16、merican English changed between the 1930s and the 2000s. Take spelling, for example towards the 1960s it looked like the UK was going in the direction of not using the “u” in “colour” and writing “centre” as “center”. But since then, the British have become more confident in some of their own spelli
17、ngs. In the 2000s, the UK used an American spelling choice about 11% of the time while Americans use a British one about 10% of the time. There is also no need to worry too much about American words, such as 14 vacation5J ,“liquor” and “lawmaker” entering British English. There are a few examples of
18、 this kind of vocabulary change but they are mostly uncommon words and are not likely to change British English too much. The British are still using “mum” rather than “mom” and “petrol” rather than “gas”.But when we start thinking of language more in terms of style than vocabulary or spelling, a di

20、 effect of turning the two words “do not” into the single “dont”“The hand of the king” becomes the shorter “The kings hand”. However, in all these ways Brits are changing too and in the same way as Americans. Theyre just about 30 years behind the trend that Americans seem to be leading.So this raise
21、s a question, is British English actively following American English or is this something that is simply a natural trend in language use? Perhaps the British would have gone in that direction even if America had never been discovered? Id like to agree with the second idea but because of the fact tha
22、t British people learn plenty of American language through different ways, I think the first is more correct.28.What did the British do in the 1960s?A. They used some American spellings.B.

27、tory of a small but successful company, Hubdean.Hubdeans achievement is a series of special paints which are graffiti-resistant. How do they work? It couldnt be simpler. Take any graffiti-covered surface. First, a treatment called Agproclear is used. Then, using a very hot pressure jet (压力喷嘴),this t
28、reatment is taken away and the graffiti disappears at the same time. Now you have a clean wall. But before this clean wall can be painted on by graffiti lovers, a new product, Agproshield, is used. This paint has a special surface which gives it two important advantages. Firstly, spray paint (喷雾颜料)w
29、ont stick to the surface very well, and secondly, the whole surface can be cleaned very easily, just using water. Once the surface is painted,no specialist equipment is needed to keep the area clean and graffiti-free.Not surprisingly,Hubdean s products are used by both local governments and private
30、companies all over the UK, and now orders are being received from around the world. This brings the company a problem, however. Can they increase production to satisfy the needs?
