Unit 2 EXPLORING ENGLISH
Understanding ideas
Neither Pine nor Apple in Pineapple
Have you ever asked yourself why people often have trouble learning English? I hadn’t,
until one day my five-year-old son asked me whether there was ham in a hamburger.
There isn’t. This made me realize that there’s no egg in eggplant either. Neither is there
pine nor apple in Pineapple. This got me thinking how English can be a crazy language to
learn.
For example, in our free time we can sculpt a sculpture and paint a painting, but we take a
photo. And when we are traveling we say that we are in the car or the taxi, but on the train
or bus! While we’re doing all this traveling, we can get seasick at sea, airsick in the air and
carsick in a car, but we don’t get homesick when we get back home. And speaking of
home, why aren’t homework and housework the same thing?

A
Tom Belt,a native of Oklahoma,didn’t know the English language until he began
school.In his home,conversations took place in Cherokee.Belt grew up riding
horses,and after college travelled around the country doing the rodeo(牛仔竞技竞赛).Finally,he wound up in North Carolina and married a woman he met at school 20
