  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.
