Tokyo may be one of those places that you love and hate at the same time. In Tokyo, there are always too many people in the places where I want to go. There are also too many cars. Tokyo drivers often spend a long time in the busy street, just like drivers in London, Paris and New York.

Tokyo also has a lot of people on foot, and sometimes it is really difficult to walk in the street. The worst time in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is because the nightclubs are closing at that time and everybody wants to go home then. There are 35,000 nightclubs in Tokyo, and usually none of them is empty at night.

During the day, most people go to work by train. Six million train tickets are sold every year in Tokyo. At most stations, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at certain hours it is not enough at all. Although trains are always crowded, they are very good in many ways. They always leave and arrive on time. In London trains, you may see everybody reading a newspaper. But in Tokyo trains, everybody seems to be sleepy, no matter whether his journey is long or short. If you stand outside the station for five minutes, there will be three fire engines(消防车) going past you. They are on the way to one of the fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now.

Stephen Hawking, a world famous British physicist, will write a children's book with his daughter. Hawking said the book will be "a bit like Harry Potter" but without the magic. "It explains the wonders of the universe(宇宙)," said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong last week.

Hawking, 64, is probably the world's most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He is an expert on black holes. He has put his whole life into digging into the beginning (and the end) of the universe.

"My goal is simple," Hawking once said. "It is to completely understand the universe, why it is as it is and why it is there at all."

       Hawking has a bad illness that stops him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking(眨眼).

       Now he sits on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves two fingers to control the computer's mouse. He selects his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音响合成器).

"I have had the disease for most of my life," Hawking once said. "Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work."

       Although Hawking is such a disabled man, he made great achievements. He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years. This includes winning the Albert Einstein Award. It is the highest achievement in theoretical physics(理论物理).

41. The book that Stephen Hawking will write is________.

      A. the same as Harry Potter.               B. quite different from Harry Potter.

      C. about the magic                             D. about science

42. From text we can learn ________.

     A. Hawking is more famous than Einstein.    

    B. Hawking is less famous than Einstein.

    C. Both Hawking and Einstein are very famous. 

    D. Neither Hawking nor Einstein is famous.

43. What does the underlined pronoun "it" stand for?

    A. The goal.      B. The magic.    C. The universe.           D. The book.

    A. Hawking has received many awards and prices except the Albert Einstein Award.

    B. The illness keeps him from moving and talking.

He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed , we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience (耐力).

    Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing . I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing, but as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that moment, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there at the top, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life.”

At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence. I found myself standing at the top of the sky, which was as clear as crystal (水晶).

New rules and behavior standards(标准)for middle school students came out in March. The middle school is going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won’t only have high marks. They will also be kids who don’t dye their hair, smoke or drink. The following are some of the new rules:

Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else’s work on an exam? Don’t do it again! That’s not something an honest students should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room, don’t tell your parents you have done your homework.

Do more at school. Good students love animals and care for other people. April is Bird-loving Month in our country. Is your school doing anything to celebrate it? You shold join! That way, you can learn more about animals and how to protect them. When more people work together, it will be more funny for everyone. Have you ever argued with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others, not only yourself.

Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Perhaps you’ll discover Earth II some day. Don’t look down on new ideas. Everyone’s ideas are important. You should welcome them, because new ideas make life better for everyone.

Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don’t let it happen to you. If you have to go home late, you should let your parents know.

Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet aren’t for kids, so try to look at web pages that are good for you. You can use the web for fun or homework. Can’t you find any good websites for children? Here are some:

http://kids.eastday.com; http://www.chinakids.net.com; http://www.cycnet.com

New 1                      to decide who top students are.

Tell the truth.

 2                    on an exam and telling lies to parents are not something an honest studnets should do.

Do more at school.

Good students  3                      , so join the activities in Brid-loving Month and be friendly to the people you are with.

Be open to new ideas.

Don’t look down on new ideas. New ideas make life better for everyone.

Protect yourself.

Many, perhaps, more American students have to work after class or school. This is necessary because higher   1   in the United States is not free, but costs a large amount of money. It is difficult even   2   for parents who are not very rich to provide children with all the money they need at school, so students have to earn money by   3   .

It is easy for them   4   part-time jobs on campus. Their school may hire (雇佣) them as teaching assistants, secretaries (秘书), workers in offices and  5  , waiters or waitresses in restaurants. They can work there 24 hours a week and   6  by the hour. It is also possible for them to work outside their school in factories, stores and supermarkets, or help families to clean rooms, do repair or babysitting.

At many colleges, students have a three or four   7   summer holiday.

It is a very good chance for them to work full-time somewhere and get   8    money than they can get from part-time jobs.

Besides, American students are usually active in class. They like to ask questions and enjoy   9   with each other or teachers. A professor’s (教授)lecture may be interrupted (打断) from time to time by questions. This doesn’t make him unhappy or angry because questions show that students are listening to him   10   and are using their heads.

Dear Nick, 

Thanks for your letter. You asked me for some advice about revision(复习). First, I think you should have a good plan. Keep notes of what you want to revise each day. Second, don’t try to go over too much at a time. Work hard two or three hours and then have a short rest. Then do some more studying. When I was preparing for my exam, I also tried to eat healthy food and get plenty of sleep. I went for walks and sometimes I met my friends to talk about other things. And last try to keep calm and not to worry. I’m sure you’ll be fine.

                                                                Yours,

Lucy
