1、Passage 15There is a commonly held myth that Einstein was an underachiever at school, but it really
isn＇t true. While he may have had difficulties with languages, Einstein excelled in physics,
mathematics and music. Einstein held many patents and was a keen inventor.
While working at Swiss patent office in Bern he took it upon himself to write his own
scientific papers in his spare time, mostly at weekends and in the evenings after work. 1905 was
Einstein＇s miracle year. During this year he wrote three fundamental papers, any of which would
have guaranteed him immortality in the world of physics.
His first was on a new understanding of the structure of light. Einstein argued that light is
composed of small particles of energy, called photons, as well as oscillating waves.
The second paper built upon the theory of kinetics. Einstein explained how atoms were
responsible for the buffeting of particles of material in suspension, like cigarette smoke suspended
in air. This paper presented the first direct evidence for the existence of atoms, vindicating an idea
that had been around for over 2000 years.
His third paper of 1905 was ―On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies‖. Here Einstein
derived the theory of ―special relativity‖. In a supplementary paper four months later, he
formulated the famous equation, E=mc2, where mass and energy are equivalent, showing that a
very small amount of mass converts to a huge amount of energy. This is the driving force behind
atomic bombs, and all the stars in the Universe.

1、Passage 14Shortly after graduation, it is time for you to start the next phase of your life. You will begin
your first "real job." Generally speaking, most of what you have learned in school will not prepare
you for this. There is a big difference between being a student and being an employee. Certainly,
more will be expected of you.
The best career-related advice I ever received came from my former boss on my first day of
work. She told me to listen and observe before suggesting any changes. I took that advice and
have used it in other situations, both in and out of the workplace. While innovation is a good thing,
it is important to be mindful of dynamics of the workplace. If you are entering an environment
where routines are already in place, a newcomer walking in and talking about "better ways" to do
things, will often be met with negative reactions. Why? First, you know nothing about why they
do things the way they do. Second, you haven＇t gained the trust of your co-workers. Finally,
people, by nature, are threatened by changes.
By listening and observing, you will gain a lot. You will learn about the environment of
which you are now a part. You will find out more about the people you are working with. You may
save yourself from making a major, public mistake—you are the new kid on the block while your
co-workers have been around longer. You can learn from their collective experience. 5. This passage is useful in helping you

1、Passage 20Clifford Stoll ran a computer system in Berkelely, California. As a system administrator, he
kept a close eye on the records. One day, Stoll found something strange in the payment record.
There was a 75 cents mistake. One of the thousands of users had used the system for 75 worth of
time and not paid for it.
It might sound like very little money to worry about. But that 75 cents was the first clue Stoll
had to a much bigger problem — that a hacker（黑客）had broken into Stoll‘s computer system.
Who was it? Stoll spent the next year trying to find out. During that time the hacker used the
system in Berkelely as a starting point to break into military computer systems all over the United
States.
Stoll had to keep track of the hacker‘s activities on the computer without the hacker‘s
knowing someone was watching him. Stoll even made up huge files of false information so the hacker would have lots to read. When the hacker spent long time reading, the telephone company
was able to trace the lines. After a year, the hacker was traced back to his computer — in
Germany. He was later caught by the German police.4. What did Stoll decide to do when he found the problem?
