People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. Popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many peoples diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not true. Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.Today, we know that the little iron in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is. However, spinach does have something else which the body needsfolic acid.It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.36. A good title for this reading passage is_.A. Popeye the SailorB. The Truth About SpinachC.A Mistake with NumbersD.

But they dont come out because of what your friends say or because you think that only a few people can be creative geniuses (天才). And, you, of course, think that you couldnt be one of them. But actually, this is not true at all. Anyone who is a creative genius will tell you that creativity is very much like a muscle that needs to be developed. If you dont learn how to develop creative thinking, this skill, just like a muscle, will become poor and useless. On the other hand, keep working at it, and this skill will soon be ready for action whenever you need it. So how do you develop your own personal style of creative thinking? You should realize that your brain has a greater capacity (容量) and a higher speed than the worlds biggest and fastest computer. So its important to get as much information as you can every day. Read, watch and listen to everything around you good and bad. The more you know, the more youll want to know, and the more your brain will be exercised. Try something new every day and let your experiences show you more about the world and people around you. You need to step out of your comfort zone (舒适地带) more and more each day. Follow these suggestions, and begin thinking beyond your limits from today. Youll soon have a life full of interesting and exciting adventures. Who knows, your idea might be the next great idea to change the world.43.
