Stephen Hawking, a world famous British physicist, will write a children's book with his daughter. Hawking said the book will be “a bit like Harry Potter” but without the magic. “It explains the wonders of the universe(宇宙),” said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong last week.

Now he sits on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves two fingers to control the computer's mouse. He selects his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer (音响合成器).
“I have had the disease for most of my life,” Hawking once said. “Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work.”
Although Hawking is such a disabled man, he made great achievements. He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years. This includes winning the Albert Einstein Award. It is the highest achievement in theoretical physics (理论物理).

Microsoft founder Bill Gates has talked about to be a good parent, saying that 13 is a right age for a child's first mobile phone. The 57-year-old father of three said on the Today show that his children Jennifer and Rory were not allowed phones until their thirteen birthday and his youngest daughter Phoebe is still waiting for one.
"We've made a rule in our family that it's 13 when you get a phone." He also said as a result his child often returned home from school complaining, "All the other kids have it, I'm the only without it, it's so embarrassing."
Asked if he keeps passwords(密码) to his son and daughters' e-mail and Facebook accounts(帐号). Mr. Gates said that he doesn't for Jennifer, 16, who he says is "old enough".
Besides their wealth Mr. and Mrs. Gates, who live in Lake Medina, have said they want to raise their three children as usually as possible. It is said that their kids have to do housework at home after school and aren't given much pocket money.
And in 2010 Mr. Gates said that he wanted to give most of his $61 billion away rather than hand it down. "That wouldn't be good either for my kids or society," he said.
Mr. Gates left Microsoft in 2008 to put his heart to charity. During the Today interview with host Matt Lauer, he said that helping others made him feel as happy as creating software.
"What you really feel is what you've achieved. If a piece of software gets out there and lots of people love it—it lets them get their work down in better ways—that's exciting," he replied.
53. How old is Phoebe?
A. Maybe 11 years old. B. Maybe 13 years old.
C. Maybe 15 years old. D. Maybe 17 years old.
54. What do Mr. Gates' children think of their not having phones?
A. They feel it interesting. B. They don't think it exciting.
C. They feel it embarrassing. D. They think it funny.
55. Mr. Gates doesn't keep a password to Jennifer's email because ?.
A. Jennifer doesn't like him to do so
B. Jennifer is already sixteen years old
C. he thinks children should be free
D. parents can't know kid's password
56. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Bill's children like his idea about a child's first cell phone.
B. Bill Gates is still working for Microsoft.
C. Bill's children have to do housework after school.
D. Bill's children are given much pocket money.

Over a year ago, Liang Bo was just an ordinary college student studying music. Now, after nearly 80 days of competition, he has become "The Voice of China."
The lucky young man was the winner of the first season of The Voice of China, the most popular TV talent show last summer. He captured(虏获) the hearts of audience(观众) with his passionate(激情的) rock'n'roll performance at the show's final on Sep. 30, 2012.
Fans describe Liang's voice as "natural, clear and touching." Although he seems cool on stage, he can quickly turn on the power once he starts singing. "His performances make you imagine things. When I listen to his singing, I see pictures and think of stories." said Na Ying, one of the four judges on the show. She was also Liang's tutor for the competition.
The 21-year-old boy was born in Changchun, Jilin. Like many young Chinese, he fell in love with music through playing the guitar. Liang got his first guitar as a birthday gift when he was in the middle school. He would spend days and nights practicing. "I can't live without my guitar," he said.
"I don't like talking much but I carry great passion inside me." Liang said. There is no better way to let it out than through music like rock'n'roll. Many compare Liang to famous Chinese rockers including Xu Wei, Wang Feng and Zheng Jun. But the young man doesn't want to stand in others' shadow(阴影). "I respect those rockers, but I'm not going to copy them. I will be who I am." he said.
