24、Stephen Hawking was probably the world’s most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He was an expert on black holes. He 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 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). But Hawkin’s achitvements are even greater if you think of his disability.

Hawking had a bad illness that stopped him from moving or talking. Later he got a wheelchair with a computer by his side. He moved two fingers to control the computer’s mouse. He chose his words from the screen, which were then spoken by a voice synthesizer (合成器). This helped him communicate better.

To have had the disease for most of my life, and I even have had no way to communicate except by simple eye movements since 2019. Hawking once said, “Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work. ”

Hawking tried to make science more popular with people. In 1988, he wrote A Brief History of Time, sharing his understanding of the universe with other people. The book was a best-seller for a long time. So far, it has sold more than 10 million copies around the world. Hawking also wrote a children’s book—Unlocking the Universe with his daughter. He said the book would be “a bit like Harry Potter” but without the magic.

Hawking liked pop culture. He sang in rock songs. He even played roles in popular TV plays including Star Trek (1992), The Simpsons (1999) and The Big Bang Theory (2012). He played himself in all these shows and was proud of making the audience laugh.

25、阅读短文根据短文内容判断句子正误。正确的涂A错误的涂B

Dear Dr Know,

My mom decides and cares about nearly everything in my life-my clothes, my after-school classes, even who I hang out with. I know she does these because she loves me, but it's really annoying and it makes me stressful, What can I do?

Mike

Dear Mike,

I can understand you.

You're right when you say that she does these things because she loves you. It's quite possible that she does them because she still regards you as a young child.

But on the other hand, as you are getting older, you will need to be more independent. Your mom might not want to hear this. Why not sit down and have a talk with her and explain that you want to exercise your independence more? Tell her that you can deal with some things on your own, and you will ask her for help when needed. Hope my suggestions helpful.

Dr. Know

【1】Mike tells Dr. Know his happiness because of his mom' s love.

【2】Dr Know can't understand Mike's feelings.

He was a great hero and is respected by many American Indians. In a 1997 documentary—The Great Tribes, he was known as a holy man, a composer of songs and an artist. Under him, the Sioux and Cheyenne Nations unified. He was advised to go on a European tour in 1887, but he refused it to prevent these two nations from being separated again. He led his people during years of resistance (抵制) to United States government policies and was killed by Indian agency police on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation.

28、

For years I wanted a flower garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together. But then we had Matthew. And Marvin. And the twins, Alisa and Alan. And then Helen. Five children. I was too busy r【1】 them to grow a garden.

Money was tight, as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I’d have to say, “Do you see a m【2】 tree outside? Money doesn’t grow on trees, you know.”

Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their o【3】. I started thinking again about having a garden. I wasn’t sure, though. I mean, gardens do cost money.

Then one spring morning, on Mother’s Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I realized that there must be something u【4】 outside there because a group of people were gathering at the gate. I looked out of the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow（垂柳）because I saw things b【5】 around on it. Then I put my glasses on—and I couldn’t believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard! I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, all over that tree. There was also a note writing: “You also have my eight hours of digging time. Love, Marvin.”

Marvin kept his p【6】, too. He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen foot flower bed for me. And my other children bought me tools, pipes, flower seeds and gardening books.

That was three years ago. My garden is now very pretty, just like I wanted. When I go out and take care of my flowers, I don’t seem to m【7】 my children as much as I once I did. It feels like they are right there with me.

I’m still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does.
