Windmills are good sources of electricity, and they can bring water up from underground. William didnt know much English, and
19、he wasnt able to understand most of the book, but it was full of pictures. Looking at the pictures, William thought he could build a windmill for his family. When William started building his windmill, a lot of people laughed at him, including his mother. But William saw the photo of the windmill in
20、 the book. That meant someone else was able to build it, so he knew he could build it, too. He didnt have the parts and equipment that he saw in the books pictures.

27、rial as space blankets. “In previous designs, they always had a tail, like a traditional airplane tail,” said the robots main designer Matej Karasek.

28、 on Thursday in Science. “In previous generations,” he said, “flapping wings drove the robot forward while the tail helped to guide and stabilise（稳定） it. But now the DelFly Nimble is completely controlled by the wings.” “The challenge then was actually combining the control into the wing movement, a
29、nd thats what we achieved,” Karasek said. “In the latest generation, the wings can each move individually or rotate （旋转） around the body of the robot. The robot can remain in one place in the air for about five minutes on a full battery or fly for more than a kilometre,” Karasek said, “and because t

33、ese days, it seems like everyone wants to go out into space and live on new planets. Rather than depend on another pre-existing planet, could we make a new, proper planet ourselves? To start with, if wed want to be living on it, we should find a good place in space to put the new planet. Wed want it
34、 to be in a habitable zone, meaning the planet should be at the right distance from its star to make sure there would be perfect temperatures and most importantly, liquid（液态的） water.

35、de our own new planet, wed probably want it to have similar elements and a similar structure（结构）. Wed also want enough water to form some oceans.

36、It would be pretty expensive if we wanted it to be super big.
