At that time,we had a big yard in which a beautiful maple  tree stood. But my mother often looked with 3    at this work of natural art. Those golden  leaves seemed like tons of rubbish to her. "They are just something to 4    ! " Seeing the neighbors busy with gardening, my father ever thought it a waste of time.

At that age,I always did something 5   to whatever my parents  did!If gardening was something they found 6   ,I would plant a garden!

I planted some lily(百合花)seeds in the yard. But they failed to 7    . I continued to plant some sunflower seeds and roses. Wild 8    joy,I found the first rose bloom(开花).One by one,the flowers bloomed their heads off9   .1 was touched by this land of wonder.

10    ,my parents showed no interest in my garden. My father even 11    at me because he found it was 12    to move around my garden to the driveway. To my mother' s 13    ,I put in her vase my real roses which, in her eyes,were simply weeds ―14 flowers.

Regardless of their 15    ,I kept on planting my garden and 16    to enjoy the pleasure of gardening. Plants make such good companions:they breathe, they bloom,they 17    to care and love.

Most people know Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone. But not many know about another talking device (equipment) he invented just four years later,in 1880. He called the device the photophone.

"Photophone" comes form the Greek words for "light" and "sound". The photophone did not use electricity to carry sound over wires between two people. That' s what a telephone does. Instead,

the photophone used a beam of sunlight traveling through the air. With his invention, Bell could actually transmit(传递)human speech on a beam of light. To do so,he spoke close to a thin mirror that was reflecting sunlight. The vibrations(颤动)of his voice caused the mirror to vibrate,and the vibrating mirror caused the light to vibrate. The vibrating light hit a light-sensitive cell in a receiver placed some distance away. The cell changed the light patterns into electrical signals. Earphones changed the signals back into sounds.

Bell believed that his idea of talking on a beam of light would prove to be important. He often called the photophone his greatest invention. Even though the photophone depended on a source of energy that was not constant一the sun―Bell wasn' t a bit discouraged. He felt sure that people would one day talk using beams of light.

Two much more recent developments made Bell' s dream come true. In 1960 ,a scientist built the laser. A laser produces a highly concentrated beam of light. Shortly afterward, other scientists developed a new kind of optical fiber. The optical fiber is a glass thread. The new fiber could carry light beams long distances―as far as several miles.

(   ) 1. According to Bell's own opinion,        is his greatest invention.

A. telephone    B. optical fiber C. photophone    D. laser

(   ) 2. What does "That" refer to in the underlined sentence?

A.  Using a beam of sunlight traveling through the air.

B.  Using electricity to carry sound over wires between two people.

C.  Transmitting human speech on a beam of light.

D.  Light and sound.

(   ) 3. Which statement is true about Bell,s invention of photophone?

A.   The photophone depends on a constant source of energy.

B.   The photophone is based on the invention of the telephone.

C.   Earphones are used to change light into sounds.

D.   The laser and the optical fiber are helpful for Bell' s invention.
