One day during our holiday in England，my friend and I went to the train station to buy the tickets to Dover．As native speakers of English，we did not expect to have problems in England．
“Two tickets to Dover，please．”I said to the ticket seller．
“Single？”the ticket seller asked me．
I thought that she was hard of hearing and I repeated my request a little louder．
“Two tickets to Dover！”I shouted．
At that moment a man saved us．He said that“a single ticket”in Great Britain does not mean“one ticket”，it means“a one-way ticket”．
My experience in England taught me that there are some differences between British and American English．British English，for example，does not use the sound[?r]．That is very common in American English．An English man may ask if you want white coffee or white tea．And an American asks if you want your coffee or tea with milk．We can find some differences such as the British saying“He is in hospital”，but the American saying“He is in the hospital”．
Americans write words like color without the“u”of the English colour．

Mr Robinson was driving to Oxford one cloudy day when he saw a man holding a sign(举着个牌子)above his head．It said CAMBRIDGE on it．Mr Robinson thought it foolish to take the hitchhikers(搭便车的旅行者)because he had read frightening stories of what some of them did to drivers，but he was a kind man，so he stopped and said，“You are on the wrong road for Cambridge．This road goes to Oxford．”
“Yes．I know．”answered the man with a smile as he got into Mr Robinson’s car．“That’s where I want to go．I only started to wait here a minute ago，and I knew someone would be likely to(很可能)stop to tell me I was on the wrong road．If I’d held up a sign with OXFORD on it，I might have to wait for an hour for someone to stop．”
