　　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 them．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 America．But many English people call it a“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 close together．One 　　17　　 is the large amount of American speeches that British people hear daily in movies, on television, or 　　18　　 travelers．　　19　　 this, Americans seem to be influencing the British more or less．So some day, English may even be 　　20　　 on both sides of the Atlantic．

(15)	have sth．to do with是固定句式．
(16)	此句的主语是anything，所以要用单数．
(17)	thing情况、事实．
(18)	游客所讲的语言，所以用from．
(19)	从后半句可以看出，正是由于上句话中所提到的原因才得出结论：美语似乎也对英语产生了影响．
(20)	上文中谈到美语对英语也产生了影响，所以作者最后说“将来有一天大西洋两岸的英语可能会是一样了”．
