    Early rising(早起) is helpful in more than one way. First, it helps us to have good health. We all need fresh air. It makes our health better to take morning exercises. The air is never so fresh as early in the morning. Secondly, early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easy to learn something by heart. Thirdly, early rising makes people able to plan the work for the day. We can't work well without a good plan. Just as the plan for the year should be made in the spring, the plan for a day should be made in the morning. Early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and eat our breakfast. Late risers may find it very difficult to form(形成) the habit(习惯) of early rising. They have to make an effort(努力) to do so. As the popular saying says, "Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy (富有的) and wise."

Spoken English was almost the same in the American colonies(殖民地) and Britain 200 years ago. Americans began to change the sound of their speech after the Revolutionary War in 1776. They wanted to make it different from the British in language.

Webster wrote a dictionary of the American language in 1828. It established(创建) rules for speaking and spelling the words used in American English. Webster wrote that all words should be said in the order of the letters that spell them. This is why Americans use the letters “er” to end many words instead of the British “re.” He spelled the word “center,” for example, “c-e-n-t-e-r,” instead of the British “c-e-n-t-r-e.” Webster said every part of a word should be spoken. That is why Americans say “sec-re-ta-ry” instead of “sec-re-try,” as the British do. Webster’s rule for saying every part of a word made American English easier for foreigners to learn.

The different languages of many people who came to the United States also helped make American and British English different. 

Sometimes Americans and British people do not understand each other because of different word meanings. For example, the word “jumper” in Britain means a sweater. In the United States, it is a dress. The British word “brolly” is an “umbrella” in America. And the British call potato chips “crisps.” All of these differences led British writer George Bernard Shaw to joke that Britain and America are two countries separated by the same language!

(   )51. Why did Americans want to change their sound of their speech?

 A. Because Webster wrote a dictionary.

 B. Because the Revolutionary War happened.

 C. They wanted to make it the same as the British in language.

 D. They wanted to make it different from the British in language.

(   )52. What does the underlined word ‘separated’ mean in the last paragraph?

 A. 分离           B. 连接      C. 合并    D. 结合

(   )53. Which is NOT true according to this article?

 A. “Crisps” is a British word.

 B. The British word “brolly” is an “umbrella” in America.

 C. American English is easier for foreigners to learn.

 D. The word “jumper” means the same in American and British English.

(   )54. Which word is NOT American English?

 A. meter    B. theatre    C. secretary   D. jumper

(   )55. What’s the best title for this passage？

 A. American English                     B. Two countries 

 C. British English                       D. American and British English
