But sometimes it does not seem like the same language. In fact, there are some important differences between British English and American English. First of all, they sound very different. Often, Americans don‟t say each word separately. They say several words together. Americans may say “I dunno” instead of “I don‟t know”. Or they may say “Whaddya say?” instead of “What did you say?” However, the British are more careful in their speech. They usually say all the words and keep them separate. Sound is not only the difference between British English and American English. Words sometimes have different meanings too. Some American words are never used in England. The same thing is true of some British words in America. For example, the vocabulary for cars and driving is very different. Americans drive trucks, but in England people drive lorries. Many expressions are also different in the two countries. In England, if you are going to telephone your friends, you “phone them up”. In America, you “give them a call”. When you are saying goodbye in England you might say “Cheerio!” In America you might say “See you later.” There‟re also some differences in grammar. For example, Americans usually use the helping verb “do” when they ask a question. They say “Do you have a storybook?” But the British often leave out the helping verb. They say “Have you a storybook?” All these differences can be confusing if you are learning English. But most languages are like this. Languages change over time. When people live in separate places, the languages change in different ways. This is what has happened to English. It can also happen to other languages, such as French. Many people in Canada speak French but their French is very different from the French of France. 61. What does the word “separately” mean in this passage? It means “_____”.

Helping them enjoy science can be easy。 there‟s no need for a lot of scientific terms or modern labs. You only have to share your children‟s interests. Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of sevenyearold children to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, the money I got and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facing each other silently. Finally I said, “Now that we‟ve finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?”After a long wait, a boy put up his hand, “Have you ever seen a rabbit eat? When I try eating grass like that, I get ill. Why?” This began a lot of questions that lasted nearly two hours. Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, many teachers usually wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When teachers increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give better answers. Thirdly, watch your language. When the child is having a science discussion, don‟t jump in with “That‟s right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it es to encouraging a child to help others. But in talking about science, these words make a child think that the discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying, “That‟s interesting” or “I‟ve never thought of it th。
