Much has to be done for the producers before putting the products on the shelf.Color, for example, changes a lot according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packed in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colors.When some kind of medicine was brought out recently, researchers found that the color of the package(包装) caused the shoppers to lose interest because they made the product look ineffective(无效的). At last, it came on the market in dark blue and whiteblue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.The size of a package can also attract(吸引) a shopper, although quite often a bottle doesnt hold as much as it seems to.It is said that the better-known companies spend about 40 percent of the cost of the product itself on packaging!The most successful producers know that its not enough to have a good product. The head of Pears Soap, who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to sell their goods, came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap, but it takes a talent to sell it.”（1）Health foods are usually packed in colors Except _.A . greenB . blackC . yellowD . brown（2）Why did the shoppers lose interest in the medicine?A .

However, it has many differences. British, American, and South African English are all spoken differently. In many English language courses, the British and American differences are taught. One is not more correct than the other, but there are important differences between the two.Probably the biggest difference between American and British English is the vocabulary. Different words and expressions are used to talk about the same thing. For example, in the United States, people throw their garbage into the trash can. In England, people throw their rubbish into the dustbin. In Britain, people take a lift to the fifth floor. In America, people take an elevator.American and British grammar can be also different. For example, speakers of British English will ask What did you do at the weekend?, but Americans usually say on the weekend. In the United States people usually say Ive gotten a new car., but in the UK they will say Ive just got a new car.The pronunciation in American and British English is also different, even when the spelling is the same. The word tomatopronounced to-mah-to in British Englishis a classic example of this.Vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation are three ways English is different in different parts of the world. Learning all these is not easy, so English learners should just know that they are always there.DifferencesBr EAm EVocabularyThrow the rubbish into the dustbinTake a ( 2 ) to the fifth floorThrow the garbage into the ( 1 ) Take the elevatorGrammarAt the weekendIve just ( 4 ) a new car.
