time.born of jewish parents in germany，he completed his education in switzerland and got his phd at the university of zurich.he went to live in the united states in 1933 because of the rise of nazism (纳粹) in germany and hitlers persecution (迫害) of the jews.in 1905，while still at zurich，he published his special theory of relativity，which was based on things everyone may have noticed.if two trains are standing alongside each other and one train starts to move，a person sitting in the train may wonder whether his own train is moving or the other is moving，and before he finds out what is happening，he can see that one train is moving relatively to the other.from this and also from other more complicated facts，einstein came to the conclusion that all motion is relative and that there are really no such things as absolute (绝对) motion.some of the other conclusions he drew are that nothing can go faster than light，and that if something such as a ruler was moving faster and faster it would seem to get shorter and shorter as its speed was near the speed of light.by 1915，einstein had made known his general theory of relativity.he also improved on newtons theory of gravity.most of his theories have been tested and found to be true though some may sound strange.for his important work he was awarded the 1921 nobel prize for physics.56in 1933，einstein went to live in the united states because _.ahe loved the usa more than his own countrybhe had got some friends there with whom he could work togetherche wanted to live quietly in the usadhe could no longer work in germany when hitler came into power57einstein published his special theory of relativity when he was _.ain the united statesbin ulm，germany after he got his phdcstill in switzerland at the age of twentysixdstill at the university of zurich at the age of thirtysix58one of the conclusions drawn by einstein is that _.aplanes go faster than trains and busesbpeople couldnt run as fast as vehiclesclight goes the fastest of all the thingsdtwo trains can go in different directions59. einstein was worldfamous for his _.aspecial theory of relativitybgeneral theory of relativitycimproving on newtons theory of gravitydall of the aboveba list of benjamin franklins inventions reveals a man of many talents and interests.his natural curiosity about things and the way they work made him try to find ways to make them work better.ben had poor vision and needed glasses to read.he got tired of constantly taking them off and putting them back on，so he decided to figure out how his glasses would let him see both near and far.he had two pairs of glasses cut in half and put half of each lens (镜片) in a single frame.today，we call them bifocals (双光眼镜)everyone knows the story of bens famous kite flight.although he made important discoveries and advancements，ben did not “invent” the electricity.he did，however，invent the lightning rod which protects buildings and ships from lightning.in colonial america，most people warmed their homes by building a fire in a fireplace even though it was dangerous and used a lot of wood.ben figured that there had to be a better way.his invention of an iron furnace stove allowed people to warm their homes less dangerously and with less wood.the furnace stove that he invented is called the franklin stove.interestingly enough，ben also established the first fire company and the first fire insurance company in order to help people live more safely.as a postmaster，ben had to figure out routes for delivering the mail.he went out riding in his carriage to measure the routes and needed a way to keep track of the distance.he invented a simple odometer (里程表) and attached it to his carriage.later，other famous inventors，like thomas alva edison and alexander graham bell，followed in bens footsteps by trying to find ways to help people live better.60how many things invented by benjamin franklin are mentioned in the passage?a3. b4. c5. d6.61what do we know about the franklin stove?ait is made of iron and easy to carry.bit is much safer and can save wood.cit is much smaller than the traditional stove.dit reaches the requirements of the fire company.62which of the following statements is true according to the passage?afranklin invented the bifocals because of his poor vision.bfranklin invented the odometer to make his riding easier.cfranklin first invented the electricity and then the lightning rod.dfranklin invented the odometer when he worked in a post office.63what would be the best title for this passage?athe life of benjamin franklinbbenjamin franklin，a great inventorca man of many talents and interestsdhow to help people live betterchawking has a motor neurone (运动神经元) disease that is related to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (als)，a condition that has progressed over the years.he can hardly move any parts of his body.his illness has progressed more slowly than typical cases of als：its uncommon for someone who suffers from als to survive more than 10 years.signs of the disorder first appeared as soon as he arrived at the university of cambridge.he lost his balance and fell down a flight of stairs，hitting his head.worried that he would lose his mental abilities，hawking took a test to check whether his thinking abilities were affected.doctors discovered that he had a motor neurone disease in 1963，shortly before his first marriage，and they said he would not survive more than two or three years.by 1974，he was unable to feed himself or get out of bed.his speech became unclear and he could be understood only by people who knew him well.in 1985，hawking suffered from pneumonia (肺炎)，which in his condition was lifethreatening.he had an emergency operation and lost his remaining ability to speak.a speech generating system was built at the university of cambridge，using software from an american company.the system enables hawking to write onto a computer with small movements of his body，and then has a voice synthesizer (合成器) speak what he has typed.for lectures and media appearances，hawking appears to speak fluently through his synthesizer.however，when preparing answers his system produces words at a rate of about one per minute.as he is only able to use his cheek to put in information，constructing complete sentences takes time.during a conference talk，it took him seven minutes to provide a brief answer to a question.he describes himself as lucky，despite his disease.its slow progression has allowed him time to make influential discoveries and has not prevented him from having a very attractive family.64after falling down stairs，hawking took a test to find out _.awhether his leg was seriously injuredbwhether he was as smart as beforecwhat he should do to be healthydwhat had caused his problems65what is the right time order of the following events in hawkings life?ahe fell down a flight of stairs.bhe suffered from pneumonia.che couldnt eat by himself.dhe lost his speaking ability completely.ehe got married for the first time.aacdbe badceb caecbd dacbde66what can we know about the speech system hawking uses?ait was built by an american company.bit enables him to speak fluently in his daily life.cit takes a long time for him to prepare an answer with it.dhawking can construct a sentence with it easily.67whats the passage mainly about?ahawkings career. bhawkings education.chawkings illness. dhawkings family.dat the liberty science center in new jersey，kids can learn about science in a fun and exciting atmosphere.science educator lisa silverman showed a group of students how surgery is performed.as she guided the children through the operation，she also taught lessons about infections (感染)，the roles of the operating room staff and the kinds of schooling one needs to be a surgeon.education experts call this “informal” or “freechoice” science learning，since it takes place outside of the school setting.the national academies will publish a report about the learning of science in such informal settings，including such places as museums，zoos and aquariums (水族馆)the report is meant to address the lack of scientific education among americans.many are afraid there will be a shortfall in homegrown engineers and scientists to keep the nation competitive，and a general workforce illequipped to function in an increasingly hightech world.experts believe science museums can play a big role in teaching and promoting science to both children and adults.the liberty science center expects about 850,000 guests this year.visitors can walk along a high steel beam in the skyscraper exhibit or practice laboratory experiments.kids and their parents are welcome to ask as many questions as they like.for many students，the experience is as important as any technical or book lesson，because the information can be related to their families，friends and，most of all，themselves.“the value of science museums is that they allow families to learn together，and even about each other，”says oregon state university researcher john falk.“parents may discover that a daughter is interested in engineering after a trip to a museum.”sue allen，who studies museum learning at san franciscos exploratori
