　　Even when Benjamin was a boy, he tried to find ways to help people lead better lives. One of his earliest inventions were paddles(短桨) for swimming. Ben had wondered for some time if there was a way to swim faster, maybe with something on his hands and feet. Slowly a picture of swimming shoes, or paddles, came into his mind. Ben thought for a long time. The paddles must be neither too big nor too small. The right kind of wood was important, too. It must be neither too heavy nor too light. He started to work on the paddles and soon finished them. Now Ben was ready to try them out. He decided to try them the following Sunday afternoon in a pond(池塘).

　　Boys gathered around the pond as Ben got ready. He got into the water and began to paddle. He swam slowly at first, then faster and faster until he was travelling through the water like a fish. The boys near the pond jumped up and down, crying with joy(快乐). They had never seen such fast swimming.

　　IV. 1. in the end。这是短语对等转换。 2. called。放在名词(company)后需要用一个过去分词来担任定语，放在后面表示被动含义。 3. took, to read。"主语＋spend＋时间／金钱＋(in)＋动词-ing"形式可以与"形式主语＋take+时间／金钱+动词不定式"的形式互换。4. don't, as / so, as。这句话用的not as / so ... as...的同级比较的形式，把句子的否定放在了主句上。5. was written by。原句是一般过去时，主语是单数，因此使用was +write的过去分词形式，最后by引出动作的执行者。

　　V. 1. for 2. like 3. think 4. Here's 5. different 6. about 7. size 8. sure 9. as 10. be

　　VI. 1. A。构成短语run after，表示"追赶；追逐"。

　　2. C。动词bring常与here搭配，表示将某人或某物带到"这里"的意思。 3. D。用现在进行时是为了强调"狗总在这里跑动"。 4. B。用away说明鱼儿游走了。5. D。与主语we搭配，使用"Shall we +动词原形+其它？"的句型。6. A。咬钩的当然是fish。7. C。动词go的后面接动词不定式，表示"去做某事"的意思。8. A。上文已经说了是在河边钓鱼，因此掉入的地方应该是"水"里。9. D。either表示"也"，用于否定句中。10. B。咬东西显然是要用teeth(tooth的复数形式)。
