So the English language spoken in England was brought there. 20 the beginning, Americans spoke the same as they did those in England. But now people in those countries speak 21 from one another.
Sometimes, Americans spoke the same as they did before in England, but the English people changed their language. Sometimes, Americans spoke in a different way, while the people in England spoke the same as before. So the language changed 22 from one part of the world to another. The English language 23 a lot in the past few centuries. People who moved to English-speaking countries from other countries brought in 24 new words. For example, Americans borrowed “cent” from old French and “cookbook” from German. They also borrowed “tofu” and “kowtow” from 25 . That is another reason why English has changed. English sounds a little different in each country in which it is spoken. Because of time passing and many other reasons, the English language has changed and continues to change.

One day a snake was looking for food. She found a hole and went into it. “Hooray!” It was a house for mice. She said to herself happily. There, she saw some little babies of mice. “They are good dinner for me!”
She came to them and asked, “Where are your parents?” The babies answered, “They went out for food.” “Food? Good!” said the snake. “Come on and listen to me. I came here to see your parents and tell them not to steal the people’s grain any longer or I will kill you all.” The little mice worried about their own safety. “Don’t be afraid, my body is like the hole. It is a safe place. When I open my mouth, you can come into it one by one. Then we will wait for your parents coming back. Are you clear?” The little babies came into the snake from her mouth one by one.
A moment later, the mice’s parents came back with some grain. Just then they found a snake in their room. “Who are you? Why did you come into our house?” “Where are our babies?” asked the mice’s parents. The snake answered coolly, “I am a judge of the people. I knew you did a lot of bad deeds.
