aamerican and british english are the same language. bamerican and british english are quite different. calthough american english came from the british english, there are still some important differences. dthere are slight differences between american and british english. 解析：选c细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句可知选c。25what does the underlined word “separately” in paragraph 2 mean? atogether. bone by one. cin common. din different ways. 解析：选b词义猜测题。由下一句 “they say several words together. ”及之后举的例子可以看出，美国人说英语会把好几个单词连在一起说，即不是一个单词一个单词地说。one by one“一个接一个”。26what does the underlined sentence “the same thing is true of some british words in america. ” mean? athe words of american and british english are the same. bthe spelling of american and british english is the same. calthough they dont sound the same，the words are the same. dsome british english words are not used in american english. 解析：选d句意理解题。从第三段中的 “some american words are never used in england. ”可以看出，有些美式英语的单词在英式英语中是不用的，可推知画线部分意为 “有些英式英语中的单词在美式英语中也不使用”。27how many ways are talked about the differences between american and british english in the passage? aone. btwo. cthree. dfour. 解析：选d细节理解题。文章在四个方面进行了探讨，它们是sound，words，expressions和grammar。cread a lot，i mean a lot！you have to increase your ability for reading. many students are in the habit of reading only when their exams are approaching while some others read only what they are taught or things that must be read because it is in their curriculum. but listen to me now, i am telling you from my own experience that it is a very bad habit and it is not enough to improve your intelligence. you have to learn and get ready to become versatile in your reading. the fact that you are studying medicine in school does not mean that you should not know one or two things on politics. many people have complained to me that they find it hard to read stuffs like novels but i just shake my head in pity for them because it is obvious they have failed to realize the truth in that wise saying by margaret fuller that “today a reader, tomorrow a leader！” when you read, you get to “see” so many places and it will be as if you have visited those places in real life. this is because reading will improve your imagination and creativity and understanding. you also get experience from learning about how people dealt with their various problems thereby saving you from going through the pains and difficulties they must have gone through!reading will also help you in improving your vocabulary because you will certainly start coming across so many new words which you will try as much as possible to get accustomed to with the help of the dictionary！the good thing about increasing your vocabulary is that it will also improve your thinking ability. after all, we think in words and the more words you know, the easier it will become for you to express yourself or your thoughts. and when you read, make sure you read so wide because the more you read, the more you know and the more you know，the more intelligent you can become. 【解题导语】本文主要讲述阅读的种种好处，进而总结出一个道理：阅读提高你的智力。28the underlined word “versatile” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_”. ainterested bmanysidedccontent dconfident解析：选b词义猜测题。根据后一句可知，在学校里，你学习一门课程的同时，还要学习其他领域的知识，因此在学习中要阅读各个方面的书籍，故可猜测versatile是 “多角度，多方面”之意。29what is the benefit of knowing more words? ayou will get used to referring to the dictionary when meeting with new words. byou will have less difficulty expressing your opinions. cvocabulary will improve your creativity. dyou can pass your exams with ease. 解析：选b细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段最后一句可推知答案。30according to the author, what should students do in terms of reading? athey neednt read unless the exams come. bthey should read books about intelligence. cthey must read about politics when their major is medicine. dthey should read as wide as possible. 解析：选d细节理解题。根据文章最后一段可知，作者认为一个人应当尽量广泛阅读。故选d。31what is the best title for the passage?
