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.

选项
A、similarities
B、differences
C、certainties
D、features
答案
B
解析
第一段讲述英国人的不同区分,第三段通过broader,work harder等信息可判断是在描述英格兰本土的南北差异,进一步可确定第二段是由Even引导的承上启下的递进逻辑关系,所以,空白处应是“差异”相关的词。A项similarities意为“类似,相同点”;B项differences意为“差别,不同”,符合文意;C项certainties意为“确定性”;D项features意为“特点”。
