Bats are the only flying mammals in the world. They can't see very well. It was long believed, and still is in many places, that all bats are blind. “Blind as a bat” is often heard. Yet they have no trouble flying in the darkest nights and finding their way around very well. How can bats fly and see at night? They fly by radar. The bat's radar system works the same way as the one that ships and planes use. As a bat flies through the air, he makes a sound that is too high for our ears to hear. If the sounds hit things they come back. The bat's ears receive the messages. In this way they are able to tell the bat where the things are. Bats go out to look for food at night. In the daytime they hang in some dark places. Some people have the bats as bad animals. In fact they are useful animals.

　　Do you own a camera? Undoubtedly－and you might even have more than one. You probably use 1 often, too. Just slip a camera in your backpack or pocket, and you're off to record your activities on film. But before 1888, you would have needed a wagon or a pack horse to 2 all the necessary equipments just to take one photograph. Early cameras were the size of microwave ovens! But George Eastman changed the 3 the world took pictures.

　　Born in upstate New York on July 12,1854, George Eastman was the 4 of the three children. His father died when George was a young boy. George tried to stay in school, but was forced to quit at 14 and work to support his 5 . He did mental jobs during the day. At night he studied accounting, hoping to get a better job. In 1874, Rochester Savings bank hired him as a junior clerk for fifteen dollars a week.

　　A friend introduced George to photography when he was 24 years old. George loved 6 pictures, but he didn't like the complicated process. He wanted to simplify photography so everyone could 7 it. He worked for years to invent something to replace the heavy glass plates that photographers used. When he succeeded, he started a company to produce his “film”－Kodak. Then he worked on 8 a simple camera. He wanted to make the camera “as easy to use as a pencil”.

　　When he introduced his camera in 1888, George coined the advertising slogan, “You push the button, we do the rest.” People began 9 the cameras, and Kodak soon grew to be very large.

　　Most companies were not good to their employees in the 1800s. But George believed a company's 10 depended on its employees' good will and loyalty. Kodak became the first company to provide workers with insurance and retirement money. George also gave part of Kodak's profits to the employees every year.
