These inventions should be better known， even though I think that some of them are crazy. Lets have a look at some of these inventions and see if you agree that they should be more successful.The Australians had a great idea to stop people from drinking and driving. The idea was that if a driver wanted to start the car， she or he would have to blow into a bag first. If there was too much alcohol(酒精) in their breath， the car wouldnt start. It sounded like a great idea to me， but people said that they might need to drive the car in an emergency even if they had drunk too much alcohol. Another idea I liked was an invention by a scientist who thought his children watched too much TV. He linked the TV to an exercise bike so that the electricity to power the TV was generated(产出) by the bike. If the children wanted to watch a lot of TV， they had to pedal(踩踏板) very hard. I found another invention on the Internet which was intended (倾向于) to encourage good habits. Believe it or not， this invention was an ashtray(烟灰缸) which spoke to you when you lit a cigarette! The “voice” of the ashtray was activated (启动) by the heat from the cigarette and reminded you how dangerous it is to smoke.One of the strangest inventions I have come across is a bicycle which can cross rivers! The idea was that when you came to a river， you could inflate a huge plastic ball all around the bike. You would then get into the ball which would float on the river while you pedaled the bike inside the ball! Why not use a bridge instead? A friend of mine at school once bought a strange pair of football shoes. On the bottom of the shoes there was a rotating pad of studs (转动钉垫). The idea was that you would change direction more quickly if the studs rotated with you. The problem was that every time you stopped you changed direction whether you wanted to or not! I think he wore those shoes twice! One thing I would like is a baseball cap with a built-in radio so you can listen to sport all day with your hands free. While we are on the subject of sport， the Americans invented a kind of robot for sports fans. If you were watching your team on TV on your own， you could press a button and the robot would do “high fives” with you! Fantastic! I wonder if you have any good ideas for inventions like these.（1）Whats the writers attitude towards the inventions mentioned in Paragraph 2? A . The writer regrets he knew nothing about the inventions.B . The writer wonders if the inventions will be popular soon.C . The writer thinks people will benefit from the inventions.D . The writer finds these inventions are the strangest of all.（2）The underlined word “inflate” in the third paragraph means _. A . check outB . blow upC . look intoD . turn over（3）Whats the best title for the passage? A . Popular Inventions Today.B . Technology and Invention.C . The History of Invention.D . Inventions with a Difference.16. （5分）请认真阅读下面短文，在短文后表格中的空白处填入适当的单词(注意：每空1个单词)。Over the last few centuries, there have been many changes in our lives.To start with, people were not able to travel such a long distance in such a short time in the past. Planes were not very popular at that time because they used to be a very expensive way to travel. Nowadays, we have fast, comfortable cars, and more and more people can travel by plane.Secondly, in the past, people had to work much harder because they did not have the tools that we have today. Today, most of the difficult and dangerous work is done by computers and machines.Thirdly, in the past, the living conditionswere not as good as they are now. There were no bathrooms or running water in many houses, and many people could not buy things like fridges, TV sets or washing machines. Now, most families have several of these things.Finally, nowadays, more and more people have the chance to get a good education. In the past, there were fewer schools and the quality of education was much poorer. Also, it is much easier to find the educational materials that you need on the Internet now.The scientific and technological development in the world is amazing. Life now is much faster and busier than it used to be. And we are still creating new things to make our lives better and easier.Title:_in our livesIn the pastTodayTransportationPeople couldnt travel very far in a short time.

Travelling with kids is good for them. They can find new interests. Travel makes information alive for kids, and makes it much more exciting than studying textbooks or doing experiments in the laboratory. While travelling, they learn how to deal with new situations, and communicate with other people. They learn patience, because sometimes it takes a long time to get to some exciting or interesting places.Ive been travelling since I was seven years old. For me, to stop travelling would be like taking something away from my soul（灵魂）. I cant live without travelling. Some people think its hard to travel after having kids. But in my opinion, when people become parents, it doesnt mean they cant travel any more.
