1、Passage 4Do you know who Benjamin Banneker was and what he did? Benjamin Banneker was a
self-educated scientist at a time when most African Americans were slaves. Born a free black man
in the British Colony of Maryland in 1731, he received some formal education, but he mostly
borrowed books and taught himself science and mathematics. At 22, he borrowed a pocket watch,
and without any training, figured out how to carve a working wooden clock that chimed each hour. Because of this clock, he became well known and people would visit him just to see his creation.
Banneker ran his family farm from many years, but when he was in his late 50s, a neighbor‘s
son lent him a telescope. He became interested in astronomy, the study of the planets and stars,
and again taught himself a new science. He made calculations of tides, sunrises and sunsets, and
even predicted an eclipse. For several years he published an almanac of these calculations. Today,
he is best known for publishing six almanacs, called ―Benjamin Banneker‘s Almanac‖ between
1792 and 1797.
In the 1790s, Banneker also helped survey and lay out the land for Washington, D. C., which
became the nation‘s capital. For a look at Banneker‘s amazing life, visit the Benjamin Banneker

1、Passage 2
Man has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history had thought about the problem. One of them, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.
Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone of his body and rested in peace.
The first real step took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large ―hot air balloon‖. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.2.Eight hundred years ago an Englishman( ).
