What different eletrical tree-prong plug and two-prong-plug?
The difference is safety.

How do you plug in nema 6-20 into a North American 3 prong outlet?
The 6-20 is a designation for a 20 amp circuit. Most homes have receptacles rated for 15 amps. The cord is designed so that you cannot plug it into a 3 prong 15 amp outlet for safety purposes. The wire, fuse or circuit breaker as well as the receptacle must be properly rated so you don't burn your house down. Proper inspection and possible rewiring to the power panel is needed to operate it safely.
What year did refrigerators change to three prong plugs?
That is one simple question that can't have any simple answers! For a start, do you mean "the history of electrical outlet changes" just for one country (such as USA or England, or Australia, or ...) or do you mean worldwide? One way for you to get some answers to this question would be to go to a science museum and ask if there is a section dealing with the history and development of electricity supply systems. Or you could go to your local library and ask one of the staff there to suggest some books for you to read that cover this subject!

Why would 3 prong plugs not fit into 3 prong outlets. This is a new home. All outlets only work on 2 prong plugs.?
This is very strange indeed. All modern houses in USA would have 3-prong outlets. I can't see how it could pass an electrical inspection. Check with the local agency who does inspections. Check your electric panel and look for an inspection sticker. I have encountered receptacles that are very hard to use because one or more of the pin slots (I don't know what else to call them) are way too tight. There is no easy remedy for this problem except to press hard to get the plug into the receptacle or replace the receptacle with one of a better quality. There are also child protective receptacles that require that two or three of the pins be pressed in at the same time or none of them will go. If the plug is just slightly off true it won't go.

Why don't electrical cords have only one prong?
Because there is no path for the electricity to return with only one prong. Electricity needs a complete path to flow through. If you were to grab a hot prong and the electrical source then that would work, but I don't recommend it.
