一、短文填空：阅读下面短文,在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内单词的正确形式填空
You may think that complete wheels are necessary when it comes to bicycles, but one creative (1)invention (invent) recently shows that two half wheels are just as good as one full wheel. Sergii Gordieiev is a (2)mechanical engineer and Internet star. He is (3)known (know) for his wonderful inventions. Of these, his latest creation is undoubtedly the most eye catching. His (4)unusual (usual) bike has two half rear wheels (后车轮) instead of a complete one, and they work together to do the job of a normal one. As strange as it sounds, when used (5)correctly (correct), are just as good as one full wheel. The key (6)to this invention is the timing (定时) of the split (分裂的) wheels. As one of two half rear wheels is in the air, the other half wheel lands on the ground to keep everything (7)balanced (balance). (8)What a clever idea!
Gordieiev says that even if the wheel is perfect, as he tries to show 0.5+0.5 = 1, there’s really no good reason (9)to break (break) a perfectly good bicycle. The engineer says that he just hopes to excite people’s (10)interest (interesting) in DIY through his example and encourages them to be creative.

答案： 1. invention 2. mechanical 3. known 4. unusual 5. correctly 6. to 7. balanced 8. What 9. to break 10. interest

If you want to try making something at home, I can recommend tie-dyeing (扎染). All you need is a piece of cloth (一块布), rolls of thread and a bowl of dye. You can make your own special T-shirts with strong colours and interesting patterns. You can also try other DIY activities. How about cooking delicious food (做美食)? It is also fun to make cute clothes for your pets. Making things at home brings us a lot of happiness (给我们带来很多快乐). It can help us reduce pollution (减少污染).

答案： tie-dyeing; a piece of cloth; cooking delicious food; brings us a lot of happiness; reduce pollution
