The Rainmaker

Can a person make it rain? Many people believed that Charles Hatfiled could. In the early 1900s, Mr. Hatfield traveled through the United States, Canada, and Mexico bringing rain to farms and cities that suffered from drought. For 30 years, people considered him the greatest rainmaker in North America. In order to make it rain, he used a secret mixture of chemicals that can おbe placed high on wooden towers in special trays. As the chemicals evaporated, they attracted rain clouds to the area. Over his career, Mr. Hatfield even offered to help clear the fog from London and to water the Sahara Desert.

　　 One of Mr. Hatfiled's most amazing rainmaking accomplishments happened in southern California in 1916. Because he knew that the city of San Diego did not have enough water, Mr. Hatfield offered to give the city a hand with its water problem. He planned to create enough rain to fill the lake behind Morena Dam near the city. Since the time the dam was built, the lake had never been more than half full, but the lake could hold 57 billion liters (15 billion gallons) of water if it were full. Filling the lake would help the city of San Diego with its constant water problems. Mr. Hatfield suggested that if he succeeded in filling the lake with rain water, the city would pay him $10,000. If no rain fell, the city would pay nothing. The city agreed because they had nothing to lose from the business deal, and only paying $10,000 for that much water seemed to be a steal.

On January 1, 1916, Mr. Hatfield began his rainmaking procedure. It began to rain four days later. The rain continued for the next five days. On January 10, it began to rain more heavily, and the rain continued for the next 10 days! The city of San Diego was flooded. Fifty people died. More than 200 bridges were washed away, and many miles of train tracks were destroyed. However, Mr. Hatfield did succeed in filling the lake. The water was within 12 centimeters of the top of the dam. Mr. Hatfield thought that he had completed his job, so he went to collect his money from the city. However, the city of San Diego backed out of the deal. They said that the rain was an "act of God" and not the work of the rainmaker. Mr. Hatfield tried to sue the city, but he never collected any money for his work.

Please answer the questions below.

1. Who was Charles Hatfield?
2. What "made" the rain?
3. What happened when it rained in San Diego in 1916?	① ② ③
4. How long did it rain in San Diego?
5. The city didn't pay Mr. Hatfield because they thought that...

　　The next time you use telephone and Internet, you can probably thank Charles Kao(高锟), who was one of the Nobel Prize in physics winners on October 6, 2009．His idea of fiber-optic(光纤)communications has made the modern telephone and Internet possible．People can exchange text, music and photos around the world within seconds thanks to this technology．

　　Half the＄1.4 million prize goes to Charles Kao, 75, for discovering how to send light signals long distance through hair-thin glass fibers．The other half goes to the Americans Boyle, 85, and Smith, 79, for inventing a sensor(传感器)that turns light into electrical signals．Their invention led to digital cameras．

　　Kao was born in Shanghai in 1933 and now has both American and British citizenship(公民身份)．

　　Kao has been interested in science since he was a boy．He once tried making a bomb(炸弹)at home using chemicals and water; then he threw it in the street．Fortunately, no one was hurt!

　　After primary school and the first year of middle school, Kao moved to Hong Kong with his family．He went to Hong Kong University, but he had to go to London University to study electrical engineering．Later he studied fiber-optic communications．

　　Kao said in 1966 that glass fibers could carry light over long distances．Not many took him seriously at the time．But in 1970, researchers in the US were able to make the material．

　　Today the fibers are used throughout the world in computer cables and other cables．The light that flows through them sends text, music, pictures and video globally in less than a second．If you put together all the fibers in the world, you would get a single thread over 1 billion kilometers long．That is enough to go around the globe more than 25, 000 times．

(1)

Why was Charles Kao awarded the Nobel Prize in physics?
[　　]
A．	Because he invented the modern telephone and Internet．
B．	Because he together with Boyle and Smith invented a sensor which changes light into electrical signals．
C．	Because his idea led to the invention of digital cameras．
D．	Because he discovered the way to send light signals through glass fibers．

(2)

The passage mainly tells us ________．
[　　]
A．	Charles Kao's contribution and his growth
B．	Charles Kao together with Boyle and Smith won the Nobel Prize in physics
C．	how Charles Kao discovered fiber-optic communications
D．	how Charles Kao became a great scientist

(3)

When probably did Charles Kao discover fiber could carry light over long distances?
[　　]
A．	In 1970．
B．	In the mid 1960s．
C．	Soon after leaving Hong Kong University．
D．	Before his graduation from London University．

(4)

Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
[　　]
A．	Charles Kao left his parents and went to Hong Kong after the first year of middle school．
B．	Charles Kao is a Chinese-American．
C．	Only a few people considered Charles Kao's idea very useful at the very beginning．
D．	Charles Kao studied fiber-optic communications in Hong Kong University．

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is one of the most loved children’s books of all time, and many adults enjoy it as well. It tells the story of a young girl named Alice, who follows a rabbit entering a magical world called Wonderland. She has many experiences which seem to change the rules of reasoning or common sense. The popularity of the book comes from its imagination, interesting story, and art work.
The writer of the book is Lewis Carroll. In fact, Lewis Carroll was not the writer’s real name. His real name was Charles Dodgson. One day, he took a boat ride down the Thames River to have a picnic with three little girls who were friends of the family. To keep them entertained on the ride, he told them a story in which Alice, the middle child, was the main character. They enjoyed the story very much.
Charles later wrote the story down under the name Alice’s Adventures Under Ground and gave it to Alice as a Christmas present. Later, he gave a copy to his friend George MacDonald. George read it to his children and they loved it. George suggested to Charles that he make a book from his story. Charles then wrote more parts to the story until it was around 35,000 words. It was first printed in 1866, with art work by John Tenniel, under the name Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The book was an immediate success. One of its first fans was Queen Victoria. She immediately requested a collection of all of Lewis Carroll’s works. She was surprised to find that they included many works on math. In fact, Charles Dodgson was a highly respected mathematician. This can be seen in many puzzles and plays on reasoning that appear in his books and poems.
Since the story was first printed, it has kept selling up to the present day. It has been translated into over fifty languages and has had several movies based on it.
