British English and American English
A student is studying British English. He wonders: Can I have a talk with Americans? Can they catch me? Learners of English often ask--what are the differences between British English and American English? How important are these differences?
Certainly, there are some differences between British English and American English. There are a few differences in grammar（语法）. For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?” Pronunciation (发音) is sometimes different. Americans usually sound the “r” in words like “car”and “farm”. Some speakers of British English do not sound the “r” in these words. There are differences between British English and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, “colour”and “honour” are British English spellings. “Color” and “honor” are American English spellings.
These differences are in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary. However, they are not important. For the most part, British English and American English are the same language.

For the British, the home is private place in which he or she goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that one would be invited to a British person’s home. It is rude to knock on a person’s door if you are not invited. If you are invited, don’t ask to see more than the downstairs that your British host invites you into. Never ask how much the house or any of the items in if cost.
To the American, most of them want their home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their lives with their friends. They may be delighted to give you a full tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your interest and pleasure in their houses.
Both British and American people will engage in quite a bit of chat and a drink or two before the meal is served. After the first mouthful, you should say how delicious the food is and ask something about it. Remember, never eat with your mouth open and make very little noise while eating. It would be nice of you to help your host in any way. Maybe offer to pour some drinks or clear up after the meal.

九年级英语阅读理解困难题查看答案及解析
If you meet a British person in the street，it is very likely that he or she will apologize whether it is his or her fault(过错) or not.
It seems that Britain is becoming a nation where everyone is saying sorry.Almost each person says sorry about eight times each day—and one in eight people apologize as many as 20 times a day.
As you may have seen，the British apologize more often than members of other cultures.A research shows that in many cases，people's love of saying sorry in Britain goes a little further than it does for Americans.For example，about 15 British people would say “sorry” while only 10 from the US would do this if they sneezed，if they corrected someone's mistake or if someone knocked into them.
In the old days，“sorry” was used to express regret and sadness for having done something wrong.But now British people use the word as a way of showing good manners.For example，they might say “sorry” instead of “excuse me”，“pardon”，“what” or “whatever”．
People in Britain also use “sorry” when they share the same feeling with others—so they might say “sorry about the rain”．
However，British people's use of “sorry” may make things very confusing(不清楚的) and difficult for foreigners who are not familiar with their ways.But actually，people in Britain pay much attention to the feelings of others.This is the reason why they apologize every day.

2.In the old days，people said sorry when they ________.

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Americans say sorry more than British people.
B. Even British people get confused when they say sorry.
C. Almost every person in Britain says sorry 20 times a day.
D. The British also say sorry to share the same feeling with others.
