Similarly, Australian English and New Zealand English have few differences, except Australia was originally settled as a penal col
13、ony (罪犯流放地) and New Zealand was not. New Zealanders were more attached to the Received Pronunciation of the upper class in England, so their dialect is considered closer to British English. British colonialism (殖民主义) has spread English all over the world, and it is still popular in South Africa, Ind
14、ia, and Singapore, among other nations. In South Africa, English became an official language, along with Afrikaans and 9 African languages, in the 1996 constitution.

15、ho speak Afrikaans, and the rest are native Africans. India became independent from Britain in 1947. However, today English and Hindi are the official languages. Indian English is characterized by treating mass nouns as count nouns, frequent use of the “isnt it?” tag, use of more compounds, and a di
16、fferent use of prepositions. In Singapore, Chinese, Malay and Indian languages all influence the form of English spoken.

20、nguage. B If your family is like many in the United States, keeping a lot of bottled water at home, its easy to get a cold one right out of the fridge on your way to a soccer game or activity, right? But all those plastic bottles use a lot of fossil fuels and pollute the environment. In fact, Americ
21、ans buy more bottled water than any other nation in the world, and add 29 billion water bottles a year to the problem. In order to make all these bottles, manufacturers use 17 million barrels of crude oil (原油). Thats enough oil to keep a million cars going for twelve months. So why dont more people
22、drink water straight from the kitchen faucet? Some people drink bottled water because they think it is better for them than water out of the tap, but thats not true. In the US, local governments make sure water from the faucet is safe. People love the convenience of bottled water. But maybe if they
23、realized the problems it causes, they would try drinking from a glass at home or carrying water in a refillable steel container instead of plastic. Unfortunately, for every six water bottles we use, only one makes it to the recycling bin. The rest are sent to landfills. Or, even worse, they end up a
24、s trash on the land and in rivers, lakes and the ocean. Plastic bottles take many hundreds of years to break down. Water is good for you, so keep drinking it. But think about how often you use water bottles, and see if you can make a change. And yes, you can make a difference. Remember this: recycli

29、those who stick with it and are lucky, they get into another world: a state of physical and mental grace reached when their blood is racing through every vein (血管). And in Austin, those who long to get better, even when they know its impossible, hang on Gilberts every word. Gilberts methods are simp

When they feel like theyre about to die, they look at Gilberts scars (伤疤) the burns along his right arm, and then to his right leg, where the flames ate down to the bone. Whatever they feel, how bad, really, co
31、uld it be? “He gets people to believe in themselves,” says Lisa Spenner, one of the fanatics, who are crazy about Gilbert. “He treats everyone like theyre amazing.” If Gilbert is their savior, they are his saviors too. “Eventually, I realized I had to help people. When I help people, I feel good,” h
32、e says. Gilberts right leg was so badly burnt that the knee was stuck at a 90-degree angle. The doctor said it would take six months to heal. Frustrated, Gilbert got on a bike. The biking led to walking, which finally led to running a year after he had been left to die. In truth, runners dont race o
33、ther runners. They race against themselves to conquer their wills. So Gilbert spent the spring and summer of 2007 trying to do that, racing men faster than he is, knowing it would make him better. Gilberts students, of course, keep rooting for him, though sometimes they wonder, “How much better can
