The development of the English language took a giant step in 1607. Three small British ships c1. the Atlantic Ocean. They began to call areas of their new land by words borrowed from the native people. For example, many of the great r2. in the United States are taken from American Indian words. The Mississippi, the Tennessee, the Missouri are examples. This borrowing or adding of foreign words to English was a w3.of expanding（扩大）the language. The names of three days of the week are good examples of this. The people from Northern Europe honored three gods with a special day each week. The gods were Odin, Thor and Freya. Odin’s-day became Wednesday in English, Thor’s-day became T4. and Freya’s-day became Friday.

Experts cannot explain many English words. For h5. of years, a dog was called a “hound.” The word is still u6. but not as commonly as the word “dog.” English speakers just started using it. Other words whose origins are unknown i7.“fun,” “bad,” and “big.”

English speakers also continue to invent n8. words by linking old words together. A good example is the words “motor” and “hotel.” Many years ago

s9. linked them together into the word “motel.” A motel is a small hotel near a road where people travelling in cars can stay for the night.

Other words come from the f10. letters of names of groups or devices. For example, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization is usually called NATO.

“USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?” We often hear such discussion. As China opens its door, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students. They want to learn about the world. It’s true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Language skills will improve and it may be easier to find a job.
But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture.
Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad sinking in an ocean of difficulties and giving up easily. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for the students to study well.
Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden (负担) to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?
We know that there are many famous people who succeed in great things through their hard work in China. Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at Athens Olympics. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, consider whether studying abroad is the right choice.
