15.One afternoon Peter and Jim went out for a bicycle ride.When they passed a place they saw a large area of grass and bushes on fire and a strong wind was blowing the flames towards a village.The firemen had already arrived and were trying to put out the fire.The boys left their bicycles and ran towards the village to see if they could help to fight the fire.On the way they met two firemen."Quick,you boys,"said one of the firemen."Come and help us to pull a pump (泵) to the stream.We can't beat out the fire.The wind is too strong.The pump is our only hope."
The two boys ran further until they came to a heavy pump.They helped to pull it to a stream not far from the village.
Soon the pump was working well so the boys went to watch the fire.It had already reached the edge of the village.The boys saw that two houses were on fire,and the flames were attacking a third building.Suddenly there was a shout from one of the villagers.
"Keep away!"a voice shouted."There's paint stored in that building."The boys and villagers moved away quickly.With a loud explosion (爆炸),the whole building burst into flames,sending clouds of thick black smoke into the sky.
At this time Peter and Jim began to think that the whole village would be burnt to the ground.The firemen had left the burning buildings and were pouring (浇) water onto the neighboring houses,trying to stop the fire from spreading.Then the wind died down.A second pump was brought up to help,and the fire was gradually put out.
"It's soon finished,"Peter said to his friend."We must go or we shall get home late.""Yes,come on,"agreed Jim,and with a last look at the ruins,they walked back to their bicycles.

Ask Dr?Jeffers | This month Dr.Jeffers is answering questions about the human brain and how it works. |
Dear Dr.Jeffers, One of my colleagues,Felix Moeller,told me that scientists are learning to use computer to'read minds'.Is there any truth to this story? -Jane Leon,New York,USA Dear Ms.Leon, Well,a lot of research is being conducted in this area,but so far,the brain scanning equipment and corresponding computer programs haven't been able to actually read thoughts.In one experiment,test subjects(受试者)were connected to scanning equipment and shown two numbers on a screen.They were then asked to choose between adding or subtracting(减)the two numbers.Using this method,researchers were able to follow brain processes and make the correct assumptions(假设)70percent of the time.It's not quite mind reading,but it's certainly a first step. -Dr.J. | |
Dear Dr.Jeffers, My three-year-old son loves it when I dig my fingers into his sides and tickle (胳肢)him until he laughs uncontrollably.The other day I noticed him trying to tickle himself but he couldn't do it.Why not? -Glenn Lewis,Vancouver,Canada Dear Mr.Lewis, It's because of how the brain works.The brain is trained to know what to pay attention to and what to ignore.It causes us to ignore physical feelings we expect to happen,but it causes a mild panic reaction when there is an unexpected feeling.For example,you don't notice how your shoulder feels while you're walking down the street.But if someone comes up behind you and touches you lightly on the shoulder,you may jump in fear.It's that unexpected part that causes the tickle reaction. -Dr.J. |
