I had the meanest mother in the whole world.While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have cereal, eggs or toast.While others had Cokes and candy for lunch, I had to eat a sandwich.As you can guess, my supper was different from the other kids’ too.But at least, I wasn’t alone in my sufferings.My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.

My mother insisted upon knowing where we were at all times.She had to know who our friends were and where we were going.She insisted if we said we’d be gone an hour, then we should be gone one hour or less -- not one hour and one minute.And she always insisted upon us telling the truth.Now you can see how mean she was.

The worst is yet to come.We had to be in bed by nine each night and up at eight the next morning.We couldn’t sleep till noon like our friends.So while they slept - my mother actually had the courage to break the Child Labor Law.She made us work.We had to wash dishes, make beds, and learn to cook.We had to wear clean clothes and take a bath every day.The other kids always wore their clothes for days.We reached the height of disgrace because she made our clothes herself, just to save money.I believe she laid awake at night thinking up mean things to do to us.

Through the years, things didn’t improve a bit.We could not lie in bed “sick” like our friends did, and miss school.Our marks in school had to live up to expectations.Our friends’ report cards had beautiful colors on them, black for passing, red for failing.My mother, being as different as she was, would be satisfied with nothing less than ugly black marks.

As the years rolled by, first one and then the other of us was put to shame.We graduated from high school.With our mother behind us, talking, hitting and demanding respect, none of us was allowed the pleasure of being a drop-out.

My mother was a complete failure as a mother.Out of four children, a couple of us attained some higher education.None of us have ever been arrested or divorced.Each of my brothers served his time in the service of this country.She forced us to grow up into God-fearing, educated, honest adults.I am now trying to raise my three children.I am filled with pride when my children call me mean.Why? Because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the whole world.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

In my first week as a graduate student at Cambridge University in 1964 I met with a fellow student, two years ahead of me in his studies; he was unsteady on his feet and spoke with great difficulty.This was Stephen Hawking.I learned that he had a bad disease and might not live long enough even to finish his PhD degree.

But, amazingly, he has reached the age of 73.Even mere survival would have been a medical miracle, but of course, he didn’t merely survive.He has become arguably the most famous scientist in the world for his brilliant research, for his bestselling books, and, above all, for his astonishing victory over hardship.

Stephen received his “death sentence” in 1964, when I thought it was hard for him to go on with his study.Stephen went from Albans School to Oxford University.He was said to be a “lazy” undergraduate, but his brilliance earned him a first class degree, an “entry ticket” to a research career in Cambridge and a uniquely inspiring achievement.Within a few years of the burst of his disease he was wheelchair bound, and his speech was so unclear that it could only be understood by those who knew him well.But his scientific career went from strength to strength: he quickly came up with a series of insights into the nature of black holes (then a very new idea) and how the universe began.In 1974 he was elected to the Royal Society at the exceptionally early age of 32.

The great advances in science generally involve discovering a link between phenomena that were previously conceptually unconnected — for instance, Isaac Newton realized that the force making an apple fall to earth was the same as the force that holds the moon and planets in their orbits.Stephen’s revolutionary idea about a link between gravity and quantum(量子) theory has still not been tested. However, it has been hugely influential; indeed, one of the main achievements of string theory(弦理论) has been to confirm and build on his idea. He has undoubtedly done more than anyone else since Einstein to improve our knowledge of gravity and he is one of the top ten living theoretical physicists.
