for2years in high school,and German for4years in college and got good marks.I studied Chinese for about4months before moving to China.For any language,if you don't use it,it will be easy to loseit.I've forgotten the French I learned except for a few phrases.I speak Chinese every day.My writing,reading and listening are quite good,but far from fluent.I think it's necessary to learn Chinese.Tony(the UK)Learning any language can be valuable,but it is not suitable for everyone.Chinese is a difficult language to learn,and teachers in the UK are not good at teaching foreign languages.However,China is a big and developing market for English business people.For them,Chinese is worth learning.Bill(the US)I don't think Chinese will replace(取代)English.Chinese is difficult to

letters“WC”in your city.They show public toilets.But doyou know the expression is far from elegant(优雅的)English?In fact,foreigners from English⁃speaking countries rarely use the letters.Workers in our city are changing“WC”signs all over the city.The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus.Many other places in China are following suit(照着做).“WC,or water closet,is old⁃fashioned English.It sounds dirty to me,”says Charlie Shifflet,a young man from the US.The old sign will become“Gents/Men”and“Ladies/Women”.“I see lots of poor English in everyday life,not only on signs,”he says.“I know what they mean.But they are Chinglish(中国式英语),not real English.For example,when someone says to me‘My hometown is Henan Province.’I know he should say,‘My hometown is in Henan Province.’‘Hometown’is a smaller place in a province.”The common mistakes he picked up include“Not Entry”,which should be“No Entry”.“Direction of Airport”should be changed into“To the Airport”.And it is“room rate”,not“room price”.And remember to “Keep off the grass”,rather than“Care of the green”.(E9301003)26.What does the writer think of the use of“WC”?A.He doesn't think it means“water closet”.B.He doesn't think it is old⁃fashioned English.C.He doesn't think it is proper for a sign.D.He thinks it is elegant English.27.The underlined
