Ancient Chinese Inventions
[1]The ancient Chinese are associated with① many important inventions， some of which have changed the world， and many of which， we still use today.
Paper making
The ancient Chinese invented and were using paper about 2，000 years ago.Early paper in China was made from bamboo.The plant was put in water and then beaten to a pulp （纸浆）.This pulp was then dried② into fine sheets.Because of the invention of paper， the Chinese were one of the first nations to start producing historical records， maps and literature.
Printing
A Chinese craftsman③ called Bi Sheng invented the printing press in 1045 CE.Early printing presses were made by carving④ wooden blocks with characters⑤.The blocks were then arranged to form the words on a page. [2]This invention made it much quicker and easier to reproduce written work and led to the first ever mass production of books and literature. Because books became more widely available to⑥ the public， general literacy （读写能力） in China was a lot better than anywhere else in the world.
Gunpowder
Gunpowder was invented by the Chinese in the eighth century CE.Early Chinese scientists discovered how they could make something explode⑦.Gunpowder was used in wars and led to the development of many different kinds of weapons⑧.For example， rockets⑨ carrying gunpowder could be launched⑩ at enemy soldiers from a bamboo tube.
The Compass
The ancient Chinese noticed that certain kinds of metals usually lined up in a north to south position. By the third century， they had started making the first， simple compasses by floating small pins of magnetic （有磁性的） metal in bowls of water.By the eleventh century， the Chinese were using highly developed compasses to navigate （导航） their ships at sea.In the West magnetism was not discovered until the fifteenth century.Until this time， European sailors were still navigating by the stars.

The New Age of Invention
Interviewer: Good evening, and welcome to Between the Pages. This evening, [1]I'll be talking to Dr Richard Fairhurst, whose new book The New Age of Invention has just been published. Welcome, Richard!
Richard: Thank you. [2]It's a pleasure to be here.
[1]此处“I'll be talking to Dr Richard Fairhurst”是将来进行时，表示将来某时正在进行的或持续的动作；“whose...published”是whose引导的非限制性定语从句，whose在从句中作定语。
[2]此处it在句中是形式主语，不定式短语to be here是真正的主语。
Interviewer: I guess [3]you have been asked about the title of your book before. It suggests [4]that the present day is a new age for inventions①， but many people might think that the great age of invention is over②.
[3]此处从句的谓语部分使用了现在完成时的被动语态。
[4]此处是that引导的宾语从句，suggest意为“表明”，故从句用的是陈述语气。
Richard：Well, that's an interesting point. [5]There have been golden ages③ of invention throughout history④. Think of the four great inventions in Ancient China: gunpowder, papermaking, printing and the compass. These things changed the world forever. Then there were the great Western inventions: the steam engine⑤， the telephone and the radio. And now, we find ourselves in the great new age of technology.
[5]本句是there be句型的现在完成时态。
Interviewer: So are most of the new great inventions tech based⑥？
Richard: A lot, yes. For example, advances⑦ in virtual reality⑧ and wearable tech⑨， as well as the flexible⑩ battery ， mean we should soon be seeing further developments. In addition ， important advances have been made in medicine and environmental science thanks to increasing computer power.
Interviewer: Can you give us some examples
Richard: Sure. New inventions like 3D printers have been used to make replacement hearts and bone parts . In terms of the environment, it is now possible to create an intelligent walking house. It is capable of using GPS technology to travel to different places, [6]with computing technology controlling its “legs”. What's more, huge advances in solar technology mean it can be eco friendly , too.
[6]此处是“with＋宾语＋宾补”结构，computing technology与control之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词短语作宾补。
Interviewer: Impressive stuff ! I've also been told that you're an inventor yourself. Is that correct
Richard: Yes, I am, but I'm only one member of a big team—most inventors now work as part of big international teams.
Interviewer: I see. [7]So what is it that inspires us to invent things
[7]本句是强调句型的特殊疑问句。
Richard: Most inventions start with recognising a problem that needs a solution. This was no doubt the reason behind the invention of the wheel in ancient times, [8]which much later developed into the car. Now, reduced energy supplies and environmental pollution have led to more advances in the technology of new energy vehicles . But [9]what remains important is that we have an incredible desire to think and create, and that's the real spirit of invention.
[8]此处是which引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the wheel, which在从句中作主语。
[9]此处是what引导的主语从句，what在从句中作主语；“that we have...create”是that引导的表语从句。
Interviewer: One last question. This is the one everyone really wants to know: will anybody ever invent a time machine
Richard: [10]I think you've been watching too many movies! Nothing like this has been invented yet and I'd say we're a long way from an invention like that at the moment ! But, [11]as they say, “Never say never ！”
[10]本句时态是现在完成进行时，表示从过去某时开始一直持续到现在的动作。
[11]此处是as引导的非限制性定语从句，as意为“正如，就像”。

发明的新时代
采访者：晚上好！欢迎来到《字里行间》节目。今晚，我将对话理查德·费尔赫斯特博士，他的新书《发明的新时代》刚刚出版。欢迎您，理查德博士！
理查德：谢谢。很高兴来到这里。
采访者：我猜之前已经有人跟您提过关于书名的问题了。这表明当今是一个发明的新时代，但许多人可能认为发明的伟大时代已经结束了。
理查德：嗯，这是一个有趣的观点。纵观历史，(我们)曾有过发明的黄金时代。想想中国古代的四大发明：火药、造纸术、印刷术和指南针，这些发明给世界带来了永久性的改变。后来，还有西方的伟大发明：蒸汽机、电话和收音机。现在，我们发现自己生活在伟大的技术新时代。
采访者：所以说，大部分新的伟大发明都是以科技为基础的吗？
理查德：是的，很多都是。比如说，虚拟现实、可穿戴技术以及柔性电池的发展意味着我们应该很快就能看到进一步的发展。除此之外，由于计算机功能不断提升，医学和环境科学也取得了重要进展。
采访者：您能给我们举一些例子吗？
理查德：当然可以。新的发明，如三维打印机已经用于制作心脏和骨头的替代品。从环境方面来讲，构建移动智能房屋已不再是空想。利用计算技术控制它的“腿”，它就能够运用GPS技术前往不同的地方。此外，太阳能技术的巨大进步也使房屋注重环保。
采访者：真是太让人惊叹了！也有人告诉我，您是一位发明家，对吗？
理查德：对的，但我只是一个庞大团队中的一员，大多数发明家现在都是大型国际团队的一分子。
采访者：我明白了，到底是什么激励我们去发明呢？
理查德：大多数发明始于意识到一个需要找到解决方案的问题。这无疑是古代人们发明车轮的原因，后来由此发展成为汽车。现在，缩减的能源供应和环境污染促进了新能源汽车技术的更多进步。但重要的是，我们有一种强烈的欲望去思考和创造，那就是真正的发明精神。
采访者：最后一个问题。所有人都很想知道：会有人发明出时间机器吗？
理查德：我觉得你看了太多的电影了。这样的机器还没能发明出来，要我说，目前要发明出像时间机器这样的东西还有很长的路(要走)！不过，常言道：“别把话说得太绝对！”
