Words，words，words British and American English are different in many ways. The first and most obvious way is in the vocabulary. 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. 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. As a tourist，

必修5课文翻译Module 1British and American EnglishWords,Words,Words英式英语和美式英语在很多方面是不同的。
首先，最为明显的方面是在词汇方面。
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。
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）。
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。
Chips or French fries？但是其他词语和表达方式没有这麽广泛的被人所知。
美国人把手电筒成为flashlight然而在英国，它被称做torch（火炬，火把；喷灯，吹管；光芒）。
在英国英语当中，排队要用queue up 而在美国要用stand in line 。
有的时候同一个单词在意义上有轻微差别，这和种差别有事会使人疑惑不解。
例如：Chips 在英国中指的是油炸的或热炸的薯条；在美国，Chips 是非常薄的并且是放在袋里出售的。
英国人称它为Crisps英国人所熟悉并喜欢的这中薯条在大西洋彼岸却被称之为French fries 。
Have or have got ？在语法方面英式英语和美式英语也有一些不同。
英国人通常说“have you got ...?”而美国人更愿意使用“Do you have ...?”一个美国人通常会说“My friend has just arrived .”但是一个英国人通常会说“My friend has just arrived.”介词的用法也有一定不同：我们可以比较一下，在美式英语中用on the team ,on the weekend 在英式英语中用in the team ,at the weekend 。

Webster is best known for his American Dictionary of the English Language，which first
appeared in 1828.It introduced lots of new American words，with information about their pronunciation and use，and，of course，the new spelling. The British criticised the dictionary，but
Many of the suggestions were quickly adopted. Center instead of centre，program instead of programme，and flavor instead of flavour. Others ，however，such as removing silent letters like the s in island or the final e in examine，were not.
因此他开始从事他的美式英语的工作。他的 第一本书，《初级拼写书》，提出了简化英语单 词的拼写。这本书相当受欢迎。到19世纪50年代 为止，该书以每年一百万册的速度销售，成为有 史以来最受欢迎的学校用书之一。
其中许多建议很快被采纳。center 代替了 centre，program 代替了 programme，flavor 代 替了 flavour。然而其他的都没有被采纳，比如直 接删掉不发音的字母，像 island 中的 s 或 examine 中最后的 e。
韦伯斯特因为他编的《美式英语词典》而闻 名，这本书最初在1828年问世。书中介绍了许多 新的美国单词，有其相关的发音和用法，当然也 有新的拼写法。英国人批判了这本字典，但是在 美国，它很快成为标准参考书。如今，韦伯斯特 词典仍然是美国学生的首选词典。

The Man Who Made Spelling SimpleIn English the spelling of words does not always represent the sound.So people say /rait/but spell it right,or write,or even binations ofletters(like ough) may be pronounced in a number of ways.And some words just seem to have too many letters.For Americans things are a little bit easier,thanks to the work of Noah Webster,a teacher who graduated from Yale University in 1778.As a young man he had fought against the British in the American War of Independence,and he felt that written English in the newly independent United States shoud have a distinctive “American” look.So he began his work on American English. His first book,The Elementary Spelling Book,suggested simplifying the spelling of English words. The book was extremely popular. By the 1850s it was selling one million copies a year, making it one of the most popular school books ever.Many of the suggestions were quickly adopted.Center instead ofcentre,program instead of programme,and flavor instead of programme,and flavor instead of flavour. Others,however,such as removing silent letters like the s in island or the final e in examine,were not.Webster is best known for his American Dictionary of the English Language,which first appeared in 1828.It introduced lots of new American words,with information about their pronunciation and use,and,of course,the new spelling. The British criticised the dictionary,but it quickly became a standard reference book in the States.Today,Webster’s dictionary is still the number one dictionary for American students.中文翻译：让拼写变简单的男人在英语中，单词的拼写不是总能代表发音。

Growing Jobs What sort of jobs will people be doing ten years from now？According to a survey published by an American university，the ten fastest growing jobs will be related to computers and health. They include computer systems analysts，data analysts and database managers. But there will also be a rise in the demand for health care professionals. Some of these will be new jobs，such as bioinformaticians，

MARTY’S STORYHi, my name is Marry Fielding and I guess you could say that I am one in a million. In other words, there are not many people like me. You see, I have a muscle disease which makes me very weak, so I cant run or climb stairs as quickly as other people. In addition, sometimes I am very clumsy and drop things or bump into furniture. Unfortunately, the doctors dont know how to make me better, but I am very outgoing and have learned to adapt to my disability. My motto is: live One day at a time.Until I was ten years old I was the same as everyone else. I used to climb trees, swim and play football. In fact, I used to dream about playing professional football and possibly representing my country in the World Cup. Then I started to get weaker and weaker, until I could only enjoy football from a bench at the stadium. In the end I went into hospital for medical tests. I stayed there for nearly three months. I think I had at least a billion tests, including one in which they cut out a piece of muscle from my leg and looked at it under a microscope. Even after all that, no one could give my disease a name and it is difficult to know what the future holds.One problem is that I dont look any different from other people. Sosometimes some children in my primary school would laugh, when I got out of breath after running a short way or had to stop and rest halfway up the stairs. Sometimes, too, I was too weak to go to school so my education suffered. Every time I returned after an absence, I felt stupid because I was behind the others.My life is a lot easier at high school because my fellow students have accepted me. The few who cannot see the real person inside my body do not make me annoyed, and I just ignore them. All in all I have a good life.I am happy to have found many things I can do, like writing and computer programming. My ambition is to work for a firm that develops computer software when I grow up. Last year invented a computer football game and a big company has decided to buy it from me. I have a very busy life with no time to sit around feeling sorry for myself. As well as going to the movies and football matches with my friends, I spend a lot of time with my pets. I have two rabbits, a parrot, a tank full of fish and a tortoise. To look after my pets properly takes a lot of time but I find it worthwhile. I also have to do a lot of work, especially if I have been away for a while.In many ways my disability has helped me grow stronger psychologically and become more independent. I have to work hard to live a normal life but it has been worth it. If I had a chance to say one thing to healthy children, it would be this: having a disability does not mean your life isnot satisfying. So dont feel sorry for the disabled or make fun of them, and dont ignore them either. Just accept them for who they are, and give them encouragement to live as rich and full a life as you do.Thank you for reading my story.Unit 1马丁的故事嗨,我的名字是马丁。

有时候，Sometimes the same word has a slightly different meaning, which can be confusing. 同一个单词在意义上一点细微的差别就让人很困惑。
Chips, for example, are pieces of hot fried potato in Britain; in the States chips are very thin and are sold in packets.比如chips这个词在英国是热炸的薯条，在美国chips却指非常薄而且装在纸袋里出售的薯片。

Americanspelling seems simpler:美式英语的拼写看上去更简单一些：center, color and program instead of centre, colour and programme. center, color和program 是美式拼法，centre, colour 和programme 是英式拼法。
Many factors have influenced American pronunciation since the first settlers arrived four hundred years ago. 自从400年前第一批移民的到来，有很多因素影响了美语发音。
The accent, which is most similar to British English, can be heard on the East Coast of the US. 在美国东海岸能够听到跟英式英语非常接近的口音。
When the Irish writer George Bernard Shaw made the famous remark that the British and the Americans are two nations divided by a common language, he was obviously thinking about the differences. 当爱尔兰作家萧伯纳讲那句名言：英国和美国是被同一种语言分开的两个民族的时候，他显然想到了它们的区别。
But are they really so important? 但是这些区别真的如此重要吗?After all, there is probably as much variation of pronunciation within the two countries as between them.毕竟，两个国家境内的口音差别可能跟两国之间的口音差别一样多。
A Londoner has more difficulty understanding a Scotsman from Glasgow thanunderstanding a New Yorker.一个伦敦人要听懂来自格拉斯哥的苏格兰人讲话可能比理解一个纽约人更难。
Turn on the TV打开电视机Some experts believe that the two varieties are moving closer together.很多专家相信这两种语言变体正在越来越接近。
For more than a century communications across the Atlantic have developed steadily. 一个多世纪以来，大西洋两岸的交流稳步发展。

This non-stop communication, the experts think, has made it easier for British people and Americans to understand each other. 专家们认为，这种不间断的交流使得英国人和美国人相互理解起来更加容易。
But it has also led to lots of American words and structures passing into British English, so that some people now believe that British English will disappear.但是这也致使许多美式英语单词和结构传人英式英语，以至于现在有一些人相信英式英语将要消失。
However, if you turn on CNN, the American TV network, you find newsreaders and weather forecasters all speaking with different accents - American, British, Australian, and even Spanish.然而，如果你打开美国电视网络节目CNN，你会发现新闻播报员和天气预报员操着不同的口音---美国的，英国的，澳大利亚的，甚至西班牙的。
