English is the first language of several countries．However，it has many differences．British，American，and south African English are all spoken differently．In many English Language courses，the British and American different are taught．One is not more correct than the other，but there are important differences between the two．
Probably the biggest difference between American and British English is the vocabulary．Different words and expressions are used to talk about the same thing．For example，in the United States，people
throw their garbage into the trash can．In England，people throw their rubbish into the dustbin．In Britian，people take a lift to the fifth floor．In America，people take an elevator．
American and British grammar can be also different．For example，speakers of British English will
ask，what did you do at the weekend，but Americans usually say"on the weekend"．In the United States
people usually say"I have gotten a new car．"，but in the UK，they will say"I have just got a new car．"
The pronunciation in American and British English is also different，and even when the spelling is the
same．The word"tomato"﹣﹣﹣pronounced"to﹣mah﹣to"in British English﹣﹣is a classic example of this．
Vocabulary，grammar and pronunciation are three ways English is different in different parts of the
world．Learning all this is not easy，so English learners should just know that they are always there．

Pablo and I were walking home from playing football．On the way，I told him that our school needed （61） football team．At once，Pablo suggested，"Why not run for（竞选）class pressident so that you can set one up？"
"Who would want（62） （I）？"I asked，surprised at the idea．
Pablo made a list of reasons：I was the（63） （good）student of all in sports and lessons；I was（64） （friend）to everybody．When I told him running for president would be much work，he（65） （promise）that he would help me．
I did run，and Pablo did help me．First，we made posters to hang in the hallway．Next，Pablo helped me（66） （write）a speech about why I'd make a good class president．
The big day came．I gave my speech in front of the whole grade，promissing my（67） （classmate）that if they chose me，I'd start a football team．
As Pablo and I nervously waited（68） the results，I was told that my speech was so successful（69） I was the right person to be class president．
Now we went（70） （happy）to Coach Simpason and asked how I could start our new football team．
