Before you read it, let me tell you something about its author, Stephen Hawking.Hawking is perhaps the most well-known scientist since Einstein. Like Einstein his work tackles the big questions, questions such as How did the universe begin? Why is the universe the way it is? and How will it end? He is now working on what is sometimes known as the 'theory of everything.' Among other things, this promises to explain what caused the Big Bang that started the universe.But it is not simply the power of Hawking's mind that has led to his fame. For what many people find most striking about him is the contrast between the strength of his mind and the weakness of his body. For for many years Hawking has suffered from an illness that has left him unable to move and to speak normally.Born in England in 1942, Hawking had a normal childhood, and it was not until he was a student at university that his illness started to affect him. Hospital tests showed he was suffering from a disease that weakens control over the muscles. The disease gets worse with time and there is no known cure. But Hawking did not lose heart. As he says, "although there was a cloud hanging over my future, I found, to my surprise, that I was enjoying life more than before. I began to make progress with my research, and I got engaged to a girl called Jane Wilde. That engagement changed my life. It gave me something to live for."Hawking started research at Cambridge and went on to hold the same post that another great scientist, Newton, once held. Over the years his condition has worsened, but even when he finally lost the ability to speak, he managed to get round the problem. He now uses a computer that enables him to select words which are then turned into speech. "The only trouble," the English scientist says, "is that it gives me an American accent!"- 102 -Appendix IPart II Text AText Organization2. 1) The importance of the teaching of science in schools. 2) The role mass media can play, especially what television can do.Vocabularyinquired in terms of tend precise grasped sufficientconvey in two mindsWinning the match today has ensured their team a place in the Cup Final.

Computers, for example, have provided some with the comfort of working from home while at the same time throwing others out of work as their jobs are automated. In the future changes are likely to be even much greater as science reaches out to shape life itself. New organisms (有机体) are already being engineered. New genetically modified crops promise benefits from higher yields and less use of harmful chemicals.But once again we cannot be sure that science will only change our lives for the better. The possibility remains that some modern Frankenstein may carelessly or deliberately let loose a new and- 106-Appendix Idangerous form of life. However, we should have sufficient faith in the good sense of the public to believe that we could prevent this from happening.(146 words)Unit 4Part I Pre-reading TaskScript for the recording:What you are about to hear is an interview with Dr Lee Hertz, the director of a scientific laboratory in Stanford University, California.Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Interviewer: Dr. Hertz: Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Interviewer:What does the expression the American Dream mean to you?I guess in one way it's the dream of my grandparents. They turned their backs on poverty in Poland and set out with high hopes for a new life in America.So the American Dream means getting out of poverty?Then it did. However, when they got to America, they realized that the dream wasn't going to happen, that the streets were not paved with gold and they had to struggle to make a living. So the dream became the chance for their children to succeed.Through?Through hard work and giving their kids an education. They thought that througheducation their children would have the choice of doing what they wanted. That basically life could be what you made it.And do you believe that?Well, America does give some people the opportunity to be what they want to be.Why just some people? Isn't the American Dream an idea everyone can believe in?Yes, but only because our government wants us to believe it. You could say that the American Dream has been used to support the capitalist system. It keeps most of the population working and spending their money.How?AppendixI107-Dr. Hertz:Interviewer: Dr. Hertz:Well, all the time TV shows that the dream of a good life can be reached through money. Advertising tells you to buy and buy so that finally you will get there and the dream will come true.So you're saying it's the dream that makes the system work? Yes, because people become gripped by the need to move up in the world, they have to reach the top. They are never satisfied with what they have. The Ameri-can Dream is at the end of the rainbow. It's not simply about having enough money to buy the things you need. It's about reaching the level of all the other people who have the money to buy more than you can afford. The American Dream may be in your head, but to find it you have to reach into your pocket.Part II Text AText OrganizationMain Events1)Tony worked as a help at Mr. Crawford's house.2)Tony got a job clearing snow at Mr. Crawford's factory.3)Tony learned to become a skilled worker.4)Tony bought a house with Mr. Crawford's help.5)Tony bought a farm and sent for his family in Italy.
