【正文】 njoys a meal of good, thick paper, old letters, for example. She doesn39。t like old newspapers very much. Of course, the best paper es from wood. Wood es from trees, and trees are plants. Vegetables and fruit are plants, too, and we eat a lot of them. So can we also eat wood and paper? Scientists say, All food es in some way from plants. Well, is that true? Animals eat grass and grow fat. Then we eat their meat. Little fish eat little seaplants, and then bigger fish swim along and eat them. Chickens eat bits of grass and give us eggs. What food does not e from plants in some way? Scientists can do wonderful things with plants. They can make food just like meat and cheese. And they can make it without the help of animals. It39。s very good food, too. They have begun to say, We make our paper from wood. We can also make food from wood. The next thing is not very difficult. What is the next thing? Perhaps it is food from paper. Scientists say, We can turn paper into food. It will be cheaper than meat or fish or eggs. So please keep our old books and letters. （Don39。t feed your cat.） One day, they will be on your plate, if what scientists say may e true.（1）Why does the writer mention that babies and the cat eat paper?

Some of the greatest men in history have thought about the problem. One of these, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo da Vinci. In the sixteenth century he made designs for machines that could fly. But they were never built. Throughout history, other less famous men have wanted to fly as well. An example was a man in England about 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings* from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into the air from a tall building. As you can imagine, he did not fly very far. Instead he fell to the ground and broke every bone in his body. The first real try took place in France in 1783. The two Montgolfier brothers knew that hot air rises. If they could fill a large balloon with hot air, they thought it would rise into the air and fly. They were right. They made a very large hot air balloon of cloth and paper. They filled it with hot air and the balloon rose two hundred metres into the air. It fell to earth about three kilometres away. In September of that year, both the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. We do not know what the passengers felt about the trip as they were a cock, a duck, and a sheep. But we do know that the trip lasted for 8 minutes and then the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted for twentyfive minutes and they traveled about 8 kilometers.（1）Leonardo da Vinci____________. A.made designs of flying machinesB.built a kind of machine which never flewC.drew many beautiful pictures of the birdsD.said that man would fly in the sky one day（2）Eight hundred years ago an Englishman____________.
