33、 with Californian accents. Likewise, anyone who has ever watched BBC will know that their (48)_ have a wide range of accents, from (49)_ to Indian. Native English speakers are able to understand most regional accents (50)_ a large degree.    The main difference between American and Br

34、itish English has something to do (51)_ writing. It is in grammar, spelling and word usage (52)_ the two dialects differ the most. (53)_, when writing English, you should decide which one to use and try to use it as consistently as possible.    The greatest difference between American

35、 and British English (54)_ the choice of vocabulary. The same word can have (55)_ meanings. When Americans say that someone is mean they are expressing that that person is bad-humored. Whereas, in Britain, a mean person is someone who is not generous. There are many more examples and most dictionari

Scientists are interested in honeybees because of the “l(fā)anguage” they use to communicate with each other. Karl von Frisch,

62、 a professor from Austria, devoted many years of his life to researching the ways honey-bees communicate in their hives(蜂房). Karl von Frisch built special hives, a glass wall and painted some honey-bees with different colors.A marked bee which returned to the hive from the feeding table performed a

63、dance on the surface of the honeycomb(蜂巢). First it made a circle to the right, then to the left. It repeated these circles again and again. The surrounding bees copied its dances and then they left for the feeding place.Karl von Frisch set up two feeding places. One was close to the hive the other

64、was farther away. The bees that had been at the nearby feeding place were doing the circling dance. The bees at the distant feeding place were dancing differently. The dancer ran in a straight line, wagging(搖擺) from side to side. Then it turned in a semicircle(半圓), ran straight again, and turned in

65、another semicircle to the opposite side. It repeated the dance over and over. The dances convey messages about the far-away feeding place.
