　　A

　　Dear Sirs,

　　I am planning to attend a language course in order to improve my English. I would like to know whether to learn British or American English. Which is better? Must I have a British teacher if I wish to learn British English?

　　Yours truly,

　　Manuel Gonzales

　　Paris

　　The editor’s reply:

　　English is a global language with many varieties.American and British English are the two main varieties. Each has many accents:the English of a Bostonian,for example,sounds very different from that of a Texan.

　　The major differences between American and British English are essentially differences of accent,inflection(词尾变化),spelling and,above all,vocabulary.Variations in tense usage exist but are not a big problem for learners of English.Some people claim that British English is superior to American English but really it is a matter of one’s own preference and needs as to which variety is learnt.So,“useful” is probably a more appropriate word than “better”.

　　If you need to use English only with British people(for example,if you are going to live in the United Kingdom),then it will probably be a good idea to have at least one British teacher on your program.
