SPEAKING
1. Read the quote and answer the questions.
“The scientific man does
not aim at an immediate
result. He does not expect that his advanced ideas
will be readily taken up. His work is like that of the
planter - for the future. His
duty is to lay the founda-
tion for those who are to come, and point the way.
He lives and labors and hopes.”
Nikola Tesla
