【B1】______There are a few small differences in the grammar and there are a few words that are different on either side of Atlantic, but the big difference is the accent. Some British films have subtitles in America because people can’t understand what the actors are saying, and some American TV series are difficult for the British to understand.
【B2】______The problems are with the different kinds of American and British English. These different dialects and accents depend on people’s social class and the geographical area where they live. It is possible, for example, that a middle-class speaker from the south of England will find it difficult to understand a working-class speaker from the north. In the same way, a wealthy Califor-nian may not understand a working-class New Yorker. All of these people have accents, but the middle-class accents are usually closer to Standard English.
【B3】______What sort of English should they learn? Is American English better than British English, or the other way round? The answer depends on their reasons for learning English. If they are learning English for their work, the choice will probably be easy. But for many students, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that they understand and are understood.
【B4】______Most English that you hear and see around the world is spoken or written by non-native speakers—between, for example, a Greek and a German, or between a Russian and an Italian. English is the main language of business, academic conferences and tourism, of popular music , home computers and video games. English has become the Latin of the modern world.
【B5】______More and more people now talk about English as an International Language—a language that is not American or British. It has hundreds of different accents, but if people can understand what you are saying, no problem.

E
解析
文章倒数第二段说明了英语使用的广泛性——英语已成为“现代拉丁语”,在很多领域都是主要使用的语言,并且不仅限于英国和美国,也被很多非英语母语者使用。E项意为“世界在改变,英语不再是英国人、美国人或澳大利亚人的专利”,最符合题意。故选E。
