I walked to the door and 3 , "Just a minute," answered a weak, 4 voice.

She kept thanking me for my 8 . " It's nothing”，I told her. " I just try to treat my pas?sengers the way I would want my mother treated.”

Max Vernon Mathews has been called the father of computer music. He created electronic tools so that people could use computers as musical instruments. He had a huge influence on the development of electronic music and how it is written, recorded and played.

In 1957 ，Max Mathews wrote the first computer program that enabled a computer to create sound and play it back. At the time,he was working as an engineer at Bell Laboratories in New Jersey. His computer program was called Music. It enabled a large IBM computer to play a sev?enteen-second piece of music that he had written. The computer was so slow that it would have taken an hour to play the piece of music in seventeen seconds. For that reason, Mathews moved the work to a tape player, which could be sped up to play the music at a normal speed. He later said that the sound quality of the musical notes was not great, but the technical importance of the music was huge.

The science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke visited Bell Laboratories in the1960s. He heard a computer "sing" the song"Daisy Bell" on devices and programs developed by Max Mathews and other engineers. Clarke noted this technology in his book"2001: A Space Odyssey," which was later made into a movie.

Max Mathews had a long and productive career. He worked with composers like John Cage and Edgard Varese. He helped create a center for research in computer music in Paris. And he taught at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics in Stanford University in California.

Mathews believed modern musicians were not making full use of the power of computer music. He said a violin always sounds like a violin, but with a computer, the way a violin sounds is unlimited. He said he did not want computer sounds to replace live music. But he said he hoped laptop computers would one day be considered serious instruments.

( ) 1. Mathews was likely to think that .

A. the first piece of computer music wasn't music indeed

B. the first piece of computer music was too short

C. the IBM computer was fit for creating slow music

D. the first computer music was of vital technical importance

( ) 2. Which of the following is true?

A. Clarke helped develop computer music.

B. Mathews became a character in a movie later on.

C. Computer music was mentioned in Clarke's book.

D. Clarke saw Mathews operate a singing computer.

( ) 3. Which of the following words best describes Mathews?

A. Strange. B. Creative. C. Outgoing. D. Curious.

( ) 4. It is implied in the last paragraph that .

A. modern musicians don't understand computer music

B. a violin does make much better sounds than a computer

C. a computer can help improve sounds of traditional musical instruments

D. laptops are more suitable to be used as serious musical instruments

The venue of the 2012 Summer Olympics was officially awarded to London during the 117th IOS Session in Singapore on July 6,2005. Since then,London has been up to its neck in preparing for the games.

London has a lot to be excited about being the next Olympic venue requires a major eco?nomic development in terms of tourism and infrastructure(基础设施) development as well as job generation and transportation systems expansion.

Indeed, as early as 2004, plans for the Olympic Park were already known as part of London's bid. Standing on a 500-acre property specifically for the games, the Olympic Park will have a hockey centre，a handball arena，a water polo arena，a basketball arena and the Olympic Stadium, where the opening and closing ceremonies will be held.

It is expected that the Olympic Stadium alone would be a major attraction in itself,as it is designed to seat up to 80,000 spectators from all around the world.

It is said one of the factors that won London its bid is its plans of modernising its transport system. Public transport in London will be expanded.

To directly transport commuters(月票乘客) from St. Pancras International to the Olympic Park,a high speed shuttle train will be put up. And of course, London minicabs will be as read-y as ever to serve.

Almost half a million tourists，athletes，and spectators are expected to come for the Olym?pics. This is a huge opportunity for generating both private and public income before, during and even after the games. There is no doubt the legacy of the Olympic Games will be felt in London long after 2012.
