many science books contain this information and its wrong. its bad science. if lightning struck a kite, the electric current (电流) in the string would be so strong that it would kill not only the person holding the string, but also anyone nearby. there is electricity in the air when theres a thunderstorm and it leaks constantly down through air and into the ground, not just when there is a bolt of lightning. electric leakage through the air caused franklins kite and string to become charged (带电的). on the string there was a metal key and during the experiment, tiny sparks were seen on the key. at no point did franklins kite get struck by lightning. the common belief that franklin easily survived a lightning strike is not just wrong, it is dangerous. in fact, if lightning had actually hit his kite, he would most probably have died instantly. 1. according to the quotation from benjamin franklin, you wont be forgotten if you _.a. write something that is worth reading about youb. write a book about your life and what you didc. write something worth reading while do as what you writed. are recorded or record something worth reading答案与解析d推理判断题。见文章第一段内容。2. its _ that makes most people outside america know about franklin.a. his invention b. the declaration of independencec. his quotation d. his experiment with a kite答案与解析d细节理解题。由第三段第一句话可知，是风筝试验使他在美国之外成为知名人士。3. whats the most likely explanation for what happened in his experiment?a. he was hit by a bolt of lightning and proved his experiment.b. lightning hit his kite and proved it was electrical.c. the metal key on his kite string attracted electricity from the atmosphere.d. electricity in the atmosphere around his kite attracted the lightning to it.答案与解析c细节理解题。由倒数第二段可知，空气中的电使得他的风筝及和风筝相连的线带电，线上的金属钥匙发出微小的火星正说明它可以吸引空气中的电。4. which of the following statements is not true?a. his kite did get struck by a bolt of lightning.b. he flew his kite in a thunderstorm to show electrical power from lightning could be used.c. he was one of the people who signed the declaration of independence.d. in fact lightning didnt hit him at all.答案与解析a推理判断题。由倒数第二段最后一句可知，富兰克林的风筝根本就没有被闪电击中。b last sunday, when i went out with melanie, we saw two ladies with their pets in a coffee shop by chance. then we were talking our respective pets at the moment. that was the first time that i was really thinking about effect of pets in human life. i used to have a female pet named sasa at home. when i first met her at my aunts home, she was so lovely and cute. she was with her mother within her first month with my little cousins then she went to my home. she was with my parent passing five months and brought a lot of happiness to my home. unfortunately, she was lost a couple of months ago. i always pray she can find a new family and live with them well. i used to envy the other children who had a pet especially when i felt lonely. i thought pets are good, affectionate, loyal and obedient companions to their master. i used to dream of having the dog in 101 dalmatians who could play with me, do things for me, help me get rid of my loneliness and kill the time. actually, sasa was really a dog like the one in that film. she was the source of fun and happiness at my home. she always entertains and amuses me except when shes ill. i consider pets are really good to families that have children. pets can be guardians and doorkeepers, but whats more important is that keeping pets does good to childrens growth. keeping pets helps children to nurture a tender loving heart and learn to care for others. it helps children to develop their senses of responsibility and teaches children to appreciate life. children get invaluable training in learning to treat people the same way when they treat their pets kindly and patiently. they can also learn the behaviors necessary for becoming responsible parents and citizens from keeping pets. those are social skills that are estates for life.anyway, although pets cause p
