English around the world
Just like many other languages, there are different varieties of English, and not everyone speaks
English in the same way.
The two most important varieties of English are British English and American English. They have
many small differences in grammar and vocabulary. For example, the British say “trousers” while
Americans usually say “pants”. However, the biggest difference is in pronunciation.

Have you heard of Paris Syndrome? Some tourists come to the city of Paris with a very romantic
idea about what the city will be like. They probably think about romantic meals by the river, or the
Eiffel Tower with the Sun setting behind it, or the world-famous museums. This idea may come
from films and paintings. Also, films especially have shown us that all people in Paris are
beautiful and wear fashionable clothes. But of course, popular art only shows us the best parts
about something and does not give us the complete truth. When some people find that real life in
Paris does not meet their expectations, they might get Paris Syndrome. Shocked that not everyone
is beautiful, and that not every part of Paris is as pleasant as it seems in the films people may feel
upset, or they soon become anxious and begin sweating.
Paris Syndrome is most common among tourists form Japan. Around one million Japanese tourists
visit Paris every year, and about twenty per cent of them will experience Syndrome. Doctors
believe this is because Japanese culture is so different from French culture and most Japanese do
not speak French. The Japanese do not often raise their voices in public. In Paris, however, a
waiter may shout at them for not understanding any French. The Japanese may also see dirty, busy
streets which were not part of their dream. These may be big enough reasons for them to want to
return home.
The Japanese embassy in Paris runs a 24-hour phone service for worried tourists. But the only
solution they can give is to leave and never return to Paris if you have a bad experience.
1. Why will tourists find real life in Paris different from that described in the films?
2. How do tourists fell when they have Paris Syndrome?
3. How many Japanese tourists experience Paris Syndrome every year?
