Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that they should stay at bed and breakfast houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.We didnt stay at bed and breakfast houses, they said, because we found that most families were away on holiday.I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought VACANCIES meant holidays, because the Spanish word for holidays is vacaciones. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said VACANCLES, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said NO VACANCLES, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word DIVERSION means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word DIVERSION on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hold.English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris, when someone offered me some more coffee, I said Thank you in French. I meant that I would like some more, However, to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that Thank you in French means Mo, thank you.（1）My Spanish friends wanted advice about _. A . learning EnglishB . finding places to stay in EnglandC . driving their car on English roadsD . going to England by car（2）I suggested that they stay at bed and breakfast houses because _. A . they would be able to practise their EnglishB . it would be much cheaper than staying in hotelsC . it would be convenient for them to have dinnerD . there would be no problem about finding accommodation there（3）NO VACANCIES in English means _. A . no free roomsB . free roomsC . not away on holidayD . holidays（4）If you see a road sign that says Diversion, you will _. A . fall into a holeB . have a lot of fun and enjoy yourselfC . find that the road is blocked by crowds of peopleD . have to take a different road（5）When someone offered me more coffee and I said Thank you in French, I _.
