A film crew was at the Circle Five Ranch to film a Marlboro commercial. This was in 1868, before they prohibited cigarette ads from American television. Darrell Winfield was watching the crew set up the equipment. The scene included an actor crossing a river on horseback, but when the time came to shoot, the man was too drunk to ride. Someone from the crew saw Winfield and asked him if he would ride the horse for 50 dollars. "Hell," said Winfield, "for 50 bucks, I'll jump that damn horse over the moon!"To people in many countries, Winfield is just a familiar but nameless face, a simple cowboy with an advertising message about a connection between the West and a brand of cigarettes. Few people know that he is 55, a family man who's been married to the same woman for 37 years and has 5 children and 7 grandchildren. Most surprisingly, he's a real, working cowboy who raises horses in his ranch in Wyoming.One of the most striking things about the Marlboro Man is that success hasn't changed him much. He says that complete strangers sometimes come up to him and say, "I've met you,know you from somewhere. "Whenever it happens, he says that he gets embarrassed.(1)、Marlboro commercials were allowed on television in America before 1868.A：TB：F答案：A(2)、The word "prohibited" in the first paragraph mean "forbidden".A：TB：F答案：A(3)、When they filmed the ad, Winfield was too drunk.A：TB：F答案：B(4)、From the passage, we know that Winfield was a rich man.A：TB：F(5)、When people recognized Winfield, he felt uncomfortable.A：TB：F答案：ALast Friday a storm tore through two villages in the New Territories destroying fourteen homes. Seven others were so badly damaged that their owners had to leave them, and fifteen others had broken windows or torn roofs. One person was killed, several were badly injured and taken to hospital, and a number of other people received smaller injuries. Altogether over two hundred people were homeless as a result of the storm.A farmer, Mr. C. Y. Tan, said that the storm began early in the morning and lasted for over an hour."I was in the kitchen with my wife and children," he said, "when we heard a loud noise. A few minutes later our house fell down on top of us, we managed to climb out but then I saw that one of my children was missing. I went back inside and found him, safe but very frightened."Mrs. Woo Mei Fong said that her husband had just left for work when she noticed that her house was shaking. She rushed outside immediately with her children."There was no time to take anything," she said. "A few minutes later, the roof came down."Soldiers helped to bring people out of the flooded area and the Welfare Department provided food, clothes and shelter.(1)、Some of the people were taken to hospital because they had been badly injured.A：TB：F答案：A(2)、When the storm first began, Mr. Tan was inside his house.A：TB：F(3)、When Mr. Tan's house fell down, only one of his children was inside it.A：TB：F答案：A(4)、Mrs. Woo and her family escaped injury because her husband had gone to work.A：TB：F答案：B(5)、The best title for the passage would be "A Terrible Storm."A：TB：F答案：AIn 1933 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney's cartoon（动画片）film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash's voice, he said,"Stop! That's our duck!"The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the film The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight-minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy, and because he lost his temper very quickly. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey's eight nephews. Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn't a goody-goody like Mickey.In the 1930s, 40s and 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared---there were no more new cartoons.Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today's children can still see the old cartoons on television and hear that famous voice.(1)、Walt Disney made Donald Duck film.A：TB：F答案：A(2)、The first Donald Duck film was made in 1934.A：TB：F答案：A(3)、Clarence Nash was a film-maker.A：TB：F答案：B(4)、The underlined word "audience" in the second paragraph means readers.A：TB：F答案：B(5)、The underlined word "goody-goody" in the second paragraph means a person who likes to appear to be faultless in behavior.A：TB：F答案：A全套完整题库，全中文翻译内容，复习更方便，考前独家提供简化版本，助您快速通过，全程免费答疑。

By understanding how E-mail works, and by takingsome steps in how you deal with reading and writing messages, you can keep this threat out of your computer. When you exchange E-mail with someone else, the messages sent between you and that person pass through several computers before they reach their places. Imagine this conversation as it is taking place in a n Internet “room”, a very, very big room. Anyone, or more exactly, any program can probably understand what is being said, because most Internet conversations are not hidden in any way. As a result, others may be listening in, capturing what you send, and using it for their own good.E-mail-borne viruses often arrive in attractive, fantastic appearances, much like the beautiful ads we receive by way of traditional mail that is made to sell us something. By beautiful appearances, an infected (感染) E-mail message seems to be something we want to read from someone we know, not a mean virus ready to destroy or damage our computers.There are some steps that you can take to help you decide what to do with every E-mail message with an attachment (附件) that you receive. You should only read a message that passes all of these tests:1) The Know Test: Is the E-mail from someone that you know?2) The Received Test: Have you received E-mail from this sender before?3) The Expected Test: Were you waiting for E-mail with an attachment from this sender?4) The Meaning Test: Do the topic line of the E-mail message and the name of the attachment both have meanings?5) The Virus Test: Is the E-mail infected?1. Which of the following is the main idea in the first paragraph?A. We should not exchange our E-mail with someone else.B. It is dangerous to read and write E-mail messages at home.C.

A 3.D 4.BPassage 3A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly（肚子）or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. Andmost great artists who really know their business do not follow other people’s rule. They maketheir own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easyto work in that way.Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学). And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced(有经验的) enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail --that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.1. A friend of the writer’s drew the horses ____.A. very wellB. in the way of western ruleC. in the way of his own ruleD. all of the above2.

Where do you come from?” he asked. “I come from New York.” “New York! ” said the taxi-driver, “I have a sister in New York. Her name is Susannah. Do you know her?” “Of course I know her.

They can help people a lot in their everyday life. For example, they can help people save much time, and they can help people work out many problemsthey can’t do easily. Our country asks everyone to learn to use computers, except the old people.Today more and more families own computers. Parents buy computers for their children. They hope computers can help them improve their studies in school. Yet many of the children use computers to play games, to watch video or to sing Karaoke, instead of studying.

It marks the unofficial end of summer and a traditional signal that school is about to start.But now public schools often begin sometime during August. They have different reasons for starting early.The Tucson Unified School District in Arizona began classes on August eleventh. Communications Director Chyrl Hill Lander says the earlier start time makes it possible for students to take semester（学期）exams before winter vacation in December. She says the school district also wants to follow a calendar similar to that of the nearby University of Arizona.Many schools in Virginia still open the day after Labor Day. But the public schools in Montgomery County, in the southwestern part of Virginia, began classes on August twentieth. Human Resources Director Mark Pashier says his county has been opening schools in August for at least the past eight years.The main reason, he says, is the tests that schoolchildren inVirginia take every spring. School officials want the students to have the most time to prepare for them -- which means starting the year before Labor Day.6.When is the American Labor Day?答案：the first Monday in September7.

Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high." Leontyne Price sings the song.The nineteen fifties and sixties produced many songs about teenagers enjoying their summer vacation from school.

At the other end they’ll tell you how much you have to pay.”“I soon learned that’s how everything works in America,” the grandfather told a friend. “Life is like a cafeteria here.

He often missed classes because he had to work, but one day he designed a very unusual show-case for an exhibition in Paris. People began to give him work. He designed houses, offices and gardens. They were all very unusual. He was soon rich and famous. Then a rich bookseller said, "Will you build a church for the poor people of Barcelona? I will pay. I will build schools and workshops, too. They will help the people.""I will do it," said Gaudi. He worked for forty years, but he could not finish the church. It was too big. He needed $10,000,000. He gave all his money to the church. He was poor again when he died in 1926, and only the front of the church was finished. But architects, engineers and tourists from all over the world come to see it.

When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth hot, but it cannot make the weather very hot. Although, the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth rises.Then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel the cool air when it moves in .You feel the wind, and the wind makes you feel cool.Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask, “Why is the ocean full of salt?” scientis ts will say that the salt comes form rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks. Rain falls into the cracks. The rain then carries the salt into the earth and into the rivers. The rivers carry the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What h appens to the salt in the ocean? The ocean does not get mo re salty every year.” Scientists are not sure about the answer o this question.We know a lot about our world. But there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious.6. The main idea of the passage is ____________.A. people feel cool when they are near a lake or an oceanB. scientists can explain everything we want to knowC. scientists can explain many things except one thingD. the salt in the ocean comes from rocks7.

People are always curious about the world around them because ___________.A. they know nothing about itB. they know little about itC. there are answers they do not haveD. there are a lot of interesting stories about itPassage TwoIf you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak, when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means thathe does not give it enough chance to become strong.If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parent may be blamed, and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember thing, they cannot write them down in a small notebook. They have to remember days, names songs and stories, so their memory is the whole time being exercises.So if you want to have a good memory, learn from people ; practices remembering things in a way as other people do.6. Someone can’t have a good memory if ________.A. he can’t read or writeB.he doesn’t use his memoryC. his parents haven’t a good memoryD. he doesn’t use his arms or legs for some time7.

The writer wants to tell us ___________.A. how to use our arms or legsB. how to have strong armsC. how to have a good memoryD. how to learn from the peoplePassage ThreeA million tourists go to Barcelona every year. They want to see Antonio Gaude’s church. This un usual church has a strange history. Gaude was born in Spain in 1852. He had to work and study at the same time.

You have to sit down and write a thank-you note. The words “Thank you” are very important. We have to use themon so many occasions. We say them when someone gives us a drink, helps us to pick up things, hands us a letter, lends us book or gives us a gift.Another imp ortant word is “please”. Many people forget to use it. It is rude to ask someone to do something without saying “please”. We have to use it when we ask for something, too. It may be a book or a pencil, more rice or more sauce, help or advice. It may be in the classroom , at home, at the bus-stop or over the counter. We have to use “please” to make our request pleasant.We have to learn to say “sorry” too. When we have hurt som eone’s feeling, we will have to go up and say we are sorry. When we have told a lie and feel sorry, we will have to use the same word. When we have forgotten something or broken a promise, we will have to explain with that word, too. “Sorry” is a healing word.

It was found that the snow was mixed with ashes. T完整资料请联系QQ1479940435his made it look dark. Red snow had come down in other countries. When this happened, the snow was mixed with red dust.Most snow looks white, but it is really the color of ice. Snow is ice that comes from snow cloud. Each snowflake begins with a small drop of frozen water. More water forms around this drop. The way the water freezes gives the snowflakes its shape.No two snowflakes are ever just the same size or shape. Sometimes the snowflakes are broken when they come down. Other snowflakes melt as they fall. All snowflakes are flat and have six sides, if they a完整资料请联系QQ1479940435re not broken or melted. When the air is cold and dry, the falling snowflakes are small and hard. If the air wet and warm, the snowflakes are big and soft.Would you be surprised to see snowflakes as big as your head falling from the sky? It happened once in the United States. It could happen again.雪花看起来像从天上掉下白色星星，但有好几次雪看起来是红的，绿的，或黑的，几乎有所有颜色的雪花。

阅读理解1. When I begin to look back on all friends whom I have had, I quickly came to the conclusion that Jerry was the most important and had the greatest effect upon my life. His family moved to my block when I was only 10. Jerry was 15 at the time, but the fact that he was so much older than me seemed to make no difference to him. I was very glad that he liked me. We took long walks together, on which he would tell me stories he had heard form TV and radio programs.But as months went by, a change came into our friendship. Jerry almost stopped coming by the house, and every time I went to his house or telephoned, he put me off with some excuses such as “I'm studying now” or “I've got some jobs to do for Mum”. When we passed on the street, he would still give me a warm smile and friendly wave with a “Hi, kid”, but he would hardly ever stop to talk. Finally I realized that he was no longer interested in me and that his taste had changed.I noticed him with a girl once in a while and several times saw him going out in his family's car on a Friday or Saturday night. I simply couldn't understand what was so great about girls and parties.But I was hurt when he finally made me know that our friendship was at an end. Of course he didn't really mean to hurt me, but it was a long time before I realized that it was an age problem that caused the break.

One day in 1965, when I was a library worker at school, a teacher came to me. She had a student who finished his work before all the others and needed something more difficult for him to do. “Could you help me in the library?” she asked. I said, “Send him along.”Soon, a golden-haired boy appeared. “Do you have a job for me?” he asked. I told him about a system for sorting books. He picked up the idea immediately. Then I showed him some cards for some unreturned books that I thought had been returned but not recorded. Maybe some books were put on wrong places. He said, “Is it a kind of a detective （侦探） job?” I answered yes, and then began his work.He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and said, “Time for rest!” he argued for finishing the finding job, but the teacher won.The next morning, he arrived early, “I want to finish these books,” he said. At the end of the day, when he asked to work with me more often, it was easy for me to say yes.After a few weeks I found a note on my desk, inviting me to dinner at the boy's home. At the end of a pleasant evening, his mother declared that the family would be moving to another school. Her son's first concern, she said, was leaving the library. “Who will find the lost books?”he asked. When the time came, it was hard to say goodbye. Though at the beginning he had seemed an ordinary boy, his strong feeling of interest had made him different.Do you know who he is? This boy became a great man of the Information Age: Bill Gates.(1).Why did the teacher go to the library to find a job for Bill Gates?答案(C)A. Because the teacher found the librarian quite busy.B.

In 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernardino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a BBQ restaurant, then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips. Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks' sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers' fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise（特许经营）other copies of their restaurants. The agreement included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches （拱门）.Today McDonald's is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to order fifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976, McDonald's had over $ 1 billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.(1).We may infer from this passage that _______.答案(D)A.

Ray Kroc's business talent(5).Mac and Dick managed all of the following businesses except _______.答案(B)A. a drive-inB. a cinemaC. a theaterD. a BBQ restaurant4. No one knows who made the first ice cream. Some people think that water ices and milk ices may have been made by the Chinese between three thousand and four thousand years ago. In time, the dish reached India. The Indians, in turn, may have passed on the secret to the Arabs and Persians. The Persians called their dish Sharbat, from which our word sherbet（冰冻果子露） comes. Marco Polo, an Italian who traveled widely in the thirteenth century, noted that he found the Chinese had long been making ices out of fruit juices and milk. From the fourteenth century on, ices became popular, first in Venice and then throughout Italy.In 1533, when Catherine de Medicis left Italy to marry the future King Henry Ⅱof France, she took her cooks with her. They made desserts the French had never tasted before. Among them was “ice cream”. For each day of the wedding festivities Catherine's cooks prepared a different flavor of her favorite dessert-“ice cream.”At first ice cream was a luxury in France. Only rich people had money to buy it. Then, in 1660, a young man from Sicily, Francisco Procopio, arrived in Paris. He opened a shop that sold ice cream at prices people could afford. Procopio's“ice-cream parlor ” became so popular that other shops were opened.About 1640, King Charles I introduced ice cream to England. He had heard it was popular in Italy and France. He served ice cream for dessert at a banquet. The surprise dish was a great success. The King ordered his cook to keep the recipe for ice cream a secret. Charles felt that only royalty should serve the dessert. But the secret soon leaked out. Ice cream quickly became popular in England too.(1).Ice cream was unknown in France until ________.答案(A)A. 1533B. 1660C. 1640D. 1774(2).Ice cream was introduced to England by ________.答案(C)A.

We say that a person has good manners if he or she behaves politely and is kind and helpful to others. Everyone likes a person with good manners but no one likes a person with bad manners. “Yes”, you may say , “ but what are good manners? How do I know what to do and what not to do?”People all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helping others, especially to those older or weaker than ourselves. If you remember this, you will not go very far wrong.Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered person does or does not do.He never laughs at people when they are in trouble.Instead, he tries to help them. He is always kind, never cruel, either to people or to animals. When people are waiting for a bus, or in a post office, he takes his turn.He does not push to the front of the queue. In the bus, he gives his seat to an old person or a lady who is standing. If he accidentally bumps into someone, or gets in their way, he says, “excuse me” or “I'm sorry”.He says “please” when making a request, and “thank you” when he receives something. He stands up when speaking to a lady or an older person, and he does not sit down until the other person is seated. He does not interrupt other people when they are talking. He does not talk too much himself. He does not talk loudly or laugh loudly in public. When eating, he does not speak with his mouth full of food.

Our child's behavior is greatly influenced by the way we react to what he has done. Our reactions help to determine whether our child will repeat his behavior or whether he will do something different. This statement is a very important part of a principle of behavioral psychology. The principle states that a behavior is influenced or affected by how the environment ---- people, places and things ---- immediately responds to the behavior. Perhaps without realizing it, you have used this principle many times.On the occasion when you told your child what a good boy he was after he cleaned up his room, you used the principle. When you sent your child to his room for fighting with his brother, you used the principle. When I gave Kim a cookie after she started to cry, I used the principle. In each of these examples, a particular behavior occurred first ---- cleaning up a room, fighting, and crying.In addition, there was a reaction to each behavior ---- the child was praised, sent to his room, or given a cookie. By these actions, we have influenced the previous behaviors and have helped to determine whether those behaviors will occur again in the future.(1).What is the lecture mainly about?答案(C)A. Children and environmental protection.B. Children's behavior and fighting.C. Children's behavior and our response.D. Children and principles.(2).On what kind of principle is the lecture based?答案(B)A. A principle in chemistry.B. A principle in behavioral psychology.C. A principle in physics.D. A principle in geology.(3).Who do you think the audience at this lecture might be?答案(D)A. Teachers.B. Doctors.C. Social workers.D. Parents.(4).According to the lecture, why was the child sent to his room?答案(A)A. As a kind of punishment.B. As a kind of reward.C. As an experiment on the principle.D. As an example of the principle.(5).What does the lecturer mean by "environment"?答案(C)A. Rooms, cookies and toys.B. Water, air and forest.C. People, places and things.D. Family, school and friends.8. If you've been joining in chat room conversations, or trading e-mail with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are "talking" online ─ many of them are talking at the same time.It's fast: trying talking to six people once. It's convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There's neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious time telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB (=be right back) will do?Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (=pardon me for jumping in).Interested in whom you're talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal's age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you're OTF (=on the floor), or LOL (=laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTFL (=rolling on the floor laughing).And when it's time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got to go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feeling, as it takes more time to hold down the "shift" key and use capitals. Punctuation is going too.(1).When people are online, they talk by ______.答案(D)A. using body languageB. drawing some strange picturesC. making phone callsD. making use of an especially short form of English(2).The Internet makes many people in the world ______.答案(A)A. talking at the same timeB. discover their friends and relativesC. pick out good things to buyD. find out about some problems in society(3).The sentence “There's neither time nor space for explanations” means that ______.答案(C)A. people should use words properlyB. people should know what time it is when they are talkingC. people online have to express themselves in a simple wayD. people should communicate in a funny way(4).If you get 19/M/HK as an answer to your A/S/L, it means ______.答案(B)A. the person who is talking to you is 19 from Hong Kong and he is highB. you are talking to a boy 19 years old and he lives in Hong KongC. you are talking to 19 boys from Hong Kong at the same timeD. the boy from Hong Kong has been online for 19 minutes(5).Which of the following is a way to save online time?答案(A)A.

Until 1983, Tillson Lake had been a lovely weekend and vacation place for many families. Then everything changed. During the Fourth of July weekend, residents woke up one morning to find that the lake had disappeared.Some people didn't believe what they were seeing. They looked again, but to their amazement they found they had been right the first time. The lake was simply no longer there. In its place was a big muddy hole, 30 feet deep. It was as if the lake had been a giant bathtub and someone had pulled the plug.The lake's owner, Joseph Unanue, did indeed pull the plug. That's exactly what happened. The dam that held back the water to form the lake was falling apart, so government officials ordered him to repair it. They issued him a permit to lower the dam level “five feet or more.”He did much more. Mr. Unanue found repairs to the dam would cost $100,000. He didn't want to spend that much, so he opened the dam and lowered the water level until the lake was completely emptied. People living above the dam ended up with no lake. People living below the dam ended up with tons of mud and lots of dead fish. Everyone involved was angry with Mr. Unanue.Area residents believed Mr. Unanue acted out of spite（恶意）. They said he wanted to get back at them because the town wouldn't let him develop an amusement park on the lakeshore. When he couldn't build his park, he just went away and took his lake with him.(1).The lake was compared to a bathtub because _________. 答案(D)A. it was in the shape of a bathtubB. the water was warm and cleanC. people got clean in itD. it could be emptied out(2).Mr.Unanue emptied out the lake because __________. 答案(C)A. the lake was too fullB. he got a permit to do soC. he didn't want to fix the damD. the fish were all dying(3).Neighbors think Mr. Unanue is _________. 答案(D)A. a man difficult to understandB. well within his fightsC. tired of swimmingD. a bad man with ill will(4).The situation could be changed by __________. 答案(A)A. repairing the damB. planting some treesC. buying some new boatsD. cleaning up the dead fish(5).The story is mainly about _________. 答案(B)A. a lake that everyone likedB. a bad-tempered man and his lakeC. a lake that had be repairedD. people who lived near a lake10. Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history, greater than what only a few other men have achieved. An American university president once commented that Einstein had created a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so on-but even ordinary men understand now that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.By 1914 the young Einstein had gained world fame. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited opportunities for study, but soon his peace and quiet were broken by the First World War.Einstein hated violence. The misery of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.In the years following World War I honors were increasingly heaped on him. He became the head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921 he won the Noble Prize, and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.(1).The main idea of Paragraph 1 is ______.答案(C)A. the time when people know EinsteinB. the feeling of an American college presidentC. the change in human thought produced by EinsteinD. the difficulty of Einstein's thought to teachers(2).According to the American university president, ______.答案(D)A. everyone understands Einstein's theory todayB.
