24、阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。

A proverb (谚语) is a short, well-known saying that expresses a common truth or belief. Proverbs are found in most cultures and are often very old. In American history, Benjamin Franklin was a scientist, inventor and writer as well as a leader of the American Revolution.

【1】

Franklin wrote a book called “Poor Richard’s Almanac”. It included many proverbs that he had heard or created. Some of them are still used today, like this one: “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” Franklin is also remembered for other proverbs like, “A penny saved is a penny earned.” 【2】

Here are other examples of proverbs that Americans use. The first ones are about love. Some people say, “All is fair in love and war.” They mean that anything you do in a relationship or in battle is acceptable.

【3】 In other words, when you are in love with someone, you may refuse to see anything bad about that person.

Here is another popular saying about love: “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.” Some people believe that a woman can win a man’s love if she prepares his favorite foods.

“【4】” This proverb is true in love and war or other situations. It means that what you do is more important than what you say.

We have to stop here, so we must say, “All good things must come to an end.”

27、The biggest secret about inventing is that anybody can do it! Perhaps this sounds crazy, but it’s true. Maybe you have the wrong idea about inventing, so read on to discover the truth.

Wrong idea No.1： An invention has to be something completely new.

Well, inventing means creating something “new”, but the idea could come from something that already exists*. The Wright Brothers, for example, got the idea for building a “flying machine” from watching birds.

Wrong idea No.2： Inventors are born, not made.

There are a lot of factors* that make invention possible. Take Mozart, for example. He was born with an endowment for musical composition. But other factors were also important for his creativity. His father was a music teacher, and Mozart practiced for hours every day, from the time he was four years old. Thomas Edison said that being an inventor was “99% hard work and 1% inspiration”!

Very successful creators don’t give up when they get something wrong. As one inventor said, “A failure is the right answer to the wrong question.”

Wrong idea No.3： Inventors are always old people.

Don’t believe that you can’t invent something when you are young. Here are two examples of young inventors： Louis Braille went blind when he was a child. When he was fifteen, he invented a system of reading and writing for blind people that is still used in most countries today.

As a young man, George Nissen was watching some artists performing in a show. He watched how they fell into the safety net and then jumped back up again. This gave him an idea, and he invented the trampoline*.

【1】   got the idea for building a “flying machine” from watching birds.

A. Mozart       B. George Nissen

C. Louis Braille D. The Wright Brothers

【2】The underlined word “endowment” probably means “   ”.

A. 态度 B. 品质 C. 天赋 D. 能量
