It is the nickname of the country.It is hard to believe that this nickname became known quite by accident and there was a man 75 Uncle Sam.However,not many people have ever heard of such a man.Not

7、 even most young Americans. The man was called Uncle Sam Wilson.He was born in Arlington,Massachusetts, September 13, 1776. At the age of 14 Sam joined the American Revolutionary War(美国革命）, and 76 in the army under George Washington until the end of the war.He then moved to Troy, New York states, an

Many people are afraid to eat it, because they think the bacteria(细菌) in it might make them sick. However

16、, a new study shows that sea bacteria are good for people. The study finds that a special enzyme(酶) from sea bacteria is helpful to humans. It helps people to get more energy from food.To peoples surprise, the enzyme is present only in the Japanese. The Japanese traditionally like to eat food rich i

17、n seaweed(海藻). And the seaweed is rich in this kind of enzyme.However, the enzyme isnt present in all the Japanese. During the study, just 5 out of 14 Japanese had the enzyme. All the Americans studied didnt have the enzyme.“The number is small,” said researcher Mirjam Czjzek. “But we can say that t

18、his enzyme is present only in the Japanese and not in the North Americans.”Then some people think that maybe other people are able to get the enzyme if they eat a lot of seaweed. The study suggests that they collect uncooked seaweed to make their sushi.Restaurant sushi is often cooked, which will de

19、stroy the enzyme. So, if you want to get that enzyme, you can travel to Japan to have a taste of the real sushi.1Sea bacteria are _ for people.AhelpfulBharmfulCimportantDnecessary2Why do the Japanese have the special enzyme?ABecause they eat a lot of seaweed.BBecause they were born with such an enzy

22、success? Well, good timing for a start. You can have a great idea which the public simply doesnt want . yet. The Italian Giovanni Caselli invented the first fax(传真)machine in the 1860s. Although the machine was excellent, his invention quickly died a commercial(商业的) death. It was not until the 1980s

23、 that the fax became very common in every office. too late for Giovanni Caselli. Money also helps. The Frenchman Denis Papin (1647-1712) had the idea for a steam engine (蒸汽机)almost a hundred years before the better-remembered Scotsman James Watt was even born. but he never had enough money to build

24、one. You also need to be patient (it took scientists nearly eighty years to develop a light bulb which actually worked). but not too patient. In the 1870s, Elisha Gray, a professional inventor from Chicago, developed plans for a telephone. Gray saw it as no more than “a beautiful toy”. However, when

25、 he finally sent details of his invention to the Patent Office(专利局) in February， 1876, it was too late. Almost the same invention had arrived two hours earlier. and the young man who sent it, Alexander Graham Bell, will always be remembered as the inventor of the telephone.Of course what you really

26、need is a great ideabut if you havent got one, a walk in the country and careful look at nature can help. The Swiss scientist, George de Mestral, had the idea for Velcro（魔术贴）when he found his clothes covered in sticky seed pods after a walk in the country. During a similar walk in the French country

27、side some 250 years earlier, Rene Antoine Ferchault de Reaumur had the idea that paper could be made from wood when he found an abandoned wasps nest（蜂巢）.You also need good commercial sense. Willy Higinbotham was a scientist doing nuclear（核能的） research in the Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton,

28、USAIn 1958, the public were invited to an exhibition in the Laboratory to see their work, but both parents and children were more interested in a tennis video game on the screen. Soon hundreds of people were ignoring the other exhibits to play the first ever computer gamemade from a simple laborator

29、y instrument called an “oscilloscope”. Higinbotham, however, never made money from his invention: he thought people were only interested in the game because the other exhibits were so boring!1How many factors do inventors need according to the passage?A3. B4. C5. D6.2The word “ignoring” in the last

30、paragraph probably means “_”.Ahaving no idea of Bdoing no good toCgetting no chance of Dpaying no attention to3What can you learn from the passage?AGiovanni Caselli invented the first fax machine in the 1980s.BDenis Papin afforded to build a steam engine a hundred years ago.CElisha Gray missed the c

55、cord with a time of 39.584 seconds. He also became the first Chinese man to take home an Olympic short-track gold medal.
