10、d, we still dont know how they were built or how the Egyptians got them so precise (精確的). They are truly a wonder of human engineering.

But do you know what a “posh” (優(yōu)雅的) British accent is? The difference may be more important than you think

16、. There are many different accents in the UK, some of them very difficult for foreigners to understand. In the south, many people speak with what is known as a “posh” accent, an accent that makes people think of the British Royal (王室) Family and upper-class people in the UK. In this accent, “grass”

17、sounds more like “gr-ar-ss”, and “bath” sounds more like “barth”. Often, British people who take jobs on TV or elsewhere have to change their own accents and make them “posher” to be accepted.So, do accents still matter? Last year Alexander Baratta, PhD, from the UKs University of Manchester spoke a

18、bout “accentism”people being treated worse because of how they speakand compared it to racism (種族歧視), according to The Guardian(衛(wèi)報).
