People can get terrific discounts on all sorts of stuff－provided they’re over sixty-five. Everywhere we look there are age limits that define what people can and can’t do. But creativity has no boundaries, no limitations. Anyone can invent. And they do. Inventors are popping up at the youngest ages. Sitting in the car waiting for her mom to return from shopping, Becky decided she might as well try to finish her math homework. But it was growing dark and getting hard to see the paper. “I didn’t have a flashlight, and I didn’t want to open the car door because then the whole car would light up.” recalled Becky. “So I thought it would be neat to have my paper light up somehow, and that’s when the idea came to me.” It isn’t every day that a ten-year-old invents a product eagerly sought by several businesses, but that’s exactly what Becky Schroeder did when she created a tool that enabled people to write in the dark. Her invention? The Glo-sheet. That night Becky went home, trying to imagine different ways of making her paper glow in the dark. She remembered all sorts of glow-in-the-dark toys－like balls and Frisbees－and wondered how they were made. She was determined to find a solution. So they very next day, Beck’s dad took her on an outing to the hardware store. They returned with a pail (桶) of phosphorescent paint. She took the paint and stacks of paper into the darkest room in the house－the bathroom. There, she experimented. “I’d turn on the light, turn it off, turn it on,” said Becky. “My parents remember me running out the room saying ‘It works, it works! I’m writing in the dark!’ ” She used an acrylic board and coated it with a specific amount of phosphorescent paint. She took a complicated idea and made it work rather simply. When the coated clipboard is exposed to light, it glows. The glowing board then illuminates or lights up the paper that has been placed on top. Two years after her initial inspiration, in 1974, Becky became the youngest female ever to receive a U.S. patent. She didn’t actively market her Glo-sheet. She didn’t need to. The New York Times wrote an article about an incredible invention－patented by a twelve-year-old, and the inquiries and orders streamed in. 21. From Paragraph 1 , we can draw a conclusion that _________. A. it is illegal for one to drive under sixteen B. people enjoy privileges when over sixty-five C. one is never too old or too young to invent D. people hate the limitations that define our behavior 22. What caused Becky to invent Glo-sheet? A. She was trying to do homework when it got dark. B. She was having trouble with math problems. C. She was trying to earn some money. D. She was working on a school project. 23. What is the meaning of the underlined words “phosphorescent paint” in paragraph 5? A. paint that acts as a glue B. paint that covers a mark C. paint that becomes hard D. paint that glows in the dark 24. What does it mean that Beck “didn’t actively market her Glo-sheet” according to paragraph 8? A. She kept the original one for her own use. B. Other people came to her for the Glo-sheet. C. Becky’s father tried to sell the Glo-sheet. D. She gave away patent to the government. 25. With which statement would Becky most likely agree? A. Experience is needed to be a good inventor. B. Only by inventing things can you know what people need. C. Always try to sell patent rights to large companies. D. You never know what you can do unless you try. B A recent study, published in last week’s Journal of the American Medical Association, offers a picture of how risky it is to get a lift from a teenage driver. Indeed, a 16-year-old driver with three or more passengers is three times as likely to have a fatal accident as a teenager driving alone. By contrast, the risk of death for drivers between 30 and 59 decreases with each additional passenger. The authors also found that the death rates for teenage drivers increased dramatically after 10 p.m., and especially after midnight. With passengers in the car, the driver was even more likely to die in a late-night accident. Robert Foss, a scientist at the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center, says the higher death rates for teenage drivers have less to do with “really stupid behavior” than with just a lack of driving experience. “The basic issue”, he says, “is that adults who are responsible for issuing licenses fail to recognize how complex and skilled task the driving is.” Both he and the author of the study believe that the way to mitigate (减轻) the problem is to have states institute so-called graduated licensing systems, in which getting a license is a multistage process. A graduated license requires that a teenager first prove himself capable of driving in the presence of an adult, followed by a period of driving with passenger restrictions, before graduating to full driving privileges. Graduated licensing systems have reduced teenage driver crashes, according to recent studies. About half of the states now have some sort of graduated licensing system in place, but only 10 of those states have restrictions on passengers. California is the strictest, with a novice (初学者) driver prohibited from carrying any passenger under 20 for the first six months. 26. Which of the following situations is most dangerous according to the passage? A. Adults giving a lift to teenagers on the highway after 10 p.m. B. A teenager driving after midnight with passengers in the car. C. Adults driving with three or more teenage passengers late at night. D. A teenager getting a lift from a stranger on the highway at midnight. 27. According to Robert Foss, the high death rate of teenage drivers is mainly due to _________. A. their lack of driving experience ???B. their frequent driving at night C. their improper way of driving ?? ?D. their driving with passengers 28. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 3? A. Teenagers should spend more time learning to drive. B. Driving is a skill too complicated for teenagers to learn. C. Restrictions should be imposed on teenagers applying to take driving lessons. D. The licensing authorities are partly responsible for teenagers' driving accidents. 29. A suggested measure to be taken to reduce teenagers' driving accidents is that _________. A. driving in the presence of an adult should be made a rule B. they should be prohibited from taking on passengers C.?the licensing system should be greatly improved D. they should not be allowed to drive after 10 p.m. 30. The present situation in about half of the states is that the graduated licensing system _______. A. is under discussion????? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
