Like most English children I learned French 2 school and I had often been to France, so I 3 speaking a foreign language to people who didn't understand 4 . But when I went to America I was really looking forward to 5 a nice easy holiday without any 6 problems.

   7 wrong I was! The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a 8 telephone to give my American friend Danny a 9 and tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked 10 he could help me. “Yes,” I said, “I want to give my friend a ring.” “Well, that's 11 .” he exclaimed, “Are you getting 12 ? But aren't you a bit 13 ?” “Who is talking about marriage?” I replied, “I 14 want to give my friend a ring to tell her I've arrived. Can you tell me 15 there's a phone box?” “Oh!” he said, “there's a phone downstairs.”

  When at last we 16 meet up, Danny explained the misunderstandings to me. “Don't worry.” she said to me, “I had so many 17 at first. There are lots of words which the Americans 18 differently in meaning from us British. You'll soon get used to 19 funny things they say.

解析:

  1.从短文首句I made my first visit to the United States得知,这是“我”到国外去,因此选abroad,意思是“到国外”.

  2.上学的时候学过法语.

  3.因为上学时学过法语,又加上“我”经常到法国去,因此“我”已经习惯与人们说外语了.全文叙述的是过去的情况,因此应该用过去时.

  4.因为我懂法语,因此我能够与那些不懂英语的人讲话.

  5having a nice easy holiday“有一个偷快、轻松的假期”.

  6.前面讲的是“我”在语言上足以能过关,因此说“我”想没有语言问题.

  7How引导感叹句.How修饰形容词wrong,表示程度.

  8.因为这时“我”在机场,因此“我”想找一个公用电话.

  9.从下文I want to give my friend a ring得此答案.

  10.他问“我”他是否能帮助“我”.if引导宾语从句,意思是“是否”.

  11.从后文我们可以看出老人以为“我”要结婚,因此他说“很好”来表示祝贺.

  12.从下句 Who is talking about marriage?得此答案.get married意思是“结婚”.

  13.从短文首句When I was only 16 years old我们得知,老人觉得“我”的年龄还不适合结婚,因此他说“但是,你不是还太年轻了吗?”

  14just在此相当于only

  15.很明显,“我”想让他告诉“我”电话亭的位置.

  16did用在肯定句中起强调作用.

  17.联系上下文,Danny在这里说她也遇到过一些麻烦.

  18.上文中所出现的情况是语言使用习惯的问题,因此Danny说美国人在使用单词的意思上与英国人不同.

  19.从下句Most of the British and American people understand each other我们可以看出,Danny对“我”说,“我”不久就会对这一切习惯的.

  20.大多数时间,美国人和英国人能彼此理解.
