FRANKLIN’S
EXPERIMENT:
How Much Is True
1.Benjamin Franklin’s famous experiment with lightning has introduced generations of children to science.However, new research suggests that the story may be fiction instead of fact.
2.The well-known story is that the American Founding Father and scientist flew a kite during a storm in 1752. At that time, there was much interest in electricity. People wanted to know if lightning was really produced by electricity or something else. Franklin was one of them. He raised the kite with a piece of string tied to it.

2.At that time在那时
3.be interested in... 对...感兴趣
A metal key was attached to the string. A flash of lightning hit the kite, and electricity was conducted through the string to the key. Franklin then touched the key with his finger and got an electric shock. This, he said, proved that lightning was a form of electricity.

3.a form of ...一种形式
3 For many years, schools have taught the story of Franklin’s lightning experiment. More than one generation of schoolchildren has been amazed by his bravery and his scientific approach to looking for the truth. Franklin, along with many other scientists, has inspired us and taught us that scientific experiments are important in order to establish the truth and to contribute towards later scientific discoveries and inventions.

Brainstorming:
What does the author think have more inspired people
A. The story of scientists' experiments.
B.The result of scientists' experiments.
C. The scientists' spirit of scientific exploration.
D. The fact of scientific exploration.
C
4. However, neither the story nor the details of the experiment are entirely true. Although it has been proved that Franklin’s experiment took place, more than one scientist has questioned what really happened. The detail about the string and the key is true. But scientists all agree that if Franklin had actually touched the key, he would certainly have died from the electric shock.
1.take place 发生
2.die from...死于...
C
Why do scientists question acceptedideas
A.To find what took place.
B. To prove what is true.
C.To establish the facts.
D. To inspire people to do scientific exploration.
5 Scientists often question accepted ideas because they want to establish the facts. Some have even questioned the story about the apple that fell on Newton’s head and led him to come upcertainly have died from the electric shock. with his theory of gravity. In fact, more than one account suggests that while Newton was certainly inspired by a falling apple, there is no proof that it hit him on the head.

D
What is the effect of the experiment
A. It has introduced generations of children to science.
B. It proved that lightning is a form of electricity.
C. It is important to establish the truth.
D. All of the above.
6 Admittedly, fiction is often more interesting
than the truth. People have been more inspired
by Franklin’s spirit of scientific exploration
than by the facts themselves. But in science,
facts should be proved by experiments and
research, and we should not always believe
everything we read or hear – even if it is a
great story.
