Recently he wrote a book 7he Lexicographer 's Di'lemma, explaining some of the common questions.The rules of the language aren't some official set of instructions that are decided by a group of people. They are more a developing set of habits that all come together into the common practices of the speakers.When people talk about proper English, they're really talking about a variety of English. It r s wrong to think there is only one kind of correct English and any difference from it is wrong. Actually there are many kinds of English, and the rules that we use to tell different kinds of English apart are more like table manners or fashion. They are just sets of behaviors that are shared by a group of people.People have been speaking something we can call English for about fifteen hundred years. At first,A. UnfriendlyB. UntidyC. GentleD. KindB. Pitiful D. Regretfulit would sound a lot more like German to a modern speaker. For the first twelve hundred ye ars of the languager ‘ s history, no one was particularly upset about how most people spoke.Now, everyone recognizes some people who speak better than others, just as some people dress better than others and dance and sing better than others. It was only around the year seventeen hundred that people began getting concerned and began making rules for the way everyone must speak.Some languages have never been bothered with this sort of thing at all. But for many of the major European languages,there are offcial, govemme nt-sp on sored（政府资助的[academies that determ ine what theproper form of the language is. Tiere's nothing like that in any English-speaking country.Every language changes all the time and English is no exception. That ‘s simply a fact of life and you can like that or you can be upset about it, but you have to accept it.28. Why did Jack Lynch write the book The Lexi-cographer's Dilemma?A.

Brian Lightman, from an organisation called the Association of School and College Leaders, thinks the training offered to the former soldiers who wa nt to be teachers is not enough.Christine Blower, of the National Union of Teachers, believes that teachers need to understand how children develop. According to her, teachers need a high level of education themselves and thorough teacher training before they can educate the young.l'm not sure how much 'Mr. Strict' knew about child development.
