Dialogue: Interviewer: What were the things in Britain that you found most strange when you first arrived? Mathew: Well, the first thing is driving on the wrong side of the road..., that would be the- that was very strange because you have this automatic reflex when you go out into the street to look one way and a couple of times I did that and I almost got hit by cars and bikes and all, you know. It's dangerous. It really is dangerous. And you have to teach yourself to look the other way. Interviewer: Someone said that Britain and the United States are divided by a common language. Have you had any difficulties with the language here? Mathew: Oh, yeah-tremendous amount of difficulty but I'm starting to pick it up now-all the lingo and slang and all those-but there's definitely a difference. Interviewer: Can you give me any example? Mathew: Well, the big-I'd say some of the biggest ones would be the word "queue" which means in America "line". I never heard the word "queue" before. Um-what you call "chips", I call "French fries". I never heard them called "chips". Urn-there's so many-urn-words that are different. Ah-" crisps" which mean " potato chips" Yeah, that's - we call them "potato chips" or "chips" in America. You call them "crisps" here. So when I heard the word "chips", I was thinking of "crisps" and not French fry-you know-it's very confusing but-urn-but just some of the expressions like-er-" mate" you know and "love". Those-you know--they're funny. You don't hear them. You don't hear them in America. Interviewer: What about with young people-with people your own age-I mean, do you notice differences there? Mathew: I do notice some differences-er-I think-ah-I think the younger people in Britain are-they seem to be-much more radical than the younger people in the United States. I noticed that. Ah-the dress is different. You see a lot of-I see a lot of males here with earring in one of their-in one of their ears. You don't see that in America that much. Somet-maybe here and there, but not, not like you... Question: Which of the following statements is NOT true? - The Americans use "line" for which the British people use "queue". - The Americans use "French fries" for which the British people use "chips". - The Americans use "crisps" for which the British people use "chips".

Question: Dialogue: W: Do you have somewhere to stay in London, Peter? M: No, I don't. In fact, I was about to ask you if you could arrange some place for me to stay. W: Yes, that's no problem though I am not in charge of it. I'll ask someone to arrange it for you. What kind of place were you considering?

Hopefully, I can live with a lady who has retired. W: OK, that's no problem. But I must warn you that living with a family in London is very expensive. Much more expensive than other small cities.
