Это явление приобретает угрожающие размеры ( scale ).1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.EXERCISE 13 Translate into Russian with the help of a dictionary (in writing).It is evident that the story of all languages is full of surprises. The year the Anglo-Saxonsfirst crossed the sea to the former Roman province of Britannia, in AD 450, the odds againstEnglish becoming a world language were about a million to one. It was then an obscure subbranch of the Germanic family of languages and not even native to the British Isles. Alanguage that was born of invasion later itself became an invader on a global scale.Supple in grammar, maddeningly inconsistent in spelling and pronunciation, English hasits strengths and weaknesses.
English as a world language is sustained by another elusivequality - its own peculiar genius. The arts of speech and literature have been perhaps thespecial contribution of the English people to European culture, or at least the one for which20they are most respected! This, needless to say, may have something to do with the history ofthe language.
After the Norman invasion, English was neglected by the Latin-writing andFrench-speaking authorities; from the earliest times it was naturally the language of protestand dissent, the language of the many rather than the few. One cannot deny that, its geniuswas, and still is, essentially democratic. It has given expression to the voice of freedom fromWat Tyler, to Tom Paine, to Thomas Jefferson, to Edmund Burke, to the Chartists, toAbraham Lincoln, to the Suffragettes, to Winston Churchill, to Martin Luther King. It iswell equipped to be a world language, to give voice to the aspirations of the Third World asmuch as the intercommunication of the First World.TEXT ANALYSISEXERCISE 1 Underline the topic sentence of each paragraph and identify thecontrolling idea of each sentence.Note: the topic sentence may occupy the place either at the top or at the bottom of theparagraph.
