KÌ THI TUYỂN SINH VÀO 10 ��Stay strong and keep going! HÀ NỘI ��Give it your best – success is within reach! English is a language spoken by millions of people all over the world, but it is spoken differently in each country. Two well-known types of English are Australian English and Canadian English. They are very similar to British English and American English, but with some special differences. For example, in Australian English, people often make words shorter. They say "arvo" instead of "afternoon" and "brekkie" instead of "breakfast." Canadian English is more like American English in the way people speak and the words they use. But one difference is how they spell words like "colour" and "favour." Canadians spell these words with "ou," like in British English, but Americans use just "o." The grammar is also a little different. Canadians sometimes use the British form of words like "learnt" instead of the American "learned." Australians often speak in a more relaxed way, leaving out some words when they speak casually. Even though there are differences, Australian and Canadian English are still easy to understand for people who speak other types of English. Question 31. What is the main idea of the passage? A.
