Pencils and Pens
No one knows who invented pencil or when it happened. A Swiss described a pencil in a book in 1565. He said it was a piece of wood with lead inside it. (Lead is a very heavy, soft dark gray metal.) Pencils weren't popular, and people continued to write with pens. They used bird feathers aspens. Then, in 1795, someone started making pencils from graphite(石墨), and they became very popular. One pencil can write 50.000 English words or make a line 55 kilometers long. People wrote with feather pens and then used pens with metal points. They had to dip(蘸) the point into ink after every few letters. Next, someone invented a fountain pen that could hold ink inside it. A fountain pen can write several pages before you have to flit again. Two Hungarian brothers, Ladislao and Georg Biro, invented the ballpoint pen. English pilot liked the pens. They couldn't write with fountain pens in airplanes because the ink leaked out Later, a French company called Bic bought the Biros' company. Some people call ballpoint pens "Bics." Australians call them "Biros." Whatever we call them, we use them every day. |

Dear Li Ming, How are you? My name is Mary. I've been looking forward to a pen pal for a long time now. I hope we can become great! Ever since I got your name and address from my teacher Mr. Brown, I have been thinking about to write. First, I thought of tellingwhat it's like to go to school here in London. But then, I thought you couldLondon on the internet and read about it yourself. And then I had the idea to tell you about my family, but I was afraid you might think my questions were . I guess I can tell you about myself. In fact, you've probably already learned one thing about me. Ihave a hard time making up my mind! I hope you will write me back anyway. Sincerely, Mary |
