Look at the center circles of Diagram （图）A and Diagram B．

Which of the centre circles looks larger?

Take a first look and you probably think that the centre circle in Diagram

“What’s happening? Is something wrong with my eyes?” You may wonder

at what you see．Don’t worry．Here is how it goes：

When we look at things，our eyes send messages to our brains and then our

brains interpret（解读）the information．However，sometimes our brains

interpret the received information in a wrong way．It seems that our eyes are playing a joke on us．This often happens and we call it “Visual illusion（视觉错误）．

Movie makers often make use of illusions．They make the objects around actors much smaller or bigger than usual．This makes us believe that the actors are much larger or smaller than they usually are．The movies Jurassic Park and Honey I shrunk the kids just make use of illusions．

Is human blood all the same? “Yes．” You may say．“It’s all red．”

Well，it’s not as simple as you might think．

Blood is made up of different parts，such as red blood cells（红血球），white blood cells and platelets（血小板）．

Two chemical molecules（分子）on the red blood cells make people’s blood different．Scientists mark one molecule “A” and the other molecule “B”．According to which and how many molecules are on the red cell，scientists divide blood into four types：A，B，AB and O．

Your blood type will stay the same all your life．

Scientists have been wondering if there are some links（联系）between people’s blood types and their personalities，but they are not certain．

But some say that people with the same blood type may have things in common．

What’s your blood type? Do you have family members or friends who are of the same type as you? Read the following．

People with Type A：They look peaceful from the outside．But they ask too much of themselves that they may be very nervous inside．They get happy or sad easily．Sometimes they are shy but always very careful．They can easily win people’s trust．

People with Type B：They have strong minds．Once they start a task，they don’t give up easily．They’ll try their best to finish it and do it well．Type B people always try to make themselves different from others．They want to do things in their own way．

People with Type AB：They are maybe the strangest among all blood types．They can be both open and shy，noisy and quiet at the same time! They are responsible and always ready to help others．

People with Type O：They are open and good at making friends．They always start tasks but don’t always finish them．They have lots of new ideas and love to be the centre of attention．They always strongly believe in themselves．

（    ）1．The blood types are decided by _______．

A．the kind and amount（数量）of molecules on the white cell

B．the kind and amount of molecules on the red cell

C．the kind and the amount of platelet

D．the amount of white blood cells

（    ）2．Scientists are _______ about the relations between blood and personalities．

A．have strong minds          B．be always ready to help others

C．look peaceful outside       D．always start a task and don’t finish it

（    ）4．If a person is both open and shy，noisy and quiet at the same time，he or she might

A．Blood Type                                         B．Red Cells and White Cells

C．Personality                                          D．Blood Type and Personalities

People often said Thomas Edison was the greatest genius of his age．There are only a few men in all of history，who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light．But Edison could never be pleased only because someone said he was a genius．"There is no such a thing as genius，" Edison said．He thought what people called genius was mostly hard work．

But Edison was a thinker as well as a worker．From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature．He tried to understand them，and then he tried to learn what he could usefully do with them．

Edison enjoyed thinking．He knew that most people would do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking，especially if they do not think very often．But he knew，too，that thinking could give men enjoyment and pleasure．

Edison could not understand why anyone could not be interested in life．As he loved to think，he also loved to work．On the day he became 75 years old，someone asked him what idea he had about life．"Work，" he answered，"Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier．" He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work．

A mother camel was walking with her son through the desert．They were looking for water and grass．

The son asked his mother what water and grass looked like．The mother replied that water was blue and looked like the sky，while grass was green and nice．

After they had walked a day and a night，her son suddenly cried，“Look，mother，there’s water and grass over there．”

“What a foolish talk，child!”

The water and grass was on the left，while the desert was on the right．Because the mother camel had been blind in her left eye since she was a baby，she could see nothing with her left eye．

After they had gone another day and night，the young camel found a second oasis，but his mother still did not believe him．She said that was not an oasis，but a desert．She said she knew more than her son and couldn’t be wrong．
