Hawking later found a job at the Institute of Astronomy in Cambridge.In the early stages of his career, his illness got worse, but he was allowed to do research only rather than teach,.In 1985, he had to have an operation.As a result, he lost his speech.Soon his doctors developed a piece of speech generating equipment that allowed him to speak.However, , he lost the use of his hands.
, he never ceased his studies and he developed a number of new ideas about black holes. Hawking believed that the birth of the universe(the “Big Bang”) created many small black holes.His theory was that there was a sort of hole in the This hole led to another universe, completely separate from our own.
Hawking also wrote books.His 1988 book, A Brief History of Time:From the Big Bang to Black Holes, sold one copy for every 750 people on Earth.However, many people could not really understand what he had written.Therefore, Hawking decided to write a simpler version, A Briefer History of Time (2005).

The Nobel Prizes for 2024 have honored groundbreaking discoveries and achievements that have significantly benefited humankind in various ways.These winners have made remarkable contributions to their respective fields, pushing the boundaries of human knowledge and understanding.
Nobel Prize in Physics
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics to John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton.They employed physics tools to develop methods that paved the way for advanced machine learning.Hopfield created a structure capable of storing and reconstructing information, while Hinton invented a method that independently identifies data properties, crucial for modern artificial neural networks.
Nobel Prize in Chemistry
In Chemistry, the focus was on proteins, vital for life.David Baker achieved the seemingly impossible by crafting entirely new protein types.Demis Hassabis and John Jumper tackled a 50-year-old challenge with their AI model that predicts complex protein structures, holding immense potential.
Nobel Prize in Literature
Han Kang, a South Korean author, won the Nobel Prize in Literature for her intense poetic prose (散文) addressing historical mental scars and exposing human life's weakness.Her unique awareness of body-soul connections and her innovative style have made her a contemporary prose pioneer.
Nobel Peace Prize
The 2024 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Nihon Hidankyo, a grassroots Japanese organization of atomic bomb survivors.This is quite different from other awards given to individuals.It won the prize for its efforts to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons.The organization was formed by survivors of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima (广岛) and Nagasaki (长崎) in 1945.

The next time you have cheese, remember the French scientist Louis Pasteur who discovered that bad milk, and many diseases are caused by bacteria.
Louis Pasteur is known as the “father of microbiology”.In his lifetime, he not only proved that bacteria are the cause of diseases, but also discovered the process of vaccination (接种疫苗) which has saved billions of lives.
When Pasteur worked with chickens that were suffering from cholera (霍乱) during his experiments, he accidentally spread cholera to his chickens.Pasteur's chickens became mildly sick but did not die.This was strange as every chicken that came near cholera earlier had died.He realized soon that the cholera had become weak.By the time he tried again, the chickens he had cured earlier did not get cholera anymore.He realized that a weak cholera helped his chickens develop an antibody against it.
Later, Pasteur went on to try this on cows, pigs and dogs.All his research helped him develop different vaccines.We now know that the process of vaccination introduces a weakened kind of bacteria into our body.Our body reacts by creating antibodies to fight the bacteria.Now, when our body comes across the same bacteria which are much stronger, it can fight them off.
Louis Pasteur received numerous awards for the advancement of biology, chemistry, and medicine.He founded the Pasteur Institute to study diseases.It was the first university to teach microbiology and today there are 32 institutes across 29 countries.For every child vaccinated against a deadly disease, we have Louis Pasteur to thank.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了法国微生物学家Louis Pasteur,他发现了疫苗接种,拯救了亿万人的生命。
4.What do we know about Louis Pasteur
A.His discoveries weren't used at his time.
B.He discovered the connection between bacteria and diseases.
C.He was a professor at the Pasteur Institute.
D.His discoveries brought many profits and awards to him.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段“The next time ...caused by bacteria.”可知,Louis Pasteur发现很多疾病是由细菌引起的。故选B。
√
5.What can we learn from his experiment with chickens
A.Cholera was not a deadly disease then.
B.Pasteur spread cholera to chickens on purpose.
C.All chickens suffered from cholera died at last.
D.The weakened cholera couldn't kill the living creatures.
√
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段“When Pasteur ...against it.”可推知,有些鸡感染了霍乱却没有死,因为它们感染的霍乱活性已经被削弱了,故活性被削弱的霍乱无法杀死活的生物。故选D。
6.What is the function of the process of vaccination
A.It builds up people's body.
B.Without it, people will die.
C.It improves people's ability to avoid diseases.
D.It can kill all the diseases and make the sick healthy.
√
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段“Later, ...them off.”可知,疫苗接种通过把活性弱化了的细菌注射进人体,使人体产生了对抗细菌的抗体,增强了应对感染的免疫力。因此疫苗接种过程的作用是提高人们防御疾病的能力。故选C。
7.Why does the author write the passage
A.Because he wants to honour Louis Pasteur and his contribution to the world.
B.Because he wants to show the discoveries of the vaccination.
C.Because be wants to call on children to learn from Louis Pasteur.
D.Because he wants to introduce an important invention in microbiology.
√
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段“Louis Pasteur ..., we have Louis Pasteur to thank.”并结合本文介绍了微生物学家Louis Pasteur——他发现了疫苗接种,拯救了亿万人的生命——可以推测,本文写作目的在于缅怀这位伟大的科学家,提醒我们不要忘记他的卓越贡献。故选A。

The Nobel Prizes for 2024 have honored groundbreaking discoveries and achievements that have significantly benefited humankind in various ways.These winners have made remarkable contributions to their respective fields, pushing the boundaries of human knowledge and understanding.
Nobel Prize in Physics
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics to John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton.They employed physics tools to develop methods that paved the way for advanced machine learning.Hopfield created a structure capable of storing and reconstructing information, while Hinton invented a method that independently identifies data properties, crucial for modern artificial neural networks.
Nobel Prize in Chemistry
In Chemistry, the focus was on proteins, vital for life.David Baker achieved the seemingly impossible by crafting entirely new protein types.Demis Hassabis and John Jumper tackled a 50 year old challenge with their AI model that predicts complex protein structures, holding immense potential.
Nobel Prize in Literature
Han Kang, a South Korean author, won the Nobel Prize in Literature for her intense poetic prose (散文) addressing historical mental scars and exposing human life's weakness.Her unique awareness of body soul connections and her innovative style have made her a contemporary prose pioneer.
Nobel Peace Prize
The 2024 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Nihon Hidankyo, a grassroots Japanese organization of atomic bomb survivors.This is quite different from other awards given to individuals.It won the prize for its efforts to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons.The organization was formed by survivors of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima (广岛) and Nagasaki (长崎) in 1945.

The next time you have cheese, remember the French scientist Louis Pasteur who discovered that bad milk, and many diseases are caused by bacteria.
Louis Pasteur is known as the “father of microbiology”.In his lifetime, he not only proved that bacteria are the cause of diseases, but also discovered the process of vaccination (接种疫苗) which has saved billions of lives.
When Pasteur worked with chickens that were suffering from cholera (霍乱) during his experiments, he accidentally spread cholera to his chickens.Pasteur's chickens became mildly sick but did not die.This was strange as every chicken that came near cholera earlier had died.He realized soon that the cholera had become weak.By the time he tried again, the chickens he had cured earlier did not get cholera anymore.He realized that a weak cholera helped his chickens develop an antibody against it.
Later, Pasteur went on to try this on cows, pigs and dogs.All his research helped him develop different vaccines.We now know that the process of vaccination introduces a weakened kind of bacteria into our body.Our body reacts by creating antibodies to fight the bacteria.Now, when our body comes across the same bacteria which are much stronger, it can fight them off.
Louis Pasteur received numerous awards for the advancement of biology, chemistry, and medicine.He founded the Pasteur Institute to study diseases.It was the first university to teach microbiology and today there are 32 institutes across 29 countries.For every child vaccinated against a deadly disease, we have Louis Pasteur to thank.
4.What do we know about Louis Pasteur
A.His discoveries weren't used at his time.
B.He discovered the connection between bacteria and diseases.
C.He was a professor at the Pasteur Institute.
D.His discoveries brought many profits and awards to him.
5.What can we learn from his experiment with chickens
A.Cholera was not a deadly disease then.
B.Pasteur spread cholera to chickens on purpose.
C.All chickens suffered from cholera died at last.
D.The weakened cholera couldn't kill the living creatures.
6.What is the function of the process of vaccination
A.It builds up people's body.
B.Without it, people will die.
C.It improves people's ability to avoid diseases.
D.It can kill all the diseases and make the sick healthy.
7.Why does the author write the passage
A.Because he wants to honour Louis Pasteur and his contribution to the world.
B.Because he wants to show the discoveries of the vaccination.
C.Because be wants to call on children to learn from Louis Pasteur.
D.Because he wants to introduce an important invention in microbiology.
