There is a big tree in the deep mountain. A mother eagle and her three babies live in the tree. One day the mother eagle said to her babies, “Come to the edge of the nest.” The three babies moved slowly and looked down, being afraid to go too far near the edge. “We are afraid,” they replied as they hid under the safety of their mother’s comfortable wings. “Come here,” she encouraged, “I’ll help you.” They came and with a loving and watchful eye, the mother eagle gently pushed the young babies out of their nest. And being brave, the babies flew up and

began their colorful life.

Just as an eagle flies far above the mountains and farms, higher and higher into the blue sky,

you can go on your own journey and you are more independent. Then a whole, new, clear, great life lies before you.

In our journey through life, like the baby eagles, we hope to have new, exciting experiences and a meaningful future. So be brave, independent and take a step out of your comfortable home, you can get where you want to be tomorrow.

Is there a way to quickly remember information just before taking an exam? Walking backwards might be a way to solve this problem. Scientists from the University of Roehampton in the UK said this activity can help people improve their short-term memory.

Researchers asked 114 volunteers to watch a video. After watching the video, volunteers were divided into three groups. One group was told to walk 10 metres forward. The second group walked 10 metres backward. The third group stood in one place. All three groups were then asked 20 questions about what they saw in the video.

The scientists found that the backward- walking group got two more.answers correct on average than the other groups.

This suggests that the relationship between the concepts(概念）of time and space is important considering how our minds form memories. "Time is really expressed via(通过）space,”Aleksandar Aksentijevic, who led the study, told The Daily Mail. When you walk backward, you see things from a different way compared to walking forward. This difference helps people recall things that happened in the past.

And walking backward is not just good for our brains. It is also good for the rest of our body. Compared to walking forward, walking backward is more challenging. This can ameliorate our health, according to New Scientist, Walking backward uses more energy in a short time and burns more calories.

Besides, walking backward is less stressful for our knees. It could.be helpful for people who often have pain in their knees, according to researchers from the Unegon in the US. Walking backward also keeps our spines（脊柱）strong, which can help to reduce pain in the lower back. This might be why many old people like walking backward.

A. walk 10 metres forward

B. walk 10 metres backward

C. keep on moving around

D. stand in one place

2.The experiment shows that walking backward____________.

Stephen Hawking is one of the most famous scientists in this century. He was born in 1942. He’s world well-known on space and time. Stephen was searching some very big questions, such as “How did the universe begin? How will it end?”

Stephen was a student at Oxford University. He studied math and science. Then, at the age of twenty, he became sick.

Three years later, in 1965, he became a doctor of philosophy(哲学).

Because of his serious health problems, it was difficult for him to draw or to write. So he started to think in pictures. With this new way of thinking, he became one of the most famous scientists in the world. In 1981, he met the Pope(教皇) in Rome. They talked about his ideas. Then in 1988, he wrote his first important book, A Brief History of Time. It sold more than 5.5 million copies in 33 different languages. He was once invited to China, he impressed us with his self-confidence, humorous and witty(风趣的) conversation.
