People from Great Britain brought the English language to North America in the 16th and 17th centuries.And in the 1 300 years,there were 2 many changes in 3 places that now people can 4 tell an English person 5 an American in the way he or she talks.
Many old words 6 in England,but were kept in America.For example,300 years ago,people in Great Britain got their water from something they called either a “faucet”, a “spigot” or a “tap”.All these words are 7 heard in different parts of America,but only “tap” is still common in 8 .Americans often made up new words or changed old 9 .“Corn” is one kind of plant in America and 10 in England.Also,over the last three centuries the English language 11 thousands of new words for things that weren’t known 12 .And often,American and English people used two 13 names for one thing.A tin can is called “tin” for short in England,but a “can” in America.The word “radio” is 14 all over the world,including American.But many English people call it “wireless”.And almost anything having something to do 15 cars,railroads,etc. 16 different names in British and American English. But now American and British English may be growing closer together.One 17 is the large amount of American speech that British people hear daily in movies,on televisions,or 18 travellers. 19 this,Americans seem to be influencing (影响) the British more and more.So some day,English may even be 20 on both sides of the Atlantic.

【语篇解读】本文讲述的是英美语言的差异。
1.A
下文讲英语有了许多变化,应是在“随后的”300年。following随后的;接下来的。
2.C
此句含有so...that...结构,因名词前有many修饰,故用so,而不用such。
3.B
空后的名词places是复数,故排除A和C项。在此特指英美两国,填both具有特指意义。若填two则为泛指,须在two前加the才具有特指意义。故B项符合语境。
4.D
既然有那么大的变化,就很“容易”把英美人区别开来。
5.B
tell...from...意为“把……和……区别开来”。
6.A
后面说“但在美国保留下来了”,则前面应说“在英国消失了”。disappear消失。
7.D
后面说在“faucet,spigot,tap”这三个词中,只有tap一词在英国还用得普遍,则前面应说在美国各地“仍”能听到。
8.C
谈论的是英美两国,前面说的是美国,but后说的应是“英国”。
9.C
ones在此代替本句中的words。
10.A
本文讲的是英美语言的差异,因而同一单词在英美两国中所指的可能不同。
11.A
随着历史的前进,语言也向前发展,因此英语也增加了成千上万个新词。add意为“增加”;add up意为“把……加起来”,故选A。
12.B
before从前;以前。符合语境。
13.C
由接下来的例子可知此处选C。
14.D
句意:radio这个词在世界各地被使用,包括美国。
15.C
have something to do with...意为“与……有关”。
16.A
主语是anything,根据主谓一致的原则和上下文语意,选A。
17.A
由句意可知选A。
18.A
from“从”,符合语境。
19.D
because后跟句子,引导原因状语从句;
because of后跟名词或代词。
20.C
句意:将来有一天,大西洋两岸(指英美两国)甚至可能讲同一种英语。
