　　 Listening Text :

　　　 David : What‘ s it like living in England , Terry ?

　　　 Terry : Well , I’ m having a great time , But I guess I sometimes have a little difficulty understanding what people are saying .

　　　 David : Can you explain a bit more ? Do you have some trouble with our pronunciation ?

　　　 Terry : No , but you use a lot of different words over here that I don‘ t understand.

　　　 David : Can you give an example ?

　　　 Terry : A woman said she would ring me the next day .

　　　 David : What’ s strange about that ?

　　　 Terry : Well , we say , I‘ ll call you tomorrow ,

　　　 David : Now that sounds very funny to me !

　　　 Terry : There’ s another thing . In the States people stand closer to each other than English people . For example , if I‘ m talking to English people at a party . I find that they stand quite a long way away from me .

　　 　David : Anything else ?

　　　 Terry : Well , yes , It’ s clear to me that English people don‘ t like touching somebody or being touched , Now in the States touch is important , Friends touch each other on the arm , for example . And we often put an arm round a friend when we say " Hello " or " Goodbye " . So I have to remember not to touch people when I’ m in England.

　　　 David : What else ?

For example , the English say ask[ a:sk] , dance[ da:ns], while the Americans say , In England they pronounce not ,box in America they say [nat] , [baks] .The words colour , metre and traveled in British English are spelt color , meter and traveled in American English . Sometimes different words are used for the same thing ,For example , in England they use autumn , ground , floor and toilet , in American they use fall . first floor and rest room and so on .
