My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr 3 :-@ kids FTF ILNY, its gr8.
Can you understand this sentence? If you can’t, don’t feel too bad; neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: the language of computerized communication found on Internet or cellphone. To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language. So, what is the "translation" of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York; it’s great.
Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes can be seen in students’ writing. They fear the language could become corrupted.
Everyone should just relax, say linguists. They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal , from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nunberg, from Stanford University, agrees. "People get better at writing by writing," he says, " Kids who are now doing text messaging, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents. "
Linguist James Millroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And you can
bet your bottom dollar
that when today’s teenagers become tomorrow’s parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become "corrupted" ; they simply change to meet the new needs.
However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says,"I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it’s important that they get across to their pupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future. "
Perhaps we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway. Erin, age 12, says, "I wouldn’t use text language in my homework. Texting is just for fun. "
What can be the best title for the passage?
选项
A、Netspeak: A Widely-Used Language on Internet
B、Is Netspeak Harming the English Language
C、Is Netspeak Helpful in Language Learning
D、Netspeak: Advantages and Disadvantages
答案
B
解析
本题为主旨大意题,结合专家的观点,即引号中的句子我们可以断定,全文的中心思想是为了凸显出Netspeak的好,A选项文章没有凸显出widely—used;C选项没有重点提及到language learning;D文章观点很鲜明,并不是正反观点的论证,故选B。
