5.Nowadays,the Internet,with its ability to connect people throughout the world,is changing  the way people learn languages.There is still no way to avoid the hard work through vocabulary lists and grammar rules,but the books,tapes and even CDs are being replaced by email,video chat and social networks.
     Livemocha,a Seattle company,has created a website devoted to helping people learn more than 38 languages by exchanging messages over the Internet and then correcting each other's messages.The lessons,whether they are flashcards,quizzes,audio recordings or written and spoken essays,are delivered through the Intemet.
    Michael Schutzler,Livemocha's chief executive(主管),says the website's advantage is the ability to practicel with a real person."The great irony(讽刺)is that even if you have learned a foreign language in the classroom for years,you don't have confidefice to go into a restaurant and have a conversation with a foreigner,"he said.The casual connection with real people throughout the world,however brief,are not just fun and surprising but show more about how the language is really used.
    Livemocha is now experimenting with a variety of ways that resemble the games on other social websites to motivate people.The flashcard exercises,for instance,are scored,and the totals earned by studying and teaching appear on the users'front page.
    Besides,each person can set up a profile(简历)which includes a short description of his age,location and what language he would like to learn.Therefore,if you want to study one language,you will easily find many people who are fluent in it.Andl an email or two is all it takes to find a study partner.

3.Many people take it for granted that black is a color of bad things while white should always mean something good.This may be because,in their opinion,black is related to darkness and white to purity.However,that is not always the case.Did you know that the same one color may mean something differently in different places of the world?
In the English-speak ing world,black is the color of mourning-people wear black at the funeral.Red is concerned with danger or bloodshed(伤亡).Yellow is the word for fear.If you are afraid,you are yellow.Yet none of these sayings is true outside the English-speaking world.In China and Korea white is the color of mourning.In Russia,China and some other countries,red stands for beauty,life and excellence.In Italy and Germany,you are yellow with anger,not with fear.
Even within the English-speaking area,it is not difficult to find color contradictions(矛盾).A redcap in the United States is a porter in a railway station.In Britain,however,a redcap is a military policeman.Both names are logical,because both men wear red caps.Similarly,the British term for an American white-collar worker is sometimes called a black-coated worker.
One does not have to cross an area to find color differences.Would you rather be red-blooded or a blue-blooded?If we go back to the origin,we find that both terms are logical as both names suggest.The expression"blueblood"comes from Spain,where some noble families proudly told the world that they had"blue blood".Actually they meant that they had no Moorish or Jewish blood.But then why"blue"blood?Because they were fair-skinned,and it is only natural that their blood vessels (血管)stood out appearing blue.
