2019中考外研社英语课文：Module 4 Great inventions

2019中考外研社英语课文：Module 4 Great inventionsDad, can I ask a favour? Can I borrow your digital camera?Why?I’d like to take some photos on the school visit to the museum next week.Is this for your school magazine? Has it been published yet?Yes, two issues have been published. But it’s going to be an online magazine from now on. What’s wrong with an ordinary magazine?Do you mean using paper? It’s too expensive. If the magazine is online, paper won’t be needed. That’s an important advantage. It’ll be publis hed on the school website, and it can be read on screen.Well, that makes me think. Paper and printing have been used for ages. We once got information from books, but now the same information can be read or even listened to on computers.I wonder … Can books be replaced by computers? Maybe I’ll write something for the magazine! Anyway, about the camera…?Here it is. The battery hasn’t been charged for a couple of months. It’s been turned off since your mum’s birthday party.It doesn’t matter. I’ll see to t hat.But you must promise that it won’t be lent to anyone, and it won’t be left at school! Just look after it. Is that clear?Promise!Can books be replaced by computers?By Tony SmithEvery morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every day I open my books in class and start my lessons. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?Paper was first created about 2000 years ago, and has been made from silk cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand. As a result, they were expensive and rare. And because there weren’t many books, few people learned to read.Then printing was invented in China. The first printed books were made by putting ink on a wooden block and holding the paper against it. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly, in a way that can be compared with introduction of the internet in the 20th century.But will books be needed in the future? Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD -ROMs or machines such as MP3 players. These machines are smaller and lighter than books so that they can be carried very easily.Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don’t th ink the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two metres high! #p#分页标题#e#。

the greatest invention课文概括

the greatest invention课文概括The Greatest InventionLord Dunsany"What do you think is going to happen, Jorkens?" one of us asked one day at the club."Happen?" Jorkens said. "That is hard to say. In the old days one had a rough idea of what other countries wanted to do and their ability to do it. But it is all different now.""How is it different?" asked the man."There are so many inventions," Jorkens said, "of which we know nothing. Now that a man can carry in a bag a bomb that is more powerful than several battleships, it is hard to find out what any country can do or will do next. I will give you an example."I was on a ship in the tropics (Jorkens told us), and we put intoa port. I was tired of looking at the tropical sea, so I went ashore and walked into a tavern to see if they had any decent wines in that country. As it turned out, they hadn't. But there was a man there with a black mustache and a certain look in his eyes that made me wonder if he might not have something interesting to tell. So I asked him if I might offer him a glass of wine. Well, he was good enough to accept, and I called for a bottle of the queer local wine. When the bottle had been uncorked and the winepoured out, like liquid tropical sunlight, I watched it go down under that black mustache. And when a certain amount had gone down, he began to talk."We aimed at the mastery of the whole Caribbean," he said, "and don't think that because we are a little country we could not have succeeded. War is no longer a matter of armies; it depends on the intelligence of scientists. And we had a scientist who, as I have since seen proved, had no rival west of the Atlantic.""You proved it?" I could not help saying."Yes," he said. "You shall hear."I had another bottle of wine set before him, and I did hear. "You may not have thought it," he said, "but I was in our Ministry of Warfare."And I had not thought it, for he was not at all what one would regard as the figure of a soldier.But warfare, as he explained to me, has altered."Our Minister," he said, "was a cavalry officer and could not adapt his ideas to modern science. He thought of war simply as an opportunity for cavalry charges and fine uniforms and glory. We had to get rid of him in order to fulfill our just aspirations." "And what are they?" I asked."Why, the domination of the whole Caribbean," he said. "And it is just that we should have it. We are the people who have been born to it.""Of course," I said soothingly, though I did not know for which country he spoke."Once the Minister of Warfare was gone," he went on, "we turned our minds to modern warfare, and we began to make great progress. Modern warfare gives grand opportunities to little countries. Once, if a nation had twelve battleships it was a Great Power, and we could only obey. But what if we know how to let loose a plague capable of destroying whole nations? Must we be silent then about our just aspirations? No. We shall speak." "Certainly," I said."Other nations know something of germ warfare," the stranger said. "We looked for a new and deadlier germ. And we had the man who could not only give us that, but a more effective way to spread it—his name was Silvary Carasierra. We knew that we had marvelous powers within our grasp, if only Carasierra could be kept at his work.""Idle, was he?" I said, for I thought it very likely in a hot country like that."No," said the stranger. "Never idle. Always spurred on by afierce ambition. His very life was devoted to making inventions. Yes, he worked and he was working for us on something wonderful. Ah, well. We relied, and rightly, on that man's wisdom; but we forgot his folly."The man was silent."What did Carasierra do?" I asked."That ambition was driving him all the time," he said. "He knew that he was the greatest scientist in the world, and he was determined to show it. As long as the germ on which he was working seemed the most wonderful thing ever invented, he was more than content. But before he had completed it, another inspiration came to him and drove him away. I tried everything: threats, appeals to him to think of our ancient glory, even bribes. But nothing would turn him from his project. The splendor of his new inspiration gripped him, and he was like a man drugged. "And the splendor of our positions faded like dreams. We were so nearly one of the Great Powers but for a fancy that came to this man's mind.""What was Carasierra's fancy?" I asked."I will tell you," he said. "Day after day I went to his laboratory and appealed to him, almost with tears, to return to his work for us. But no, he would not listen. I gave him every chance. But atlast I had to threaten him with death.I told him that if he would not return to his proper work he would have to be shot. But there was a queer light in his eyes that day, and really I think he hardly heard me. He would only say, 'I have done it, have done it.''Done what?' I asked him, the stranger continued.'The most wonderful invention,' he said, 'the most wonderful invention ever achieved by man.''You will be shot,' I repeated, 'if you don't get on with your work.' 'This is more wonderful,' he said.'Well, show it to me,' I demanded. He took me out to his lawn. And there he pointed. I saw only a square yard of grass, marked off with a strip of white tape. 'What is it?' I asked.He took up his tape and marked off a smaller area, one of only a few inches. 'Do you see anything wonderful there?' he asked. 'Look close.'And I looked close and said, 'No.'That is what is wonderful,' he said. 'You see no blade different from the rest?''No,' I said again.'Then you have seen the most wonderful invention of all that man has made,' he replied with a wild look in his eyes. 'For oneof those blades of grass I made myself.''But what is the use of that?' I asked.'Use! Use!' he repeated, and laughed. 'I do not work for use, but for wonder.''It will be wonderful,' I said, 'when we dominate the Caribbean.' 'It is far more wonderful,' he said, 'to have made a blade of grass.'That I had to admit. But I added, 'You will return to your work now.'And at that he laughed more wildly.'No, now that I can do this,' he exclaimed. 'I am going on to make flowers.'I examined his blade of grass, and he gave me every facility, showing me the entire process in his laboratory. The blade was perfect and was clearly alive, but he satisfied me that it was artificial. A marvelous man. It was a pity. But we responsible ministers cannot make threats that we do not carry out. I had threatened him with death, and he had to be executed..." "Whether it was that the stranger's tale was told," Jorkens concluded, putting down his glass, "or that the influence of the queer wine was over, he fell then to silent brooding, gazing, as it seemed, into the past at the grip that his country had lost on theCaribbean, perhaps on the world."邓萨尼爵士“你认为会发生什么呢，乔更斯？”一天在酒吧里我们当中的一个人问道。
