In his first class, he gave us a 31 about an animal called cattywampus, which died out during the Ice Age. He passed 32 a skull(头盖骨) as he talked. We felt proud for feeling it, took 33 and later had a quiz. When my paper retuned, I was shocked at the big red cross through 34 of my answers. Why? I had written down exactly what he said. Very simple, Mr. Whitson explained . He had made up the story about the cantywarnpus. Needless to say, we were extremely 35 . We could have found him out, he said.

He succeeded in making America a big car country. Growing up on a far-away Michigan farm, Henry Ford knew little of farming - but he soon showed signs that he belonged to a new generation of Americans interested more in the industrial future than in the agricultural past. His father, William, hoped that his eldest son would join him on the farm enable it to become larger, and at last, take it over. But Henry hated farm work and did everything he could to avoid it. It was not that he was lazy. Far from it. Give him a mechanical job to do and he would set to work eagerly. It was the daily life of the farm, with its repetitive tasks, that frustrated him. What a waste it is, he wrote years later, remembering his work in the fields, for a human being to spend hours and days behind a slowly moving team of horses. So Henry turned his attention elsewhere. When he was twelve, he became very interested in clocks and watches. Soon he was repairing clocks and watches for friends, working at a bench he built in his bedroom. In 1876, Henry left the farm, and three years later, he took a job as a mechanic in Detroit. By this time steam engines had joined clocks and watches as objects of Henrys fascination. According to Henry himself, he first saw a steam-driven road engine one day in 1877 when he and his father, in their horse-drawn farm wagon, met one on the road. The engine driver stopped to let the wagon pass, and Henry jumped down and went to him with many technical questions about the engines performance. From then on, for a while, Henry became fascinated with steam engines. A chance meeting with an old co-worker led to a job for Henry as an engineer at the EdisonDetroit Electricity Company, the leading force in another new industry. Power stations were being built and cables being laid in all of the United States major cities; the age of electricity had begun.But although Henry quickly learned the rules for his new job - so quickly that within four years he was the chief engineer at the Detroit power plant - his interest in fuel engines had control of his life. At first in the kitchen, and later in a shed at the back of his house, he spent his spare time in the evenings trying to build an engine to his own design. Henry learned it was a slow, hard business to build an engine by hand. Every piece of every part had to be made separately, checked and rechecked, and tested. Every problem had to be worried over and solved by the builder. To ease the burden, Henry joined forces with anothermechanic, Jim Bishop. Even so, it was two years before they had succeeded in building a working car. It was a simple one, fixed on bicycle wheels and driven by a rubber belt that connected the engine to the back wheels. Henry called it the Quadricycle.46. Henry tried to avoid farm work because .

Four French teens were out exploring in the woods off the northern slopes of the Pyrenees. Many years before, an old pine tree fell and left a large hole in the ground. The teenagers were curious and they started to explore the area and fell into one of the most important archeological finds of the twentieth century! There are over a hundred limestone caves in this region of France. Some were inhabited by humans thousands and thousands of years ago. Between 15,000-17,000 years ago, humans painted lively creatures such as cows, bulls, horses, and even cats on the walls of the cave. Why did they mark these walls? Was it to tell a story? Was it to record a famous battle? There are many mysteries and ancient secrets still waiting to be discovered in the cave of Lascaux. There were dots in many of the paintings. What do these dots mean? Were they meant to record time, a calendar? Deep in the cave, there is a drawing of a birdman, What does this mean? Was it a place for sacred ceremonies? No one knows for sure. The actual cave of Lascaux was closed in 1963 due to the over-abundance of tourists visiting the site. The carbon monoxide that people were breathing out was causing damage to the fragile cave paintings. Up till now the Lascauz cave is still closed for tourists. Only a specialist can visit the cave by a special order that must be made out almost a year in advance. Not more than six persons can enter the cave per day. Two days a week, the cave is completely closed. Due to the great interest of numerous tourists, in 1983 Lascaux II was opened for tourism. It is an exact replica of the cave of Lascaux,56.
