Most of us enjoy eating potato chips. But do you know the invention of potato chips was actually an accident? In fact, scientists have created many inventions by accident. Let’s take a look at a few of them.
Penicillin (盘尼西林)
In 1928, the British scientist Alexander Fleming went on vacation. But he forgot to cover up some bacteria (细菌) before he left his lab. A few days later, he came back and he found there was some mold (霉菌) growing on the bacteria. The mold stopped the bacteria from growing. Fleming later found penicillin in the mold.
Potato chips
George Crum was a chef in New York. He invented potato chips in 1853. One day, a customer said that his French-fried potatoes were too soft and oily. Crum thought the customer was rude and wanted to teach him a lesson. He cut the potatoes into very thin slices and fried them until they were crispy and brown. Surprisingly, the customer loved them.
Microwave oven (微波炉)
One day in 1946, the US engineer Percy L. Spencer was working on radar tubes (雷达管). He noticed that a chocolate bar in his pocket melted (融化) while he was working. He found out that the microwaves from the tubes melted it. The engineer started to work out how to cook with microwaves. In 1947, the first microwave oven was born.
21. Fleming invented penicillin after he found mold stopped bacteria from growing.

23. Potato chips were invented earlier than Penicillin.
24. We can know that the first microwave oven was born in 1946.

When Lu made tea with this spring water, he found the tea tasted better than usual. From then on, he realized the importance of water quality in making tea.
In 752 AD, Lu Yu finished his studies and returned to Jingling, where he met Cui Guofu. Both men shared the same interest in tea, literature (文学) and poetry. They soon became good friends. Since then, the two spent much time travelling, drinking tea and writing poems together.

①The Chongyang Festival falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month. So it is also called the Double Ninth Festival. To celebrate the day, people usually climb mountains and enjoy chrysanthemum (菊花), so the festival is also known as the Height Ascending (登高) Festival or the Chrysanthemum Festival. Nine (jiu) has the similar pronunciation with “forever” in Chinese. So the Chinese government set the day as the Seniors’ Day (老年人节) in 1989.
②During the Warring States Period (战国时期), there was the Chongyang Festival. But it was only celebrated in the imperial palace (皇宫). From the Han Dynasty, it began to be popular among the common people. During the Jin Dynasty, there were customs of enjoying chrysanthemum and drinking wines on the day. It was not officially (正式地) set as a festival until the Tang Dynasty. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, people in the imperial palace all ate flower cakes and climbed the mountain to celebrate it. Climbing the mountain has been a kind of custom since the Western Han Dynasty.
③Chrysanthemum means long life, so enjoying chrysanthemum and drinking chrysanthemum tea are also popular. Inserting (插) Zhuyu and sticking chrysanthemum are also traditions to avoid the bad as they have special smells which can repel (驱逐) insects and keep out the cold.
④Eating Chongyang cakes is another tradition on the festival. There is no fixed way of the cake. But the one with nine layers (层) with two sheep on it is the best. Two sheep mean Chongyang. Nine layers show people could do well in everything.
36. How many other names does the Chongyang Festival have?
A. One. B. Two. C. Four. D. Six.
37. When did the Chongyang Festival start to be popular among common people?
A. In the Tang Dynasty. B. From the Han Dynasty.
C. During the Warring States Period. D. During the Jin Dynasty.
38. What do two sheep on the Chongyang cake mean according to the text?
A. Chongyang. B. Long life.
C. Good luck in everything. D. Keeping out the cold.
39. What is the structure (篇章结构) of the text? (①=Paragraph 1, …)
A. B. C. D.
40. In which part of a newspaper can you probably read the text?
A. Food. B. Sports. C. Culture. D. Science.

Lu Yu often went to the countryside to gather tea leaves and herbs. On one of those trips, Lu Yu found a spring (泉). The water was quite clear and clean. When Lu made tea with this spring water, he found the tea tasted better than usual. From then on, he realized the importance of water quality in making tea.
In 752 AD, Lu Yu finished his studies and returned to Jingling, where he met Cui Guofu. Both men shared the same interest in tea, literature (文学) and poetry. They soon became good friends. Since then, the two spent much time travelling, drinking tea and writing poems together.

①The Chongyang Festival falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month. So it is also called the Double Ninth Festival. To celebrate the day, people usually climb mountains and enjoy chrysanthemum (菊花), so the festival is also known as the Height Ascending (登高) Festival or the Chrysanthemum Festival.

Climbing the mountain has been a kind of custom since the Western Han Dynasty.

When I was in Grade 7, I had difficulty in speaking English. No matter how hard I tried, I still couldn’t do it well. Then my best friend Lisa, who was good at spoken English, offered me help. Following her advice, I changed my learning methods. First, I asked my English teacher or other students for help after school. Second, I spent much time on the pronunciation of each word I had learned. Third, I kept on practising by repeating after the tape. Gradually, I could speak English better and talk with others more confidently. And I have formed a good study habit.
