Can they understand me? Learners of English often ask: What are the differences between British and American English? How important are these differences?
Certainly! there are some differences between British and American English. "There are a few differences
in grammar. For example, speakers of British English say "in hospital" and "Have you a pen?" Americans say
"in the hospital!" and "Do you have a pen?". Pronunciation is sometimes different. Americans usually sound
theirs in words like "bird" and "hurt". Speakers of British English do not sound theirs in these words. There are
differences between British and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, "colour" and "honour"
are British, "color" and honor" are American.

warm, give light and cook food. But fire can burn (燃烧) things, too. It can make trees, houses, animals and
other things catch fire (起火). If some people can"t run away from fire, it can kill them. This happens in every
country every year.
Sometimes big fire can burn forests. A month ago, a large forest fire broke out in Yunnan Province. It
lasted nearly half a month. The forest in Heilongjiang Province and the grassland in Inner Mongolia caught fire
in May, 2006. After more than ten days" fight, over 30,000 people and soldiers put out (扑灭) the fire at last.
Nobody knows clearly when people began to make fire, but there are many interesting stories about the
first time a man or a woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a man who went to the sun
and brought fire down a long time ago. Today people know how to make a fire with matches (火柴). Children
sometimes like to play with them. But matches can be very dangerous. The match can burn a piece of paper
and then it can burn a house. A small fire can become a big fire, and destroy many things. Fire kills many
people every year. So you must be careful with fire.

plants for another reason: We need them because they are beautiful.
Imagine a world with no plants. Imagine no flowers with their sweet smells, their beautiful colors and
their lovely shapes. Imagine, when the wind blows, we are not able to hear the leaves in the trees or watch
the branches swing from side to side. Everywhere people need beautiful plants. That is why we have parks
full of trees and flowers. That is why people always like houses with room for some grass and a garden.
Do you talk to your plants? Do you give them love and take good care of them? Peter Tompkins and
Christopher Bird, writers of a book called THE SECRET LIFE OF PLANTS, tell of an experiment in which
two seeds were planted in different places. While the plants were growing, one plant was given love and
hopeful ideas. After six months, the beloved plant was bigger. Under the earth it had more and longer roots;
above the earth, it had a thicker stem and more leaves.

with him, though you"re not tired.
This phenomenon confused scientists for years until a recent study found that people tend to sympathize
with fellow humans. Supporting this claim was the discovery that those children who were unable to form
normal emotional ties with others did not experience contagions (有感染力的) yawning, which showed that
humans communicate regularly without words.
Hogo Critchley, a neuroscientist, has conducted an experiment recently, which will prove that happiness
and sadness can spread like the common cold. According to Critchley, our mind and body are in constant
exchange about how we"re feeling. "Emotions are closely linked with states of internal (内部的) responses,"
he explained. "There are also more visible changes in our gesture and facial expressions. When we"re in a
group, these signals can spread to another person. For example, there"re the obvious tendency to smile when
smiled at and there are less obvious changes that reflect emotions of surprise, anger or sadness such as a
change in our heart rate and blood pressure."
Hugo Critchley further explained, "Our bodies synchronise and when we like the other Person, we even
copy his behaviour. Next time you chat with a friend, take note of how you"re sitting-it"s pretty likely that
you will be the same. Scientists believe it"s our way of telling each other that you"re parents. Through body
language, humans give each other very subtle (微妙的) but clear signals that show emotions."
So, what lessons can we learn from this? "spend time with happy people-otherwise your health could
suffer," said Critchley. "When we"re sad, our body goes into fight or flight mode. But when we"re happy, our
body works normally and we feel relaxed and positive. So we look bright, our skin glows, we feel healthy and
it affects everyone around us."
B. we yawn more frequently when we have a cold
C. emotions are connected with states of internal responses
D. the change of blood pressure is not linked with the change of emotions
B. change rapidly
C. relax temporarily
D. respond accordingly
B. anger is less contagious than friendliness
C. surprise is more contagious than smile
D. surprise is the most contagious among emotions
B. Children like copying the actions of the fellow humans.
C. Scientists are still confused about contagious yawning.
D. People tend to communicate more with body language.
(探险者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed
their surprise to the "moon people" they met. In turn, the "moon people" expressed their surprise. "Why," they
asked, "are you traveling to outer space when you don"t even use your inner space?"
H.G.Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon.
People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon.However, the question that the "moon
people" asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.
Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such
as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The "Chunnel", a tunnel (隧道)
connecting England and France, is now completed.
But what about underground cities? Japan"s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground
systems, called "Alice Cities". The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using
underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome (太阳能穹顶) would cover the
whole city.
Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to
use the earth"s space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness.
H.G. Wells" "moon people" would agree. Would you?
B. understood their language
C. lived in so many underground cities
D. were ahead of them in space technology
B. Using the earth"s inner space.
C. Meeting the "moon people" again.
D. Traveling to outer space.
B. Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.
C. Gardens, car parks, power stations.
D. Tunnels, gardens, offices.
B. Space travel with H.G. Wells
C. Enjoy living underground
D. Building down, not up
