Passage 1
(09·浙江E篇)
Four people in England back in 1953, stared at Photo 51,It wasn’t much-a picture showing a black X. But three of these people won the Nobel Prize for figuring out what the photo really showed –the shape of DNA The discovery brought fame and fortune to scientists James Watson, Francis Crick, and Maurice Wilkins. The fourth, the one who actually made the picture, was left out.
Her name was Rosalind Franklin.”She should have been up there,” says historian Mary Bowden.” If her photos hadn’t been there, the others couldn’t have come up with the structure.” One reason Franklin was missing was that she had died of cancer four years before the Nobel decision. But now scholars doubt that Franklin was not only robbed of her life by disease but robbed of credit by her competitors
At Cambridge University in the 1950s, Watson and Click tried to make models by cutting up shapes of DNA’s parts and then putting them together. In the meantime, at King’s College in London, Franklin and Wilkins shone X-rays at the molecule(分子). The rays produced patterns reflection the shape.
But Wilkins and Franklin’s relationship was a lot rockier than the celebrated teamwork of Watson and Crick, Wilkins thought Franklin was hired to be his assistant .But the college actually employed her to take over the DNA project.
What she did was produce X-ray pictures that told Watson and Crick that one of their early models was inside out. And she was not shy about saying so. That angered Watson, who attacked her in return, “Mere inspection suggested that she would not easily bend. Clearly she had to to go or be put in her place.”
As Franklin’s competitors, Wilkins, Watson and Crick had much to gain by cutting her out of the little group of researchers, says historian Pnina Abir-Am. In 1962 at the Nobel Prize awarding ceremony, Wilkins thanked 13 colleagues by name before he mentioned Franklin, Watson wrote his book laughing at her. Crick wrote in 1974 that “Franklin was only two steps away from the solution.”
No, Franklin was the solution. “She contributed more than any other player to solving the structure of DNA . She must be considered a co-discoverer,” Abir-Am says. This was backed up by Aaron Klug, who worked with Franklin and later won a Nobel Prize himself. Once described as the “Dark Lady of DNA”, Franklin is finally coming into the light.
57. What is the text mainly about?
A. The disagreements among DNA researchers.
B. The unfair treatment of Franklin.
C. The process of discovering DNA.
D. The race between two teams of scientists.

Knowledge is power. But there is one other thing that we must remember, a strong mind needs a strong body in order to make it most useful. There are a great many good exercises. They are helpful and healthful. Many of them may be taken indoors during raining weather. Indoor exercises, however, are never as helpful as those taken out of doors in pure fresh air. It is because in fresh air more oxygen is taken into our systems and more wastes are given off. The air in the house does not remain fresh very long. But out of doors it is usually fresh and pure. But what shall we play? They are number of games such as football and basket ball, etc. Any game with plenty of movement is good, the best those which are played out of doors. Don’t neglect your body, it is of as much importance as your mind. Our country now needs man with strong minds, good judgement, and sound bodies.

Now, it's 10 o'clock and time for a summary of the news.
Schools where children are failing in reading and writing tests will be publicly identified under new government plans. The government also plans to introduce six new tests including mathematics and science for all school children. Education Minister David Kemp said no school should be afraid of being exposed. The main purpose is to inform parents and schools. They'll have exact information and students' problems will be known. A psychologist has found one in ten students fears injections, blood and injury -- some so much that they run away from doctors. These young patients may miss out on treatment. They were more likely to have fainted when faced with injections, blood and injury. The fear could disturb appropriate medical care. Research has been done on kids who were making trouble all the time at school. They made the teachers' lives very difficult. Researchers found that many of those troublemakers were from divorced families. What they really want is the attention from parents and teachers. Once they could get attention from parents and teachers, the kids could be very appealing. Questions: Q:14. What is the main purpose of introducing the new tests? Q:15 Why do some young patients run away from doctors? Q:16 What is the last piece of news mainly about?
