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：主要是讲了英国人和美国人在说英语方面的一些不同，比如英国人所说的第一层就是美国人所说的第二层。这个故事说明了英国和美国虽然都讲英语，但是还是有一些文化上的差异。英国人经常隐藏他们的感情，很少和陌生人讲话，而美国人却不同，他们更积极和容易与人交谈。而且他们在一些用语上也是有差别的。1Simon went to London to_.Avisit his friend Bspend his holidayCstudy English Dhave a meeting答案：A考查细节理解。根据第1段第1句可知，Simon是去英国看望他的一个朋友。2Which picture shows us where Rick's flat was？_答案：B考查推理判断。英国人所说的第一层就相当于美国人所说的第二层。3According to the passage, the British usually spend their time_on the train.Aplaying cardsBtalking loudlyCdoing some readingDsinging and dancing答案：C根据第四段可知英国人在火车上几乎不和陌生人讲话，而是看报纸或看书。4What does the underlined word“terms”mean in Chinese in the passage？_A成果 B学期C会议 D用语答案：D考查推理判断。根据最后一句话的内容可以判断出英国和美国在一些“用语”上是有些不同的。5What's the best title for the passage？_ADifferences in cultureBSimon's funny storyCInformation abroadDHiding the feelings答案：A考查文章的主旨大意。整篇文章都是通过讲英国和美国在英语使用上的不同，从而体现了这两个国家的文化差异。111
