But they did not know how to apply it to machines. About 300 years ago, some engineers discovered that they couldnt use steam power to for

27、ce water out of deep mines. This helped miners dig deeper than ever. But little more was done with steam power until one man, James Watt, discovered to make steam turn a wheel. When he was a boy, James Watt's parents had scolded(責(zé)罵 ) him for playing with mechanical things. There were few advance

28、d machines then And almost nobody could make a living by fixing them. So Wart's parents thought that playing around with machines was a waste of time. But someone asked Watt to repair a steam coal-mine pump. Watt fixed the pump and he began to build models of other pumps. Once Watt had built his

29、 first steam engines, steam power was used to do many things. Machines were built that could weave(編織), grind(磨) flour, drive a boat or a train, and even make other machines. Nearly anything that needed pushing or turning could be powered by steam. Within 50 years of Watt's invention, steam engi

But when the yearly games for the disabled were started at Stoke M

34、andeville, England in 1948 by Sir Ludwig Guttmann, the situation began to change.Sir Ludwig Guttmann, who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Germany, had been asked by the British government to set up an injuries centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London. His ideas about treating inj

35、uries included sport for the disabled.In the first games just two teams of injured soldiers took part. The next year, 1949, five teams took part. From those beginnings, things have developed fast. Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year. In 1960 the first Olympics for the Disabled

36、were held in Rome, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games. Now, every four years the Olympic Games for the Disabled are held, if possible, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games, although they are organized separately.

37、ville. In the 1984 wheelchair Olympic Games,1064 wheelchair athletes(運(yùn)動(dòng)員)from about 40 countries took part. Unfortunately, they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles, along with the other Olympics.The Games have been a great success in helping the progress of international friendship

38、and understanding, and in proving that being disabled does not mean you cant enjoy sport. One small source(來(lái)源)of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games, however, has been the unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee(委員會(huì))to include disabled events at the Olympic

39、Games for the able-bodied. Perhaps a few more years are still needed to persuade those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athletes should be included.49.

43、r being more than enough”It was in the United StatesThere-fore，that the great adventures in nineteenthcentury agriculture machinery first came. At the opening of the century，with the exception of a crude plow(鑄鐵犁)，farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural tools on their

44、 backs；by 1860，most of the machinery in use today had been designed in an early formThe most important of the easy inventions was the iron DlowAs early as 1790 Charles Newbold of New Jersey had been working on the idea of a eastern plow and spent his entire fortune in introducing his inventionThe fa
