Which place has the most fluent non-native English speakers?
If you're reading this story, the chances are that you've got a pretty good command of English. You*re not alone-an estimated 1.5 billion people speak English today, making it the most commonly used language in the world. The majority are non-native speakers with English as their second language, while it serves as a third or fourth language for hundreds of millions more. So which place has the most fluent non-native English speakers?
According to a new report by international education company EF Education First, the Netherlands has the best non-native English speakers across the globe. The results of its English Proficiency Index （英语熟练度指标）， based on a free online test taken by 2.3 million volunteers, show that the Dutch are the most fluent. Sweden is positioned just below, with a score of 68.74 out of 100, while Norway comes in third with 67.93 points.
Although the areas with “very high proficiency^^ were largely made up of European countries, Singapore and South Africa also scored highly, coming in fifth and sixth place respectively.
The report also found that English has been the most widely studied second language in the world by far. This may be the reason why just 20% of school students in the United States were studying a foreign language.
EF Education Firsfs poll was measured by testing non-native English speakers in 100 countries and over 400 cities and regions who voluntarily agreed to take the test. But there's one thing that should be noticed. People are more likely to participate in the survey if they can surf the Internet more easily. And this may greatly influence the accuracy （准确T生） of the results.

One of the speaking rules you need to know might sound strange 1. most ESL (English as a second language) students, but it is one of the most important rules. If you want to pass examinations, study grammar. However, if you want to become fluent in English, you should try

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
The idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my childhood in Belleville, but it wasn't until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold. Until then I'd been bored with everything associated with English courses. I hated it when the assignments turned out long, lifeless paragraphs that were agony （痛苦）for teachers to read and for me to write.
When our class was assigned to Mr. Leangle for third-year English, I saw another cheerless year when I was buried in some boring subjects. Mr. Leangle had a reputation among students for dullness and inability to inspire the student. He was said to be very formal, strict and excessively prim （古板的）.
I prepared for a fruitless year with Mr. Leangle and for a long time was not disappointed. Late in the year we dealt with the informal essay. Mr. Leangle distributed a homework sheet offering us a choice of topics. I took the list home and did nothing until the night before the essay was due. Lying on the sofa, I finally faced up to the unwelcome task, took the list out of my notebook, and scanned it. The topic on which my eye stopped was “The Art of Eating Spaghetti”.
This title produced an extraordinary series of mental images. Vivid memories came flooding back to a night in Belleville when all of us were seated around the supper table-Uncle Allen, my mother, Uncle Charlie, Doris, Uncle Hal-and Aunt Pat served spaghetti for supper. Spaghetti was still a little known foreign dish in those days. Neither Doris nor I had ever eaten spaghetti, and none of the adults had enough experience to be good at it. All the good humor of Uncle Allen's house reawake in my mind as I recalled the laughing arguments we had that night about the socially respectable method for moving spaghetti from the plate to our mouth.
Suddenly I wanted to write about that, about the warmth and good feeling of it, but I wanted to put it down simply for my own joy, not for Mr. Leangle. The next morning I turned in my tale of the Belleville supper.
注意:
1 .续写词数应为150左右；
2 .请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1 ：
Two days passed before Mr. Leangle returned the graded papers, and he returned everyone's but mine.
Paragraph 2：
I did my best to avoid showing pleasure, but what I was feeling was pure delight at this demonstration.

Dear Henry,
Pleased to know your passion for learning Chinese, I'm writing to recommend Xinhua Dictionary to you. As a native speaker, I believe it is a helpful tool, especially for the beginners.
Firstly, it's one of the most widely used dictionaries in China, not only for its wide range of vocabulary but also for its precise explanation of each word. Besides, its reasonable price is undoubtedly an appealing factor.
I hope my suggestion will be helpful and wish you great progress in learning Chinese.
Yours,Li Hua
Task 5
Paragraph 1 ：
Two days passed before Mr. Leangle returned the graded papers, and he returned everyone*s but mine. Mr. Leangle would surely give it a failing grade. I was preparing myself for an order from Mr. Leangle to stay after school for punishment when I saw him lift my essay and knock for the class's attention. To my astonishment, he started to read my words! He read in high spirits, and it seemed that all my classmates were very interested in my article. The entire class laughed with open-hearted enjoyment.
Paragraph 2：
I did my best to avoid showing pleasure, but what I was feeling was pure delight at this demon-station. My words had the power to make people laugh. When Mr. Leangle finished, he made my happiness suitable by saying, “Congratulations, Mrs. Baker, you are a good writer." I was moved by him. This experience will be the most meaningful one in my life and I will keep it in my mind forever.
