19、He is a rare celebrity scientist. Hes even had a TV cameo role (小角色 ) in Star Trek in which he plays poker with scientific icons (偶像 ) Sir Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein. Yet when asked about comparisons between himself and the two scientists, he calls it all “media hype (炒作 ). “ Once asked how he

20、 felt about being labeled the worlds smartest person, he responded: “It is very embarrassing. It is rubbish, just media hype. They just want a hero, and I fill the role model of a disabled genius. At least I am disabled, but I am no genius. “ Hawking has ALS or Lou Gehrigs disease, a neuromuscular d

21、isease that progressively weakens muscle control. He gets around in a wheelchair, and after completely losing the use of his vocal chords in an operation to assist his breathing in 1985, he communicates through a computer. A speech synthesizer “speaks“ for him after he punches in what he wants to sa

22、y, selecting words in the computer software by pressing a switch with his hand. Unfortunately, it makes him sound like he has an American accent, he says. Despite his humorous, self-effacing manner, Hawking is one of the worlds leading theoretical physicists. Many consider him to be the most brillia

23、nt since Einstein. Since 1979, hes held the post of Lucasian professor of mathematics at Cambridge University which was once held by Isaac Newton no lessand has twelve honorary degrees. Hes also a best-selling author. His book, A Brief History of Time, has been translated into 33 languages and has s

24、old nine million copies. For much of his academic life, Hawking has been among a group of theoretical physicists searching for a “theory of everything“one unified scientific theory that explains the big cosmological questions like How did the universe begin? Why is the universe the way it is? and Ho

25、w will it end? You are probably familiar with the existing theories, such as the Big Bang theory. However, these theories are inconsistent with each other. So Hawkingamong a group of theoretical physicistshas been on a quest to come up with a theory of quantum (量子 ) gravity that would incorporate th

29、e club!“ Just about every kid in the US has heard this from a parent or grandparent. Often, its accompanied by an appeal: “Just think about those starving orphans (孤儿 ) in Africa!“ Sure, we should be grateful for every bite of food. Unfortunately, many people in the US take a few too many bites. Ins

30、tead of saying “clean the plate“, perhaps we should save some food for tomorrow. According to news reports, US restaurants are partly to blame for the growing bellies (肚子 ). A waiter puts a plate of food in front of each customer, with two to four times the amount recommended by the government, acco

31、rding to a USA Today story. Americans traditionally associate quantity with value and most restaurants try to give them that. They serve large portions to stand apart from competitors and to give the customers value. They prefer to have customers complain about too much food rather than too little.

32、Barbara Rolls, a nutrition professor at Pennsylvania State University, told USA Today that restaurant portion sizes began to grow in the 1970s, the same time that the American waistline began to expand. Health experts have tried to get many restaurants to serve smaller portions. Now, apparently, som

33、e customers are calling for this too. A restaurant industry trade magazine reported last month that 57 percent of more than 4,000 people surveyed believed restaurants serve portions that are too large; 23 percent had no opinion; 20 percent disagreed. But a closer look at the survey indicates that ma

34、ny Americans who cant afford fine dining still prefer large portions. Seventy percent of those earning at least $ 150,000 per year prefer smaller portions. But only 45 percent of those earning less than $ 25,000 want smaller. Its not that working class Americans dont want to eat healthy. Its just th

35、at after long hours at low-paying jobs, getting less on their plate hardly seems like a good deal. They live from paycheck to paycheck, happy to save a little money for next years Christmas presents. 24 By saying “Be a member of the clean-plate-club!“ (Para. 1) a parent or grandparent is asking the

36、children to_. （ A） wash dishes after meals （ B） eat all the food on their plate （ C） save food for the starving Africans （ D） reserve food for the future 25 According to news reports, US restaurants_. （ A） are partly responsible for the overweight problem （ B） ignore the government regulations on fo

37、od amount （ C） serve two to four times the amount the customers want （ D） are partly to blame for the waste of food in America 26 US restaurants provide large portions of food because_. （ A） most customers are calling for that （ B） they want to win in severe competition （ C） the American waistline i

38、n expanding （ D） it is the regulation of the restaurant industry 27 According to the passage, working class Americans dining in restaurants_. （ A） eat less to save money （ B） get less on their plate （ C） want to get their moneys value back （ D） do not care about their health 28 A proper title of the

39、 passage is_. （ A） Why Restaurants Serve Large Portions （ B） Income and Food Portion Sizes （ C） Clean Your Plate （ D） Less Food on the Plate Is Healthier 28 Ultralight (超轻型的 ) airplanes are a recent development in aviation that provide what aviation enthusiasts have long been seeking: born of the ma

40、rriage of the hang glider and the go-kart (超型单座赛车 ) engine around 1974, when John Moody mounted a 12-horsepower go-kart engine on his Icarus II hang glider. Todays ultralights are not just hang gliders with engines; they are “air recreation vehicles.“ Modern ultralight planes use snowmobile engines

41、that let them cruise at about 40 miles per hour, climb at about 400 feet per minute, and carry combined payloads of pilot and fuel up to about 200 pounds, which is about equal to an ultralight planes weight when empty. More than ten thousand ultralight planes were sold last year at prices ranging fr

42、om $2,800 to $ 7,000. But the main reason for the increasing popularity of these aircraft is not that they are inexpensive, but that they are fun to fly. The modern ultralight plane would look very familiar to the earliest pioneers of aviation. Otto Lilienthal made more than 2,000 flights in Germany

43、 in the 1890s in what were actually hang gliders. Octave Chanute designed and built many early hang gliders. Augustus Herring, Chanutes assistant, used these gliders as models for a glider that he built for himself. On this glider, Herring installed a compressed-air motor and flew 267 feet in 1898.

44、The Wright brothers flyer was the grandfather of todays ultralight planes. The pilot sat right out in the open, just as in modern ultralights, and used controls that were much the same as those used in todays machines. Though most ultralight planes are used for pleasure flying, some are also used fo

45、r crop dusting, aerial photography, and even military observation service. The likelihood is that further uses will be found for ultralight planes, but their greatest use will continue to be as air recreational vehicles. 29 The author seems to feel that ultralight airplanes are_. （ A） a toy for the

46、rich （ B） nothing but hang gliders （ C） a new development that meets the needs of aviation enthusiasts （ D） the most important development in aviation since the Wright brothers flyer 30 The author compares John Moodys use of a go-kart engine on a hang glider to_. （ A） a marriage （ B） the flight of I

47、carus （ C） cruising in a snowmobile （ D） soaring and gliding from a high altitude 31 Which of the following statements is an opinion? （ A） Ultralight planes use snowmobile engines that let them cruise at about 40 miles per hour. （ B） John Moody used a 12-horsepower engine to power his Icarus II hang

48、 glider. （ C） The use of ultralight planes will increase in such areas as crop dusting and aerial photography. （ D） Otto Lilienthal made more than 2,000 flights in Germany in the 1890s in what were actually hang gliders. 32 The author finds great similarity between_. （ A） the weight of the hang glid

49、er and that of the ultralight airplane （ B） ultralight airplanes and military aircraft （ C） the inventiveness of John Moody and that of Octave Chanute （ D） the controls used in the Wright brothers flyer and those used in todays ultralight air-planes 33 The theme of this passage is about_. （ A） the flying snowmobile （ B） the history of recent aviation
