                                                                                          British English and American English
      A student is studying British English. He wonders: Can I have a talk with Americans? Can they catch me? Learners of English often ask--what are the differences between British English and American English? How important are these differences?
       Certainly, there are some differences between British English and American English. There are a few differences in grammar(语法). For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?” Pronunciation (发音) is sometimes different. Americans usually sound the “r” in words like “car”and “farm”. Some speakers of British English do not sound the “r” in these words. There are differences between British English and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, “colour”and “honour” are British English spellings. “Color” and “honor” are American English spellings.
      These differences are in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary. However, they are not important. For the most part, British English and American English are the same language.

Bees are truly fascinating insects that we often see flying around gardens or woods. They move from one flower to another and might even come inside our homes. They make the skies of gardens or forests more beautiful. 

What does a bee look like? A bee has six legs and two sets of wings on each side of its body. Its body is divided into three parts: the head, thorax (胸部), and abdomen (腹部). Bees have two feelers on their heads called antennaeand two large eyes on each side. They come in different colors and shapes. 

Then, are all bees the same? No, they come in different colors and shapes, and there are many different kinds of bees. In Ireland, there are 101 different kinds of bees. However, only honey bees make honey that we eat, while other bees don't make honey at all. There is only one kind of honey bee that lives in Ireland. The places that honey bees live in are also different, including hives (蜂箱), holes and even nests made from leaves. 

What does a bee eat? Bees feed themselves with nectar and pollen (花粉), which they collect from flowers. Nectar, a sweet liquid (液体)found in flowers, serves as the primary energy source for bees. Honey bees use it to make honey. Meanwhile, yellow pollen sticks to the bees' hairy legs as they gather food. 

Why are bees important? While we enjoy honey as a sweet treat and beeswax (蜂蜡)for candlemaking, bees play a far more important role in our life. Besides, bees are very important to nature because they bring pollen from one plant to another on their hairy legs. Without the hardworking bees, the growth of fruits and crops would be seriously influenced, highlighting their special role in protecting our environment and farming. 

 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Camping is a fun way to get family and friends together to enjoy the outdoors. Follow these tips to make sure your camping trip is safe and healthy.

Bring safe and healthy food along on your camping trip. Eating some food may increase the risk of developing certain illnesses.

Camping is a great way to get physical activity. Do things such as walking, hiking, biking and swimming to stay active during your camping trip. Be sure to bring protective equipment and take steps to avoid getting hurt during activities. Never hike or swim alone. Watch kids closely.

Some wild animals carry illnesses that are dangerous for people. Avoid touching, feeding and getting near wild animals. Enjoy watching them from a safe place in their natural surroundings.

Mosquitoes and other insects can cause certain illnesses. To help fight the bite, apply (敷) the drug over exposed skin. Be sure to follow directions on the package. Wear long sleeves, pants and light-colored clothing.

Always prepare for the unexpected. Before you leave, check the weather report, learn about safety at your camp location, and tell family and friends your plans. Be sure to bring along a first-aid kit, a map, blankets, batteries, food, water and clothes. Know who to contact at the camp. When you return home, check your sunburn and other problems.
