There were so many 　14　about Mr Moore's black bear during the next week that he at last put an advertisement (广告） in the newspaper; “If any one saw a black bear blowing the horn in a car outside the Century Hotel 　15　the evening of Christmas Day, please tell…”

　Two days later 　16　Mrs Richards called him and said that she and her husband had left their pet (宠物) bear in their car outside the Century Hotel for a few minutes that evening, and that　17　he had blown the horn.

　Mrs Richards did not 　18　to think there was anything 　19　 about that. “Our bear likes blowing car horns,” she said, “and we don't 　20 　when we are not driving the car.”

　　　Can you imagine(想象)what life would be 　21　if there were no telephone? You could not call on your friends on the phone and talk to them. If fire broke out in your house, you could not call the fire department (救火队). If somebody were sick ,you couldn't call a doctor.

　　　In our daily (日常) life we need to talk with each other. We do this 　22　by speaking to others and listening to what they have to say to us, and when we are close to them we can do this very easily. But, our voices will not travel very far even when we 　23　, and it is thanks to the invention of the telephone that we are able to talk with one another and ask something when we are in different places. We can hear each other as clearly 　24　we were in the same room.

　　　Alexander Graham Bell made this possible. He spent all his spare time experimenting (实验)。 He worded so hard in his research that he had 　25 　time to make money (挣钱) and was very poor at one time.

　　　　     Albert found lessons very difficult. His teacher would tap her pointer (教鞭) against the blackboard impatiently (不耐烦) while she waited 1 him to answer her questions. But Albert always had to think about many things before he 2 answer. After all, he would say to himself, there are 3 different things 4 about before you can say anything that is absolutely certain.

　　     When his teacher wasn't asking Albert a question, Albert would 5 a question to ask her. And often when he did, she would get red 6 the face and angry at Albert 7 thinking up questions she couldn't answer.

　　     The more Albert learned, 8 he found to think about. The more he thought about, 9 questions he thought of 10 .

　　     He knew that the earth, other planets, the moon and the sun are just a part of 11 we call the universe. He knew that the universe is also 12 all the stars we can see 13 our eyes and millions and millions more that we can see only 14 the largest telescopes and still more—we think—that 15 far away they can't be seen 16 . And he also knew 17 all these stars and our own bodies and everything 18 are made up of atoms (原子) so tiny they can't be seen even with the best microscope.

　　     He thought there must 19 some rules to 20 why everything in the universe, big and little, acts as it does. Why don't the stars 21 around in the sky bump (撞) into each other? 22 makes the tiny atoms stick together to form all the different things there are? Albert Einstein thought and thought 23 he believed he had some of the answers. And people started asking 24 questions because he had 25 for many things that scientists had been trying to figure out for many, many years.
