Invented (發(fā)明) it.

Zhang Heng was born in Nanyang in the Eastern Han dynasty. At that time, earthquakes (地震) happened every year. People thought they were from ghosts, but Zhang Heng didn’t believe that. He studied about earthquakes for many years, and in AD 132 he invented the first seismometer (地動儀) in the world.

Used it.

At first, people didn’t believe it. In December, AD 134, Zhang Heng’s seismometer told that there would be an earthquake in the west of the country. After four days, three earthquakes really happened there. People believed that it was helpful from then on. But the seismometer was lost later.

Reproduced it.

Scientists tried to reproduce a seismometer like Zhang Heng’s in the past years. Now there is a reproduced one in Shanghai museum. Some people say it was a little helpful during the earthquakes in Tangshan. We hope it will be better soon and be really able to help people one day.

B

Have you heard of the saying, “Elephants never forget”? We can know that elephants have good memories, But do you know monkeys have good memories, too?

Monkeys can recollect what they’ve seen, according to a science study. It offers clear evidence (證據(jù)) that monkeys have ability of memory like humans.

Scientists found out that monkeys can recall simple shapes from memory. They even can draw those shapes on a computer touch screen.

Scientists say that findings suggest that the memory of humans and monkeys is more similar than scientists knew. Monkeys can recall. Recall is necessary for planning and imagining, and can increase social behavior and other skills. By recalling, monkeys show an ability to remember things that are not present at the moment.

A scientist named Benjamin Basile said, “The ability of monkeys to recall these shapes suggests that they might be able to recollect other kinds of information that would be useful to them in the wild. They may be able to recollect the appearance of things they knew, what their favorite foods look like, or the path they would have to take to a pond.

The scientists say that the ability to recollect does not depend on language. The ability may have been present in our common ancestor (祖先) million years ago.

A. only elephants have good memories

B. only monkeys have good memories
