    A 15-year-old student who invented a flashlight(手电筒) getting power from the holder's body heat is going home today from California with a big prize and a chance to do further research.
    Ann Makosinski was the only Canadian among the four winners at Google's international science competition. Thousands of young scientists from around the world took part in the competition.
    Winning the science and technology competition was "a surprise". Ann said, "I think it will have a great influence on my future."
Ann thanked her family for encouraging her interest in science and said that her first toy was a box of transistors(晶体管).
Ann's prize includes $ 25,000 and a "once in a-lifetime expericnce" from Google for her Hollow Flashlight, which has no moving parts or batteries.
    The idea for the invention came from seeing unwanted batteries and her friend's experience. When Ann visited a friend in the Philippines, she saw the friend couldn't study when it became dark because there was no electricity or light. She saw the need for a flashlight that has no batteries - Hollow Flashlight.
    In her project, Ann wrote "I made two flashlights that do not use any batteries or harmful materials. They do not create any noise and will always work. The flashlight needs at least a 5℃ temperature difference between the holder's body and the environment around to produce light."
    A video of Ann explaining how she creatcd the flashlight has been watched more than 1.4 million times on the Internet.
Though Ann was successful, she has not made a decision about her career path. Ann hopes that she can find a way to join her love of film and science together.
    The four winners were chosen from 15 final competitors from eight countries. The competition attracted thousands of students in 120 countries.

阅读下面短文,然后根据括号内所给汉语意思写出单词的正确形式(每空一词)。

Bangkok is the capital of Thailand. And it is also a city full of special {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(风景名胜). The tall glass shopping centres in the city look very modern. But behind them is a place where life has {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(几乎没) changed for over 100 years—the canals(运河), which can date back to 178 These canals are home to many Thai people who {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(从不) leave there.

There are four markets on the canals around Bangkok, and the {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(最古老的) and most popular one is in the town of Damonen Saduak. This market {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(开) at 6:30am every day. People get there {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(早)by water taxi.

It's a noisy but wonderful place. Ladies sit in small boats, filled with {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(新鲜的)fruit and vegetables for sale. But the boats don't just sell food. Would you like a silk necktie? A traditional hat? Then just call and{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (指;指向) at them.

After the noise and excitement of the markets, continue {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(沿着) the canal. Soon you'll see many wooden houses and colourful flowers and hear lovely birds {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(唱歌) in the fruit trees. It's a peaceful way to finish your trip.
