1、Passage 2
Man has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history had thought about the problem. One of them, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.
Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone of his body and rested in peace.
The first real step took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large ―hot air balloon‖. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.3.In fact, the Englishman who tried to fly.

1、Passage 12More and more people like bicycling and it is no surprise. It is fun, healthy and good for the
environment. Maybe that‘s why there are 1.4 billion bicycles and only 400 million cars on roads
worldwide today. Bikes can take you almost anywhere, and there is no oil cost!
Get on a bicycle and ride around your neighborhood. You may discover something new all
around you. Stopping and getting off a bike is easier than stopping and getting out of your car. You
can bike to work and benefit from the enjoyable exercise without polluting the environment. You
don‘t even have to ride all the way.
Folding bikes work well for people who ride the train. Just fold the bike and take it with you.
You can do the same on an airplane. A folding bike can be packed in a suitcase. You can also take
a common bike with you when you fly. But be sure to look for information by getting on airline
websites. Not all airlines are bicycle-friendly to travelers.
Health Benefits of Bicycling:
It helps to prevent heart diseases.
It helps to control your weight.
A 15-minute bike ride to and from work three times a week burns off five kilos of fat in a
year.
It can improve your mood.
Exercise like bicycling has been shown to make people feel better, more relaxed and
self-confident.

1、Passage 15There is a commonly held myth that Einstein was an underachiever at school, but it really
isn＇t true. While he may have had difficulties with languages, Einstein excelled in physics,
mathematics and music. Einstein held many patents and was a keen inventor.
While working at Swiss patent office in Bern he took it upon himself to write his own
scientific papers in his spare time, mostly at weekends and in the evenings after work. 1905 was
Einstein＇s miracle year. During this year he wrote three fundamental papers, any of which would
have guaranteed him immortality in the world of physics.
His first was on a new understanding of the structure of light. Einstein argued that light is
composed of small particles of energy, called photons, as well as oscillating waves.
The second paper built upon the theory of kinetics. Einstein explained how atoms were
responsible for the buffeting of particles of material in suspension, like cigarette smoke suspended
in air. This paper presented the first direct evidence for the existence of atoms, vindicating an idea
that had been around for over 2000 years.
His third paper of 1905 was ―On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies‖. Here Einstein
derived the theory of ―special relativity‖. In a supplementary paper four months later, he
formulated the famous equation, E=mc2, where mass and energy are equivalent, showing that a
very small amount of mass converts to a huge amount of energy. This is the driving force behind
atomic bombs, and all the stars in the Universe.
