1685 was a very good year for German composers. Within the space of a month, two of the greatest were born: Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel.
Handel’s father was a barber and surgeon, which sounds like a strange combination today, but back then those occupations went hand in hand. Even though Handel was very interested in music, his father didn’t think that was a good way to earn a living, so he wanted his son to be a lawyer. The story goes that Handel smuggled a quiet piano into the house so that he could practice in secret.
One day, Handel went along when his father went to shave a duke. While his father was working, Handel sat down and played the duke’s organ. The duke was so impressed that he convinced Handel’s father to let his son study music, and Handel finally got to learn how to compose.
Handel soon discovered that what he liked most was opera. In fact, he was so passionate about opera that he even fought a duel (決斗) over it with one of his friends. Since Italy was the place to learn about opera composing, Handel went off to Italy to study. When he got home, he got a job as court composer for a German prince.
Having landed such a wonderful job, Handel immediately asked his boss for time off. He wanted to go to England, where he’d heard that there weren’t nearly enough composers to satisfy the British taste for Italian opera.
After great success writing opera in London, Handel came back to Germany. Then fate played a funny trick on Handel and his boss. The Queen of England died, and it just so happened that the prince Handel worked for was next in line to the British throne. When he arrived in London as King George, followed Handel, his court composer in Germany.
In addition to serving the King, Handel became one of the most successful opera composers of his time. And he also produced them and traveled all over Europe to hire the best singers. There are stories of battles with rival opera producers and of fights between rival singers. Handel apparently had quite a temper.
If you ever go to London, look for Handel’s grave in Westminster Abbey, where there’s a wonderful monument to him.
【小題1】How did Handel begin to learn to compose?

A．His father was sure of his future success.
B．His performance impressed a duke.
C．He begged his father to send him to Italy.
D．He practiced hard and taught himself music.
【小題2】What does the underlined word “smuggled” mean in the passage?
A．bought secretlyB．took secretly
C．carried in advanceD．possessed personally
【小題3】 Why did Handel later settle down in Britain instead of Germany?
A．Because he could find better jobs in London.
B．Because he enjoyed greater fame in London.
C．Because his boss became King of Britain and brought him along.
D．Because London was a wonderful place to learn about opera.
【小題4】Which of the following words can NOT be used to describe Handel, as shown in the passage?
A．bad-temperedB．talentedC．enthusiasticD．optimistic
【小題5】 Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage?
A．Handel was born in the same year with Bach.
B．Many people worked both as a barber and a surgeon.
C．Handel quit his job to learn about opera in Italy.
D．Handel was buried in London and was built a monument.

Nobel, who was born in Stockholm, is a great scientist famous for his dangerous experiments.

Nobel studied in the USA and then Russia between 1850 and 1859. After his return, he started researching into bombs. As is known, bomb is dangerous to life, but Nobel was working under that condition. Once a big explosion in his lab completely destroyed the lab and caused some deaths. After that he had to experiment on a boat in a lake. He received criticism and satire(諷刺), but he proceeded with the work rather than losing heart. From 1860s to 1880s, Nobel made many achievements and his inventions were first used in building roads and digging tunnels. Most of the bombs were safer and more possible to be controlled. Even at the end of the 20th century, we still used his methods.

Nobel had many patents in Britain and other European countries. He was quick to see industrial openings(機(jī)會(huì)) for his scientific inventions and built up over 80 companies in 20 different countries. Indeed his greatness lay in his outstanding ability to combine the qualities of an original scientist with those of a forward­looking industrialist.

But Nobel’s main concern was never with making money or even with making scientific discoveries. Seldom happy, he was always searching for a meaning to life, and from his youth, he had taken a serious interest in literature and philosophy. His greatest wish, however, was to see an end to wars, and thus peace between nations, and he spent much time and money working for this cause. To follow his will, a fund was set up to encourage people to make great progress in physics, chemistry, physiology(生理學(xué)), medicine, literature and peace. That’s the Nobel Prize which means great honor to a scientist.

1.Through his early experimental work, it is evident that ________.

A．Nobel was a man of strong will

B．Nobel was a man of gift

C．Nobel seldom got on well with his work

D．Nobel had his heart in his work

2.In fact, his inventions were first used in ________.

A．a(chǎn) war to kill and injure his fellow men

B．building roads

C．digging tunnels

D．both B and C

3.Based on the passage, Nobel, as a scientist, ________.

A．took a single interest in science

B．took a serious interest in money

C．took no interest in literature

D．took a serious interest in literature as well as in science

4.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A．His wonderful will surely provided other scientists with a large sum of money.

B．In leaving behind a well­meant will, Nobel succeeded in setting up a permanent monument for his interests and ideals.

C．Nobel made a glorious will so that he might be remembered and respected after his death.

D．Nobel expressed his wish in his will that a monument should be put up in memory of him.

The Future of Education

David Kelly, founder of the Design School Stanford, said, “In the classroom of the future, education will be custom-made for each student. Every child will have a laptop programmed for his or her learning style and speed. At the same time, more students will go out into the community to learn from business owners. And you’ll see more retirees in the schools as teachers.”

A New Way to Pay

Turn your cell phone into a “mobile wallet” and speed through the checkout line. With a smart phone that uses the same technology as “tap and go” cards, you’ll be able to access your financial data fast. You can select a credit or debit card（借記卡）from the screen, and then tap the phone on the checkout console（操縱臺(tái)；控制臺(tái)）.

High-Tech Guitar

A 26-year-old Australian designer has invented a brand-new way to be a rock star. The Misa Digital Guitar’s fret board looks like a traditional six-string’s but with no strings attached. There’s a touch pad （墊）where the sound hole normally is, and instead of plucking strings,（彈弦） you tap, drag, or brush the pad to “play” the instrument electronically.

The Future of Phones

Jason Chen, editor of the website gizmodo.com, makes his prediction. “Data connections will get even faster, and you’ll be linked to your environment by cell phone. Fcr example, when you go on vacation, you can point your phone at a monument（紀(jì)念碑） and it will give you information about what you’re looking at.’

Needle-Free Vaccines（無(wú)針接種）

Boston University researchers are working on a new method of inoculation（接種）—no injection necessary. A mild electrical charge from a small device, shaped like a gun, is used to drive the particles（粒子） into the body. The new idea beats the old needle method.

Liverpool, my hometown, is a unique city. It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World Heritage （遺產(chǎn)） Site.

I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey. Blanketed in mist （薄霧）, Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the sounds of sea-birds, and appeared unbelievably charming. When I headed toward the centre, I found myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe. It is not hard to imagine why, on first seeing the city, most visitors would be overpowered by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are solid signs of Liverpool’s history.

As if stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries （美術(shù)館） than most cities in Britain. At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has best collections of Victorian paintings in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England. However, culture is more than galleries. Liverpool offers many music events. As Britain’s No.1 music city, it has the biggest city music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world. Liverpool is also well-known for its football and other sports events. Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors, madding the city a place of wonder.

As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from around the world. When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool’s famous Philharmonic pub （酒館）. It is a monument to perfection, and a heritage attraction itself.

Being a World Heritage Site, my home city is certainly a place of “outstanding universal value”. It is a treasure house with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.

1.Visitors who see the city for the first time would be deeply impressed by __________.

A. its charming banks

B. its famous museums

C. its wonderful palaces

2.The third paragraph is developed mainly by __________.

B. following the order of space

3.The author uses the Philharmonic pub to prove that _________.

A. Liverpool is a well-known city for its restaurants

B. Liverpool is an impressive place full of attraction

C. a pub is a wonderful place for visitors to relax themselves

D. a pub is a perfect choice for visitors to complete their journey

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. The universal value of the world heritage in Liverpool.

B. The exciting experience of the author in Liverpool.
