see…..?
a cash machine ( ATM in American English)
a cup of coffee
a zebra crossing
a driver
a chemist
a cyclist
a waiter
a pedestrian

30.

Mark Vanhoenacker, an American Journalist who lives in London, says the UK’s
not just OK. – it’s paradise. These are some of his reasons…..
Walking
Britain isn’t a good place for cyclists. But for pedestrian it is wonderful. When you
walk on a zebra crossing, all the drivers stop.
Drivers
The British drivers are very polite when they drive. They don’t hoot, and they are
patient with other drivers. They always say thank you when you let them pass

31.

Boots the Chemists
Chemists in the UK are wonderful, friendly shops and completely different from US
pharmacies. Boots sells everything you want , not just medicine, and the shop assistants
give you good advice
No ID Cards
Britain is one of the only places in the world where people don’t have ID cards. In the
US you need ID when you buy drink, go to a club, use a credit card, or take an intercity
train
Summers
I love summers! A good summer day in Britain is dry and warm , but not very hot
Starbucks
Starbucks isn’t British, of course, but I prefer the Starbucks in Britain. They are nice,
friendly places where people read the newspaper and drink good coffee. And the
waiters don’t write your name on the cups- I feel stupid in America when the waiter
call- Mark? , your tall cappuccino with extra chocolate

32.

Things I love about the US
Sarah Araf is British but she lives in Ohio, in the US. Here are some
things she loves about living there.

45.

1 _______________________________________________________
In the US, the customer is really important. When you walk into a store, the staff greet
you with a smile and ask "How are you?". The customer is always right too. If you have
a problem with something, you take it back and they solve the problem quickly. You
don’t need to complain. You don’t even need to have the receipt
2. ____________________________________________________
I love real American coffee shops. Not chains like Costa and Starbucks, but those oldfashioned places where the waitresses come to your table and call you ‘honey’ . You
pay a dollar for coffee, and you can drink as much as you like. You can stay as long as
you like. You can sit there all day and read a book for the price of a cup of coffee

46.

3. ___________________
Eating out here isn’t expensive as in the UK, so we go out quite a lot. People
are very friendly here too. When you go to a bar or a restaurant, you often
have a conversation with the people at the next table. It’s really nice
4. _______________________
Everyone is so optimistic here! They believe that everything is possible if you
work hard. If you say ‘ We can’t do that’ they say, ‘ Why not? ‘ !
