You all right?" I tried again, She looked at me blankly 茫然地). Then suddenly the cloud seemed to litt from her mind. "Oh," she said, "You mean. 'How am I doing?" I thought you meant I had something on my faee." As a British person in China. I knew there would be cultural and language barriers (碍 between Chinese people and myself. However, I wasn't expecting there to be cultural and language barriers between myself and other English-speaking foreigners, Before the London (2012) Olympics, the Daily Mail had shared a guide to British English for CS people. For example."Those are 'chips' that go with your burger, instead of fries. You'd like some potato chips? Those are 'crisps'." Any conversation I have with a US person shows why a guide like this is necessary. British people usually know the American words from TV or tilms (sory- movies), but Americans never seem to have enough knowledge about British English. The trouble is. it's not just people from the US. When I speak English to non-English speakers, I never know whether they have learned British or Ameriean. When they say"chips", for example, do they mean "French fries" or 'potato chips"? I can't help thinking back to the Daily Mail article: "When you talk about 'pants'.. in Britain, that means underwear. "Trousers" is the better word to use. In this case, though American English seems to have taken over. Everyone I know just says 'pants". 九年英语 第4页(共8页) 13. Which country is the writer from? C.Britain. B. Amerca. A. China. D. Germany 14.

According to the Daily Mail guide, what do US people call 'chips"? C. Potatorchips. A. Fries. B. Crisps. D. Burger chips 16. What opinion might the writer hold? A. British people care little about American English B. American English is slowiy getting accepted in Britain C. Non-English speakers have no language barricrs in English. D. There is no language barrier among native English speakers 第二节阅读短文,从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,其中有一个 多余的选项.
