26、shoulder. “Now, I dont know if I can make it without stopping every so often. Youre young, but youre strong and fast. Do you remember the way back from here to the road, if you had to go aloneJeff flashed back to the painful scene of Mark, his seventeen-year-old brother at their campsite. He was bit
27、ten by a snake yesterday. This morning he couldnt move, and the pain got worse. He needed medical attention right away. They had left their phone in the car, and it must have been out of power by then. Leaving Mark at the campsite and seeking help was their only choice.“Jeff, could you do itJeff loo
28、ked to the end of the canyon, several miles away. He nodded and a plan began to take hold in his mind. “What is the name of that little town we stopped, Dad There must be a hospital there.“Flint. We parked at the side of the road a few miles out of Flint.Jeff nodded. Then they continued climbing. St
29、one by stone, they made their way up the canyon. Gradually, Jeffs father grew smaller and smaller in the distance. Jeff waved to him and then climbed toward the road. Two hours later, he finally reached the road and struggled toward the town, almost exhausted.“Cant stop. He thought. “Marks in big tr
30、ouble. Keep going. Suddenly, he saw a truck heading toward him. “Hey, mister! He shouted, waving both arms. He began to jog toward the truck, and then broke into a full-speed run.His chest was burning with every breath when the truck driver stopped by him. Jeff explained breathlessly. The driver rea
31、ched for his cellphone as soon as he heard about Mark. “Better get the helicopter in there, he said immediately.

35、r most people. However, for a woodpecker 啄木鸟, its not that simple. To get dinner, a woodpecker has to hit its head against a tree numerous times per day. Yet, amazingly, it never suffers any ill effects like brain damage. According to research, it is the woodpeckers thick head bones that protect it
36、from the impact of the blows. For explaining that, Ivan Schwab won an Ig Nobel Prize.Ig Nobel Prizes are organized by The Annals of Improbable Research, an American magazine that celebrates the funny side of science. Each year, ten winners are awarded prizes in honor of their “achievements that firs
37、t make people laugh, and then make them think. Most of the award-winning research, like Schwabs, may seem unusual, but it usually grabs peoples attention indeed. And no matter how ridiculous the research sounds, people can find it inspiring and amusing.Brian Wansinks research might interest you. He
38、took home an Ig Nobel Prize for looking into the influence of visual factors on peoples appetites. He used specially designed bowls that refilled themselves with soup while people were eating. Since these people had no idea this was happening, they just kept eating from these “bottomless bowls. They
39、 said they didnt feel full because their bowls were not empty yet. People in this experiment ate 73 percent more soup than normal. Owing to these results, Wansink concluded that its not peoples stomachs that decide when they have eaten enough, but their eyes.Ig Nobel Prizes also give attention to sc
40、ience and technology that is a part of our daily lives. Take the karaoke machine for example. Its inventor Daisuke Inoue was employed at a nightclub, playing the piano for the customers who wanted to sing. He wasnt skillful enough to play all the songs properly. To clear up the problem, he created t
41、he karaoke machine. To Inoues surprise, the machine caused considerable changes in entertainment worldwide. The Ig Nobel Prize was awarded to Inoue not only because his invention was entertaining, but also because it brought about “an entirely new way for people to learn to tolerate each other.These
42、 research results of Ig Nobel Prizes may not be as great as Edisons light bulb or Newtons laws of motion. However, they do show peoples willingness to take action and to try new ways to solve problems. According to Marc Abrahams, a founder of the Ig Nobel Prizes. “If you win one, it means that you h
43、ave done something.43. Why did Ivan Schwab win an Ig Nobel PrizeA. His discovery can be applied in daily life.B. His research result benefits the environment.C. He invented a new way to avoid the impact of blows.D. He found why woodpeckers could be free from brain damage.44. What is mainly talked ab
44、out in Paragraph 3A. Why Ig Nobel Prizes can get peoples trust.B. Why peoples eyes decide their stomachs.C. Why Wansink won an Ig Nobel Prize.D. Why visual research interests people.45. The Ig Nobel Prize awarded to Daisuke Inoue suggests _.A. Ig Nobel Prizes inventions can easily become popularB. I
45、g Nobel Prize winners are familiar with entertainmentC. most Ig Nobel Prizes inventions are created by accidentD. Ig Nobel Prizes may go to inventions with global influence46. What do the research results of Ig Nobel Prizes have in commonA. They are related to everyday life.B. They solve problems in
46、 peoples work.C. They seem unexpected but meaningful.D. They are ridiculous and hard to understand.DSharentingIts the holiday season, the time when we connect with family and friends.
