Examiner:All right. Now, let’s move to the third part. In this part of the test I’m going to give each of you a list of three different topics. I’d like you to select one of the topics and give a short presentation for about a minute. When (say the name of Candidate A)has finished talking ,I’d like you , (say the name of Candidate B) , to ask him/her one or two questions .You may make notes while you are preparing and take notes while the other person is talking. Now you’ll have 2 minutes to prepare. All right. Now(say the name of Candidate A) , would you begin by telling us which topic you have chosen and then give your presentation , please? Key: The first thing to realize is studying the English languages that is primarily something that is spoken not written. The introduction of a system for recording thought and speech by writing (and later by printing) was a very important step forward, and without it we would be very largely ignorant of the ways of our ancestors. We would be completely shut off from the great minds of the past, and it would be quite impossible for us to study, since we would know nothing about their language, we would still less be in a position to relate that language to the tongues spoken in other countries. The only means we have of knowing about the language used by Julius Caesar or by King Alfred the Great — the words they employed and the grammar of their speech — is by studying such written documents have survived; and in the main that will be the method employed by future generations when they wish to investigate the language of our own age. Because of this necessity of relying on written documents when learning a language, and because reading and writing have come to occupy so a large place in our daily lives, there has grown a tendency to think of language in terms of the written or printed world. But printing and writing are only substitutes for speech. In its primary sense language, as its name implies, is oral. Printing and writing have certainly had an influence on the development of language — usually displaying a conservative tendency, but in the end what is written is determined by what is said. Secondly, we must realize that languages are constantly changing. If we look at a passage from Chaucer (who was writing towards the end of the fourteenth century), and compare it with the English that is spoken and written today, it is obvious that the language has altered considerably in the intervening five hundred years or more; and if we go even further back, we find an even greater difference. These facts are really too self-evident to need pointing out. But although this evolutionary factor is obvious and widely recognized, there is frequently a tendency to assume that it is a thing of the past, and that, in all "civilized coun-tries"at least, language has now become more or less fixed and set, so that the English, the French and the German of today will be the English, the French and the German of two cen-turise hence. This is far form the truth. Thirdly, it should be realized that speech or language is the distinguishing characteristic of man, and is one of the chief attributes which differenciates him from the other animal species. Why? The answer is probably to do with the development of mind. As the mind of species they develop speech.
