By watching the way birds fly，Leonardo tried to find out the secret of flying. Among his sketches(素描)we can see several objects. We consider them as modern flying machines. Leonardo spent many hours thinking about how to make good use of time. He developed ideas for labor-saving machines like cutting machines. Leonardo was a strange man.

IV. 任务型阅读（每小题2分，满分10分）An American named Crum invented potato chips in 1853, although that was not his intention (意图）. He was a chef(厨师长） at a beautiful restaurant in Saratoga Springs, New York. A regular dish on the menu was fried （油炸的） potatoes, which was an idea that had started in France. At that time, French fried potatoes were cut into thick slices (片）. One day, a dinner guest at the restaurant sent back his fried potatoes to the chef because he did not like them so thick. So Mr. Crum cut the potatoes a little thinner and fried them. The guest did not like those either. That made Mr. Crum angry, so he thought he would just show the man. He sliced the potatoes paper-thin and fried them, thinking that the man would say nothing about it. However, to his surprise, the man loved the thin potatoes very much. Other guests tried them and also liked them. So, Mr. Crums potato chips were added to the menu. They were called Saratoga Chips. Finally, Mr. Crum opened his own restaurant to sell his famous chips.
