Did you know that you do not have to be a chemist to invent something? An example of chemistry invention that was made by a non-scientist is Liquid Paper. In 1952, a divorced woman named Bette Nesmith Graham needed to work to support herself and her son. Life was very difficult for a single mother. [1] She soon found a job as a typist, but she was not very good at it. [2] She made a lot of errors typing leading her to formulate a white tempura paint to hide them. [3] Using her kitchen as a laboratory, she developed a liquid that other people wanted to buy and use. She named this liquid “Mistake Out” [4]

While continuing to work as a secretary, she educated herself in business methods, promotion, and research until she was satisfied that the product she had developed was really worthwhile. Sometimes around 1952 she offered “Mistake Out” to IBM, which turned it down. From 1952 until 1979 she continued to make and sell “Mistake Out”, now renamed “Liquid Paper”, out of her home. In 1979, the Gillette Corporation bought “Liquid Paper” for $47.5 million dollars plus royalties.

It was her father that did everything for her and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a courageous, selfless, and loving man.

In early days no medical college took a woman student. Elizabeth Blackwell, however, was
determined to become a doctor. The young American wrote again and again to a number of medical
colleges, asking if she could be enrolled but each time the answer was NO.
Then one day, to her surprise, she got a letter from the dean of a college in Geneva, which said YES.
At first Geneva College, like the other colleges, was not willing to enroll Elizabeth. But later the
important people of that college learned that Elizabeth’s application had the support of a famous doctor,
and they were afraid to offend that man. So the dean decided to play a trick by turning the matter over to
the student’s general meeting of the college, thinking that the students would be the last to agree to take
Elizabeth. When the male students met, most students took no interest in the matter. Of the rest, some
considered the young American’s idea interesting and some thought by having Elizabeth they would be
proud of their college training the world’s first woman doctor. Very soon the students all agreed to
accept Elizabeth.
The dean of Geneva College was of course very sorry to learn this, but seeing that he could do
nothing to keep Elizabeth out, he gave in.
Question 28: Elizabeth was surprised by the dean’s letter because it promised her to_________.
A. have free medical education C. become a student in his college
B. go to Geneva D. go to Italy
Question 29: At first Geneva College________accepting Elizabeth.
A. did not consider C. was interested in
B. thought about D. had no objection to
Question 30: When the male student met to consider Elizabeth’s application,_________.
A. most students were serious
B. most of the students showed no interest in the matter
C. most students took interest in the matter
D. most of the students thought it was a joke
Question 31: Some students thought if they let Elizabeth join them, she would become the first woman
doctor in_________.
A. the world C. Geneva College
B. early days D. Geneva
Question 32: The dean was very sorry when he found his trick ________.

(My landlady’s not so sure - she keeps (2) ________ me I should stop (3)_________ so much TV and do a bit more reading!)
Anyway, we had a wonderful time at half-term. I went off to Paris for (4) ________ days with some of the others from the school, and we went on a guided (5) _________ of the city. We saw most of the famous (6) ___________ like the Louvre, where they have an amazing (7)__________ of paintings, and the Eiffel Tower. Then, we went down to the South of France (8)__________ train. It was so fast – the whole (9)_________ was only about four hours. We spent (10)_________ time in Nice and in Cannes as well, and we all really enjoyed it. On our last day, we went to a small island (11)________ the Ile des Pelerines, and we saw the castle where they used to keep the “Man in the Iron Mask”. All in all, we had a great time and (12)_________ weather was really good as well. The only thing I felt (13)_________ about was that we didn’t have enough time to (14)________ to go swimming – maybe next time.
Anyway, I must go now as I’ve got to (15)_________ a bit of homework for tomorrow.
