The reason is that the Conquest was not a national migration, as the earlier Anglo-Saxon invasion had been. Great numbers of Normans came to England , but they came as rulers and landlords. French became the language of the court, the language of ？nobility, the language of polite society, the language of literature. But it did not replace English as the language of the people. There must always have been hundreds of towns and villages in which French was never heard except when visitors of high station passed through.Key to Task 3 (p8)Here is a short story from which some verbs have been omitted. Fill the blanks with verbs which you find appropriate in the context.The post war era witnessed the birth perhaps the most powerful medium of mass communicationin history: television. Experiments in broadcasting pictures (along with sound) over the airwaves had begun as early as the 1920s, but commercial television did not come into existence until shortly after World War II. It experienced a phenomenally rapid growth. In 1946, there were only 17000 sets in the entire country (the United States); by 1953, two thirds of all American homes had television sets; and by 1957, there were 40 million television sets in use—almost as many sets as there were families. More people had television sets, according to one report, than had refrigerators……The impact of television on American life was rapid, pervasive, and profound. Television news had by the end of the 1950s replaced newspapers, magazines and radios a s the nation’s most important vehicle of information. Television advertising exposed the entire nation to new fashions and products. Television entertainment programming, almost all of it controlled by the three national networks (the National Broadcasting Company, the Columbia Broadcasting System, and the American Broadcasting Company) created a common image of American life –an image that was predominantly white, middle-class, and suburban. Televised sports events gradually made professional sports one of the important sources of entertainment (and one of the biggest businesses) in America.Part IILearning Activity 2Key to Task 2(p11)Task 2 (4 points)The extract of The Gift of the Magi is given below.

She stood by the window and looked out dully at a grey cat walking a grey fence in a grey backyard. Tomorrow would be Christmas Day, and she had only $1.87 with which to buy Jim a present. She had been saving every penny she could for months, with this result. Twenty dollars a week doesn’t go far. Expenses had been greater than she had calculated. They always are. Only $1.87 to buy a present for Jim. Her Jim. Many a happy hour she had spent planning for something nice for him. Something fine and rare and sterling - something just a little bit near to being worthy of the honour of being owned by Jim.There was a pier-glass between the windows of the room. Perhaps you have seen a pier-glass in an $8 flat. A very thin and very agile person may, by observing his reflection in a rapid sequence of longitudinal strips, obtain a fairly accurate conception of his looks. Della, being slender, had mastered the art.Part IILearning Activity 3Key to Task 1 (p15)In the text below there are thirty words which are frequently misspelt in English.

The fifth from the left has got a big hole in it about five feet from the ground. So put the money there and drive away: I will be watching all the time.
