Once a New Zeala ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd teacher asked where I live. “In the white building,”I answered.
“At our university b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oth girls and boys live in the same dormitory.”I added.
Beyond my expectati ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on(出乎意料), however, my attempt(努力)to show I am speaking American English(AE) turned out to be something else. The New Zealander seemed very puzzled(迷惑)at my answer.
With a half smile, she asked, “Really?Do they live in the same room ”
“Oh, no. They li ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ve in different rooms but in the same building.”I reacted(反应)quickly.

The New Zealander m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )isunderstood me because she spoke New Zealander English(NE), which, as we know, is much related to BE.
Nowadays, not a f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ew English learners, who try to catch up with the fashion(时髦), choose to speak AE.
Yet, the problem i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s that they cannot speak pure AE, but half AE and half BE instead.
I think it necessar ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y to keep one style in order to avoid(避免)misunderstanding.
