Rick told him that his flat was on the first floor. When he arrived, Simon went straight to the first floor of the building. But he was told that there was no Rick on that floor. Do you know why? In fact, the British call the first floor of a building the ground floor. The floor above the ground floor is the first floor, which Americans would call the second floor. The story shows that there are a few culture differences between Britain and America, though the British and Americans both speak English. The British usually hide their feelings. They seldom start a conversation with strangers. For example, on the train the British often spend their time reading newspapers or books. But Americans are quite different. They're more active and easier to talk with. The British and Americans may use different terms for many things. The British usually use football, rubber and post while Americans prefer to use soccer, eraser and mail. 文章大意：主要是講了英國人和美國人在說英語方面的一些不同，比如英國人所說的第一層就是美國人所說的第二層。這個故事說明了英國和美國雖然都講英語，但是還是有一些文化上的差異。英國人經常隱藏他們的感情，很少和陌生人講話，而美國人卻不同，他們更積極和容易與人交談。而且他們在一些用語上也是有差別的。 1．Simon went to London to________.

A．playing cards B．talking loudly C．doing some reading D．singing and dancing 答案：C　根據(jù)第四段可知英國人在火車上幾乎不和陌生人講話，而是看報紙或看書。 4．What does the underlined word“terms”mean in Chinese in the passage？________ A．成果 B．學期 C．會議 D．用語 答案：D　考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一句話的內容可以判斷出英國和美國在一些“用語”上是有些不同的。 5．What's the best title for the passage？________ A．Differences in culture B．Simon's funny story C．Information abroad D．Hiding the feelings 答案：A　考查文章的主旨大意。整篇文章都是通過講英國和美國在英語使用上的不同，從而體現(xiàn)了這兩個國家的文化差異。 111
