Adelaide, Australia. April 13th, 2005
Yesterday a surfer was attacked by a shark off the coast. He was taken to a local
hospital where he is recovering from the attack. The surfer, 24-year-old Matt
Peterson, was taking part in a competition when his surfboard was hit. “It was
amazing,” said Matt, “one minute I was in the water and then without warning I was
flying through the air.” Somehow Matt managed to swim to the shore. “All I could
see were these huge teeth in the shark’s jaw,” said Matt. “When it came at me again I
screamed and punched it on the nose.” Hospital officials said he was OK, just a little
shocked.

A Hi! What are you reading?
B It’s a book about inventions. It’s really interesting. Did you know that
Leonardo da Vinci was an inventor?
A No, I didn’t. What else does the book say?
B Well, who do you think invented printing?
A I don’t know. I know that the Chinese invented paper, so maybe it was them.
B Yes, you’re right, but guess when.
A Oh, probably about five hundred years ago.
B No, approximately two thousand!
A Wow!
B Explorers kept on coming back from countries all over the world with new
ideas that they would introduce. Things like cotton which came from India,
chocolate from South America and lots of other things.
A But we must have invented some things? What about plastic surgery, for
example?
B No, there’s evidence from India that they were doing those kinds of things
more than two and a half thousand years ago.
A Evidence?
B Yes, there’s a medical book with detailed information about how the process
was carried out.
A That’s amazing!
