　　24 Paragraph2

　　2  A speech community is similar to other kinds of communities．The people who make up the community share a common language．Often they live side by side, as they do in a neighborhood (街坊)，a village，or a city．More often they form a whole country．National boundaries，however，are not always the same as the boundaries of a speech community．A speech community is any group of people who speak the same language no matter where they happen to live．
　　B． 分析：speech community是该段落中的中心词—反复出现，尤其出现在段首句和段末句中，而且段末句的句势：A speech community is any group of people..这样的结构是典型的定义式结构，因此判断Ｂ是答案。

　　D  Advantages of Learning Chinese
　　E Two Groups of the English Speech Community

　　25 Paragraph 3

　　3  We may say that anyone who speaks English belongs to the English speech community.
