Thomas Adams, an American inventor, is the father of modern bubble (泡泡) gum. During the 1870s, Adams discovered a new way to make chewing gum by accident, while he was trying to find a use for chicle (糖胶树胶). Mr. Adams wanted to make rubber (橡胶) from chicle.
Mr. Adams worked for a long time trying to make rubber from chicle. His oldest son also helped him sometimes. But they never discovered a way to make it work. One day, Thomas Adams was in a store when he heard a young girl ask for some chewing gum. Adams and his son had been chewing chicle while they were working on the rubber, so he decided to give up trying to make rubber from the chicle and make gum instead. At that time, chewing gum was made from spruces’ sap (云杉树液). This chewing gum didn’t taste very good. Adams thought chewing gum from chicle tasted better. He and his son wrapped small pieces of chicle in colorful paper and sold it. People everywhere began chewing his gum at once.

D
There are over 800 boarding (寄宿) schools in the United Kingdom with students from home and foreign countries. Boarding schools started hundreds of years ago in the country. But the earliest boarding schools were set up for white, rich boys only. Now, both boys and girls can go to boarding schools from the age of 7 to 18.
What to do
In the United Kingdom, boarding schools have three terms in a school year, and there are about 13 weeks each term. Students study and live with one another. They need permission to go outside. In some schools, each student has his or her own schedule. Besides the usual classrooms and laboratories, the boarding schools have lots of other equipment for their students, including music rooms, boats, swimming pools, cinemas and theaters. Most boarding schools have a “lights out” time. So when it’s time to go to bed, all the lights in the dormitories are turned off. Some senior teaching staff work as housemasters (舍监). Each of them takes care of 50 students all the time, and especially after school hours.
64
Nearly all students at boarding schools in the United Kingdom wear a school uniform. Boys usually wear a shirt and a tie, and girls wear a white blouse (罩衫), sometimes also a tie and a skirt. As students get older, the rules become less strict.
What to eat
In the United Kingdom, boarding schools provide students with delicious food. They can choose to have a full English breakfast or simply bread with marmalade (柑橘酱). They can also choose between a vegetarian meal and another meal at lunch and dinner. And there is always a salad buffet (自助餐)，other side-dishes and a dessert. Many boarding dormitories also have a kitchen so students can make themselves something to eat at any time, or drink tea or have a snack between meals.
