But outstanding astrophysicist(天体物理学家) Stephen Hawking has admitted that he did not learn to read until he was eight years old.In a public lecture at the Royal Albert Hall, Professor Hawking also admitted that he was not active in studying while at Oxford University, where he studied physics, and that only the diagnosis that he might die young from motor neuron(神经元) disease made him concentrate on his work.Professor Hawking said, “My sister Philippa could read by the age of 4 but then she was definitely brighter than me.” He said that he was unexceptional at school and was never further than halfway up his class. “My classwork was very untidy, and my handwriting was the despair of my teachers，” he said. “But my classmates gave me the nickname Einstein, so presumably they saw signs of something better.”But he said that it was when doctors told him that he probably only had a few years to live at the age of 21 that galvanized(刺激) him into focusing on his work and a period of productivity that resulted in some of his early breakthroughs. He said, “When you are faced with the possibility of an early death, it makes you realize that life is worth living and there are lots of things you want to do.”1Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Stephen Hawking is the second Einstein in the world.B. Stephen Hawking couldnt read at the age of 7.C. Stephen Hawkings handwriting was once terribly bad.D. Stephen Hawkings sister once performed much better than him.答案与解析：A细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“But my classmates gave me the nickname Einstein, so presumably they saw signs of something better.”可知绰号“爱因斯坦”是同学给起的，但并不意味着他就是第二个爱因斯坦。故A不符合题意。2We can infer that Stephen Hawking was _ when he was a child and studied in Oxford University.A. clever B. lazyC. bright D. mean答案与解析：B推理判断题。根据第一段特别是“But outstanding astrophysicist Stephen Hawking has admitted that he did not learn to read until he was eight years old.”和第二段开头霍金自己承认的话中可知，他小时候和在大学里是非常懒惰的。3What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Stephen Hawking didnt realize his dreams in physics.B. It was possible for Hawking to face the early death.C. The purpose of the doctors diagnosis was to encourage him to work hard.D. His life might be taken away by long hard work.答案与解析：B主旨大意题。根据最后一段特别是信息句He said, “When you are faced with the possibility of an early death, it makes you realize that life is worth living and there are lots of things you want to do.”可知他有可能要面对英年早逝的不幸事实，故选B项。4From whom did Hawking get a relatively just respect when he was at school?A. His sister. B. His classmates.C. His teachers. D. His parents.答案与解析：B细节理解题。根据第三段最后霍金的话可知，尽管老师不看好他，同学们仍给他“爱因斯坦”的绰号，他们从他身上看到好的一面。BYou may be fascinated with pictures of animals in the wild. You might have imagined yourself taking pictures of animals that are rarely seen in the city. If you do get that chance, you may want to consider the following tips or rules.First of all, a lot of professional photographers give respect to these animals and the environment they are in. Just remember that you should respect the animals and the environment in case these animals bite or hurt you.Keep in mind that you are taking pictures of real，live, wild animals. A wild animal may bite to protect itself. You must be sensitive while taking their pictures and be gentle in all your movements. Do not feed the animals, or interact with animals that are sleeping or caring for their young.If you are going to a place where it is privately(私人) owned, youd better get the owners permission first before you start taking pictures.Change the flash of your camera to natural light, so the animals will not be frightened or surprised when you start shooting. Animals do not react well when they are surprised.Be very patient. Make sure you are aware of the changes in behavior of the animal and its moods. Be familiar with the animals natural habitat.Now if those rules are clear, it is time for planning. Consider the weather; some animals do not go out when it is raining while some animals love the rain. Therefore, a little research on the weather will not hurt. You should consider taking pictures after sunrise and before sunset. Now if the animal is nocturnal(夜间活动的), then you should prepare to battle not only the wild but also the darkness.An adventure in the wild will make you very excited. However, you should be well equipped，have experts to back you up, and also a permit for doing the photo shoot. If you do not have any of these, then maybe you should consider visiting the zoo instead.5The main purpose of the author in writing this passage is _.A. to call for us to protect animalsB. to show where to buy pictures of animalsC. to explain how to get along with wild animalsD. to give us tips on taking pictures of animals in the wild答案与解析：D写作意图题。本文主要是告诉大家在给野生动物拍照时应该注意的问题。6If the animals are on a farm owned by a person, we should _.A. ask the owner to take pictures for usB. ask for the owners permission firstC. make sure the owner is present when we take picturesD. take pictures when the owner is feeding animals答案与解析：B细节理解题。根据文章第四段youd better get the owners permission first before you start taking pictures可知选B。7We can infer from the passage that _.A. most animals love being taken pictures ofB. we have to finish the pictures before sunsetC. wed better take pictures when the animals are sleepingD. we should pay attention to the animals moods when taking pictures答案与解析：D细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段Make sure you are aware of the changes in behavior of the animal and its moods.可知答案。8What preparation should you do before going to take pictures of wild animals?Preparing some food to feed the animals.Asking experts for advice.Knowing the weather in the animals habitat.Getting a permission for taking pictures of wild animals.A. B. C. D. 答案与解析：B细节理解题。根据文章第四段及最后两段可知去给野生动物拍照前最好预先得到拍照许可，考虑到那里的天气情况，得到专家的支持；而文中第三段说到Do not feed the animals，可知不允许私自喂野生动物，所以也没必要为其准备食物。.短文改错The environment pollution is more and more seriously today.
