Read the followingpassage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions

For many people the language of the internet is English. “World, Wide, Web:Three English Words” was the name of an article by Michael Specter in the New York Times a few years ago. The article went on to say:“If you want to take full advantage of the Internet, there is only one real way to do it:learn English. ”

In general, it is not difficult to learn to use Internet services. But although Internet services are rather easy to use, you will have considerable difficulties if you are not familiar with English. In fact, knowledge of English is one of the most important aspects that help you use the Internet.

Learning to use a new Internet service may take a few hours, a few days, or some weeks, but it takes years to learn a language so that you can use it fluently and confidently. Of course, when you know some English, you can learn more just by using it on the Internet. But at least your English should be good enough to understand commonly used words and to know what to do on the Internet.
