Let's look at two old but popular inventions we use in our daily life.
Band-Aids(創(chuàng)可貼)
The first Band-Aid was made by American Earle Dickson in 1921.The idea came to him by chance. Dickson's wife often cut her fingers in the kitchen. At that time gauze(紗布) and adhesive tape (膠帶)didn't come together. People had to cut them to the right size. Dickson found they were always too big and soon fell off. So he put a piece of gauze on the center of a piece of tape. This is how he made the first Band-Aid. Later,Dickson's new inventions became very popular all around the world.
Bubble gum(泡泡糖)
Bubble gum was invented by accident. In 1928,American gum company worker Walter E. Diemer played around with new chewing gum recipes(口香糖配方). Chewing gum had already been invented more than half a century before then. But Diemer found that the gum he made was easy to blow. He blew a bubble and then saw the possibilities. He took some of his new gum to a shop and it sold out in a single afternoon. Since then,Dubble Bubble—the first brand of bubble gum—has made kids happy all around the world.
(1)Dickson's wife often ________ in the kitchen.
A.hurt her fingers
B.made bubble gum
C.played with new recipes
(2)Before the Band-Aid was invented,________.
A.people had to cut the gauze and adhesive tape to the right size
B.people had to cover the cut with a piece of cloth
C.people had to be careful to cut the gauze quite big
(3)Bubble gum was invented by ________.
A.a doctor
B.a gum company worker
C.a housewife
(4)Bubble gum was invented around ________ years after chewing gum was invented.
A.30
B.50
C.80
(5)Diemer's bubble gum sold out during ________.
A.a day
B.a morning
C.an afternoon

【答案】
(1)A
(2)A
(3)B
(4)B
(5)C
【解析】本文介紹了日常生活中的兩項發(fā)明——創(chuàng)可貼和泡泡堂。第一個創(chuàng)可貼是在1921年由美國的Earle Dickson發(fā)明的。泡泡糖是于1928年由美國的一家口香糖公司的工人Walter E. Diemer 發(fā)明的。
(1)A推理判斷題。根據(jù)Dickson's wife often cut her fingers in the kitchen.可知Dickson的妻子在廚房里手受傷了,故選A。
(2)A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)At that time gauze(紗布) and adhesive tape (膠帶)didn't come together. People had to cut them to the right size.可知在創(chuàng)可貼被發(fā)明前,人們必須把紗布和膠帶剪成合適的尺寸,故選A。
(3)B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Bubble gum was invented by accident. In 1928,American gum company worker Walter E. Diemer played around with new chewing gum recipes(口香糖配方). 可知泡泡糖是由一個口香糖公司的工人發(fā)明的,故選B。
(4)B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Chewing gum had already been invented more than half a century before then. 可知口香糖比泡泡糖要早發(fā)明50多年,故選B。
(5)C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)He took some of his new gum to a shop and it sold out in a single afternoon.可知Diemer的新的口香糖在一下午就賣完了,故選C。
