Question

 A 15-year-old student who invented a flashlight (手電筒) getting power from the holder's body heat is going home today from California with a big prize and a chance to do further research.

  Ann Makosinski was the only Canadian among the four winners at Google's international science competition. Thousands of young scientists from around the world took part in the competition.

  Winning the science and technology competition was "a surprise". Ann said, "I think it will have a great influence on my future."

  Ann thanked her family for encouraging her in?terest in science and said that her first toy was a box of transistors (晶體管) .

  Ann's prize includes $ 25,000 and a "once-in-a-lifetime experience" from Google for her Hollow Flashlight,which has no moving parts or batteries.

The idea for the invention came from seeing un?wanted batteries and her friend's experience. When Ann visited a friend in the Philippines? she saw the friend couldn't study when it became dark because there was no electricity or light.
