The Most Useful Inventions
The Most Useful Invention of All Time Barbara－Saturday, April 13I’m writing a paper for my English class, and I need some ideas. What do you think is the most useful invention of all time Thanks for your thoughts.
RE: The Most Useful Invention of All Time Cindy Wu－Saturday, April 13There are many－the phone, the car, the bridges, but these are not my choices. For an everyday, useful invention, I vote() for the air conditioner. I live in Hong Kong, and during the summer, the temperature reaches 35 degrees Celsius or more. The heat is terrible! Without air conditioning, people here can not work or study. A lot of people might also get sick without cool air.
RE: The Most Useful Invention: The Internet!Jorge－Sunday, April 14The most useful invention of all time is the Internet . We can now communicate with people and do business faster. I own a clothing store in Mexico City. I also have a website. Now, people from all over the world can buy my clothing using my web site. I can keep in touch with friends and family in Mexico and around the world using e-mail. It’s faster than regular mail, and it’s cheaper than using the phone!
RE: The Most Useful Invention: Yes, but…Kazuo－Monday, April 15Jorge, I agree－the Internet is useful. But, in my opinion, there is an invention that is the most useful －electricity. Of course, this isn’t a man－made invention, but people like Benjamin Franklin and Alessandro Volta learned how to use it. Without electricity, many of the world’s most important inventions would not work.

Liang Huili is the leader of Huana International Volunteer Service Group，with hundreds of students, young professionals and business leaders. They held a basketball match to help 150 poor students in western China with school supplies(用品) and winter clothes. She also worked with an organization in the US to raise money for children with heart disease.
Born in Guangdong Province in 1942, Liang moved with her family to Taiwan at the age of seven. Liang taught at a primary school for seven years until her boyfriend went to America in 1969, one year after they got married.
“We didn’t have much money,” she says, “ so I started babysitting for other Chinese families and taking care of my own daughter at the same time.” She also taught children Chinese at Chinese schools. What’s more, she would help newly arrived Chinese families find apartments and work, and sometimes lend them money.
“I remember those students from China who first came in 1986. They didn’t have much money, and idea of what to do,” Liang told us. “ I then asked people in my neighborhood and my Chinese friends for donations(捐赠)－not only some money but also small electronic appliances needed for daily living.”
One of her experiences in Dayton, Ohio made her want to make volunteering a vocation(职业). She remembers how she once collected(接走) two Chinese professors who had missed their flight and had no one there to pick them up. A friend told Liang about it, and she went to meet them herself around midnight. She found the men feeling lost in that strange country, where no one spoke their language. They didn’t want to go to an American hotel, and didn’t know how they would get to Columbus the next day. “ So I talk to them and took them home with me,” she says, “ and today, I am still in touch with those two professors. We are good friends.”
45. Liang helped poor students in western China by______.

47. Her experience of_______ made her decided to make volunteering her vocation.

“Children need more geography field trips. Schools should organize geography field trips to stop pupils from sitting before computer screens for a long time. And children should be encouraged to see the natural world and study geography,” says Michael Palin.
The famous actor and writer, Michael Palin, made the comments days after a study showed that pupils in the UK were less likely to take part in science field trips than in most other developed countries.
The study found that 13% of schools in the UK failed to take children out of the classroom regularly.
Mr. Palin said that field trips were an important part of geography and that he was interested in geography because he had a good geography teacher and he had many opportunities to “get out of the school building”.
In an interview, Mr. Palin said, “It was important for children to see things for themselves and learn about the rest of the world. You have to show them a mountain, show them a factory, show them a power station.”
Mr. Palin had been to the North and South Poles, the Himalayas（喜马拉雅山脉）, the Sahara and Eastern Europe.
“Geography is about the study of the earth. It is a wide-ranging subject,” he said. “It’s related to everything we do: what we eat, what transport we take to work, where we live, what houses are made of, and so on.”
He said children needed to get basic geography knowledge first and that once they had the basic knowledge they could move on to deeper problems, such as population and pollution. “Today’s children will need to deal with a lot of problems when they grow up. They have to learn geography today,” he said.
49. The study showed that __________
A. about 10% of British schools didn’t organize field trips regularly
B. many British students were not interested in geography
C. some geography teachers didn’t do a good job
D. students who studied geography seldom went out of the school building
50.The underlined expression“ wide-ranging” means ________ in Chinese.
A. 理论性很强的 B. 有发展前途的 C. 覆盖面广的 D.跟旅游有关的
51. Mr. Palin _____________.
A. thinks that population and pollution are small problems
B. wanted to be a teacher when he was in middle school
C. has organized some field trips for school children
D. thinks that children should take part in geography field trips
52. From the passage, we can learn that Mr. Palin likes ___________
A. staying at home B. travelling C. using computers D. shopping
D
There’s no pizza on Mars, but scientists have found a solution to this problem for hungry astronauts: a pizza printer! NASA, the American space agency, has developed a machine that “prints” food. They showed a model of the printer in Austin, Texas last month.
How does it work Cartridges(墨盒) filled with powdered dough(面粉团), cheese, sauce, water and oil put the ingredients layer(层)by layer onto a printer bed. The printer bed, which gets hot from below, cooks the food as it’s being printed.
Since most of the ingredients are powdered, they can be sent into space and stored for many years without going bad. Water makes food go sour, so the food powders are mixed with water and oil only when they are being printed.
“Long-distance space travel requires more than 15 years of shelf life for food.” says Anjan Contractor, whose company developing the printer. “ We take water out, and in that form, food will last maybe 30 years.”
In outer space, there are far fewer choices for astronauts for dinner. Most of their foods—even things like beef or shrimp—are eaten from bags as powders（粉末）. Scientists hope the new food printer can be used to make more delicious food in outer space, keeping astronauts healthier and happier.
But the printer is not limited to use in outer space. Scientists think it could be useful on Earth, too. It could allow personal meals to be made at the dinner table, according to each person’s different needs.
“Let’s say someone is an athlete in the family, and he needs more protein(蛋白质),” says Anjan Contractor, founder of Systems and Materials Research Corp, the company developing the printer. “We can design recipes for him and print out more protein-nutritious food for him.”
53. In outer space, food can be stored for many years without going bad____.
A. when it’s mixed with water
B. when it’s mixed with oil
C. when it’s powdered
D. when it’s put in the fridge
54. Which of the following is TRUE ______
A. Astronauts eat beef powder in outer space.
B. A model of the food printer was shown in New York last month.
C. Only astronauts and athletes can eat the food from the printer.
D. The printer can only be used in outer space.
55. What is the best title for this passage _______
A. Astronauts’ Life in Outer Space
B. Hungry Just Print!
C. How to Make Pizza
D. Long Lasting Food

When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy holiday presents. 56 .
I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a hand basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter (交款处) and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. 57 .
Then a surprising thing happened. 58 . "You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you," said the woman. "It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me.

59 . That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us.

As life-saver Christopher Walsh rescued（营救） his brother and then his sister from the water of a canal（运河）, his mother shouted to him:” I’m proud of you.”
His mother Bery1 sat proudly and watched last night as Christopher was given the “Child of Courage award by his favourite TV star.
Christopher was in the car with his mother, father, sister Rosie, 10, and brother Mac, 7, when his father drove into a metal barrier.
The family’s car fell down a hill into the canal, and landed with its wheels up.
Christopher, then 12, swam through a broken window and got out into the fresh air. Then he saw the rest of his family were still in the car－in the water. He took a big breath and swam back to save first Mac, and then Rosie. Christopher, from England, said:“ I didn’t think about it and only knew I had to get them out. I was frightened, but it was all happening so fast, and I didn’t really think about the danger.”
Christopher freed Mac and then swam back to get non-swimmer Rosie, who was under the cold, cloudy water, in the car.
Christopher had to feel for her seatbelt（安全带） because he could not see anything. He took the seatbelt off her, then went up for air. Finally he went back to pull her out of the car.
Bery1 I said:“ When I got to the side and looked back, I thought Christopher and Rosie had gone. I thought they were dead. Then I saw him come up out of the water like a dolphin, and I could see he had Rosie. I shouted across the canal, ‘I’m so proud of you. ’”
Christopher’s father was badly hurt in the accident and was taken to a nearby hospital.

My role model Jack is kind and helpful.
At school, he studies so hard that he often gets good grades in exams. However, I am not good at studying, so he not only helps me with my homework about every subject but also tells me to work hard in order that I can catch up with others as soon as possible. With his help, I have made great progress in my study and I thank him very much.
I think I’m lucky to have Jack as an example. From now on, I’ll never give up and try my best to study better and better. I hope I can do as well as Jack and be respected by others.

We can see famous people on TV programs, in newspapers, books and many other places in our daily life. They usually have strong influence on our social life. Some people may not have noticed it, but, in fact, they can influence people in many different ways.
Famous people can lead the trend in fashion. When someone sees a famous person’s way of dressing, he or she may want to try it, and then decide to buy that kind of clothes.
Since some people look on famous people as their role models, they may want to do the same as their role models do. For example, if their role models love something or hate something, these people may think the same thing. If their role models always talk about losing weight, they may also want to do the same, without thinking whether they need it or not.
It seems that famous people have the ability to awaken people to care about the environment. Many famous people are interested in the activities that call on people to protect the environment. Their opinions on this topic can help people realize the importance of protecting the earth.
