II.Read the following passage and answer the questions.
Today English is considered a global language or lingua franca. It is said that if you do not know English and cannot use it well, you may meet lots of difficulties in the modern world. More and more people are learning English for several reasons.
Firstly, they want to improve their knowledge. It Is obvious that most of the important sources of information are now in English. We can easily find websites, journals, newspapers, and encyclopedias in English everywhere. If we know English well, we can attend quite a lot of online courses or go abroad to study. Many universities in different countries offer courses in English even though it is not their native language.
Secondly, it is easier to get a well-paid job if you can use English. Most multinational companies require a certain degree of English proficiency from potential employees. Therefore, in order to get a position with a top company, more and more people are learning English. Even local companies now require their staff to know English. The reason for that is they may have business relationships with companies in other countries which use English as their working language.
These two reasons are the most common ones explaining why people like to,and need to, study English.

 ...........................................................................................................

They also have their own (3).........................- a ‘pavement’ in Britain is a ‘sidewalk’ in North America and a ‘footpath’ in Australia. In fact, one reason (4)......................the richness of English is its ability to borrow (5)........................words from other languages and cultures that it has come into contact with. Have you ever wondered (6)........................English often has more than one word to refer to the same thing? Well, it's because new words were (7)........................to English as a result of this contact with other cultures and languages. Many words (8)......................we consider to be wholly English originally came from other languages, for example, ‘passport’ from French, ‘mosquito’ From Spanish, and ‘sauna’ from Finnish. You (9) .......................think ‘hamburger’, ‘ketchup’, and ‘coffee” would come from American English, right? No, ‘hamburger’ is from German, ‘ketchup “ is Malay, and ‘coffee’ is Turkish, believe it or not Some words you (10)....................... knew the origin of - ‘karate is a Japanese word, for example, ‘violin’ comes from Italian, and ‘tea’ originally comes from Chinese but what about the word ‘cruise’? That actually comes from Dutch
