Each year there is an increasing number of cars as millions of new cars are produced in America. Americans will not live without cars! However, some have realized the serious problem of air pollution by cars. It is necessary to find ways to solve the problem of air pollution.

One way to clean the air is to build a new kind of clean car. That’s what several of the large car factories are trying to do. But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.

Another way is to take the place of the car engine by something else. Engineers are now working on it. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model for us.

To prevent the world being polluted by cars, Americans have to make some changes in the way of their life. They have to cut down on the number of their cars and are encouraged to travel and go to work by bike. But this change does not come easily —many workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory closes down. And the problem of their pollution would become less important than that of unemployment.

Americans may live a happy but sad life for a long time because of the car problem.

Cars and pollution in America C. Both of them was.

One big difference between British and American English is in vocabulary. For example, the British use the word ‘autumn ’ while the Americans use the word ‘fall ’. In this case , the older word is ‘autumn ’. However, about four hundred years ago, the word ‘autumn ’ was replaced with ‘fall ’. Later, the British returned to ‘autumn ’, while the Americans still use ‘fall ’.

Of course, people from many different countries came to America and made their contributions to American English .Indeed, in American English there are words from every major tongue spoken on Earth. Many of these words are absent in British English.

Another big distinction between American and British English is spelling .After the Americans defeated the British in 1781 and gained independence, they wanted to make the spelling of English words simpler. Therefore, Americans write ‘color ’ instead of ‘colour ’.

Finally, the pronunciations and accents are different. Both countries have slowly changed the way they say the same words, but in different ways. This process is continuing even today.
