从牛顿和玻义耳，到金勒、普里斯特利和亨利•卡文迪许，中间隔着一个世纪。在这个世纪里，化学得到了长足的发展，但还有很长的路要走~~~

书本的朗读语音很charming的磁性英音~~~大家可以好好学着模仿哦~~~！！
因为原著为美国人所写,单词采用美式拼法,不抄全文，也不用写序号。答完一空换行继续下一空作答。文中需听写单词或词组用[-No-]表示，句子用[---No---]表示。请边听写边理解文意，根据下面的TIPS训练听写。这样可以提高听力准确度，并为训练听译打下基础哦~~~
TIPS听写训练点：单词拼写，时态，单复数，连读，长难句（请边听边用符号先记下内容，然后自己回头组织语句，最后校对，不要逐字逐句听写）
Hint:
Combustion
Although chemistry had come a long way in the century that separated Newton and Boyle from Scheele and Priestley and Henry Cavendish, it still had a long way to go.

从牛顿和玻义耳，到金勒、普里斯特利和亨利•卡文迪许，中间隔着一个世纪。在这个世纪里，化学得到了长足的发展，但还有很长的路要走。直到18世纪的最后几年（就普里斯特利而言，还要晚一点），各地的科学家们还在寻找--有时候认为真的已经发现--完全不存在的东西：变质的气体、没有燃素的海洋酸、福禄考、氧化钙石灰、水陆气味，尤其是燃素。当时，燃素被认为是燃烧的原动力。他们认为，在这一切的中间，还存在一种神秘的生命力，即能赋予无生命物体生命的力。谁也不知道这种难以捉摸的东西在哪里，但有两点是可信的：其一，你可以用电把它激活（玛丽•谢利在她的小说《弗兰肯斯泰因》里充分利用了这种认识）；其二，它存在于某种物质，而不存在于别的物质。这就是化学最后分成两大部分的原因：有机的（指被认为有那种东西的物质）和无机的（指被认为没有那种东西的物质）。
