Pronunciation among the three types of English can be different.In American English, the “r” at the end of a word almost always affects its pronunciation, while in Australian and British English, the “r” is often silent.Australian English is unique due to the fact that many words have sounds that are gone.Instead of saying “good day”， Australian speakers say “g' day”．The main pronunciation difference among the three, however, is the pronunciation of the vowel(元音) sounds. Not only do the three types of English sound different, but they are also spelled differently.In some ways, the spelling shows the difference in pronunciation.For example, Americans use the word “airplane”．In Britain, the word is “aeroplane”， and it is pronounced with an “o” sound.Another example is the word “aluminium”， which is the UK spelling, and “aluminum” is the US spelling.Can you find the difference? In this example, the Australian spelling is the same as the UK spelling. Another common spelling difference between British English and American English is the use of“­our” or “­or” at the end of a word.For example, in the UK, colour, flavour, honour are words that all end with “­our”．In America, they are spelled with the “­or” ending.In Australia, the“­our” spelling is almost universal. Also, the endings“­re” and“­er” are different between different English dialects.In America, you will go to the theater or fitness center, while in Britain you will visit the theatre or fitness centre.Again, Australian English follows the British way. 1．What does the main pronunciation difference between American English and British English lie in? A．The last sound of a word. B．The words with sounds that are gone. C．The vowel sounds of some words. D．The sound of “r” at the end of a word. 2．Which of the following words belongs to the Australian spelling? A．Airplane.　　　　　　　 B．Flavor. C．Theater. D．Aluminium. 3．What can we know about Australian English? A．It has become the most popular English now. B．It is more difficult to learn than American English. C．It follows the American way more than the British way. D．It follows the British way more than the American way. 4．What's the author's purpose in writing this text? A．To show that English has developed differently in different countries. B．To tell the differences among American, British and Australian English. C．To encourage us to explore the differences of English used in different countries. D．To suggest we speak different English when chatting with people from different countries. 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚英语、英国英语和美国英语的一些不同点。 1．C　[解析]细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“The main pronunciation difference among the three, however, is the pronunciation of the vowel sounds.(然而，这三种形式发音的主要区别在于元音的发音。)”可知，美国英语和英国英语发音的不同在于一些单词的元音发音。故选C。 2．D　[解析]细节理解题。根据第三段可知，aluminium是英国英语的拼写，澳大利亚英语拼写和英国英语拼写一样。故选D。 3．D　[解析]细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Again, Australian English follows the British way.(澳大利亚英语又一次沿袭了英国英语的方式。)”可知，澳大利亚英语更多地遵循英国的方式而不是美国的方式。故选D。 4．B　[解析]推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Here are some of the common differences that you will find among these three kinds of English.”及全文内容可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍澳大利亚英语、英国英语和美国英语的一些不同点。故选B。 Ⅴ.完形填空 Have you ever seen the advertisement: Learn a foreign language in six weeks, __1__ give your money back?
