People knew about electricity hundreds of years ago, but they didn’t understand it until the English scientist William Gilbert described it clearly and first used the word electricity in 1600. As a result, Gilbert is   1   the father of modern electricity.

In 1660, the first machine for   2   static electricity was invented. In 1729, scientists learned how to tell conductors from non-conductors .In the late 18th century, scientists invented the   3   batteries , and in the early 19th century, they invented the earliest form of an electric motor. Practical application of a motor had to wait 10 years until a scientist invented the electric generator . Around half a century   4  , Pearl Street Station, the  5   power factory began producing electricity on September 4,1882, in New York City. Pearl Street had one generator and it produced power for 800 electric light bulbs . Within 14 months, pearl Street had 508 users and 12,732 bulbs.

Today, one power factory in the Us can produce enough electricity for 180,00 homes.

In many Western schools, sports day is a big event. Children take part in competitive sports, trying to break school records and win gold medals.

Sports days, or sports meets, are usually held in the warmer seasons, either at the beginning or the end of the school year. They are also called field days.

Elementary school sports days are fun. They usually have activities such as the egg and spoon race and the sack race. Other events include the skipping race and the three-legged race. In middle and high schools, sports days include many of the common track and field events. They are more serious and competitive than elementary school ones.

Students parents and other relatives also come to the school on sports day. They are audience!

Although sports days are exciting, they also have some problems. According to some reports in the US, sports days have become too competitive to be good for students. Some parents put too much pressure on their children. Some schools have banned “mothers and fathers” races as there is much fighting and cheating.

 “USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?” We often hear such discussions. As China opens its doors, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students. They want to learn about the world.

It’s true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Language skills will improve and it may be easier to find jobs.

But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture.

Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad sinking into an ocean of difficulties and giving up easily. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.

Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?

We know that there are many famous people who succeed in great things through their hard work in China. Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympics.
