27、 Language changes all the time. New words and phrases appear and develop. The words and pronunciations used by young people in UK can be different to those used by grown-ups Living in a multicultural(多元文化的) society has an effect on language, especially on young people, whose friends are often from a mix of backgrounds. TV and music also have big influence on the language of the young. Often UK singers sing in American accents (口音) without realizing.
Young British people use lots of language that you usually can’t find in most dictionaries. These informal words and expressions are known as ‘slang’. It is not possible ti make a complete list of modern British slang. By the time people finish the list, it would be out of date! New words come and go like fashions. However, here are a few examples:
Safe, sorted, sound, cool or wicked all mean “That’s good” or “I understand”.
People seldom use different tag question like … isn’t it?, can’t you? or don’t they?, they use innit.
No longer say very, really or completely, people use well.
Whatever means I don’t care.
’He’s fine‘ or ‘He’s fit’ both mean ‘He looks good’. Fine and fit can describe a boy or a girl.
Not everybody uses slang and not everybody likes it. A school in Sheffield, in the north of England, recently stopped its pupils using slang words such as hiya(hello), cheers and ta (both mean thank you). The head teacher says that if young people learn to speak ‘correctly’ this will help them get a place at university and a good job.
When British people use language like this, it’s no surprise that some students say they can’t understand native(本土的) speakers. But perhaps learners don’t need to worry about communicating with native speakers so much. Research shows that most of the English spoken in the world today is spoken between non-native speakers of the language. In fact, when we think about “International English”, there is no such things as a native or non-native speaker.
【1】In the UK, you can find little slang in _________.
A.young people’s language B.TV programmes
C.most dictionaries D.pop songs
【2】The writer uses the example of a school in Sheffield to say that _________.
A.slang words can be used easily B.slang is changing quickly
C.some people don’t like slang D.slang is out of date
【3】Which slang can be used in the following dialogue?
—But the teacher says we can’t leave if we don’t finish.
—_________. I’m going.
A.Sound B.Fine C.Cheers D.Whatever
【4】IF you want to learn more about the topic of this passage, you can search the Internet with the key words “_________”.
A.British people B.Language changes
C.English slang D.English cultures
【5】You may find this passage in a book of _________.
A.novel(小说) B.culture C.travel D.history
