English is spoken by people in many places. It began in England but spread as the British people left their country and made new homes. Now, English is the language spoken by most people in countries like Canada, America and Australia.
譯文：很多地方的人們都說(shuō)英語(yǔ)。英語(yǔ)起源于英格蘭，但是英國人在其他地方定居時(shí)，傳播了英語(yǔ)�，F在，在加拿大、美國和澳大利亞這樣的國家，大多數人都說(shuō)英語(yǔ)。
After many years, the English language began to change. The changes were mainly expressions and spellings. Sometimes different people use different words to mean the same thing. People in England say "underground" while people in America say "subway". In America an elevator starts on the first floor, but in Britain it starts on the ground floor.
很多年后，英語(yǔ)開(kāi)始發(fā)生改變。發(fā)生變化的主要是表達和拼寫(xiě)。有時(shí)候，不同的人用不同的單詞來(lái)表達同一個(gè)意思。英國人用“underground”來(lái)表示地鐵，而美國人卻用“subway”。美國電梯的第一層叫“first floor”，而英國人則用“ground floor”。
"Colour" and "centre" are British spellings while "color" and "center" are American spellings for the same words. Pronunciation of words and ways of speaking have changed as well. It is possible to tell whether a person is American or British by listening to his or her speech.
同一個(gè)單詞，“colour（顏色）”和“centre（中心）”是英國人的拼寫(xiě)方法，而“color”和“center”是美國人的拼寫(xiě)方法。單詞的發(fā)音和說(shuō)話(huà)方式也發(fā)生了改變。聽(tīng)一個(gè)人說(shuō)話(huà)就可以判斷他/她是美國人還是英國人。
