If English hadnt changed for a long time, we wont have words to describe telephones, washing machines, computers or some other new things.Language changes for several reasons. First, it changes because the needs of its speaker change. New technologies, new products, and new experiences need new words to express them clearly. Another reason for change is that different people have different language experiences. People use different sets of words and expressions, because they have different ages, jobs, education levels(水平) and so on.How does language develop then? On the one hand, many of the languages changes begin with young people. When young people communicate with others of their own age, their language grows in grammar, words and expressions that are different from the older peoples. Some have a short lifetime but others can influence the language for long. On the other hand, we get new words in many different ways. We borrow them from other languages, we create them by making words shorter or combining words and we make them out of proper names.Languages that dont change over time are considered dead languages. The fact that English changes so much shows that it is alive and well.38 . What does the writer think of the change and development of language?He thinks it is.39 . Why do people use different sets of words and expressions according to the passage?Because theirand education levels are different.40 . How many reasons for language change are mentioned in this passage?The writer mentionsreasons.41 . How do young people help develop language?They do it when theyothers of their own age.42 . What is considered a dead language according to the passage?The one thatover time is considered a dead language.六、将所给单词连成句子连词成句：43 . is , from, she, America_.44 . mother, a teacher, is, at, my, a school_。45 . there, on the, are, computers, desks _?46 . students, how many, are, in your class, there_?47 .
