很多學(xué)生都想知道美國英語(American English)和英國英語(British English)之間的差別,以及這些差別是怎樣產(chǎn)生的。請根據(jù)下面提供的材料,寫一篇文章。
1. 這不是一下子就能回答的問題。
2. 起初,美國和英國的語言是相同的。1776年,美國獨立,語言也開始有了變化。
3. 很長時間,美國的英語保持原樣,而英國的英語卻變化了。如:300年前,英國人用“fall”表示秋天,而今天大部分英國人都用“autumn”這個詞了。但美國人還在用“fall”這個詞。同樣,美國人用“I guess”(意思是I think),而這正是300年前英國的說法。
4. 當(dāng)然,這些都不是英語語言變化的終結(jié)。英國英語和美國英語在未來是否會繼續(xù)變化,這一問題是很容易回答的?梢钥隙ǖ氖,盡管兩者之間有一些差異,它們的變化過程都將會繼續(xù)。
注意:1.分段表達 2. 書寫整潔 3.字數(shù)150左右。

AMERICAN ENGLISH AND BRITISH ENGLISH
Many students want to know about the differences between American English and British English. How did these differences come about? There is no quick answer to this question. At first the language in Britain and America was the same. In 1776 America became an independent country. After that, the language slowly began to change.
For a long time the language in America stayed the same, while the language in England changed. For example, 300 years ago the English talked about "fall". Today, most British people talk about "autumn", but Americans still talk about "fall". In the same way Americans still use the expression "I guess" (meaning "I think"), just as the British did 300 years ago.
Of course, these are not the end of the changes in the English language. The question of whether British English and American English will keep on changing in the future is easy to answer. It is certain that this process will continue despite the distinctions between them.
