二、阅读理解
One day, Becky was waiting inside her family's car while her mother was shopping. Becky was trying to finish her maths homework, but it was getting dark outside. She wondered how she could solve her problem. "So I thought it would be great to have my paper light up," Becky said.
Becky was certain she had a good idea, and she just needed to turn it into a good plan. She thought about her glow-in-the-dark(发光) Frisbees(飞盘) in her toy box and studied them. She learnt that they used phosphorescence(磷光).
Becky's father took her to a store, and there they bought some phosphorescent paint. Becky tried out her idea in her bathroom. It was a great place to test her idea because it was the darkest room in the house. First, she applied(涂) the special paint to a piece of paper and held the paper up to a light bulb. When she turned the light off, the paint on the paper glowed. Next, Becky applied the special paint to a plastic board. She held the board up to the light bulb and found that the painted board glowed. Over the next couple of years, Becky improved her invention. She named it the Glo-sheet(发光的纸). Then she became one of the youngest females to receive a U.S. patent(专利).
Soon a newspaper told a story about Becky's invention. People and businesses began ordering the Glo-sheet. They loved her simple new tool because they could use it whenever they needed to write in the dark. Medical workers used it when they needed to make notes while caring for patients during nighttime. Theatre critics(批评家) used it to write notes when they watched plays in dark theatres.
