36、ory of Time，sold ten million copies and made him an unlikely superstar even to people who sweated through high school science.Humor was always a big part of Hawkings effort to bring physics to the masses.In his 2010 book，The Grand Design，for instance，he recounts how，in 1277，the Catholic Church decla

37、red scientific laws such as gravity to be wrong，since they seemed against Gods idea.“Interestingly，”the text adds jokingly，“Pope John was killed by the effects of the law of gravity a few months later when the roof of his palace fell in on him.”Hawking was only 21 when he was diagnosed with the dise

41、 yet.“Maybe one day someone living in the future will find the information and use a wormhole time machine to come back to my party，proving that time travel will one day be possible，”Hawking explained.And if that happens，dont be surprised if Hawking is there too.After all，he never missed a chance to

45、 than their gasoline-powered cousins.People in California love to talk about “zero-emissions(排放) vehicles”, but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from. Power plants mostly use fire to make it. Aside from the new folks who have their roofs covered with solar cells

46、, we get our electricity from generators(发电机). Generators are fueled by something-usually coal, oil, but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms and geothermal plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.In other words, those zero-emis

47、sions cars are likely coal-burning cars. Its just because the coal is burned somewhere else, it looks clean. It is not. Its as if the California Greens are covering their eyes“If I cant see it, its not happening.” Gasoline is an incredibly efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot

48、of energy in it. But when you take that gas (or another fuel) and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heatat the generator, through the transmission lines, etc.A gallon of gas may propel your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get f

50、much of those energy sources.In addition, electric cars batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill. And finally, when cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread across all the roads. When its a power plant, though, all the junk is in one place. Nature is

51、very good at cleaning up when things are too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot.1、What does “clueless” mean in paragraph 2?APeople see the California Greens everywhere.BPeople there have no idea that so far electricity mainly comes from burning coal, oil, etc
