17、- it Notes, the pieces of paper that you can fasten almost anywhere and then remove without leaving any sign that they were there, are an example of such an invention. Post-it Notes were invented 20 years ago by Art Fry, a scientist at 3M Company. The idea came from a frustrating experience while si
18、nging. Fry used pieces of paper as bookmarks to mark the places in his book of songs, but these bookmarks were always falling out. He knew he needed a bookmark that would stay where he put it without damaging the pages.Aroundthattime,Fryheardthathisworkmate,Dr.Spence Silver had created a new adhesiv
19、e (粘合剂)which was special because it was sticky, but not too sticky. It was strong enough to hold papers together, but weak enough to not tear the paper when it was removed. Fry saw that the new adhesive could help solve his bookmark problem. One morning, Fry put some of the adhesive on the top of a
20、piece of paper. Just as he hoped, it made a perfect bookmark. Later, Fry realized that his new invention can also be used as a great bookmark. He came to this idea when he wrote a note on one of his new “bookmarks” and attached it to a report he was going to give to a workmate. Soon, the workmate as
21、ked Fry for more samples of his invention so that they could use the new type of notes themselves. When some salespeople at 3M went to offices and showed workers just how helpful the new type of notes could be, they immediately received many orders. As more and more people discovered how useful Post

Signs like that have a way of attracting small children, and sure enough, a
26、little boy appeared under the store owners sign. “How much are you going to sell the dogs for?” he asked. The store owner replied, “Anywhere from $30 to $50.” The little boy reached in his pocket and pulled out some change. “I have $2.37,” he said, “Could I look at them?” The store owner smiled and
27、took the boy to the dog nest. To our surprise, the little boy selected limping dog and said, “Whats wrong with that little dog?”The store owner explained that a doctor had examined the little dog and had discovered it dont have a hip socket(膝盖骨).It would always limp. The little boy became excited, “
28、Thats the dog I want to buy.” The store owner said, “No, you dont want to buy that little dog. If you really want him, I will just give him to you.” The little boy got quite upset. He looked straight into the store owners eyes, pointing his finger, and said, “I dont want you to give him to me. That
29、little dog is worth as much as all the other dogs and Ill pay full price. In fact, I will give you $2.37 now, and 50cents a month until I have paid all the money for him. ” The store owner said, “You really dont want to buy this little dog. He is never going to be able to run and jump and play with
30、you like the other dogs.” To his surprise, the little boy revealed a badly, disabled left leg supported by a big metal brace.

35、get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your choice of sports might have great influence on the environment. Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, b
36、ut also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep itscoursein good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry areas of Portugal and Spain, golf is often responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There
37、are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You dont need anything special except a good pair of shoes; and you dont have to think about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will
38、 be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control. Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled material
