English has become the world’s number one language in the 20th century. In every country where English is not the native language, especially in the Third World, people must strive to learn it to the best of their abilities, if they want to participate fully in the development of their countries.【B6】______________
【B7】______________Nonetheless, a world full of different languages will disappear if the present trend in many countries to use English to replace the national or official languages in education, trade and even politics continues. 【B8】______________
The Third World countries that are now using English as a medium of instruction are depriving 75 per cent of their future leaders of a proper education. According to many studies, only around 20 to 25 per cent of students in these countries can manage to learn the language of instruction (English) as well as basic subjects at the same time. Many leaders of these Third World countries are obsessed with English and for them English is everything. They seem to believe that if the students speak English, they are already knowledgeable. 【B9】______________
All the greatest countries of the world are great because they constantly use their own languages in all national development activities, including education. From a psychological point of view, those who are taught in their own language from the start will develop better self-confidence and self-reliance. From a linguistic point of view, the best brains can only be produced if students are educated in their own language from the start.【B10】______________
There is nothing wrong, however, in learning a foreign language at advanced levels of education. But the best thing to do is to have a good education in one’s native language first, then go abroad to have a university education in a foreign language.
A ) If this situation continues, the native or official languages of these countries will certainly die within two or three generations. This phenomenon has been called linguistic genocide. A language dies if it is not fully used in most activities, particularly as a medium of instruction in schools.
B ) Those who are taught in a foreign language from the start will tend to be imitators and lack self-confidence. They will tend to rely on foreign consultants.
C ) Suppose you work in a big firm and find English very important for your job because you often deal with foreign businessmen. Now you are looking for a place where you can improve your English, especially your spoken English.
D ) But many people are concerned that English’s dominance will destroy native languages.
E ) These leaders speak and write English much better than their national languages. If these leaders deliver speeches anywhere in the world, they use English and they feel more at home with it and proud of their ability as well. The citizens of their countries do not understand their leaders’ speeches because they are made in a foreign language.
F ) Here are some advertisements about English language training from newspapers. You may find the information you need.
G ) A close examination reveals a great number of languages have fallen casualty to English. For example, it has wiped out Hawaiian, Welsh, Scotch, Gaelic, Irish, native American languages, and many others. Luckily, some of these languages are now being revived, such as Hawaiian and Welsh, and these languages will live again, hopefully, if dedicated people continue their work of reviving them.

选项
答案
A
解析
本题可以运用排比结构衔接法。第3题处于第二段段尾的位置,即第3题必须填入与其前面的本段已知信息具有极大相近性的信息。首先分析一下第3题之前的本段已知信息,发现这些信息使用了一个带有明显特点的句型:if the…trend…continues…will disappear;选项A)中也出现了几乎是相同结构的句型:If this situation continues,…will die。因此,可以判定文章此处存在着一个排比结构,选项A)一定可以填入第3题,与上文构成排比,而且选项A)中的信息与第3题之前的原文已知信息都在谈论同一件事,即“英语的垄断如何使得其他语言消亡”,所以两者具有极大相近性,A)项是唯一的正确答案。
