阅读理解 Englishmen speak British English and Americans speak American English. A student is learning to speak British English. He often asks himself, “Can Americans understand me when I speak British English?” Learners often ask “What’s the difference between British English and American English?”Certainly there are some differences between British and American English. The Englishmen say “Have you a pen?” While Americans say “Do you have a pen?” The pronunciation is sometimes different. Americans often sound “r” in words like “bird” and “hurt”. The British speakers don’t sound the “r” in these words. There are differences in spelling. For example, “colour” and “neighbour” are British while “color” and “neighbor” are American. These differences in grammar, pronunciation and spelling are not important, however. For the most part, British and American English are the same language. When Englishmen and Americans are talking with each other, they don’t need an interpreter(翻译).

BCDAD解析文章介绍了美国英语和英国英语之间在语法，词汇，发音等方面的差异。1.B 细节题。根据4,5行Certainly there are some differences between British and American English.可知B正确。2.C 推理题。正是因为他没有和美国人交流过，所以他才会问美国人是否能够懂他的意思。他这样问说明C正确。3.D 细节题。根据文章倒数2,3行For the most part, British and American English are the same language.可知D正确。4.A 推理题。这两句的差别在于语法结构上，美国英语是把助动词提前了，英国英语则是把have这个有特殊用法的词提前。不是拼写，发音，也不是听力。故A正确。5.D 推理题。根据Maybe some day they need, but not now.也许未来某一天他们之间说话需要翻译，说明可能在未来美国英语和英国英语之间的差异会扩大会。故D正确。
