24、 Albert Einstein and Wolfgang Mozart are possibly the two most famous examples of people who are geniuses (天才). But unlike Mozart, Einstein wasn’t very talented as a kid. Born in Germany in 1879, he was slow to learn to speak, and he was a normal student at school. He was interested in math and science, but he liked to study at home better. Later he studied to be a teacher, but he didn’t find a job in a school and for some years, he was an office worker. A lot of Einstein’s most famous ideas were the result of study in his free time, when he also played the violin to relax.
From 1908, he was a university teacher for many years, first in Europe and then in the US. He was the winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921. He was famous for the theory of relativity (相对论), but only several scientists could understand it. His biggest dream was to find one explanation for the basic (基础的) ideas in physics but he died before this was possible.
As a famous scientist, Einstein got letters from people around the world. Some of the letters were from children and he always answered them. One letter was from a girl with math problems at school. “Do not worry about your difficulties in math” was his answer. “I can tell you that mine are still greater.”
Einstein died in a hospital in 1955. He was named “Person of the Century” in 1999 by Time Magazine.
【1】Einstein ________ when he was a kid.
A.liked to study at home B.had no friends at school
C.was a very talented student D.showed no interest in science

25、Have you ever heard of e-waste, which can be produced every day? How do you deal with your computers, MP4 players and mobile phones when they’re broken or you want a new one?
Most people just throw them away. With the development of the electric industry, e-waste pollution has become a serious problem. According to the United Nations, in 2014, people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of e-waste and only recycled 6.5 million tons. The US was the biggest waster, producing 7.1 million tons. China came second, with 6 million tons.
It’s important to pay attention to e-waste. It can either be valuable or harmful, depending on how we deal with it. E-waste is a valuable urban mine. The value of the metals, like gold and silver in the waste around the world, is amazing. And the metals can be reused. But if people throw them away, the toxic chemicals can get into the earth or air, affecting the environment and people’s health.
Apple, for example, now recycles people’s used products in China when they are buying new ones. The company will test and repair the used ones and sell them at lower prices. To help reduce e-waste, we can also take computers and phones to see if companies offer recycling programs.
【1】If people throw the metals away, the toxic chemicals can get into the earth or air, it will be ________ to people’s health.

D.prove that e-waste is useless.
26、On a hot summer day, ice-cold watermelons serve up a delicious treat. Sure, the rosy flesh (果肉) quenches your thirst (解渴). But now there are more reasons than ever for people to reach for a slice of watermelon.
Meet Dr Alison Edwards. She is a scientist at the Agricultural Research Service. Scientists are people who come up with new ideas called theories (理论). They usually do scientific research to test their new theories. That’s how they find out if a new idea is a good one, or if the new idea will bring an even better idea.
At her lab, Dr Edwards recently learned more about the secrets of why watermelons are good for you!
Dr Edwards has known for a long time that watermelons have vitamin C. But recently she learned that watermelons also have lycopene (番茄红素). It is something that gives tomatoes and watermelons their rosy red colour.
What’s so special about the lycopene in watermelons?
Dr Edwards says that watermelons and tomatoes both have lots of lycopene. It seems that your body can use the lycopene from watermelons more easily than the lycopene from raw (生的) tomatoes. In fact, the lycopene from tomatoes is more easily absorbed (吸收) inside your body once they have been cooked.

27、Coca-Cola is probably the world’s most popular and famous soft drink. It was invented in 1886, and it is still going strong today.
Coca-Cola was first invented by John Pemberton, a man in Atlanta, USA. In 1886, he made up a new kind of medicine for tiredness and headaches. Two of the most important ingredients(成分) at that time were coca(古柯) leaves and kola nuts(可乐果)—and that’s how the drink got its name. Pemberton sold the first glass in May, 1886 in Atlanta. But it tasted terrible, and as a result almost nobody wanted to buy it.
Later, a businessman called Asa Candler wanted to make Coca-Cola a drink instead of a medicine. He mixed it with water and carbon dioxide (CO₂) and it worked. Everybody wanted to buy it and in only a few years Coca-Cola became the national drink of the United States. Until 1899 people could not take the soft drink away from shops to drink at home. They had to drink them in the shops. However, when the Coca-Cola drink became very popular, people wanted to take home bottles of it, so Mr. Candler agreed to sell it in bottles.
During the Second World War(二战), American soldiers drank three million bottles of Coca-Cola a day! They helped to spread the name and the taste of the drink all over the world. Today, nearly 300 million bottles are drunk every day around the world.
