|
1935 – Cat’s Eyes One foggy night,
Percy Shaw was driving on a dark winding road. His life was saved when a
cat’s eyes reflected his car’s lights, which stopped him from going off the
side of the hill. After his near-death experience, Percy Shaw decided to
create something similar to cats’ eyes by inventing a small device (made of
two marbles placed close together in a rubber case) which would reflect
oncoming car headlights to show the way ahead. Since their invention in 1935,
‘Cat’s Eyes’ have helped motorists to see where they are going and have
surely prevented countless accidents like the one which Percy Shaw avoided.
Shaw won an OBE in 1965 and died in September 1976. 1983 – Bagless vacuum cleaner In the
late 1970s, James Dyson designed a bagless vacuum cleaner which would not
lose suction as it picked up dirt. After five years, and over 5,000
prototypes, Dyson launched the ‘G-force’ cleaner in 1983. No manufacturer or
distributer would launch his product in the UK at that time, as they were
concerned about the impact it might have on the cleaner-bag market.
Consequently, Dyson launched it in Japan, where it won the 1991 International
Design Fair prize and sold for £2,000. Later, in 1993, Dyson set up his own
manufacturing company in Wiltshire, England. Since then, the Dyson vacuum
cleaner has become one of the most popular brands in the UK and, in 2005, it
was the market leader in the US by value. In 1997, Dyson was awarded the
Prince Phillip Designers Prize and in 2005 he was elected as a Fellow at The
Royal Academy of Engineering. 1993 – Wind-up radio Trevor Bayliss
is another famous British inventor, whose personal focus is on using
technology in innovative ways to deal with social problems. He invented the
wind-up radio to allow people living in remote areas to stay in touch with
the world. In 1989, he watched a TV programme about the spread of AIDS in
Africa and felt that one way spread of the disease could be minimised would
be by educating people through radio broadcasts. Despite early rejection from
everyone he approached, the turning point came when Bayliss’ wind-up radio
was featured on a TV programme, creating interest from a number of investors.
This enabled Bayliss to form his own company, and since then, Bayliss has
received countless awards, met the Queen and Nelson Mandela and travelled to
Africa to produce a documentary about his life. Furthermore, Bayliss has
updated the radio to include a solar panel so that it runs in sunshine
without winding. In June 2005, Bayliss received an honorary doctorate from
Leeds Metropolitan University and he now runs a company dedicated to helping
inventors develop and sell their ideas. http://www.innovationuk.org/news/innovation-uk-vol5-2/0168-great-britishinventions.html |
STEP 7:
Grammar focusà The Present Perfect Tense and the Simple Past
Tense.
We use the Present
Perfect Tense to connect the past with the present.
When we connect the
present with a specific point of time in the past, we use the word since.
The form of the
present perfect is: Subject + have/ has + past participle (CHECK THE LIST OF IRREGULAR VERBS-THIRD
COLUMN à http://www.saberingles.com.ar/lists/irregular-verbs.html
)

When we are not
thinking about the past and present together, we don’t use the present perfect.
If we are only thinking about the past, we use the past simple tense.


STEP 8:
Grammar practice.
Complete the following
sentences taken from the text, using either the present perfect tense or the
past simple tense.
