2019年高中英语 Module 1 British and American English
课时跟踪练(一)Introduction & Reading—Pre-readingⅠ.阅读理解AThere are some differences between American English and British English. Some differences are quite interesting.When my friend Lily from London used the word “larder”, I didn't know what it meant. Realizing I didn't follow her, she used another word. I finally knew she wanted to find something to keep some food. The next word came up when we were planning a lunch date. She jotted_down the date and time in her diary, while I marked my calendar. If she called me on the phone, she would ring me up. But if the line was busy, she would say the line was engaged.Most times, I can know what Lily means. Last week, she regretted sending her boys to watch an early morning tennis game without their fleeces. I thought that she meant without their jackets or something like those. Other times, we have to ask each other. She recently told me a funny tale about a woman who was pissed. Iwondered what had made the lady angry. It turns out that pissed means drunk.Here is one more example. My British friend Jane was filling out a ticket at the grocery store recently. She asked the young man if he had a rubber. When she noticed he didn't follow her, she quickly asked for an eraser, which, in England, is often called a rubber.In order to communicate well with the British, we Americans should learn some words that the British use differently. And I think people who learn English as a second language should also realize that there are differences between American English and British English.语篇解读:作者通过生活中的一些例子告诉我们英式英语和美式英语中一些词在使用上的差异。

BBritish English and American English are almost the same. But there are slight differences between British and American English in vocabulary, pronunciation, spelling and grammar.The first difference between British and American English is in vocabulary. Almost all of the words used in British English and American English are exactly the same. Only a very small number of words are used disparately. For example, Americans would say “apartment”,but the British would say “flat” to talk about the place where they live. In addition to some common words, many idiomatic(惯用的) expressions are different. In England people might say “I'll ring you up tonight”,but in the US, people might say “I'll call you up tonight”.The second difference between British and AmericanEnglish is in pronunciation. The main difference in pronunciation concerns the vowels (元音). Some American dialects and some British dialects use vowels in different ways. Sometimes, Americans and the British don't understand each other's pronunciation. But most of the time, the British and Americans do understand each other's pronunciation because most of the sounds of the two dialects are the same.The third difference is very small. This is the difference in spelling. A few types of words are spelled differently in British and American English. The most common example i s in a word like “center”. In British English, this word would be spelled CENTRE, while in American English the same word would be spelled CENTER. Another example is “or” vs “our”. The word “color”is spelled COLOUR in Britain but COLOR i n the US.There are a few differences in grammar, too. The British may say “Have you got ...?” while Americans prefer “Do you have ...?” An American might say “my friend just arrived”,but a British would say “my friend has just arrived”. Sometimes functio n words areused differently: the British may say “at the weekend”,but Americans would say “on the weekend”.语篇解读:本文是一篇关于英式英语和美式英语差异的文章。

Section Ⅲ Grammar—复习动词时态(Ⅰ)语法图解探究发现①It doesn't make much of a difference whether a teacher speaks British or American English.②I've already decided to join the theatre group.③Many factors have influenced American pronunciation since the first settlers arrived four hundred years ago.④A Londoner has more difficulty understanding a Scotsman from Glasgow than understanding a New Yorker.⑤Some experts believe that the two varieties are moving closer together.⑥Since the 1980s, with sa tellite TV and the Internet, it has been possible to listen to British and American English at the flick of a switch.⑦This international dimension suggests that in the future, there are going to be many “Englishes”, not just two main varieties.⑧Users of English will all be able to understand each other — wherever they are.[我的发现](1)①、④句用了一般现在时态。

Module 1 British and American EnglishA question from Brittney in the United States of America:I am an American college student who is planning to apply for work in the United Kingdom after I graduate, and I was wondering how big the language barrier would be.Alex Gooch answers:Hi Brittney. You're right. There are many well known differences between British and American English, but these differences won't cause you any serious problems if you come and work in Britain. First, there are a few noticeable GRAMMAR differences between British and American English: I'll talk about the two most important ones. First of all, when Americans make sentences using “just”,“already” or “yet”, they normally use the past simple tense, while in Britain, we use the present perfect.So an American, for example, might say, “I already had lunch.” And a British person would say, “I've already had lunch.”There are lots of examples of slight difference of spelling, such as metre(BrE)/meter(AmE), favour(BrE)/favor (AmE), organise(BrE)/organize (AmE), etc, but British and American people can understand each other without any trouble at all.Brittney, my advice to you is: don't worry about the language, and you'll be fine.[阅读障碍词]apply v.申请,应用barrier n.障碍noticeable adj.显而易见的Ⅰ.Match the word with its meaning.1.accent A.不断地;持续地2.obvious B.口音3.switch C.评论;讲话4.queue D.比较5.confusing E.种类6.compare F.不同,有区别7.variety G.排队(等候)8.differ H.令人困惑的;难懂的9.remark I.开关10.steadily J.显然的;显而易见的答案:1~5 BJIGH 6~10 DEFCAⅡ.Write down the meaning of phrases in each sentence.1.The two cultures have a lot in common.有很多共同点2.What you have told me may make a difference to my choice.

2019_2020高中英语Module1BritishandAmericanEnglishSectionⅠIntroduction
Section Ⅰ Introduction & Reading andVocabulary-ComprehendingⅠ阅读理解AThe world is changing so fast that English, perhaps the most worldly of languages, is struggling to keep up.Learners in the future are likely to be much younger.Young children are often said to be better at language learning than older learners but they also have special challenges.Young children don’t usually have the kind of instrumental motivation and determination for learning English that older learners often have.English lessons must therefore be fun and rewarding.The reasons why people learn English are also changing.Globalization is bringing together more people than ever who speak different languages and who are turning to English as the means of communication.The English learners of the future may be less worried about sounding exactly like a native speaker and more concerned about how to use English effectivel y in crosscultural communication.We may be hearing more nonnative speakers in dialogues and a wider range of the“New Englishes” now used around the world.Technology will allow English to come to you, rather than you having to go to a special place to learn English.Learning English has always involved both pain and pleasure,private effort and social activity.Traditional learning provided takeit or leaveit mixes of these as well as of content but in future learners will be able to choose a plan which suits their cultural and psychological dispositions(性情) or their particular needs at that moment.They, rather than their teachers, will decide how, what and when they will learn.Above all, learning English is about communication and an important benefit of learning English is being able to exchange views and make friends with people all over the world.Despite the growing independence of learners, trusted institutions and brand names will remain important.【解题导语】本文介绍了未来英语学习的特点。

Section Ⅳ Other Parts of the Module[原文呈现]The Man Who Made Spelling SimpleIn English the spelling of words does not always①represent②the sound. So people say/raIt/but spell it right, or write, or even rite. Combinations③ of letters (like ough) may be pronounced in a number of ways④. And some words just seem to have too many letters.For Americans things are a little bit⑤ easier, thanks to⑥ the work of Noah Webster, a teacher who graduated from⑦ Yale University in 1778⑧. As a young man⑨he had fought against⑩the British in the American War of Independence, and he felt that written English in the newly independent United States should have a distinctive ⑪“American” look⑫.[读文清障]①not always并不总是,表示部分否定。
②represent vt.代表;象征③combination/ˌkɒmbI'neIʃn/n.组合;结合④in a number of ways以多种方式⑤a little bit稍微⑥thanks to幸亏,多亏⑦graduate from毕业于⑧a teacher是Noah Webster的同位语,who引导定语从句,修饰a teacher。
