Cafe Espresso is loved by many coffee experts（行家） and is known as "The rose of coffee ". Espresso is made by forcing very hot water under high pressure through finely ground (细磨的） coffee. Crema, a heavy red-brown foam layer(泡沫层) , stands for good espresso. It tastes strong and bitter for those who are new to the coffee world.

Cafe Americano is an espresso shot (一份一盎司的浓缩咖啡)that tastes with hot water. It's said the name was given to Americans whom the Europeans believed didn't like drinking straight espressos. Americano is recommended to new coffee lovers who may find the espresso taste is too strong. In China, many coffee shops add cream and sugar to Americano to suit the taste of regular customers.

Cappuccino and Latte are the favorite kinds of coffee among girls, both consisting of espresso, steamed milk(热蒸奶)， and frothed milk(奶沫). All this makes the coffee taste weaker.

【题目】

“I will think of it.” It is easy to say this， but do you know what great things have come from thinking?

Sir Isaac Newton was sitting in his garden when he saw an apple fall from a tree. He began to think and tried to find out why the apple fell. Then he discovered how the sun， moon， and stars are kept in their places.

A boy named James Watt sat quietly by the fire， watching the lid of the kettle move up and down. He wanted to find out why the steam in the kettle moved the lid. From that time he went on thinking and thinking. And when he became a man， he improved the steam engine (蒸汽机) so much that it could easily do the work of many horses.

James Ferguson was a poor boy. Once， seeing the inside of a watch， he wondered. “Why should I not make a watch?” But how could he get the materials to make the mainspring (钟表的主发条)? He soon found he could make it with whalebone (鲸骨). He then made a wooden clock which kept good time. His motto (座右铭) was “I will think of it.” And he made his thoughts useful to himself and the world.
