题组层级快练5 Unit 5 Nelson Mandela-a modern heroⅠ. 阅读理解In 1905，11－year－old Frank Epperson from San Francisco, California, invented the Popsicle. It was a freezing evening when he decided to make himself a soft drink. He mixed soda powder and water with a wooden stirring stick but somehow forgot about his drink and left it outside.When he woke up the next morning and returned to get it, his drink was frozen with the wooden stir stick stuck in the frozen liquid. He ran the glass under hot water and licked the frozen treat off the wooden stir stick. He had invented a new treat and named it Epsicle.The next summer he started selling the treat around his neighborhood for five cents a piece. As written by smart side news, he patented (取得……的专利权) the Epsicle later in 1923 under the name frozen ice on a stick. Reportedly his children urged him to change the name of the treat since they always asked for “Pop's sicles”．Unfortunately, he was forced to sell his Popsicle rights to the Joe Lowe Co, since he was broke and had to liquidate all his assets to stay out of debt.The Popsicle gained more popularity, and the Joe Lowe Co. took it to national fame. They added a second stick during the Great Depression, making it even more popular than before. Reportedly around 8，000 Popsicles were sold in one day at Brooklyn's ConeyIsland amusement park. The company even changed their name to the Popsicle Corporation.They faced competition from Good Humor, which produced chocolate－covered ice cream on a stick and charged the Joe Lowe Company for copyright infringement (侵权). After a series of lawsuits (法律诉讼), the court decided that the Lowe Company could sell frozen treats made from water while Good Humor could continue to sell its ice cream.In 1989 Unilever purchased the Popsicle brand and later also Good Humor, putting an end to the feud(宿怨) between the two companies. Unilever now sells around 2 billion Popsicles each year.1. Which word can best describe how Frank Epperson invented the Popsicle?A. Accidentally.B. Purposely.C. Gradually.D. Painfully.2. How old was Frank Epperson when he patented the Epsicle?A. 16.B. 29.C. 35.D. 45.3. Who gave the frozen treat the name Pop's sicles?A. Frank Epperson.B. Frank Epperson's children.C. the Joe Lowe Co.D. Unilever and Good Humor.4. What is the right order of Frank Epperson's events?①He sold treat for five cents a piece.②He named the treat frozen ice on a stick.③The Joe Lowe Co. went into court with Good Humor.④The treat got its name as the Popsicle.A. ②①④③B. ④①③②C. ①②④③D. ③②④①答案与解析【文章大意】1905年11岁的Frank Epperson一个偶然的机会发明了冰棍，并于1923年申请专利。
由于破产将冰棍权限卖于the Joe Lowe Co. 公司，该公司随后与the Lowe Company发生侵权纠纷，于1989年才尘埃落定。
1. 答案 A解析推理判断题。
第一段和第二段描述了11岁的Frank Epperson把冷饮忘在屋外发明冰棍的整个过程，这个过程纯属偶然。
2. 答案 B解析细节理解题。
1905年Frank Epperson才11岁，1923年申请专利，因此Frank Epperson 那时29岁。
3. 答案 B解析细节理解题。
第三段最后一句提到他的孩子要吃Pop's sicles。
4. 答案 C解析细节理解题。
十二岁在家附近一根冰棍卖5分；申请专利；称冰棍the Popsicle；发生法律诉讼；1989年尘埃落定。
故选C项。

Do celebrities really have the power to influence people, especially teenagers?For the longest time, many parents blame teen idols for influencing the way their kids act. Have you noticed how teens idolize the celebrities these days? Even, their personal affairs are being followed by kids these days. Take for example the case of Lindsay Lohan and Mary Kate Ashley.

They use thin models and celebrities to endorse(做广告宣传) products or to star in anup-and-coming shows or movies. With fierce competition, celebrities are forced to eat less and do extreme exercise routines to get the roles or offers that come their way.Living in today’s time and generation is a bit disturbing to a lot of parents. Media, especially as well as the celebrities, have a very powerful influence to drive teenagers to good or bad. It’s good that we can control ourselves to avoi d bad things from happening.
