AMAZING NEW INVENTIONS

Every year, more and more amazing things are invented. Here are three of our favourites for this year.

A. Fukuda’s Automatic Door

Can you imagine a door that fits around your body as you walk through it? Fukuda’s Automatic Door was designed in Japan by an inventor named Rikiya Fukuda. It automatically indentifies movement and only opens just enough to match the shape of the person or object coming through. So, what are the advantages? It saves energy by helping to keep the same temperature in a room. It can also prevent dirt and other materials from being carried inside. As well as people, the Automatic Door works for small objects, like packages delivered to a post office, or for larger things, such as a car coming through a garage door.

B. The Hand Roll Piano

Traveling musicians will be happy with this invention. The Hand Roll Piano was invented by the Japanese company Yamano Music. What makes it different is that it can be rolled up like a blanket. This makes it easier to carry and easier to store. The keyboard is 100 cm long but weighs just 1 kg. It has 61 very thin keys and is made of rubber. It’s convenient to carry, but it’s also a great instrument. The piano can be played for up to 15 hours on standard batteries. It has more than 100 sounds and its own speaker.

C. The LifeStraw

Today, more than one billion people in the world do not have safe water. However, it’s been discovered that for the price of a cup of coffee, a life can be saved. The LifeStraw, which costs just $3, is a device for purifying water. It is able to turn dirty water into drinking water. The drinking straw was designed by the Swiss-based company Vestergaard Frandsen. It uses seven types of filter to make water clean enough to drink. It can prevent illnesses and it can also create safe drinking water for victims of hurricanes, earthquakes or other disasters.

Read the passage and complete the tasks that follow. The Pyramids of Giza Egypt has more than one hundred pyramids that are scattered around the country. Those pyramids were built of sandstone brick and as royal tombs for the Egyptian rulers. The three most famous pyramids in Egypt are the pyramids of Giza. They were named the great pyramid of Khufu, the pyramid of Khafre and the pyramid of Menkaure. These pyramids were located on the outskirts of Cairo, which is about eight kilometers from the old city of Giza. Each of the three pyramids has its own features. The pyramid of Khufu, known as the Great Pyramid of Giza, is one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It is considered the oldest and the only ancient wonder that has survived until the present. Egyptologists believe that the pyramid was built over a period of 20 years as a tomb for Pharaoh Khufu, the fourth dynasty Egyptian pharaoh. Nearby, the pyramid of Khufu’s son named the pyramid of Khafre, was built on higher ground. Thus, to the naked eye, it appears to be the tallest of the three pyramids, but in reality, the pyramid of Khufu is the tallest and also the largest Egyptian pyramid ever built. The pyramid of Menkaure, the pyramid of Khafre’s son, is the third pyramid at the Giza cemetery. It has three smaller pyramids which are next to this main st
