Module 1　British and American English (限时：35分钟)(对应学生用书第345页)Ⅰ.阅读理解A (2017·贵州省普通高等学校招生适应性考试)　　When I was in college, ight think，“Scotland isnt so different from the US; they still speak English there！” But when I stepped off the plane, (声音粗哑的)lady at customs.“Youll be coming from America, ？” She asked me, r guys are leaving Glasgow for the States！” Her thick Scottish English and sense of humor were obvious right away.I was not in the US any more, earing—and even speaking—the Scottish English of my customs agent.In classroom discussions, people would say “em” when they couldnt think of what to say instead of “um”， which was great fun.After the first few weeks, I stopped chuckling about this.Strathclyde students stayed up late into the night, running around campus and shouting, “Go!
