　　Ⅳ.课文语法填空

　　So why has English changed 1.over time? Actually all languages change and develop 2.when cultures meet and communicate with each other. At first the English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English 3.spoken (speak) today. It was based more 4.on German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually between about AD 800 and 1150，English became 5.less (little) like German because those 6.who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers enriched the English language and 7.especially (especial) its vocabulary. So by the 1600's Shakespeare was able to make use of a 8.wider (wide) vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British 9.settlers (settle) moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people 10.were_taken (take) to Australia too. English began to be spoken in both countries.
