American English and British English

Many students want to know about the differences between American English and British English. How did these differences come about? There is no quick answer to this question.

At first the language in Britain and America was the same. In 1776 America became an independent(独立的)country. After that, the language slowly began to change. For
a long time the language in America stayed the same,while the language in England changed. For example,300years ago the English talked about“fall" Today,most British People talk about“autumn ",but Americans still talk about“fall" the same way Americans still use the expression“I guess"(meaning“I think"),just as the British did 300 years ago. At the same time,British English and

American English started borrowing words from other languages,ending up with different example,the British took“typhoon" from Chinese,while the Americans took“tornado" from Spanish.

In 1828 Noah Webster published the first American dictionary. He wanted to make American English different from British English,so he changed the spelling of many words. That’s why the words colour, centre and traveller are spelt color,center, and traveler in American English. Except for these differences in spelling,written English is more or less the same in both British and American English.

The differences are greater in the spoken language. For example,Americans say dance[dins ],and in southern England they say[da:ns〕 America they pronounce not[nat ];in southern England they say[nit ]ver,most of the time people from the two countries do not have any difficulty in understanding each other.

26. From the second paragraph we know that .

A. British people and Americans often say“fall" now

B. British English is borrowing words from Spanish

C. British English changed but American English stayed the same

D. American English started to change after the independence

27. What does paragraph 3 mainly talked about

A. Noah Webster made American English spelling different.

B. Noah Webster published the first American dictionary.

C. American and British English have the same spellings.

D. How Noah Webster changed the written English.

28. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. British decided to change the spelling of many American words.

B. Britain and America published different dictionaries.

C. The oral differences between the two languages are very big.

D. British people say not[nat ] while Americans say[nit ].

29. What does the writer want to tell us in paragraph 4?

A. Though spoken English differs greatly,people can communicate with each other.

B. The differences in spoken English are too big.

C. Americans say dance[dins ],which is old Britain English.

D. People from the two countries have trouble understanding each other.

30. What is the passage mainly about

A. Why English has become a popular language.

B. How American and British English have changed.

C. How people in two countries understand each other.

D. Why Britain and America are two similar countries.

I once lived in a small village in China. Later when my family moved to America,we brought not only our luggage,but also our village rules,customs and culture. One of the rules brought is that young people should always respect elders. Unluckily,this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.

One day an old couple come to the restaurant where I worked. The wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that,her face showed a bit anger. My manager, who happened to hear what I said,took me aside and told me
a lot about how Americans dis-like the word“elder".I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife.

People are always proud of being old in my village so many people live to be seventy or eighty,and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.

In the United States many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging,and women put on makeup,hoping to look young,because they think“growing old" is a problem since“old" shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well.

After that,I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more;I still respect them,but now I don’t show my feelings through words.

31 h of the following is Not what the writer brought to America

A. Big luggage. B. Village rules. C. Customs and culture. D. Elder person.

32. The writer apologize to the wife because .

A. the manager asked him to do so

33 the writer' s hometown,

A. people dislike being called“old"

B. people are proud of being old

C. many people reach the age of seventy or eighty

D. the elderly are the first to get food in restaurants

34. According to paragraph 4,people

A. dislike being growing old

B. like doing exercise

C. have to retire at an early age

D. are always put on makeup

35. After this experience,the writer---一一

A. lost his job in the restaurant

B. made friends with the couple

C. no longer respected the elderly

D. changed his way with older people

I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.

I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.

I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.

The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.

Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well.

Some of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.

Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.

It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture.

“Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. “What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore. It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital.”

Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.

Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran. “For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.”

did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?

remember the birth of jazz.

protect cultural diversity.

encourage people to study music.

recognize the value of jazz.

does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?

becoming more accessible.

production of jazz growing faster.

being less popular with the young.

jazz audience becoming larger.

can we infer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?

will disappear gradually.

remains black and white.

h of the following can be the best title for the text?

oring the Future of Jazz.

A buld-it-yourself solar still(蒸馏器) is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only components required, though, are a 5' 5' sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container— perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.

To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole.

Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with 45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no more than three inches above, the cup.

The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment zxxk out through the tube, and won’t have to break down the still every time you need a drink.

32. What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?

A. It’s delicate. B. It’s expensive.

C. It’s complex. D. It’s portable.

33. What does the underlined phrase “the water catcher” in paragraph 2 refer to?

A. The tube. B. The still.

C. The hole. D. The cup.

34. What’s the last step of constructing a working solar still?

A. Dig a hole of a certain size. B. Put the cup in place.

C. Weight the sheet’s center down. D. Cover the hole with the plastic sheet.

35. When a solar still works, drops of water come into the cup form .

A. the plastic tube B. outside the hole

C. the open air D. beneath the sheet

If anyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping. I would have laughed heartily. Campers, in my eyes, were people who enjoyed insect bites, ill-cooked meals, and uncomfortable sleeping bags. They had nothing in common with me. 36 .

The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer. 37 We sleep in a tent, cooked over an open fire, and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom. This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work, recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctor’s bill for my son’s food poisoning.

I was, nevertheless, talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness. 38 Instead, we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner. My nature-loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life.

39 We have done a lot of it since. Recently, we bought a twenty-eight-foot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and a built-in TV set. There is a separate bedroom, a modern kitchen with a refrigerator. The trailer even has matching carpet and curtains.

40 It must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way back to nature. I recommend that you find your way in style.

There has been a recent trend in the food service industry toward lower fat content and less salt. This trend, which was started by the medical community(医学界) 61 a method of fighting heart disease, has had some unintended side 62 (effect) such as overweight and heart disease-the very thing the medical community was trying to fight.

Fat and salt are very important parts of a diet. They are required 63 (process) the food that we eat, to recover from injury and for several other bodily functions. When fat and salt 64 (remove) from food, the food tastes as if is missing something. As 65 result, people will eat more food to try to make up for that something missing. Even 66 (bad), the amount of fast food that people eat goes up. Fast food

67 (be) full of fat and salt; by 68 (eat) more fast food people will get more salt and fat than they need in their diet.

Having enough fat and salt in your meals will reduce the urge to snack(吃点心) between meals and will improve the taste of your food. However, be 69 (care) not to go to extremes. Like anything, it is possible to have too much of both, 70 is not good for the health.

In the summer holiday following my eighteen birthday, I took driving lessons. I still remember how hard first day was. Before getting into the car, I thought I had learned the instructor’s orders, so once I started the car, my mind goes blank. I forgot what he had said to me altogether. The instructor kept repeating the word, “Speed up!” “Slow down!” “Turning left!” I was so much nervous that I could hardly tell which direction was left. A few minutes late, the instructor asked me to stop the car. It was a relief and I came to a suddenly stop just in the middle on the road.
