Passage B
Is America ruining English or giving it new life? Most of this old debate concerns words. Is elevator an improvement on lift? Why say transportation when transport will do? Sometimes it involves spelling, specifically the American reforms that made British centre into American center. Realistic change or dumbing down? And, of course, the quickest way to tell a Yank from a Brit is by pronunciation.
But the differences between British English (BE) and American English (AE) go beyond words, sounds and spelling to grammar itself. Here they can be not very obvious, but they are many: the index(索引) of the “Cambridge Grammar of the English Language” mentions regional differences in 95 places. Most people assume that any variations between the two countries result from American innovation(创新), to the horror of Britons. In reality, America has often been the conservative one, and Britain the innovator. When British speakers borrow American habits, they are sometimes unintentionally readopting an older version of their language.
Take the past participle of get, which in Britain is got and in America gotten. To some Britons, American gotten is a cute or annoying invention. In fact, it is the older form, which came from Old Norse. “Gotten” appears in a Bible translation of 1535: “Treasures that are badly gotten, profit nothing.” It was used for centuries before being combined with the past tense, got, in Britain. Not that America was entirely conservative; it has a got too. But Americans use it differently: “He's got a car” means he owns one, while “He's gotten a car” means he has acquired one.
Americans have indeed innovated extensively with English, as with other things. But language never sits still: the British variety itself went on changing after 1776, as all living languages must. Americans, for their part, eagerly import fashionable British slang(俚语). Instead of complaining about Americanisms, British observers could say thanks to the old colonies (殖民地) for keeping traditional English safe.

B. How America Saved Old-fashioned English.
C. How Britain Gave the English Language New Life.
D. The Development of English in Different Countries.
