20.Albert Einstein was probably the most famous scientist of the twentieth century.He changed scientific thinking in the modern world.He is generally considered as the greatest physicist who ever lived.What's more,he devoted a lot of his time and energy to working for human rights and progress.
In 1933,while Einstein was visiting England and the United States,the Nazi government of Germany took all his things away,including his position and his citizenship.Einstein then settled down in the United States.In 1939,Einstein,who loved peace-afraid of a world in which only Hitler would had an atomic bomb(原子弹)-tried hard to persuade President Franklin D.Roosevelt in a famous letter to have the United States start uranium research.That Germany,after all,had no bomb,and that the first bomb would fall on Japan,could not have been expected.After the war,Einstein never stopped working for peace and reducing the number of soldiers in the world.
Although he wasn't connected with any accepted religion(宗教),Einstein felt that trust in a personal God was too special an idea to be suitable to the God at work in this universe,but he never believed that the universe was one of chance or disorder.The universe to him was one of pure law and order.He once said,"God may know everything,but he is not hateful."

A.no scientist is as great as Albert Einstein during this century.
B.Albert Einstein was likely to be the greatest scientist of his time.

10.Arriving in Sydney on his own from India,my husband,Rashid,stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.
During the first week of his stay,he went out one day to do some shopping.He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone.He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers,including his passport(护照).
He reported the case to the police and then sat there,lost and lonely in strange city,thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.
Late in the evening,the phone rang.It was a stranger.He was trying to pronounce my husband's name and was asking him a lot of questions.Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶)that had been left out on the footpath.
My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents.Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers.Her parents had carefully sorted them out,although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents.At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.
That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people.We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish to their way.

8.For most people,shopping is still a matter of wandering down the street or loading a cart in a shopping mall.Soon,that will change.Electronic commerce (trade) is growing fast and will soon bring people more choices.There will,however,be a cost:protecting the consumer from being cheated will be harder.Many governments therefore want to apply street regulations to the electronic world.But politicians would be wiser to see cyberspace as a basis for a new era of corporate self-regulation.
Consumers in rich countries have grown used to the idea that the government takes responsibility for everything from the stability of the banks to the safety of the drugs or their rights to refund when goods are faulty.But governments cannot enforce national laws on businesses whose only presence is on the screen.Even in a country where a clear right to compensation exists,the on-line customer in Tokyo,say,can hardly go to New York to get a refund (退款) for a clothes purchase.
One answer s for government to cooperate more:to recognize each other's rules.But that requires years of work and volumes of detailed rules.And plenty of countries have rules too fanciful (稀有的) for sober countries to accept.There is,however,another choice.Let the electronic businesses do the regulation themselves.They do,after all,have a self-interest in doing so.
In electronic commerce,a reputation for honest dealing will be a valuable competitive asset.Governments,too,may compete to be trusted.For instance,customers ordering medicines on-line may prefer to buy from the United States because they trust the rigorous screening of the Food and Drug Administration; or they may decide that the FDA's  rules are too strict,and buy from Switzerland instead.
Customers will still need to use their judgment,but precisely because the technology is new,electronic shoppers are likely for a while to be a lot more cautious than customers of the normal sort.And the new technology will also make it easier for them to complain when a company lets them down.In this way,at least,the advent(出现) of cyberspace may argue for fewer consumer protection laws,not more.
32.In case an electronic shopper bought faulty goods from a foreign country,what could he do?D
A.Refuse to pay for the purchase.
B.Go to the seller and ask for a refund.
C.Appeal to consumer protection law.
D.Complain about it on the Internet.
33.In the author's view,businesses would place a high emphasis on honest dealingbecause in the electronic worldC.
A.international cooperation would be much more frequent
B.consumers could easily seek government protection
C.a good reputation is a great advantage in competition
D.it would be easy for consumers to complain
34.We can infer from the passage that in licensing new drugs the FDA in the United States isC.
A.very cautious     
B.very quick
C.very slow    
D.rather careless
35.According to the author,what will be the best policy for electronic commerce?C
A.Close international cooperation.
B.Strict Consumer protection laws.
C.Self-regulation by the business.
D.Government protection.

People listen to music for different reason.Why is music so important to many people?For one thing,music can help people feel relaxing and sometimes it is even the medicine for a broken heart.For other,music joins people together because the power of its truth and beauty.

9.Seven years of careful design and planning all came together on Monday,when James Cameron became the first man to make a solo (独自的) trip to the deepest known point on Earth-the Challenger Deep!More importantly though,he appeared safely seven hours later,with exciting photos and videos from this dark mysterious world that has been visited by only two people before!
Seated inside a specially built 12-ton green submersible (潜水器) called the Deep Sea Challenger,the filmmaker caught every moment of his 2-hour-36-minute journey down to the bottom of the Marianna Trench on video-it's 120times larger than the Grand Canyon and a mile deeper than Mount Everest.
There were no mysterious footprints-just a flat lonely land that Mr.Cameron describes as"lack of sunlight,any heat,any warmth".The only things swimming around were some small shrimp-like creatures.
While Mr.Cameron had expected to spend six hours at the bottom,he was forced to return in three,because the robotic arm that helped him collect samples (样本)went wrong.
However,these small setbacks (挫折) didn't make the whole trip any less exciting for Mr.Cameron.The director,who returned to the surface in a speedy 70minutes,believes this is just one of many trips he and other adventurers will be taking.In fact,Sir Richard Branson,the founder of the Virgin Group,is planning a similar trip to the Puerto Rico Trench that lies five miles below the surface of the water.Though Mr.Cameron has promised to develop his trip into an exciting documentary,he doesn't talk about how the experience will be used in his next movie.We cannot wait to see!
28.From Paragraph 1we can learn thatD
A.the trip lasted for half a day
B.the pictures Cameron took were dark
C.Cameron was the first man to visit the Challenger Deep
D.the trip had been well prepared in the past few years
29.What can we learn about the green submersible that Cameron took?A
A.It was very heavy.
B.It could play videos.
C.It was once used to make films.
D.It was used to explore the Grand Canyon.
30.What did Cameron find about the bottom of the Challenger Deep?A
A.It was dark and cold.
B.It wasn't a very large area.
C.There were various sea creatures.
D.There were some mysterious footprints.
31.Why did Cameron return earlier than planned?C
A.He had finished all his tasks.
B.He couldn't stand the environment.
C.There was something wrong with his submersible.
D.He wanted to show his photos and videos to others earlier.
