| 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. |

How do you study for exams (考试)? Different students have different ways. Some of my friends are sharing their ideas.
Angela: I often study very hard before exams. I don’t play sports or games in the exam week. And I don’t go out often. I study for hours at night. I don’t go to sleep before 12 o’clock, so I always don’t have enough sleep. But it seems I need to change, because I usually want to sleep when I have exams. Of course I fail some of them. I feel bad!
Haitao: Before exams, I study very hard, too. I buy lots of books and do the exercises in them. Sometimes when I really get tired, I tell myself that I must do them. I think if I practise more, I can do better. But sometimes I feel more confused (困惑的) after doing the exercises. I can’t remember the answers. I don’t know why.
Andy: I never study late. And I don’t do many exercises. I always read my notebooks carefully the day before the exam. And I have enough food and sleep. I don’t think scores are important. I just try my best. Do I get good grades? Yes, I usually do.
