(科普知识与现代技术)
1、In ten years, I think I’ll be a reporter. I’ll live in Shanghai, because I went to Shanghai last year and fell in love with it. I think it’s really a beautiful city. As a reporter, I think I will meet lots of interesting people. I think I’ll live in an apartment with my best friends, because I don’t like living alone. I’ll have pets. I can’t have any pets now because my mother hates them, and our apartment is too small. So in ten years, I’ll have many different pets. I might even keep a pet parrot! I’ll probably go skating and swimming every day. During the week I’ll look smart, and probably will wear a suit. On the weekend, I’ll be able to dress more casually. I think I’ll go to Hong Kong on vacation, and one day I might even visit Australia.
2、 Who invented tea?
Did you know that tea, the most popular drink in the world (after water), was invented by accident? Although tea wasn’t brought to the Western world until 1610, this beverage was discovered over three thousand years before that. According to an ancient Chinese legend the emperor Shen Nong discovered tea when he was boiling drinking water over an open fire. Some leaves from a nearby bush fell into the water and remained there for some time. The emperor noticed that the leaves in the water produced a pleasant smell. Later he decided to taste the hot mixture. It was quite delicious. And in this way, one of the world’s favorite drinks was invented.
