The day was like any other day in his life, Tom walked past the shop on the street corner. He
stopped to look at the front row of shoes, and he felt happy to see that the pair of shoes he wanted very much were still there. Looking down, he felt sorry for himself. He really wanted to have them for his birthday.
    He sadly walked away and thought how to tell his mother about it. He knew she would give him anything he liked if she could. But he also knew very well she had little money. He decided not to go home at once, as he looked worried and his mother would notice (注意) it.

So he went to the park and sat on the grass. Then he saw a boy in a wheel chair(轮椅). He noticed that the boy moved the wheel with his hands. Tom looked at him carefully and was surprised to see the boy have no feet. He looked at his own feet. "It's much better to be without shoes than without feet," he thought. There was no reason (理由) for him to feel so sorry and sad. He sent away and smiled, thinking he was happier.

One day, an American man Eddison went to London to visit his friend, Jack. Jack told him that his flat(公寓) was on the first floor. When he arrived, Eddison went straight to the first floor of the building. But a man told him that there was no Jack on that floor. Do you know why?

In fact, the British (英国人) call the first floor of a building the ground floor. The floor above the ground floor is the first floor, but Americans would call it the second floor.

The story shows that there are a few culture differences between Britain and America, though the British and Americans both speak English.

The British don’t like showing their feelings. They hardly start a small talk with strangers. For example, on the train the British often spend their time reading newspapers or books. But Americans are quite different. They’re more active and easier to talk with.

The British and Americans may use different terms for the same things. The British usually use “football” “holiday” and “lift”, but Americans like to use “soccer” “vacation” and “elevator”.

31. Eddison went to London to _____.

A. visit his friend        B. spend his holiday

C. study English        D. have a meeting

32. Which picture shows where Jack’s flat was?

A.  B.   C.   D.

33. According to the passage, the British usually spend their time _____ on the train.

 A. playing cards         B. talking loudly

 C. doing some reading      D. singing and dancing

34. What does the underlined word “terms” mean in the passage?

 A. 成果      B. 学期   C. 会议      D. 词语   

35. What’s the best title for the passage?

   A. Culture differences between Britain and America
