四、阅读表达
Are you sitting in a classroom right now? Look around. What do you see? You probably see pencils, erasers, chalk, and other everyday normal things. These little inventions that we never notice are very important parts of our daily lives.
Take Post－it notes, for example.Those are the little yellow notes that are sticky on one side. You just write something on one side of the note, and stick the note to something.That's very convenient, because you're much less likely to lose your note. Also, you can put the note wherever you want. What's more, the notes are very cheap.The man who invented Post－it notes was Dr.Spencer Silver. He was trying to create a super strong glue. Instead，he created a weak glue by mistake. However, when he did that, he helped invent one of the world's most useful office items.
Or how about Velcro(魔术贴)? Velcro is useful because it can hold just about anything together. The scientist who invented Velcro got the idea when he went hiking. He noticed that little burrs(毛刺)were sticking to his clothes. A burr is a small，rough seed that sticks to things.The scientists looked at the burr in his microscope(显微镜). He noticed that it had tiny hooks(钩子). He thought that he could make a clothing material that had similar tiny hooks. His idea worked,
and he created Velcro.
These little inventions have made life easier. Every time you use some small object or a paper clip, remember that it was invented by some clever person a long time ago.
