A language never stands still .It is always changing and developing. These changes are rapid in primitive(原始的) societies, but slow in advanced ones, because the invention of printing and the spread of education have fixed a traditional usage. The only important change that English has undergone(遭受) since the 16th century is a large increase in its vocabulary. It is interesting to trace the different ways in which new words are invented. Let us take just two
English words and see how they were made: sandwich and television.
Sandwich, is now no longer an entirely English word, but also international, comes from the Earl of Sandwich(died in1792),who invented the particular form of quick meal so that he could go on gambling all through the night without stopping for dinner. Many names of things are in facts taken from the name of the first inventors, for example, the electrical terms Walt and Volt.
Television is one of many new scientific words which are invented from old Greek and Latin words.“Tele”in Greek, mean “far , while“vision”comes from the Latin verb, meaning“to see”.
1.The word “stand” in the first sentence means_
A. is a certain condition B. not sits
C. remains without change D. rises to the feet
2. What do you think Volt was? He was_
A. a player B. a physicist C, a writer D. a nurse

Big Brothers Big Sisters is based on the simplicity and power(力量) of friendship.It is a program which provides friendship and fun by matching vulnerable young people (ages 7-17) with a volunteer adult who can be both a role model and a supportive friend.
Volunteer tutors come from all walks of life—married, single, with or without children. Big Brothers and Big Sisters are not replacement parents or social workers. They are tutors: someone to trust, to have fun with, to talk and go to when needed.
A Big Sister and Little Sister will generally spend between one and four hours together three or four times each month for at least twelve months.
