题文
British English and American English A student is studying British English. He wonders: Can I have a talk with Americans? Can they catch me? Learners of English often ask--what are the differences between British English and American English? How important are these differences? Certainly, there are some differences between British English and American English. There are a few differences in grammar(语法). For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?” Pronunciation (发音) is sometimes different. Americans usually sound the “r” in words like “car”and “farm”. Some speakers of British English do not sound the “r” in these words. There are differences between British English and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, “colour”and “honour” are British English spellings. “Color” and “honor” are American English spellings. These differences are in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary. However, they are not important. For the most part, British English and American English are the same language. 小题1:In American English, we can say, “ ? ”A.Have you a new book | B.Do you have a new book | C.Are you have a new book | D.Can you to have a new book | 小题2:Between British English and American English, sometimes pronunciation is .A.poor | B.different | C.high | D.short | 小题3:In American English, the word “favourite”can be spelt .A.favoruite | B.favurite | C.favorite | D.favrite | 小题4:Englishmen say “in hospital”, while Americans say .A.at the hospital | B.in the hospital | C.by hospital | D.to hospital | 小题5:The main idea of the passage is that .A.there are no differences between British English and American English | B.British English and American English are two different languages | C.speakers of British English and American English speak the same language | D.we shouldn't speak English |
