问题
Early in the seventeenth century English settlers brought the English language within the borders of the present United States. In using the language in this new environment they began immediately and necessarily to modify it. As time passed more colonists came and the settled areas along the Atlantic coast became larger. Modifications in the English brought from the homeland multiplied. For a long time neither the users of this changed form of English nor those who remained in England paid particular attention to what was happening to the language here. Those in England who first noticed the changes viewed the matter with easy tolerance. But in time, because of circumstances unnecessary to detail here, this attitude changed to one of alarm and criticism. Those in this country of sufficient education and culture to know or care about this linguistic matter were divided in their thinking. Some were disposed to agree with their overseas critics and to counsel stricter adherence to orthodox use of the language; others were of a decidedly contrary view.
选项
答案
解析
17世纪初,英国移民将英语带入今天的美利坚合众国境内。在新环境中使用英语时,他们不得不立刻开始改变这种语言。随着时光的流逝,越来越多的殖民者来到这里,沿大西洋海岸建立起来的移民区逐渐扩大。从英国带来的英语在这里发生了很大的变化。然而,在相当长的一段时间里,无论是使用这种变化了的英语的人,还是留在英国本土的人,对英语在这块新大陆上正在发生的变化都没有给予特别的注意。在英国,最早注意到这种变化的人对这一现象采取了一种较为宽容的态度。但是经过一段时间以后,由于一些无须在此详述的情况,人们开始对这种变化感到恐慌,并采取批评的态度。在美国,受到良好教育、文化素质又高因而能了解或关注这种语言变化的人在观点上产生分歧:一些人愿意接受海外批评家的意见,主张更严格地遵循英语语言传统的用法;而另一些人则持完全相反的态度。
