Bohr, Professor of Physiology at Copenhagen University, and his wife Ellen. Niels, together with his
younger brother Harald, grew up in an atmosphere most favorable to the development of his gift-his
father was a great physiologist, who encouraged his interest in physics while he was still at school, and
his mother came from a family successful in the field of education.
In 1903, Bohr entered Copenhagen University where he came under the guidance of Professor C.
Christiansen, a highly gifted physicist, and gained his master"s degree in physics in 1909 and two years
later his doctorate.
While still a student, the announcement by the Academy of Sciences in Copenhagen of a prize to
be awarded for the solution to a certain scientific problem, caused him to conduct an experimental and
theoretical investigation of surface tension (表面张力). This work, which he carried out in his father"s
laboratory and for which he received the prize offered (a gold medal), was published in the
Transactions of the Royal Society in 1908.
In the autumn of 1911 he went to Cambridge University, where he profited by following the
experimental work going on in the Cavendish Laboratory under Sir J. J.Thomson"s guidance. In
19131914 Bohr held a lectureship in physics at Copenhagen University and in 19141916 a similar
appointment at the Victoria University in Manchester. In 1916 he was appointed Professor of
Theoretical Physics at Copenhagen University, and from 1920 (until his death in 1962) he was the head
of the Institute for Theoretical Physics, established for him at that university.

A. was greatly influenced by his family
B. always visited his father"s lab

century.Miller"s father had moved to the USA from AustriaHungary,drawn like so many others by the
"Great American Dream".However,he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business
was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.
Miller"s most famous play,Death of a Salesman,is a powerful attack on the American system,with its
aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth.In
Willy Loman,the hero of the play,we see a man who has got into trouble with this system.Willy is "burnt
out"and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment:if he can"t do the work,then he is no
good to his employer,the Wagner Company,and he must go.Willy is painfully aware of this,and at a loss as
to what to do with his lack of success.He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the
end.
When it was first staged in 1949,the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews,and it won the Tony
Award for Best Play,the New York Drama Critics" Circle Award,and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.It was
the first play to win all three of these major awards.
Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury,Connecticut,on the evening of February 10,2005,the
56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.

ease of a 15yearold girl whose family moved from Ireland.She hanged herself in Massachusetts following months of bullying.Her parents criticized her school for failing to protect her.Officials have brought criminal
charges against several teenagers.
Judy Kuczynski is president of an antibullying group called Bully PoliceUSA.Her daughter Tina was
also the victim of severe bullying starting in middle school in the state of Minnesota.He said,"Our daughter
was a very outgoing child.She was involved in all kinds of things and had lots of friends.And over a period

Bullying is defined as negative behavior repeated over time against the same person.It can involve
physical violence,or it can be verbal-for example,insults or threats.Spreading lies about someone or
excluding a person from a group is known as social or relational bullying.
And now there is cyberbullying,which uses the Internet,email or text messages.It has easy appeal for the
bully because it does not involve facetoface contact and it can be done at any time.
The first serious research studies into bullying were done in Norway in the late 1970s.The latest
government study in the United States was released last year.It found that about onethird of students
aged 12 to 18 were bullied at school.
Susan Swearer is a psychologist at the University of Nebraska Lincoln and codirector of the Bullying
Research Network.She says schools should treat bullying as a mental health problem to get bullies and
victims the help they need.She says bullying is connected to depression,anxiety and antisocial behavior and

He could have been president of Israel-or played the violin at Carnegie Hall, but he was too busy
thinking-thinking on God, love and the meaning of life.
Fifty years after his death, his shock (蓬乱) of white hair and hanging moustache still symbolize genius.Einstein remains the leading scientist of the modern time.Looking back 2,400 years, only Newton,
Galileo and Aristotle were his equals.
Around the world, universities and academies are celebrating the 100th anniversary of Einstein"s
"miracle year" when he published five scientific papers in 1905 that basically changed our grasp of space,
time, light and matter.Only he could top himself about ten years later with his theory of relativity.
Born in the age of horsedrawn carriages, his ideas launched a technological revolution that has made
more change in a century than in the previous two thousand years.Computers, satellites,
telecommunication, lasers, television and nuclear power all owe their invention to ways in which Einstein
exposed a stranger and more complicated reality under the world.
He escaped Hitler"s Germany and devoted the rest of his life to human rights and peace with an
authority (当局) unmatched by any scientist today, or even most politicians and religious leaders.He
spoke out against fascism and racial prejudice.His FBI (美国联邦调查局) file ran 1,400 pages.
His letters expose a disorderly personal life-married twice and indifferent toward his children while
absorbed in physics.Yet he charmed lovers and admirers with poetry and sailboat outings.Friends and
neighbors fiercely protected his privacy (隐私).

A. had run for president before he worked at his research

D. Black long hair and moustache, with an air of a painter.
3. Why was 1905 called Einstein"s "miracle year"?
A. Because he topped himself with the theory of relativity.
B. Because he made important discoveries of space, time, light and matter.
C. Because he published five papers on his theory of relativity.
D. Because he wrote five important articles to help people better understand space, time, light and
matter.
4. Which of the following is NOT true about Einstein according to the passage?

One of the best-loved American writers was William Sydney Porter, or O.Henry. From 1893 he lived with his family in a house in Austin, Texas, which is now a museum. Visitors to Austin can see the house. It was saved from destruction (破坏) and turned into a museum in1934. The museum is a good way to learn about the interesting life of the American writer.
William Porter rented this house in Austin and lived there with his wife Athol and daughter Margaret for about two years. Many objects in the museum belonged to the Porters. Others did not. An important piece in the room is the original photograph over here. It was taken there in the house about 1895. The piano
there goes back to the 1860s. His wife took lessons on it when she first moved to Austin.
Porter did not start his career as a successful writer. He worked at a farm, land office and bank. He
also loved words and writing. The museum has a special proof of Porter"s love of language --- his
dictionary. It is said that he had read every word in that dictionary.
Later William Porter was forced to leave Austin because he was charged with financial wrongdoing at
the bank and lost his job. Because he was afraid of a trail (审判), he left the country secretly. But he returned because his wife was dying. After her death, he faced the trial and became a criminal. He served three
and a half years in a prison in Ohio.
William Porter would keep his time in prison a secret. But there was one good thing about it. It provided him with time to write. By the time he was freed, he had published 14 stories and became well known as O.Henry.
Porter later moved to New York City and found great success there. He published over 180 stories in
the last eight years of his life.
