An American named Crum invented potato chips in 1853, although that was not his intention (意图). He was a cook at a beautiful restaurant in Saratoga Springs, New York. A regular dish on the menu was fried (油炸的) potatoes, which was an idea that had started in France. At that time, French fried potatoes were cut into thick slices (片).

One day, a dinner guest at the restaurant sent back his fried potatoes to the chef because he did not like them so thick. So Mr Crum cut the potatoes a little thinner and fried them. The guest did not like those either. That made Mr Crum angry, so he thought he would just show the man. He sliced the potatoes paper-thin and fried them, thinking that the man would say nothing about it. However, to his surprise, the man loved the thin potatoes very much. Other guests tried them and liked them. So, Mr Crum's potato chips were added to the menu. They were called Saratoga Chips.

Finally, Mr Crum opened his own restaurant to sell his famous chips. Now potato chips are packaged (包装) and sold in stores.

阅读下面短文，根据要求完成下列各题。

The K-Cup is a great invention. We can see the product everywhere in the world. However, its inventor, John Sylvan, said in an interview, “I feel bad sometimes that I ever did it.”

Why? Because it’s bad for the environment. K-Cups are almost impossible to recycle. John Sylvan couldn’t do much about the problem. He sold the invention to Keurig Green Mountain for ＄50,000 in 1997. Keurig Green Mountain made ＄4.7 billion last year. Much of that money came thanks to K-Cups.

“I’ve told them how to improve the K-Cup, but they don’t listen,” said John Sylvan. Sylvan has found solutions, like reusable K-Cups. He said he even tested his design years ago, and it worked.

However, Keurig Green Mountain refused John Sylvan’s advice. The company said that it had a plan of its own and that it would make 100% of K-Cup packs recyclable by 2020.

What do you think is the most important invention? The TV? The printing? The telephone? Or the computer? A report show that they are not the only important invention. Here are three other important inventions.

One of the simplest inventions is the toilet(厕所). Before toilets, waste ran into rivers from people’s houses. Illness were common in big cities, and it was often difficult to find clean drinking water.

Animal food is another important invention. Before the invention, most animals were killed every autumn because there was not enough food for them in winter. After hay（干草） became a kind of common animal food, animals could live through the long winter.

The third great invention is glasses. Glasses help people read, write and do “close work” after the age of 45. Without glasses, the world would be difficult for the people above 45.

You may think that inventions are far away from your everyday life. But in fact, almost everyone can invent. It’s just that they do not realize that their idea could be the start of an invention. Once inventors see their ideas have some practical value, they don’t let them run away.

For example, the inventors of the dishwasher, American Josephine Cochrane, loved to give dinner parties. But she found it took too long to wash her dishes by hand. She decided that a machine could do the job faster. So, in 1886, she began to make one for herself.

Here are the steps to create inventions. The first and most important step is to find the problem. Start by looking at what is wrong with things you see now and ask people around if they remember ever saying, “I wish someone would invent something for...” Then you might notice situations(情况) or things in need of improvement. The next step is to think about possible solutions. An invention is a new way of solving a problem. So think of many and unusual ways. You can often come up with a solution to a problem by looking at it from a different side.

The hardest part of inventing is coming up with a problem and finding a solution. Once you have an idea, you can always get help building your invention. This problem-solving technique can also work in your everyday lives. So, why not try it in your studies, in your relationship with others, or even in the way you look at the world?
