答案
参考答案：A
解析：
[分析]： 语义的理解和判断。 根据题干中关键词in the 20th century 可定位到原文But this only reflects the fact in the last century，i. e. 90％ of the world’s computers connected to the Internet are based in English speaking countries可知，上个世纪世界上90％与因特网连接的计算机都在讲英语的国家。根据上下文可知，句中的the last century即指题干中的the 20th century，而句中 90％与选项A中most意思相当，因此A项内容与原文相符，是正确答案。[解题关键] 能够根据上下文内在逻辑正确判断语义。
