Space technology, industrial technology, and the technology of the home, the farm, the office, the bank, and the department store have all been revolutionized.
Clearly, every grownup today would understand the world he lives in much better if he knew something about physics. Whether it be Congress(美国国会) voting huge sums of money for new warships, space exploration, or atomic energy;the office staff learning to use a new computer;son Bobby wanting to know about going to the moon;or the housewife learning to operate a new electric stove physics seems to be everywhere.
Teachers in thousands of schoolrooms in America are trying to communicate some of the excitement and importance of these new developments to their students.
They know that some of their eager students will someday be scientists and will them selves then contribute(贡献) to the development of new knowledge or its application to new things.
But in any case, they can be sure that if they bring a knowledge of science(any science) to their students in meaningful and stimulating ways, they have contributed much to helping each one live a more meaningful life.

About one million years ago,the Ice Age began.The Ice Age was a long period of time in which four great glaciers(冰川) pushed southward to cover almost all the upper half of North America,and then melted away.Each glacier was a thick sheet of ice and snow that spread out from a center near what is now Hudson Bay in Canada.The winters were long,and the cool summers were too short to melt much of the ice and snow.The evergrowing sheet built up to a thickness of two miles at its center.
As all glaciers do,these great glaciers slid(滑动). They pushed down giant trees in their paths and scraped(刮削)the earth bare(光秃秃)of soil.Many animals moved farther south to escape.Others stayed and were destroyed.
When winters of little snow came,the summer suns into the edges to the ice sheets.As the glaciers melted,rocks,soil and other things that had mixed with the ice and snow were left.New hills,lakes and rivers were formed.
The last of the great glaciers began its melting about 11 000 years ago.Itsmelting formed the Great Lakes.These lakes are today little changed from their early sizes the glaciers.This is the Mississippi Missouri Ohio system.These rivers were miles wide at first.Through the years they settle into their present channels.

A sobbing little girl stood near a small church from which she had been turned away because it “was too crowded.” “I can’t go to Sunday School,” she sobbed to the pastor (牧师) as he walked by.Seeing her shabby appearance, the pastor guessed the reason, and, taking her by the hand, took her inside and found a place for her in the Sunday School class.The child was so touched that she went to bed that night thinking of the children who have no place to worship Jesus.
Some years later, this child lay dead in one of the poor buildings and the parents called for the kindhearted pastor, who had befriended their daughter, to handle the final arrangements.As her poor little body was being moved, a worn purse was found which seemed to have been picked up from some trash dump.Inside was found 57 cents and a note scribbled in childish handwriting which read, “This is to help build the little church bigger so more children can go to Sunday School.”
For two years she had saved for this offering of love.When the pastor tearfully read that note, he knew instantly what he would do.Carrying this note, he told people the story of her unselfish love and devotion.
A newspaper learned of the story and published it.It was read by a Realtor who offered them a parcel of land worth many thousands.When told that the church could not pay so much, he offered it for 57 cents.
Church members made large donations.Checks came from far and wide.Within five years the little girl’s gift had increased to $250,000, a huge sum for that time.
When you are in the city of Philadelphia, look up Temple Baptist Church, with a seating capacity of 3,300 and Temple University, where hundreds of students are trained.Have a look, too, at the Good Samaritan Hospital and at a Sunday School building which houses hundreds of Sunday scholars, so that no child in the area will ever need to be left outside during Sunday school time.

A.To save money for her future career.
B.To build a large building for more children to live in.
C.To help build a church big enough for every child to go to.

The physical memory dump(电脑死机) error is a big problem that affects even the most advanced computer systems.Although it"s quite a rare error, it"s one of the most stopping what you"re doing and restarting your computer—making you lose all your unsaved data.This is a big problem, but there is actually a very easy way to fix it.
There are two reasons why the physical memory dump happens.The first is pretty simple and is to do with the "hardware", and if any of these pieces are not fit for your system, it will cause the physical memory dump.So, if you"ve recently added any hardware to your PC, then take that out and see if it works.
The other reason is your system, the "registry".The registry is a big database(数据库)that operates in the background of Windows, storing all sorts of settings and information about your PC.The problem with the registry is that since it has so many important files inside, it"s constantly got hundreds of files open every time you use your PC.And because there are so many files to open at once, Windows is constantly getting confused, leading it to save many of these files in the wrong way.These files go wrong when saved wrongly, making them difficult for your computer to read.However, if it can"t read the files at all, it has no choice but to stop everything it"s doing and restart your PC.This is why the physical memory dump error appears so easily—because when a registry file is so wrong that it can"t be read, your computer needs to refresh itself immediately.
This latter reason for causing the physical memory dump is actually extremely common and the likelihood is that your PC is suffering from it, if you"re seeing this error.Luckily, it"s also incredibly easy to fix—you just need to use a software tool called a "registry cleaner" to go through the registry and fix all the problems in there.
72.From the text we can infer that ________.
A.the dump error often happens to your PC
B.the dump canbe dealt with easily
C.only the advanced computers suffers from the error
D.the dump error can cause the data in your PC to be lost
73.The reason that your PC has the dump error is that ___________.
A.the the hardware loses its memory
B.your Windows needs to be upgraded
C.you have saved wrong files in the PC
D.you have stored too many files in the PC.
74.What’s problem with the registry when your PC goes wrong?
A.The register can’t read the files correctly.
B.It must open 100 files every time you use your PC.
C.The register doesn’t agree with the database.
D.The register must save many important files inside.
75.What does a registry cleaner means?
A.A softwar which can help you save time.
B.A software which can remove unnecessary files
C.A software which can repair the machine.
D.a software which makes your PC down.
If you are human, you can’t help but experience times when everything seems to be going wrong .You must also 21 as if your life is completely out of control at times.It is during those “down times” that words of encouragement from family, friends, co-workers or 22 strangers can boost (增强) your spirits.It is also during those 23 that destructive words can be devastating (毁灭性的) and sink you deeper and deeper into depression.
For example, consider this story about a group of 24 who were traveling through the woods when 25 of them fell into a deep pit (坑).All of the other frogs gathered around the 26 .When they saw how 27 the pit was, they told the two 28 frogs they would never get out.
The two frogs didn’t obey what other frogs said and tried to 29 out of the pit.The other frogs kept telling them not to jump, 30 it was in vain.Finally, one of the frogs followed what the other frogs were saying and simply 31 .He fell down and 32 .The other frog continued to jump as 33 as he could.Once again the crowd of frogs shouted at him to 34 the pain.The more they 35 , the harder he jumped and finally he 36 to safety.
When he 37 , the other frogs asked him why he continued to jump when they were all 38 him to simply quit.The frog 39 to them that he was a little bit deaf.He thought they were 40 him all the time.
21.A.think B.experience C.seem D.feel
22.A.so B.just C.even D.ever
23.A.processes B.times C.courses D.practices
24.A.frogs B.mice C.dogs D.cats
25.A.two B.three C.many D.few
