49、ference should be that one crystal would made by man, the other by nature. At first this did not seem like a particular hard task. Scientists began to try making synthetic diamonds towards the ends of the eighteenth century and discovered a key scientific fact: diamonds are a form of carbon, which i

50、s a very common element. Then, why not change a cheap and plentiful substance, carbon, into a rare and expensive one, diamond?

A) felt it even harder to succeed in making synthetic diamonds B) soon succeeded in changing cheap carbon into expensi
