It has evolved from a variety of sources, including Latin, Greek, French, and German. One of the most significant influences on English was the Norman Conquest in 1066, when the Normans, who spoke French, conquered England. This event led to a mingling of languages and cultures, which greatly enriched the English language.The Norman Conquest also brought about the introduction of many new words into the English vocabulary. For instance, the term “justice” comes from the French word “justice,” which means “fairness.” Similarly, the word “chancellor” has its roots in the French “chancelier,” which means “principal counselor.” Many other words, such as “liberty,” “parliament,” and “mayor,” were also borrowed from French during this period.English also borrowed many words from Latin and Greek. For example, the word “geometry” comes from the Greek “geometria,” which means “earthme asurement.” The word “astronomy” has its roots in the Greek “astron,” meaning “star,” and “nomos,” meaning “law.”The influence of the Norman Conquest and the borrowing of words from other languages have made the English language diverse and rich. It is no wonder that English is spoken by millions of people worldwide and has become the dominant language in international communication.Questions:1.What was one of the most significant influences on the English language?a) The Norman Conquestb) Latinc) Greekd) German2.Which of the following words was borrowed from French during the Norman Conquest?a) Geometryb) Chancellorc) Astronomyd) Mayor3.Why is the English language considered diverse and rich?a) It has evolved from a single language.b) It has borrowed words from various languages, including French, Latin, and Greek.c) It has a short history.d) It has been spoken by millions of people worldwide.Answers:1.a) The Norman Conquest2.b) Chancellor3.b) It has borrowed words from various languages, including French, Latin, and Greek.五、写作题（16分）题目要求：请以“我的梦想”为题，写一篇短文。
