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.
Hawking, 64, is probably the world's most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He is an expert on black holes. He has put his whole life into digging into the beginning(and the end) of the universe.
“My goal is simple,” Hawking once said. “It is to completely understand the universe, why it is as it is and why it is there at all.”
Hawking has a bad illness that stops him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking(眨眼).
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).

As you know, Huang Bo sang a song at 2014 CCTV Spring Festival Gala. Huang Bo is an ordinary person. However, this hasn't stopped him from winning over fans and the box office.
Lost in Thailand (《人再囧途之泰囧》), starring Huang, Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang, has become the most popular film of the season. Also, in the TV drama A Unique Militiaman (《民兵葛二蛋》), Huang shows us that a war hero can be funny too.
Huang became famous as a stupid thief in the 2006 film Crazy Stone. Since then, he has impressed people with his performance of different everymen: a farmer, a failed cyclist, a salesman and a migrant worker. Among them, his performance in the 2009 film Cow won Huang a Golden Horse for best actor.
How is he able to express the pains and joys of ordinary people so well? Maybe it is because he himself used to be one of them.
Huang dreamed of becoming an actor at a young age. It was certainly not easy. Before he got the chance, Huang had tried almost every possible job. He sang at bars in Guangzhou. He formed a dancing band in Beijing. He dubbed(配音) for films. He even opened a shoe factory in Qingdao.
There were highs and lows, of course. But as Huang said later "All the people I met and all the difficulties I overcame are treasured experiences for acting."
Does he mind playing ordinary people all the time? Huang says no. "Look at the crowds in the street—how many of them are big shots (大人物)?"
Even now as a well-received actor, he doesn't aim too high. "If people award me a prize, I take it; if they don't give it to me, it's no big deal," said Huang. "I choose to lower my head and be good."
31. In which movie does Huang Bo act as a war hero?
A. Lost in Thailand
B. A Unique Militiaman
C. Crazy Stone
D. Cow
32. The underlined word "everymen" in the passage probably means " ?" in Chinese.
A. 普通人 B. 大明星 C. 每个人 D. 没有人

A. To sing at bars. B. To become an actor.
C. To dub for films. D. To be a big shot.
34. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
