Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on 8th January, 1942. He went to school in St Allbans, a small city near London. Although he did well, he was never top of his class.
After leaving school, Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics and then went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology(宇宙学). As he himself admits, he didn’t work hard. He was a very lazy student, and did very little work. However, he still got high marks.
It was at the age of 20 that Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him. He started to bump into things. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his mother was so worried that she made him see a doctor. Hawking was sent to hospital for tests. Finally, the result came back. Hawking had motor neuron disease (运动神经元病, an incurable illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe or move without the help of a machine. Doctors said they had no way to help him. He would die before 23.
At first, Hawking became very depressed. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later wrote, “Before my illness was diagnosed (诊断), I had been very bored with life. There had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do.” Then Hawking got married and found a job at Cambridge University as a professor. He strongly believes that his story shows that nobody, however bad their situation is, should lose hope. “Life is not fair.” He once said. “You just have to do the best you can in your own situation.”
24. As a university student, Stephen Hawking _______.
A. worked hard
B. studied math and physics

26. In the passage the underlined word “incurable” means _______.
A. 可以治愈的B. 难以确诊的 C. 常见的 D. 无法治愈的
. When Hawking was first diagnosed with motor neuron disease, he _______.
A. became very sad
B. made up his mind to get married
C. thought that nothing in life was worth doing
D. began to see his life in a different way
C
Using a mobile phone before going to bed can damage your health, according to a major study.
It says that radiation from the mobile phone can cause insomnia (失眠症) and headaches as well as cutting the time spent in deep sleep. Failing to get enough sleep can lead to sadness and hopelessness, lack of attention and personality changes. In teenagers and young children, lack of sleep can lead to attention disorders and poor grades.
The research showed that using mobile phones before bed causes people to take longer to reach the deeper stages of sleep and to spend less time in them.
Deep sleep is important as it is the time when the body rejuvenates (更新) cells and repairs damage suffered during the day. Scientists found that using mobile phones an hour before sleep affects it. In the study scientists examined the sleep patterns of 35 women and 35 men aged 18 to 45. Some were exposed to (暴露于) radiation that is similar to what a person receives when using a mobile phone. The others received none. The results are as follows: The first group took longer to enter the first of the deeper stages of sleep and spent less time in the deepest one. However, the second group was opposite.
The findings will shock many parents. Many parents are always worried about their children’s health. But they didn’t have a better way to persuade them not to use a mobile phone.
28. The passage mainly tells us that ________.
A. deep sleep is good for your health
B. different people have different sleep patterns
C. long sleep can renew cells
D. using a mobile phone before sleep can damage your health
29. The underlined word “ it” refers to ________.
A. people’s body
B. a sleep pattern
C. deep sleep
D. a day
30. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. The findings shocked many teachers and teenagers.
B. Deep sleep is a good time for the body to repair damage suffered during the day
C. The study examined the sleep patterns of 70 people.
D. Using mobile phones before bed causes people to take longer time to enter the deep sleep.
31. We can infer from the passage that _________.
A. the lack of sleep can lead to children’s excitement
B. many children use mobile phones before sleep
C. radiation from the mobile phone can cause parents’ worries
D. using a mobile phone before sleep doesn’t harm the aged
32. Where can you probably read the passage?
A. Travel guide
B. Advertisement
C. Research report
D. News report
D
Travis is the manager of G&G where he is responsible for forty employees (雇员) and profits (利润) of over $2 million per year. He’s never late to work. He does not get upset on the job. When one of his employees started crying after a customer screamed at her, Travis took her away. “Your working uniform is your shelter,” he told her. “Nothing anyone says will ever hurt you. You will always be as strong as you want to be.” Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training courses, an education program that began on his first day and continues throughout an employee’s occupation. The training has, Travis says, changed his life. G&G has taught him how to live, how to focus, how to get to work on time, and how to master his emotions (情绪). Most importantly, it taught him willpower. At the center of that education is an extreme focus on an all-important habit: willpower. Dozens of cases show that willpower is the single most important habit for a person’s success. And the best way to strengthen willpower is to make it into a habit. “Sometimes it looks like people with great self-control aren’t working hard — but that’s because they’ve made it automatic,” Angela Duckworth, one of the University of Pennsylvania researchers said. “ Their willpower occurs without them having to think about it.” The company spent millions of dollars developing programs of study to train employees on self-control. Managers wrote workbooks that serve as guides to how to make willpower a habit in workers’ lives. Those courses are, in part, why G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more than $10 billion a year.
33. We loam from Paragraph 2 that employees in G&G must ________.
learn to give lectures
B. design a working uniform
C. attend education programs
D. develop a common hobby
34. Willpower will become a habit when employees can _________.
A. control their feeling well
B. focus on the profits
C. benefit from the job
D. protect themselves well
35. What can we infer from the passage?
A. G&G has grown into a large company.
B. G&G will spend half its profits training employees.
C. G&G has to produce more workbooks for managers.
D. G&G may become more successful in the future.

Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.
