British and American English教案
some differences are small, and one soon becomes used to them. for example, many people find it strange that americans move from place to place so often. born in one city, they may attend school in a second, enter business in a third, and perhaps move several times during their lives. today, most americans fully expect and accept the fact that they will move frequently.
however, houses are of great interest to americans. they spend a lot of time thinking, reading and talking about their homes and how to improve them. they also enjoy looking at other people’s houses, since they would enjoy visiting and examining a house in another country, they may suppose that you will probably have the same desire(strong wish) when you visit the united states. so do not be surprised when you visit an american family and are shown every room in the house besides the bathroom and kitchen.
