It turns out that this is nowhere near true. By the age of 13 he was reading advanced physics texts, and by the age of 15 he had read Darwins On the Origin of Species.This widespread belief about his school grades may come from two areas: confusion about his schools grading system, and his “failure”in his college exams. The school that Einstein attended when he was 16 changed its grading system at one point. The school at first graded on a scale of 1 to 6. 1 being the highest grade possible. And 6 being the lowest. After the change, 6 became the highest mark and 1 the lowest. Thus, if you look at Einsteins school records at that time you can see that he received 1s in math and physics. It wasnt a case of his failure he was in fact at the top of his class in math and physics.It is true that Einstein failed his entrance exam to the Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich. He was taking the exam to enter the school two years early. He didnt get excellent scores in the test. He had not particularly studied for the test, and may, in fact, have had mixed feelings about whether or not he wanted to pass it. His father wanted him to work on a technical field, but Einstein was more interested in theory. Also, the test was given in French, a language which he was not especially good at. Einstein at last went to the school after finishing his studies at the Aargau Cantonal School.In a word, Einstein was a good student in school and not the poor one as many people imagined.41.From the passage we know that Einstein_.A. was also good at studying languages and artB. had difficulty in reading when he was youngC. was looked down upon by others as a boyD. did well in his studies when he was young42. Before the grading system was changed_.A. 1 was the highest grade B. 6 was the highest gradeC.Einstein got many 6s D. Einstein got many1s43. One of the reasons people think Einstein didnt do well in his studies is that Einstein_.A. couldnt read the texts he learnedB. received 1s in math and physicsC. couldnt speak his native language wellD. received 6s in all the subjects44.Why did Einstein not make good preparations for his entrance exam according to Paragraph3?A. His father stopped him doing so.B. He didnt like that kind of college.C. He may have hesitated to pass it.D. He didnt study what he disliked.45.What would be the best title for this passage?A. Some facts about young Einstein.B. Einstein was what he was considered.C. Was Einstein really a poor student?D. Einstein was very clever all his life.BI began working in journalism when I was eight. It was my mothers idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition.With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was suppertime, I walked back home.“ How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.“ None.”“ Where did you go?”“ The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”“ What did you do?”“ Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”“ You just stood there?”“ Didnt sell a single one.”“ My God, Russell!”Uncle Allen put in, “ Well, Ive decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickel(五分镍币). It was the first nickel I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.One day, I told my mother Id changed my mind. I didnt want to make a success in the magazine business.“ If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “ youll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that.As soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me.My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my fathers plain workmans life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husbands people for true life and love.46. Why did the boy start his job young? A. He wanted to be famous in the future. B. The job was quite easy for him. C. His mother had high hopes for him. D. The competition for the job was fierce.47. From the dialogue between the boy and his mother, we learn that the mother was _. A. excited B. interested C. ashamed D. disappointed 48.What did the mother do when the boy wanted to give up? A. She forced him to continue. B. She punished him. C. She gave him some money. D. She changed her plan.49. What does the underlined phrase “this battle”(last paragraph) refer to? A. The war between the boys parents. B. The arguing between the boy and his mother. C. The quarrel between the boy and his customers. D. The fight between the boy and his father.50. What is the text mainly about? A. The early life of a journalist. B. The early success of a journalist. C. The happy childhood of the writer. D. The important role of the writer in his family. CDo you have bright ideas? Ideas or inventions that change society or, at least, make life easier for somebody? Perhaps we all do sometimes, but we dont often make the idea a reality. Recently, in Britain, there was a competition called British Designers for Tomorrow. The competition encourages young people to carry out their bright ideas. There were two groups in the contest: Group One was for schoolchildren under 16; Group Two was for schoolchildren over 16, and there were eleven prize-winners altogether. Neil Hunt, one of the prize-winners, was called “Sunshine Superman”. Its important when people study the weather to be able to record sunshine accurately. We need to know how many hours of sunshine we have and how strong it is. Most sunshine recorders only record direct sunlight. Neils is more accurate and this is very important for research into the way of using solar power. You can do so much with animated cartoon. Look at Simon Wests idea for animated road signs. He uses pictures which appear to move as you go nearer to or farther from them. This isnt a new idea. But it is new to use these pictures on road signs. “We found that people were more likely to see moving signs,” said Simon. So now, you can really see rocks falling, trains moving, horses running or a car falling over the edge of a cliff. Quite a warning! The ideas in the competition were so inventive that we are surprised that British industry doesnt ask more schoolchildren for suggestions. Perhaps this will be the start of “pupil power!”51.The writer holds that people seldom . A. make their life easier B. turn their bright ideas into reality C. have bright ideas D. think of inventing something52. The organizers of the competition hoped the schoolchildren would . A. become good designers for future Britain B. win as many prizes as they could C. design something useful for the next day D. invent something for immediate use53. Neil Hunts design would finally lead to the improvement of the way of . A. recording direct sunshine B. knowing how strong sunlight is C. using the energy of the sun D. recording the hours of sunshine54. Whats the use of Simon Wests animated road signs? A. To add to the beauty of a city. B. To warn people
