Many people know the names Alexander Graham Bell and Thomas Edison. However, most people don’t know the name of the man who invented the television, Philo Farnsworth. Philo Farnsworth was born in 1906 and grew up on a potato farm. As a boy, he loved to learn about science, and he read a lot of science books. When he was only thirteen years old, he drew a picture of a machine that could send pictures as radio sends sounds. He got the idea from the way the potatoes were planted in the field. The potatoes grew in long lines, side by side. This made a shape in Philo’s mind. This shape helped Philo think of a way to send the TV picture onto a piece of glass. But he was poor, so Philo could not try to make his idea into a machine at that time. Later, Philo worked at many different jobs. He worked with trees. He worked on broken radios. He worked on trains. He also worked as a street cleaner. At last, two rich men heard about his idea for television, and they gave him the money to make it. On September 7th, 1927, they watched Philo test the machine he built. When Philo turned on the machine, a small line could be seen on the glass. Philo said, “There you have it, electric television.” Later, a big company, RCA, said they had made the first television. Philo had to spend a lot of money on lawyers to fight them. Finally, he won. Then, World War Two started in 1939. During the war, Philo spent a lot of money helping the US army instead of building up his television company. After the war, other bigger, richer companies started making televisions. In the end, Philo had to sell his company. 小题1:Why does the author mention Bell and Edison at the beginning of the text? A．To remember both of them. B．To prove their wisdom. C．To introduce the topic of the text. D．To explain their relationships. 小题2:According to the text, how old was Philo when he finished his invention of TV? A．27 years old. B．21 years old. C．33 years old D．39 years old 小题3:Philo Farnsworth got the idea for TV from ______. A．the radio B．science books C．potato fields D．a machine 小题4: The underlined part “building up” in the last paragraph probably means “______”. A．starting B．selling C．putting up D．making bigger 小题5:Which is the correct order of the following events? a. Two rich men gave Philo money to do experiments. b. Philo sold his own company. c. Philo beat RCA in law. d. Philo fixed broken radios. e. Philo showed his invention to others. A．d, a, e, c, b B．e, d, c, b, a C．d, c, e, b, a D．a, c, b, d, e

ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL
　　He believed that one should always be curious and his most famous saying was:
　　"Leave the beaten track occasionally and dive into the woods.Every time you do you will be certain to find something that you have never seen before.Follow it up,explore all around it,and before you know it,you will have something worth thinking about to occupy your mind.All really big discoveries are the result of thought."
　　It was this exploring around problems and his dynamic spirit that led to his most famous invention - the telephone in 1876.Bell never set out to invent the telephone and what he was trying to design was a multiple telegraph.This original telegraph sent a message over distances using Morse code (a series of dots tapped out along a wire in a particular order).But only one message could go at a time.Bell wanted to improve it so that it could send several messages at the same time.He designed a machine that would separate different sound waves and allow different conversations to be held at the same time.But he found the problem difficult to solve.One day as he was experimenting with one end of a straw joined to a deaf man's ear drum and the other to a piece of smoked glass,Bell noticed that when he spoke into the ear,the straw drew sound waves on the glass.Suddenly he had a flash of inspiration.If sound waves could be reproduced in a moving electrical current,they could be sent along a wire.In searching to improve the telegraph,
　　Bell had invented the first telephone!
　　Bell was fully aware of the importance of his invention and wrote to his father:
　　"The day is coming when telegraph wires will be laid on to houses just like water or gas – and friends will talk to each other without leaving home."
　　The patent was given in 1876,but it was not until five days later that Bell sent his first telephone message to his assistant Watson.The words have now become famous:
　　"Mr Watson - come here - I want to see you."
　　Alexander Graham Bell was not a man to rest and he interested himself in many other areas of invention.He experimented with helicopter designs and flying machines.While searching for a kite strong enough to carry a man into the air,Bell experimented putting triangles together and discovered the tetrahedron shape.Being very stable,it has proved invaluable in the design of bridges.
　　Bell was an inventor all his life.He made his first invention at eleven and his last at seventy- five.Although he is most often associated with the invention of the telephone,he was indeed a continuing searcher after practical solutions to improve the quality of everybody's life.
