The English language is different from any  36  language. Yet English words do not  37  the same. It is always  38 . People need new words  39  new inventions and new ideas. Different words come into use or older words are used  40 a new way.
English can 41 by borrowing words from other languages. The word “tomato” was borrowed from Mexico, the word “coffee” came from Turkey, and “tea” from  42  and so on. Now new space and science words  43  from other countries, too. New words are also made by adding two words  44 . The words “strawberry”, “postman” and “blackboard” are made up of two parts.
Sometimes, new words are  45  forms of old words. The word “photo” was made from “photograph” by cutting off the  46  of the long word. The word “plane” was made by cutting off the  47  part of “airplane”. 48 “smog” was made by using only the first two letters of “smoke” and cutting off the front part of “fog”. And products can become new words. Our “sandwich” was named after  49  named Sandwich, and “jelly(果凍)” was a name made up by the company that  50 made this product.

People like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind for them. It is a very good habit.
You should say “Thank you” when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is beautiful. We can use “Thank you” not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters.
“Excuse me” is another short sentence we often use. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know that somebody wants to walk pass you without touching you.  When others are talking, if you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you begin to cough or make any noise before others.
