42、ed “pasteurization（加热杀菌法）”. In 1854 Pasteur was made head of the department of science at the University of Lille, and it was there that he made one of his most famous discoveries. Lille was a major center for wine and beer-making, and some of the local wine-makers asked Pasteur if he could help sol

43、ve the problem of keeping wine fresh. At that time, it was believed that food and drinks go “bad”due to a purely chemical process(变过过程). But during a series of experiments Pasture proved that tiny living organisms(微生物) caused food and drinks to go bad. In the case of wine and beer the organisms are

44、already present in the form of various yeasts(酵母) that caused the fermentation(发酵) process. Pasteur discovered that heating the wine gently for a few minutes after it had fermented would kill off the yeast that was left in the wine, with the result that the wine would remain fresh for much longer. H

45、e also proved that food and drinks could be turned bad by other organisms（有机体） that were present in the air, and that they too would keep fresh much longer if they were kept in airtight（密封的）containers.The heating process was so successful that it made Pasteur famous. It was named “pasteurization”in

46、his honour, and by about 1900 it had been widely used for processing and bottling cows milk.

50、umber of wars in the worldE Since telegrams are paid by the number of words, that is to say that every word costs money. So people always try to use as few words as possible. Little words like “a”, “an” and “the” disappear. So do all those auxiliary verbs that English students hate: do, does, Is. .

51、. So a news reporter who wanted to know how old a famous film star named Cary Grant was sent her a telegram, saying, “How old Cary Grant?” Unfortunately, although the little words have gone, nobody knows where they have gone. So the reporter received a reply from Cary Grant which read “Old Cary Gran

52、t fine. How you?” But perhaps the shortest telegram in the English language was from an Irish writer called Wilde. He was living in Paris then and sent a telegram to his publisher in Britain to see what the readers thought of his new book . The message said “ ?”. The publisher sent back a telegram,
