Read the following passage and make the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to
Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of a few speakers to become the
dominant language of international communication. English as we know it today emerged around
1350, after having incorporated many elements of French that were introduced following the Norman
invasion of 1066. Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England and had not
extended even as far as Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. However, during the course of the next two
centuries, English began to spread around the globe as a result of exploration, trade (including slave
trade), colonization, and missionary work. Thus, small enclaves of English speakers became
established and grew in various parts of the world. As these communities proliferated, English
gradually became the primary language of international business, banking and diplomacy. Khi các
