When he was a small boy, Tim was interested in playing with electrical things. He studied science at Oxford University. He made his first computer from an old television at the age of 21. Tim started working on early computers. At that time, they were much bigger than now. He worked in England then Switzerland. Tim was really interested in two things, computers and how the brain works. How could the brain connect so many facts so quickly? He had to work with people all over the world. They shared information about computers. It was hard to manage all the information. He answered the same questions again and again. It took a lot of time. It was even difficult for computers in the same office in Switzerland to share information. Tim also forgot things easily. Could a computer work like a brain? Could it “talk” to other computers? There was an Internet already but it was difficult to use. In 1989, Tim Berners­Lee invented the World Wide Web (WWW) all by himself. This had a special language that helped computers talk to each other on the Internet. When people wanted to share information with others, they used the World Wide Web. The Internet grew quickly after that. Tim Berners­Lee doesn't think he did anything special. He says that all of the ideas about the Internet were already there. All he did was to put them together. He says that many other people worked together to make the Internet what it is today. Most inventors want to become rich. But Tim gave away the World Wide Web for nothing. He now works in America. He helps people share technology and wants the Internet to be free for everyone to use. Maybe he is the most important but least famous inventor in the world today! ( ) 1. What was Tim Berners­Lee interested in? A. Looking for jobs in different cities. B. Talking to people around the world. C. Studying how to connect computers. D. Exploring how to improve memory. ( ) 2. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refers to “________”. A. Working on early computers B. Connecting different facts together C. Travelling to the office in Switzerland D. Repeating the answers to the same questions ( ) 3. Why is Tim Berners­Lee one of the most important men in the world? A. He made information sharing on the Internet possible. B. He made the first computer when he was 21 years old. C. He helped people understand better how the brain works. D. He invented the Internet and made it free for everyone to use. ( ) 4. In what order did the following events take place? a. Tim worked in England. b. Tim worked in Switzerland. c. Tim made his first computer. d. Tim invented the World Wide Web. e. Tim studied science at Oxford University. A. c­e­d­a­b B. e­b­a­c­d C. c­d­a­e­b D. e­c­a­b­d ( ) 5. What does the writer think of Tim Berners­Lee? A. He is not famous because he is not rich. B. He has changed our lives and he is great. C. He did nothing special but make people a good life. D. He has made great achievements in memory research.

C At eleven the next night I bring one hundred thousand dollars in banknotes to the police station and put them into the chief’s hands. He takes the money and leaves, with a confident look in his eyes. The next hour passes slowly and when I hear his footsteps I get up to meet him. His eyes are happy as he says. “We’ve made an agreement! Follow me!” He picks up a candle and walks down into the basement of the building. Sixty detectives always sleep here, and a group of them are playing cards when we come into the room. I follow him as he walks quickly to the far end of the basement. It is dark and frightening and there is a very bad smell. I feel sick and want to go back. Suddenly Inspector Blunt falls over a large object, shouting as he falls: “Hurray for the police force! Here is your elephant!” Someone carries me to the office above, where I come to my senses once again. Reporters arrive and detectives open bottles of champagne and shake hands and talk warmly. Naturally the chief is the hero and his happiness is complete. I am happy for him although now I am a beggar, my elephant is dead, and I have no job. Many people congratulate the chief and many detectives say,“ Look at him, the greatest man of the force. There isn’t anything that he can’t find.” The happy detectives share the fifty thousand dollars and the chief says, as he puts his share into his pocket: “Enjoy it, boys, you’ve earned it. And more than that, you’ve made the police force famous.” Then a telegram arrives, which says: MONROE, MICHIGAN, 10 P.M. First time I’ve seen a telegraph office in three weeks. Followed the footprints a thousand miles through the woods and they get stronger and bigger every day. Don’t worry I’ll soon have the elephant. I am sure. DARLEY, Detective. The chief shouts “three cheers for Darley, one of the best men on the force.” Then he sends a telegraph to Darley, telling him to come home and get his share of the reward. And so the mystery of the stolen elephant is solved. The next day the newspapers are full of good words again. But, poor Hassan is lost forever. When he was shot he went into the dark, unfriendly place in the fog, and there, surrounded by his enemies and constant danger of detection, he died of hunger. The “agreement” cost me one hundred thousand dollars; my detective expenses(费用) were forty-two thousand dollars more. I lost my job. I am a ruined man and a wanderer on the earth. But I still admire that man, the greatest detective in the world. And I will admire him until the day I die. ( )10. What does the underlined part “a large object” in Paragraph 2 refer to(指的是)? A.

We all know that green vegetables are healthy, but what about other foods of different colours? We don't need to like all food, but it is good to have different colours in our diet, for example, red food such as strawberries and tomatoes, yellow food such as bananas and pears and orange food such as carrots and oranges. But what about the blue food? A few years ago, a food company added the blue colour to its bags of sweets. Children liked the blue colour, so were the blue sweets popular? The food company was surprised to find that they were unpopular. Children still preferred the sweets that were the usual colours of red, green, brown, yellow and orange. How many blue meats or vegetables do you know? None? There are few natural blue foods--it isn't common natural food colour. Some scientists say that as a result, our brain doesn't recognize blue foods as something healthy or safe to eat. This is perhaps why we don't usually use blue food colouring(色素)for drinks, cakes or other food. Some people say we eat with our eyes. The idea is that we need to like the looks of the food before we try it. I wanted to test this idea so I asked some friends to have a very unusual lunch. My husband and I made some eggs on toast and put blue colouring in them. The result is that nobody ate them. My guests refused to put the blue eggs in their mouths! So will we ever see blue foods on our plates? The answer seems to be “no”, at least in countries like the UK and the USA. 1. Where may the writer come from? 2. What colour sweets do the children prefer according to the passage? 3. What do we need to have if we want to eat a healthy diet? 4. What was the result of the writer’s test ? 5.
