A

One day an American called Simon went to London to visit his friend, Rick. Rick

told him that his flat was on the first floor. When he arrived, Simon went straight to the first floor of the building. But he was told that there was no one called Rick on that floor. Do you know why?

In fact, the British 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 some differences in culture between Britain and America, though the British and Americans both speak English.

The British usually hide their feelings. They seldom start a conversation 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 many things. The British usually use football, eraser and mail while Americans like to use soccer, rubber and post.

When we go to other countries, we’d better go online to search for something about the cultures there. It’ll be helpful for the trip. 21. Simon went to London to . A. have a meeting B. study English C. spend his holiday D. visit his friend 22. Which picture shows us where Rick’s flat was?
