• 2．Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford，England on 8th January，1942.He went to school in St.Albans-a small city near London.Although he did well，he was never top of his class.After leaving school，Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics，and then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology（宇宙學(xué)）.As he himself admitted he wasn't very serious about studying.He was a very lazy student，and did very little work.However，he still achieved extremely good marks.
     Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him at the age of 20.He started to bump into things，and often fell over for no reason.When he visited his family at Christmas time，his father was so worried that he was sent to hospital for a test.Finally，the result came back.Hawking had motor neurone disease（運(yùn)動(dòng)神經(jīng)元病），an incurable illness which causes the muscles of the body to waste away.Doctors said he would die before he was 23.
     At first，Hawking became extremely depressed.After a while，though，he began to see his life in a different way.As he later wrote， "Before my illness had been diagnosed（診斷），there had not seemed to be anything worth doing.But shortly after I came out of hospital，I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do." Hawking married，found a job at Cambridge University，where he worked all his life，and had three children.He also went to do some of the most important scientific research ever carried out.
     His story shows that nobody，however bad their situation is，should lose hope. "Life is not fair，" he once said."You just have to do the best you can in your own situation."

• 3．The plot of the story of "The Million Pound Bank Note" centers on the impossibility of encashing（兌現(xiàn)） a high valued bank note by a common man.Within this story it is narrated （敘述） that only two such notes were ever issued and anyone who walks into a bank to cash that note will get himself in trouble.So，do such million pound bank notes really exist？Let's do a bit of digging around for the purpose of satisfying the curiosity over this question.
     Such high valued pound bank notes do exist，and they were usually used for transactions（交易） within banks.The Bank of England used "one million" and "hundred million" pound bank notes to keep parity（等價(jià)） with bank notes issued by Scottish and Northern Irish banks.These notes — the one million ones were called "giants" and came in A5 size and the hundred million ones were called "titans" having an A4 size — were more like IOU documents （legal forms that describe a loan between a lender and a borrower） and they were special issues from the Bank of England to meet the requirement of backing the value of everyday notes issued by banks in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
     Nine such one million pound notes were issued in connection with the Marshall Plan （the US's post-war aid program to Western Europe），equal to the loan from the US after World War II （WWII） in 1948.After cancellation （取消），of these nine only seven were destroyed and two survived with private collectors.Such high valued notes are not usually found in the normal transactional scenes and it is believed that notes worth eight billion pounds were printed in these heavy denominations （面額） in total.
     Mark Twain can create humor from narrations of unrealistic（不現(xiàn)實(shí)的） and often funny simple situations and "The Million Pound Bank Note" is a nice example of his storytelling abilities.
  
  （1）Why does the author mention "The Million Pound Bank Note" in paragraph 1？

  
  A．To bring up the topic.
  B．To question the readers.
  C．To retell the famous story.
  D．To support the topic.
  （2）What can we learn about "giants" and "titans"？

  
  A．They were the same size.
  B．They were sold at a discount.
  C．They were issued by banks in Scotland.
  D．They were mainly used within banks.
  （3）What do we know about the nine 1948 one million pound notes？

  
  A．Seven of them were destroyed in WWII.
  B．Two of them became private collections.
  C．All are worth eight billion pounds now.
  D．All were used by the public at that time.
  （4）What does the author want to do in the last paragraph？

  
  A．To show Mark Twain's humor.
  B．To praise Mark Twain and his work.
  C．To introduce "The Million Pound Bank Note".
  D．To uncover Mark Twain's attitude towards society.
