When it comes to the greatest inventions of the world, China’s name is sure to be mentioned several times.

There are hundreds of things which were invented by the Chinese.

Alcohol

Shocked? I was because when they said alcohol I thought about either the US or the UK. China had never

crossed my mind. In China, alcohol was made by two legendary persons named Yi Di and Du Kang who belonged

to the Xia Dynasty. This period was about 2000 BC - 1600 BC. Research says that in ancient China, beer with 4%

alcoholic content was widely consumed by people.

Tea

China is the proud inventor of tea which was first drunk by Shen Nong, a Chinese emperor around 2737 BC.

Tea production was rapidly developed, making tea a popular drink during the Tang and Song Dynasties.

The Mechanical Clock

Have you ever wondered what on earth we would be doing without any idea of time? A clock really is an

invention without which things were incomplete. The credit of making the first mechanical clock goes to ancient

China. The first mechanical clock was invented by Yi Xing in the Tang Dynasty. This was during 618 and 907.

Silk Fabric

Silk, the favorite fabric of many girls out there, is also a Chinese invention. Although we all know that silk is

made by silkworms, it was Chinese people who first invented a way to harvest the silk and then use it to make

clothes. The oldest silk which has been found so far is in Henan Province and dates back to 3630 BC.

I was born in the year 1630, in the city of York in the north of England. My father was German, but he came to

live and work in England. Soon after that, he married my mother, who was English. Her family name was

Robinson, so, when I was born, they called me Robinson, after her. My father did well in his business and I went to

a good school. He wanted me to get a good job and live a quiet, comfortable life. But I didn’t want that. I wanted

adventure and an exciting life.

“I want to be a sailor and go to sea,” I told my mother and father. They were very unhappy about this. “Please

don’t go,” my father said. “You won’t be happy, you know. Sailors have a difficult and dangerous life.” And

because I loved him, and he was unhappy, I tried to forget about the sea.

But I couldn’t forget, and about a year later, I saw a friend in town. His father had a ship, and my friend said to

me, “We’re sailing to London tomorrow. Why not come with us?” And so, on Septermber 1sth, 1651, I went to

Hull, and the next day we sailed for London.

But, a few days later, there was a strong wind. The sea was rough and dangerous, and the ship went up and

down, up and down. I was very ill, and very afraid. “Oh, I don’t want to die!” I cried, “I want to live! If I live, I’ll

go home and never go to sea again!”

7. How did the author feel actually while on the sea?

A. Relaxed. B. Annoyed. C. Frightened. D. Confused.

There is nothing more important than the safety of our children. Did you know that unintentional injury(意外

伤害) is the main cause of death in children under 14 years old and with a third of them happening in the home?

One of the top reasons a child under the age of three will visit an emergency room is because of household injuries

and sadly, 70% of children who die from unintentional injuries are under the age of four. Every room in the home

will have its own set of child safety problems. Two of the main danger zones are the kitchen and the bathroom.

Before I became a young mother, I crawled(爬) around the house on my hands and knees to see things from a

child’s perspective(视角). You would be amazed at what you can discover by doing something so simple. We didn’t

have toilet covers. A child is top heavy because their heads are bigger than their bodies and can easily fall into the

toilet.

You might be surprised with the number of children falling out of windows every year, especially during the

summer months. Something as simple as a child leaning against a window screen can result in a serious injury. The

best way to prevent this type of injury is by setting up a child safety window guard.

As parents, we do the best we can by providing as much protection as possible to make sure of the safety of

children. And as there are so many products(产品) out there to help us do this, there is nothing like good old-

fashioned supervision(监护). So, use common sense and products that help to keep your child safe, and you will

have provided a safe environment for your children.

8. What’s the main reason for death in children under 14 according to Paragraph 1?

A. Age problems. B. No sense of safety.

C. Danger areas. D. Unexpected injuries.

9. Why did the writer crawl around the house on hands and knees?

A. To cover the toilet slowly.

B. To protect her child carefully.

C. To look for something interesting.

D. To discover danger from a child’s point.

10. What should we do to protect children from falling out of windows?

A. Keep away from a window. B. Place a safety window guard.

C. Move away the window screen. D. Lean(倚) against the window firmly.

11. What’s the last paragraph mainly about?
