The others【C2】______to themselves as Welsh, Scottish, or Irish,【C3】______the case may be; they are often slightly annoyed【C4】______being classified as "English".
Even in England there are many【C5】______in regional character and speech. The chief【C6】______is between southern England and northern England. South of a【C7】______going from Bristol to London, people speak the type of English usually learnt by foreign students,【C8】______there are local variations.
Further north regional speech is usually " broader" than【C9】______of southern Britain. Northerners are【C10】______to claim that they work harder than Southerners, and are more【C11】______. They are open-hearted and hospitable; foreigners often find that they make friends with them【C12】______Northerners generally have hearty【C13】______: the visitor to Lancashire or Yorkshire, for instance, may look forward to receiving【C14】______helpings at meal times.
In accent and character the people of the Midlands【C15】______a gradual change from the southern to the northern type of Englishman.
In Scotland the sound【C16】______by the letter "R" is generally a strong sound, and "R" is often pronounced in words in which it would be【C17】______in southern English. The Scots are said to be a serious, cautious, thrifty people,【C18】______inventive and somewhat mystical.

【C20】
选项
A、with
B、of
C、among
D、against
答案
B
解析
“be of+名词”意为“具有……的”。如He is of importance to me.他对我具有重要性。本句意思是“他们具有与英格兰人完全不同的血统”。A项with意为“与……一起”;C项among意为“在……中间”;D项be against意为“违反,反对”,均不符合。所以B选项是正确答案。
