If someone says to you: ―give me five‖, do not search your pocket to get five yuan! It will make others laugh! The person's not asking for your money, but your fingers.

In the US, "give me five" or "give me the high five" is a popular gesture. You can see it often in films or on TV. It means the slapping of each other's raised right hands together.

People do it when they meet for the first time or something happy happens. For example, a student has good marks in exams or wins a lottery ticket.If a football team wins a game, the players will give high fives to everyone around to celebrate.

Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on 8th January, 1942. He went to school in

St Albans--a small city near London. Although he did well, he was never top of his class. After leaving school, Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics, then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology. As he himself admits, he didn't work hard. He was a very lazy student, and did very little work. However, he still got good marks.

It was at the age of 20 that Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him. He started to bump (撞上 )into things. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his mother was so worried that she made him see a doctor. Hawking was sent to hospital for tests. Finally, the result came back. Hawking had motor neurone disease, an illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe or move without the help of a machine. Doctors said they had no way to help him. He would die before he was 23.

At first, Hawking became very sad. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later write, "Before my illness was diagnosed(诊断), I had been very bored with life. There had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do." Hawking married, found a job at Cambridge University, and had three children. He also went on to do some of the most important scientific research.

Today, Hawking still works at Cambridge University as a professor. He strongly believes that his story shows that nobody, how bad their situation is, should lose hope. "Life is not fair, "he once said. "You just have to do the best you can in your own situation."

47. As a university student, Stephen Hawking _______.

A. worked very hard B. studied maths and physics

A. 无法治愈的 B. 难以确诊的 C. 常见的 D. 可以治愈的

50. When Hawking was first diagnosed with motor neurone disease, he __.

A. made up his mind to get married B. began to see his life in a different way

British people are famous for drinking tea. But brother and sister, Sahar and Bobby Green, became young millionaires when they opened a chain of American-style coffee shops in the U.K. Having the idea: It started when Sahar took a weekend trip to New York to visit her brother Bobby.

Advice for others: Sahar has now written a best-selling book about their experience, called Anyone Can Do It! She hopes it will help other young people to start their own businesses.

Mr Rhodes was a lollipop (棒棒糖) man. He was the STOP-GO man who worked on the road gang (筑路人道班) for Acacia Grove Council. He had a very important job. He was the person who controlled (指挥) the traffic when the road gang was doing important road repairs. He was the person who let the drivers know when to STOP and when to GO.

You may have known several kinds of police, traffic police and street police. But have you ever heard of energysaving (节能) policemen?

A group of 22 of these new policemen went to work last week in Beijing. They go around the city to see the use of energy in hotels, office buildings, shopping centers and other public places. One of their aims is to make sure that these places have set their air conditioning (空调) no cooler than 26℃.

―If everyone sets their air conditioning at 26℃, Beijing will save 400 million kilowatt-hours of electricity in one summer,‖ said a TV advertisement.

Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time — about eight hours after you wake up — your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no

night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern (模式). They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.

In many parts of the world, people take naps (小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease.

Many working people, unluckily, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers(雇主) do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making use of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap – even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.

36. Why do people feel sleepy in the early afternoon according to the text?

A. They eat too much for lunch.

In high school, George Lucas didn‘t do much work because he spent all his time dreaming about racing cars.

Just a few days before graduation, George was driving home from the library in his Fiat; he prepared for a left turn by glancing in the mirror. But as he started the turn, he heard the sound of another car, a blowing horn(喇叭), and then a speeding Ford hit the driver side of his car. The little Fiat turned four or five complete flips(空翻)before it stopped by a big tree. Luckily, George did not die in the accident, but his recovery was slow and he needed months of physical treatment. He would never be able to race cars now.

The accident really changed George‘s life. He thought there must be some reason why he survived, and made up his mind to get his act together and make something out of his life. He decided to go to university and he developed an interest in reading and writing. He did quite well in his studies. He didn‘t quite forget about racing cars. At that time instead of driving racing cars, he began filming them.

You may have seen one or all of George Lucas‘ most famous films from the Star Wars series to the Indiana Jones Trilogy(三部曲). Not only has George produced great movies, but also he has helped invent and develop new technologies to modernize the movie industy.

Some people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?

Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbooks (平装本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.

Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books, science textbook, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.

47. It can be inferred from the passage that ____.

A. TV programs are a chief provider of knowledge

B. cinemas are the best choice in getting information

C. reading is a cheap way of learning and having fun

D. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself

48. What does the sentences ―Television has not killed reading, however ‖ underlined in the

second paragraph suggest?

A. People only need reading, though. B. Reading is still necessary today.

C. Reading is more fun than television. D. Watching television doesn‘t help reading.

49. Which of the following is mainly discussed in the last paragraph?
