　　My First Days in New York

　　Sunday 2nd July

　　It’s amazing that I can stand on the New York City now．I can hardly believe my eyes even if I see the famous Statue of Liberty．I come from Perth, a quiet town in Scotland, and I haven’t seen much of the world．Luckily I can be one of the exchanged program students．We can stay here for 2 weeks．I am really excited about the following weeks．But before I came to New York, my instructor told me some differences between the English we and they speak．I am a little bit nervous．

　　Monday 3rd July

　　I’m really tired of the difference．I woke up at 2 o’clock and went out to have some food and sat at a table Oil the pavement－or sidewalk, as they call it here．I was happy to sit and watch people．Sometimes I can overhear some American accent．I entered a small coffee shop and ordered something to eat．But the problem is that I couldn’t understand the waitress’ New York accent and she couldn’t understand mine．Later, I got a hamburger with crisps but I wanted chips．Then I walked back to my hotel and went to my room, which I knew was on the first floor．But in America, they say first floor instead of ground floor so I went into the wrong room．I felt so embarrassed! That was the worst moment for me．I felt far away from home even though Americans and British speak the same language．I was like a foreigner．But the American woman who was in the room laughed and said she had had the same problem in England．

　　Sunday 16th July

　　How time flies! I still remember the first day I came to New York but now I must leave her．The embarrassment was gone when I got used to the life here．I met some many friends and took Dart in lots of activities．My American friends made a fuss of me(大惊小怪)and they said my accent was so cute．Yesterday we held a goodbye party in their International Student Center－that’s “centre” where I come from．I will miss you, New York．

Answer 1

答案：
解析：

参考范文： 　　In the diaries by a British girl, we can see she was puzzled and confused when she firstly came to New York．We also see some examples of how American English is used from British English．But luckily, she got a pretty good impression of New York when she came back to Britain． 　　Although American English and British English come from the same language, they are different while developing．The differences lie mainly in 2 parts．One is about words, including the spelling, pronunciation and the usage．The other is about the grammar items．Indeed, the differences add to the difficulty in understanding each other．However, this will not stop people from communicating with each other．People will be able to understand each other wherever they are．
