Ⅴ. 阅读理解
What are you holding in your hand while you are taking the exam? Right.
A pen.
The history of the pen is very long. A long time ago, people used sharp stones to make marks on things. Then, the ancient Egyptians made reed(芦苇) pens. They cut reeds and used them to write. Later, in China, people invented the writing brush. It feels soft and can write beautiful characters. In the Middle Ages in Europe, it was popular to use feathers(羽毛) of birds to write. And now, we have all kinds of pens like ballpoint pens(圆珠笔) and gel pens(中性笔). They are very convenient.
Pens are widely used in many ways. Students use pens to do homework and take notes in class. Scientists use pens to record experiment results. Artists use special pens to draw pictures. Pens help us record knowledge and history. Because of pens, we can read many great works from different times. Pens also let us show our creativity. We can write our own thoughts and feelings. And when we write with a pen, it makes us think more.
In the future, pens will be more amazing. With the development of science and technology, pens might have built-in cameras to record what we write and draw. Maybe they can change colours according to our feelings and correct our spelling mistakes right away. They will also connect to the Internet, helping search for information while we are writing. What's more, they will be made of new materials that are environmentally friendly.
Pens are not just simple tools. They are the most powerful instrument that we own. They are a big part of culture and lives. They have changed the world greatly and will keep being important in the future.
