高中英语Module1BritishandAmericanEnglishSectionⅠIntrodu ction&ReadingPrereading教案含解析外研版必修5083011Module 1 British and American English Although people still talk about different types of English —American English, Australian English, and Indian English —it is interesting to notice how close they are to each other nowadays. Any native speaker reading or listening to another “type” of English will understand almost every word.However, largely because of global communication, cinema, television and especially the Internet, different types of English have influenced each other a lot recently. This is coming in one side — from the US to Britain — and it has changed our daily language so much. Teens and young adults in Britain use American vocabulary that has crossed the Atlantic all the time —things that young speakers like a lot are described as cool or awesome, and, as a way to refuse to do something impossible, we often hear the phrase No way!I was fortunate enough to work on a vocabulary research project, which is called the English Vocabulary Profile. What did we find out? There are some words that are still British or American. British people have biscuits with their cup of tea or coffee, but Americans have cookies. We also have cookies in Britain, but they are a certain type of biscuits, such as chocolate chip cookies, where the original recipe is American. Americans who are wearing pants definitely have their legs covered, but if a British person is dressed only in pants, they are in their underwear!Phrasa l verbs (verbs with two or more words like “take off” or “live up to”) are another area of difference, and there are slightly fewer of them in American English. When British and American speakers, for example, talk of a relationship breaking up, Americans will not use this phrasal verb to mean “finishing a school term” as we do in Britain.Overall, the 10 most common words (the, of, to, and, a, in, that, is, for and I) are the same in both countries, and the vast majority of the 5,000 most common words in the UK are also in the USA's top 5,000.Section_ⅠIntroduction_&_Reading_—_Pre­reading[原文呈现]Words, words, wordsBritish and American English are different in① many ways.

Module 1British and American English Words,Words,WordsBritish and American English are different in many ways英式英语和美式英语在很多方面是不同的。

The first and most obvious way is in the vocabulary.首先，最为明显的方面是在词汇方面。

There are hundreds of different words which are not used on the other side of the Atlantic, or which are used with a different meaning.有成百上千的不同的词在大西洋彼岸是不被使用的或以不同的意思被使用。

Some of these words are well-known – Americans drive automobiles down freeways and fill up with gas; the British drive cars along motorways and fill up with petrol.有一些词是非常有名的，美国人在高速公路上驾驶时给车（automobile 汽车）加油加的是gas；而英国人通常来给车加油用的是petrol（汽油）。

As a tourist, you will need to used the underground in London or the subway in New York, or maybe you will prefer to get around the town by taxi (British) or cab (American).做为一个游客，你在伦敦将会使用underground來指地铁或在纽约使用subway，或许你将会更愿意选择用出租车taxi（英国）或cab（美国）来游览城市。
