—Sorry, I drove slowly in the crowded street.
A. because B. because of
C. in front of D. before
B 【解析】 句意:-因为你我们在雨里等了两个小时。-对不起,我在拥挤的街道上开车很慢。because因为,是一个连词,引导原因状语从句;because of因为,后面跟名词、代词或者动名词形式;in front of 在…前面;before在…之前。根据对话的意思可知,这里表示等了两个小时的原因,空后的you是代词,故A不行,应选B。Invented (发明) it. Zhang Heng was born in Nanyang in the Eastern Han dynasty. At that time, earthquakes (地震) happened every year. People thought they were from ghosts, but Zhang Heng didn’t believe that. He studied about earthquakes for many years, and in AD 132 he invented the first seismometer (地动仪) in the world. | |
Used it. At first, people didn’t believe it. In December, AD 134, Zhang Heng’s seismometer told that there would be an earthquake in the west of the country. After four days, three earthquakes really happened there. People believed that it was helpful from then on. But the seismometer was lost later. | |
Reproduced it. Scientists tried to reproduce a seismometer like Zhang Heng’s in the past years. Now there is a reproduced one in Shanghai museum. Some people say it was a little helpful during the earthquakes in Tangshan. We hope it will be better soon and be really able to help people one day. |
