracy (準確), or just effective (有效的) communication without perfection (完美)? Offshore English is a kind of language spoken largely by non-native speakers. It often appears in international business situations. Other languages influence (影響) Offshore English so that some expressions sound a little strange. Although native-speakers don’t speak this way, they can still understand it. For example, "I am working for my company since three years" is not grammatically correct. The sentence includes two mistakes common to many people who speak English as a foreign language, but there is no danger of misunderstanding what the speaker means. Many non-native speakers of English speak less than 100% accurate English. If the meaning is clear, then it is not necessary to worry too much about it. Some mistakes, however, are serious, and can cause misunderstandings or problems. English learners need to pay attention to them. For example, "I’ll give it to him when I see him" is a serious mistake if the speaker really means "I’ll give it to him if I see him". Many English learners would like to be as accurate in the language as possible. However, their target level depends a lot on who they need to communicate with. In actual business practice, they may find that if they deal only with other non-native speakers, effective communication does not require (要求) a native-speaker level of accuracy. () 66. Which of the following information is TRUE according to the passage? A. New kinds of English have been created by native speakers. B. English learners should try to achieve (達到) a native speaker’s level of English. C. Communication in English should be perfect. D. A lot of imperfect English is still understood. () 67. Offshore English ______. A. is a sort of accurate English B. is mostly spoken by natives C. is often heard in political situations D. sounds strange sometimes () 68. The example in the third paragraph ______. A. tells us about a new kind of English that is appearing B. shows us that a language can’t be learnt without accuracy C. shows us that some mistakes don’t change the speaker’s meaning D. tells us that some mistakes will cause misunderstandings () 69. The last paragraph is mainly about ______. A. whether English learners need to speak accurate English or not B. how non-native speakers can achieve effective communication C. whether accurate English will have an influence on one’s business D. how non-accurate English come about (出現) () 70. What is the author’s attitude toward accurate English? A. Negative. B. Positive. C. Neutral (中立的). D. Unclear. D A long time ago, there was a seed (種子) and because he was only a seed, nobody noticed him. Thus, feeling inferior (低級的), the seed gave no importance to his existence (存在). Then one day, a wind picked him up and threw him on an open field in the sun. Later, he was given rain. Years later he saw a traveler sitting by his side. "Thank you God for this. I really need some rest," he heard the traveler say. "What are you talking about?" the seed quickly asked. He thought the man was making fun of him. No one ever spoke to him like that. "Who just spoke?" the shocked man asked. "It is me. A seed." "A seed?" The man looked at the big tree. "Are you joking? You are not a seed. You are a big tree!" "Really?" "Yes! Why else do you think people come here?" "What do they come here for?" "To feel your shade (樹陰)! Don’t tell me you didn’t know you had grown over time." A moment passed before the traveler’s words brought him pride. The seed thought and smiled for the first time in his life. The years of torture (折磨) by the sun and the rain finally helped him grow up. "Oh! That means I’m not a little seed anymore! I was actually born to make people feel comfortable. Wow! That’s great!"
