问题描述:

It may be common knowledge that (61)___British people call"football"is known as"soccer"in the US,and"colour"in British English goes (62)___ the"u"in American English.But according to an infographic (图表) (63)___ (make) recently by website Grammar Check,these are far from being the only (64)___ (different) between the two countries'use of English.

The infographic outlined 63of the main contrasts between British and American English,from the (65)___(much) well-known"lift/elevator"and"autumn/fall"to the less well-known"garden/yard"and"petrol/gasoline".

Some of the vocabulary mismatches are (66)___ different that two people in a conversation may fail to make (67)___ (they) understood.For example,the two countries have different names for certain food."Biscuits"and"sweets"in Britain (68)___ (know) as"cookies"and"candy",respectively,in the US.

But while (69)___(get) food names mixed up only causes confusion,some misunderstandings may even lead to (70)___ (embarrass) if you're not careful.If a British man in the US is asked to show up to a party in"pants",there's a chance that he might get a lot of stares from other guests.

舒伟仁回答:
  61.what;考查名词性从句,句意为"英国人称之为football的东西",故应该填指代物的连词what.   62.without;考查介词,根据常识,我们知道英式英语中的colour在美式英语中为color.故此处应该为"缺少",即gowithout.   63.made;考查过去分词,后文中有recentlyby,句意为"近期制作的图表".make与逻辑主语infographic为被动的关系,应为made.   64.differences;考查名词,本句意思为两个国家使用英语的区别,再根据thereare可知,应用名词的复数形式differences.   65.more;考查形容词比较级,从and引导的并列句"and"autumn/fall"tothelesswell-known"可知,此处应该填相应的比较级形式.   66.so;考查固定搭配,由后面的"differentthat",可知此处为表达"如此以致于"的固定搭配"so…that".   67.themselves;考查反身代词,根据语境可知,此处反身代词指代"twopeople",故用复数形式themselves.   68.areknown;考查动词的语态,此处为谓语动词,主语."Biscuits"and"sweets"应该是"被知晓",故用被动语态.   69.getting;考查动名词作主语,此处为while引导从句,意思为"尽管".从句缺少主语,因此用getting.   70.embarrassment;考查名词,在leadto这个短语中to是介词,后面用名词形式作宾语.
