Some people have it easy. When their kids ask them what they do work, they can give a simple, direct answer: \primary school\As a theoretical (理论的) physicist, I never had this luck, Society has come to expect many things from the physicists. (1) It used to be that we only had to discover the basic laws of the world and supply the techniques that would power the nest Silicon Valley (硅谷). With these expectations we were fairly comfortable: they are the sorts of things we think we know how to do. What makes us uncomfortable - and what makes it hard for us to tell our kids what we're up to - is that in this century we have become, though unwillingly, gurus on questions such as \现实)\

We now deal with a whole new class of problems. We ask how the world began and what is the nature of matter. (2)The answers we are coming up with are just not easy to comprehend for the average person.

So. When physicists get out of their cars in the morning, have a cup of coffee and sit down in front of their computers, they leave a familiar world and enter a place where things act in strange ways that are impossible for ordinary people to understand.

Passage 2

The modern sailing ship was developed by a man who never went to sea. He was Prince Henry of Portugal, the younger son of the Portuguese Portuguese king and an English princess.

Prince Henry lived in the fifteenth century. As a boy he became devoted to the sea, and the dedicated himself to imp0roving the design of ships and the methods of sailing them. (3) In 1416,when he was twenty-two, Henry founded a school for mariners, to which he invited everyone who could help him -Jewish astronomers (天文学家), Italian and Spanish sailors, and Arab mathematicians and map makers who knew how to use the crude (粗糙的) compass (罗盘) of the day and could improve it. (4)Henry's goal was to design and equip vessels (船) that would be capable of making long ocean voyages without having to keep close to the shore. The caravel, which he helped design, carried more sails and was longer and slimmer than any ship then

made, yet was tough enough to stand up against gales at sea. He also developed the carrack, which was a slower ship, but one that was capable of carrying more cargo(货物)

D. carry larger crews and more cargo than existing ones. 10. Compared with his caravel, Henry's carrack was A. longer and slimmer. B. able to carry more sails. C. able to carry more cargo. D. shorter.

11. Prince Henry's principal achievement was that of A. making oceanic exploration possible. B. improving the compass.

C. founding a school for mariners.

D. inventing the clipper ship.

12. The best title for this selection is A. the First Modern Sailing Vessels. B. the Mariner Prince.

C. prince Henry's Role in the History of Shipbuilding. D. the First School for Sailors.

Passage 3

Many people are frightened by spiders(蜘蛛). They are especially afraid of large, hairy ones. The largest and most frightening of all spiders is the bird-eating spider, which lives in the hot, thick rain forests of northern South America.

Bird-eating spiders are a type of tarantula(狼蛛)。They are very hairy. Some of these giant spiders can spread eighteen centimeters (seven inches) with their legs. (5)Tarantulas are not, as most people think, poisonous(有毒的) spiders. They can bite, and the bite is painful, but it will not kill a grown-up. The poisonous bite of a black widow spider is far more dangerous.

Bird-eating spiders often hide in holes and under rocks during the day, but at night they creep out and hunt for insects. As you might guess from their name, they also catch birds and eat them.
