The number of speakers of English in Shakespeare's time is estimated to have been about five million. Today it is estimated that some 260 million people speak it as a native language, mainly in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to the standard varieties of English found in these areas, there are a great many regional and social varieties of the language, as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in its spoken and written forms.
It is virtually impossible to estimate the number of people in the world who have acquired adequate working knowledge of English in addition to their own languages. The purposes for which English is learned and the situations in which such learning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to define and still more difficult to assess (评估,估价); what constitutes an adequate working knowledge for each situation.
The main reason for the widespread demand for English lies in its importance as a world language. Besides serving the infinite needs of its native speakers, English is a language in which some of the most important works in science, technology, and other fields are being produced, and not always by native speakers. It is widely used for such purposes as meteorological (气象的), and airport communications, international conferences, and the dissemination (传播), of information over the radio and television networks of many nations. It is a language of wider communication for a number of developing countries, especially former British colonies. Many of these countries have multi-lingual (懂多种语言的) populations and need a language for internal communication in such matters as government, commerce, industry, law and education as well as for international communication and for access to the scientific and technological developments in the West.
What would be an appropriate title for this selection?
A. The Difficulties of Learning English.
B. Internal Communications.
C. The Standard Varieties of English.
D. English as a World Language.

听力原文:W: James, what's your opinion about nuclear energy?
M: Nuclear energy? That's quite an issue! I actually have some pretty strong viewpoints regarding nuclear energy. Are you interested in hearing them?
W: Yes.
M: Well, in my opinion, nuclear energy is our best hope for the future.
W: But don't you think it poses a threat to the safety of the population?
M: Not really. As I see it, nuclear reactors are a clean and safe source of electricity.
W: Well, if you ask me, people don't realize how dangerous radiation can be.
M: The thing to keep in mind is that our oil and gas resources are limited.
W: Let me say one more thing.
M: Okay.
W: I'd just like to point out that I think too many accidents are happening at nuclear power plants all over the country.
M: You know honey, we could probably go on talking about this forever and never come to an agreement.
W: You are probably right dear. I guess we just don't see eye to eye when it comes to nuclear energy.
M: I guess not.
