     Bridge of Hope School is a private school. It was set up in Kalangala about two years
ago.Unlike government schools, which have very large classes of 90 children , many of
whom do not want to learn, Bridge has small classes, so pupils get a great deal of attention.
Small classes are good for teaching, but the school is always having difficulty with money
since private schools are dependent on parents paying on time.
     The school has five primary classes and three nursery classes(幼兒班). As the children
progress through the school they will add another class next year. The total number of children
in the primary is about 50. The parents of Bridge children are often higher earners than those
that attend government schools. They want their children to have the best education available.
     The school is not yet finished. The classrooms have no windows or doors. But it is very
formal and insists on children wearing uniforms(制服).Discipline is strict and the children are
well-behaved. Only English may be spoken and not the local language. Although English is
the national language and the language of education, government schools teach in their own
language for the first three years.
     School starts at 7 am and the children have to be on time. Classes are formal, but children
have to copy lots of things from the blackboard, because there are few textbooks, sometimes
only one for the teacher to use. Class work is heavy and the children have tests every week.
They also study during the holiday.
1. Parents send their children to Bridge of Hope School because they______.
A. think the school environment is better there
B. hope their children get the best education
C. want their children to be different
D. have no time to take care of their children
2. What can we learn about government schools?______
A. The classes consist of a large number of students.
B. Teachers don't speak English in class.
C. Children always work very hard.
D. It is free for children to attend them.
3. Which of following is TRUE about Bridge of Hope School according to the text?______
A. Children can wear what they like there.
B. Textbooks are not needed.
C. Lessons are given in the local language there.
D. Life there is not easy for children.

American English and British English

　　The Americans and British use different greetings. In the USA the commonest greeting is “Hi!”. In Britain it is “Hello!” or “How are you?”. “Hi!” is creeping into(不知不覺地進(jìn)入) British, too. When they are introduced to someone, the Americans say, “Glad to know you.” The British say, “How do you do?” or “Please to meet you.” When Americans say “Good-bye”, they nearly always add, “Have a good day.” or “Have a good trip.” etc. to friends and strangers alike. Britons are beginning to use “Have a good day.”

　　The British usually use “have got” in the sense of “have”. The Americans hardly ever do.

　　Am. E：－Do you have a. car, room, etc.?

　�。璝es, I do.

　　Br. E：－Have you got a car, room, etc.?

　　－Yes, I have.

　　Finally, there are a number of differences between American and British English in the spelling of words, for example, check (US)/cheque (UK); center (US)/centre (UK). Many American words ending in “or” such as honor, vigor, labor are spelt in British English with an “our” like honour, vigour, labour. Many verbs in American English with “ize” or “izing” forms, such as organize, realizing, are spelt in British English with “ise” or “ising” like organise, realising. In American English, “practice” is used as both a verb and a noun. In British English, the verb is spelt “practise”, and the noun “practice”. And in the main, American English avoids the doubling up of consonants(輔音字母) in nouns and verbs while British English does not. In American English, for example, one writes “travel, traveled, traveling, traveler” while in British English one writes “travel, travelled, travelling, traveller”.

　　It was once predicted(預(yù)測) that British and American English would become separate languages finally. But the opposite has happened. The links(連接) between the two countries are so strong that linguistically(語言上), and probably culturally(文化上) too, they are closer together than ever.

1．The American hardly say ________.

[　　]

A．Good-bye, have a good day!

B．Glad to know you!

C．Hi!

D．Have you got a car?

2．An Englishman writes ________.

[　　]

A．cheque, center
B．honor, organise
C．traveled, practice
D．labour, traveller

3．What does the third paragraph talk about?

[　　]

A．There are lots of differences in spelling between Am. E and Br. E.

B．Why the Americans and the British use different spellings.

C．There are few differences in spelling between Am. E and Br. E.

D．The different usages of words in Am. E and Br. E.
