Every one can try his best to achieve.We don't need to be the best,but to tough out the limits of what we are capable of.I gained this belief from my third grade teacher,the mast special honored,trustworthy,and loved person in my life.

Mr.Myrus was always perfectly dressed and spoke with the belief that talking to eight-year-olds didn’t mean he had to sacrifice proper statements or grammars.And he was demanding but he wasn't unreasonable or cruel.He simply felt that no matter what your best was,you should achieve it.

As luck would have it,I met him again as my eighth grade math teacher.I was not,nor ever will be,gifted in math. I remember my struggles in class."I don't know the answer,"I would say,"I can’t do it!"“Perhaps you don't know the answer,”he would say quietly."Do you think we might figure it out together?How do you know what you can do until you try?"

Mr.Myrus lived around the comer,and I would often stop by to talk while he worked in his garden.I knew there was someone who let me know that if I had really tried,that was enough.

"Don't be so hard on yourself,"he'd say."Stop blaming yourself.Did you try your best?Well,then you're not a failure,"he often told me these words.

Mr.Myrus died in 1978.I had never thought about his death.He was too young.I felt sorry.But when I think about him now,I don't feel so sorry.He taught me to be kind,not only to others,but to myself.He taught me my own value.He taught me about honor,about truth,and about doing my best—and that all feelings and beliefs have dignity and deserve respect.And of all the things I know,this I believe: We can't all be “the best”,but we can,each of us,be our best,and I know that's true because Mr.Myrus told me that.

The English language is changing fast, thanks to the rapid progress of technology. We all have a choice: we can either bury our heads in the sand and spend the rest of our lives wishing Shakespeare were alive and well, or we can embrace(拥抱) the new English, enter into the spirit of the Internet age and call it Weblish.

“You can’t avoid it, for the simple reason that whenever a new variety of language comes along, it is certain to impacts(冲击) on the language as a whole,” says Dr David Crystal, honorary professor of linguistics at the University of Wales in Bangor, whose book “Language and the Internet” has just been published.

The trouble with keeping up with the new English is not so much that there are so many new words but that the old words no longer mean what we thought they did. In the past, if someone said they did not have Windows, you would have to suppose they lived in a cave. These days, it is probably because they use a Mac(which is a computer, not a raincoat.) Spam is as disliked as it ever was, but whereas it once meant an unappetizing(引不起食欲的) canned meat, it now stands for unwanted “junk” e-mail. Spellings are changing, too. Not only is textmessaging playing “hvc wth vrbs” {havoc(混乱) with verbs} , but the conventions of e-mail communication place little emphasis on “Perfect spelling.”

Weblish loves to see nouns happily become verbs (“Please bookmark this site”), and verbs become nouns (“Send me the download”). Verbs and prepositions are regularly thrown together to become new nouns or adjectives(dialup, logon, print-out, pull-down, upload), while others are created from simply pairing nouns: cyber-space, Internet, hyperlink, netspeak.

1.We can infer from the first paragraph that__________.

A. some people wish Shakespeare were still alive

B. people may have different attitudes towards weblish

C. all people welcome weblish

D. weblish causes fear among people

2.The third paragraph is mainly about ____________.

A. different meanings of English words          B. the rapid changes of English words

C. the difficulty in understanding words related to computer and the Internet

D. common words used on the Internet

3.The author thinks the main difficulty for people in keeping up with weblish is that _______.

A. old words take on new meanings   B. there are so many new words

C. the technology is changing too fast  D. weblish words are full of spelling mistakes

4.Dr David Crystal would probably agree that __________.

A. people should not accept weblish

B. weblish can cause misunderstanding among  people

C. weblish will destroy the English language

D. people should know something about weblish
