His parents house was in north London, but during the Second World War Oxford was considered a safer place to have babies. When he was eight, his family moved to St Albans, a town about 20 miles north of London. At eleven Stephen went to St Albans School, and then on to University College, Oxford, his fathers old college. Stephen wanted to do Mathematics, although his father would have preferred medicine. Mathematics was not available at College, so he did Physics instead. After three years and not very much work he was awarded a first class honours degree in Natural Science.Stephen then went on to Cambridge to do research in Cosmology, there being no one working in that area in Oxford at the time. His supervisor was Dennis Sciama, although he had hoped to get Fred Hoyle who was working in Cambridge. After gaining his Ph. D, he became first a Research Fellow, and later on a Professorial Fellow at Gonville and Caius College. After leaving the Institute of Astronomy in 1973 Stephen came to the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, and since 1979 has held the post of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics. The chair was founded in 1663 with money left in the will of the Reverend Henry Lucas, who had been the Member of Parliament for the University. It was first held by Isaac Barrow, and then in 1663 by Isaac Newton.Professor Hawking has twelve honorary degrees, was awarded the CBE in 1982,and was made a Companion of Honour in 1989. He is the recipient of many awards, medals and prizes and is a Fellow of The Royal Society and a Member of the US National Academy of Sciences.25.

Whatever you think about London, visiting as a tourist is very different from living there. Each part of London has its own character. Some parts are richer than others, or more industrial, or have better housing.Lets start with the centre, the “Square Mile”. This is the oldest part of London. In the past, it was where all financial business was done. Not many people live here, but 300,000 people work here every day.Moving west, we come to the West End. This busy shopping and entertainment district is bursting with things to do. Take a walk down Oxford Street, and you will see big department stores like Selfridges and Harrods. Rents here are very high; a one-bedroom apartment may cost around 1,000 pounds a week. Further away is West London. This area is more residential(住宅的)and very fashionable.The East End contains the Port of London, which historically is where many immigrants first arrived. Waves of French, Belgians, Jews, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis have all lived here. This makes the culture of this area very various. London won the bid to hold the Olympics in 2012, so many Londoners hope that housing, education and employment for many people in this area will improve.It is difficult to be general about London. The city is made up of a collection of villages”, each area with its own character and community. Put them all together, and you have London, an international capital.28. Which of the following descriptions about Square Mile is NOT true?A. It is the oldest part of London.B. It is the center of London.C. All financial business was once done there.D. 300, 000 people live there.29. Tom, an American, wants to go shopping in London. He had better go to .A. the East End B. the West EndC. the Port of London D. the Square Mile30. According to the passage, Harrods is .A. a department store B. a residential areaC. a famous square D. a small village31. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A. The East End is richer than other parts of London.B. There must be many ships in the East End.C. People living in the East End have good housing.D. Most Londoners are satisfied with their government.【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. B【解析】本文为说明文。文章介绍了伦敦的构成及各部分的大致情况。【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的Not many people live here, but 300,000 people work here every day可知，不是很多人住在这里，但是每天有30万人在这里工作。D项“30万人住在这里”与原文不符。故D选项正确。【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中的Moving west, we come to the West End. This busy shopping and entertainment district is bursting with things to do.可知，伦敦西区是繁忙的购物和娱乐区。故B选项正确。【30题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中的Take a walk down Oxford Street, and you will see big department stores like Selfridges and Harrods.（沿着牛津街散步，你会看到像塞尔福里奇百货公司和哈罗德百货公司这样的大百货公司。）可知，Harrods是一家百货公司。故A选项正确。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段中的The East End contains the Port of London, which historically is where many immigrants first arrived.（伦敦东区是伦敦港，从历史上看，这里是许多移民最先到达的地方。）可推知，伦敦东区一定有很多船。故B选项正确。DHave you ever had a science class that you look forward to? It doesnt happen often. But when you have a teacher like Mrs. Field, its more than a science class. Its a science class where learning is easy and fun. There is no getting down to a huge textbook or listening to a teacher about something you dont care about.My experience with Mrs. Field didnt start with science class, but with her as my tutor. I was always a weak reader and wasnt getting any better. My parents told me I needed to be tutored. One day after school, I went into the library with my mom for my first tutoring time. I had no idea who was tutoring m
