Perhaps you’ve seen the English letters “WC” in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it 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 our steps. “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， and not only on signs，” he says. “I know what they mean. But they are Chinglish， 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 to “To the Airport”. And it is “room rate”， not “room price”. And remember to “Keep off the grass”， rather than “Care of the green”. 1. 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 old-fashioned English. C. He doesn’t think it proper for a sign. D. He thinks it elegant English. 2. The underlined word “rarely” means _________. A. sometimes B. seldom C. often D. always 3. Charlie Shifflet . A. is a Chinese living in America B. thinks Chinese people are sometimes using incorrect English C. likes to hear or see Chinglish D. sometimes uses Chinglish 4. Which of the following signs does NOT use Chinglish? A. C.
5. The last paragraph is about . A. why there are so many Chinglish signs B. examples of Chinglish C. where Chinglish signs are D. who uses Chinglish signs

People use their mouths for many things. In the English language， there are many expressions using the word “mouth”. But some of them are not so nice. Sometimes， people say something to a friend or a family member. Later they regret because it hurts that person’s feelings. Or they tell the person something they didn’t mean to tell. The speaker might say: “I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” Sometimes when one person is speaking， he says the same thing that his friend is going to say. When this happens， the friend might say: “You took the words right out of my mouth!” Sometimes a person has a bad or sad experience with another person.
