3、shoes to (25) their feet dry. Then came a certain Mr. Mackintosh, who made coats of cloth covered with natural rubber. From that day to this we have been coating cloth with rubber as Mr. Mackintosh (26) , and our raincoats are still named after (27) .These first rubber overshoes and raincoats were a

(30) the rubber we have today is soft and elastic, it is very strong (31) in the warmer summer and the colder winter. This was made possible by a man (32) Goodyear. After many (33) , he found that nitric ac
5、id(NHO3) made the rubber (34) better, but it is not hard and strong enough. Then strange thing (35) . A friend of his, Nicholas Hayward, had the (36) in his sleep that rubber might be made hard and strong if mixed (37) sulphur and put in the sun. Goodyear put this idea to the test, and saw that it d
