【文章大意】本文主要讲述了英语随着时间的推移而改变的原因。
1. 【解析】when。 考查状语从句。根据句子结构可知该填状语从句的从属连词, 再根据句意“那么, 为什么英语随着时间的推移而改变呢 实际上当文化与文化之间发生碰撞和交流时, 所有的语言都会变化和发展。”可知填时间状语从句的连词when“当……的时候”符合语境。故填when。
2. 【解析】spoken。考查非谓语动词。因为“______in England between about CE 450 and CE 1150 ”是修饰前面的名词English的, 作定语, 再因名词English和speak之间存在着被动关系, 即英语被说, 所以用过去分词短语作定语, 表被动。故填spoken。
3. 【解析】than。考查比较级。根据空前的“more”和句意“比起我们现在说的英语它更多的是以德语为基础的”可知填than。
4. 【解析】gradually。考查副词。因在句中作状语, 所以该用副词。故填gradually。
5. 【解析】became。考查时态。因本句because从句中用的是一般过去时, 可知是发生在过去, 所以用一般过去时。故填became。
6. 【解析】who。考查定语从句。因“________ruled England”是修饰前面的代词those(那些人)的, 所以是定语从句。因先行词those是指人的词, 关系词在定语从句中作主语。故填who。
7. 【解析】later。考查副词。根据空前的first, 可知后面该填later(后来)才符合上下文的逻辑关系。故填later。
8. 【解析】of。考查固定词组。make use of “利用”, 是固定搭配。故填of。
9. 【解析】settlers。考查名词。因作主语, 意为“殖民者”, 所以该用名词, 又因前面some可知是“一些殖民者”, 所以得用复数。故填settlers。
10. 【解析】were taken。考查被动语态。根据句意“后来在18世纪一些英国人也被带到澳大利亚”可知该用过去时的被动语态, 又因主语people是复数。故填were taken。
