Фрагмент из книги.
If you've learned American English and you're traveling in Britain, or if you've learned British English and you're traveling in the US, you'll notice some differences. An obvious difference is the accent, but most travelers find that they don't have too many problems with this. There are some grammatical differences, but they shouldn't make it difficult to understand people, or to communicate. That leaves differences in vocabulary, which can cause misunderstandings. Sometimes the difference is only the spelling, for example, in American English center, color, and traveled, and in British English centre, colour, and travelled. But sometimes the word is completely different in American and British English, so it's a good idea to be prepared.




Let me sleep on it.
For many years, people have said that a good night's sleep often helps when you have to make an important decision. Research done recently by an American university has shown that this idea is actually true.

The researchers used a card game for their experiment, and 54 students between the ages of 18 and 23 took part. The scientists divided the participants into two groups. Both groups were given a short lesson on how to play the card game, either in the morning or in the evening. The lesson was very short—not long enough for either group to learn exactly how the card game worked. All of the students were asked to come back 12 hours later. The 28 students who had the class in the afternoon went home to a normal evening and their usual night of sleep, while the 26 who received the class in the morning came back after a day of normal activities without sleep.

On their second visit, the students played the game for long enough to learn that taking cards from the four different packs gave different results. Two of the packs had cards that helped players win more often while the other two packs had cards that made them lose.
