UNIT 5　LANGUAGES AROUND THE WORLD Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2023·广东珠海二模)Learning other languages，you discover how to say the same thing in many different ways.In English we say“good night”．In Vietnam，people say“Chúc ngǔ ngon” which means “have a delicious sleep”．When I think about the word “delicious” I think of pizza，chocolate and ice­cream.I don't think about going to sleep.So depending on the language，different phrases will improve your creativity and force you to think about how to say things in a different way.
