Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of 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 off 1066. Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England and had not expanded even as far as Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. However, during the course of the next two century, 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.
Currently, about 80 percent of the information stored on computer systems worldwide is in English. Two thirds of the world's science writing is in English, and English is the main language of technology, advertising, media, international airport, and air traffic controllers. Today there are more than 700 million English users in the world, and over half of these are non-native speakers, constituting the largest number of non-native users than any other language in the world.
Approximately when did English begin to be used beyond England?

Khoảng thời gian nào tiếng Anh bắt đầu được sử dụng vượt ra ngoài nước Anh?
A. năm 1066

C. trước 1600
D. sau 1600
Dẫn chứng: Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England and had not expanded even as far as Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. However, during the course of the next two century, English began to spread around the globe as a result of exploration, trade (including slave trade), colonization, and missionary work.
Tạm dịch: Cho đến những năm 1600, phần lớn tiếng Anh chỉ được nói ở Anh và không được mở rộng cho đến tận xứ Wales, Scotland hay Ireland. Tuy nhiên, trong suốt hai thế kỷ tiếp theo, tiếng Anh bắt đầu lan rộng trên toàn cầu do kết quả của việc thăm dò, buôn bán (bao gồm buôn bán nô lệ), thuộc địa và công việc truyền giáo.
