Michael Faraday was the son of a blacksmith. There were four children in his family and,with his father often ill and unable to work,Michael Faraday had to earn his living from an early age. This meant little or no schooling. However,the family belonged to a religious group,and Faraday learnt to read and write at Sunday School.
When he was only fourteen,Faraday found a job as a bookbinder(装订工).He used to read the books he was given to bind and he became very interested in the scientific books,particularly the ones about electricity. His interest soon took a practical path and he began conducting his own experiments. These were very basic because Faraday had to make all of his equipment himself. However,he was very careful and kept a clear written record of all his findings.
One day he was given an entrance ticket to the Royal Institute chemistry lecture,given by Humphry Davy. Determined to work for this great scientist,he sent Davy a job application and included his laboratory reports on the experiments he had carried out. In 1813 Davy offered Faraday a job as one of his laboratory assistants. Faraday learnt quickly and soon was recognized as a very able analytical chemist. Later he went to work at the Royal Institute.
Michael Faraday was,perhaps,the greatest practical scientist of the 19th century. As a chemist,he discovered the benzene(苯),which is now the focal point of chemical study. He also proved the relationship between electricity and chemical bonding(化学键合).As a physicist,he invented the dynamo,which led to the later invention of the electric motor. He also discovered the effect of magnetism(磁)on light rays.
1.Why did Faraday attend Sunday School?
A. He had to work for a bookbinder at weekdays.
B. He hoped to read many of the scientific books there.
C. He would like to learn religious knowledge.
D. His family couldn't afford his normal school education.
2.When working as a bookbinder,Faraday ______.
A. published his great findings on electricity
B. made his own equipment for his experiments
C. read many books by Humphry Davy
D. gained his fame as a practical scientist
3.In order to get a chance to work for Davy,Faraday ______.
A. bought tickets to attend Davy's lecture
B. sent his experiment reports to Davy
C. went to the Royal Institute to visit Davy
D. offered to do laboratory work for free
4.Which of the following is the right order of Faraday's life?
a.A laboratory assistant.
b.A student of Sunday School.
c.A bookbinder.
d.An analytical chemist.
A. abcd B. bcda
C. bcad D. cbad

Once there was an 11-year-old boy who went fishing with his father in the middle of a New Hampshire lake. On the day before bass (巴斯鱼) season opened, they were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms. Then the boy tied on a small silver lure (鱼饵) and put it into the lake. Suddenly he felt that something very big pulling on the lure. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. Finally he lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.
The boy and his father looked at the big fish. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 p.m.—two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy. “You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said.
“Dad!” cried the boy. “There will be other fish,” said his father. “Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were in sight in the moonlight. He looked again at his father.
Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed. He threw the huge bass into the black water. The big fish disappeared. The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish.
That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.
And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish ... again and again ... every time he has an ethical (道德的) decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.
1.What happened when the big fish turned out to be a bass?
A.The boy and his father discussed what to do with the big fish.
B.The boy threw the bass back into the water willingly.
C.The father lit a match in order to check the time.
D.They worried other fishermen may discover what they had done.
2.From the text we know that the father _________.
A.didn’t love his son
B.always disagreed with his son
C.disliked the huge fish
D.was firm and stubborn
3.How did the boy feel when the huge bass was thrown into the water?
A.Excited. B.Embarrassed. C.Disappointed. D.Annoyed.
4.The successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because _________.
A.they might catch a big fish there
B.he was taught an important lesson there
C.it was a most popular fishing spot
D.their children enjoyed fishing there
