One day Thomas Alva Edison was given a letter by his teacher. His teacher asked him to give it to his mother. Edison thought it was something nice. After he returned home, he proudly gave it to his mother, saying “My teacher let me give this letter to you.”

Not knowing what it was, Edison’s mother opened it, and then her eyes opened wide. With tears in her eyes, she looked at her son and read out the letter aloud, “Your child is a genius. This school is too small for him and doesn’t have enough good teachers to train him. Please teach him yourself.”

The fact was that Edison liked asking strange questions in class. His teachers thought he was mentally ill. They could no longer stand him and decided to stop him from going to school. However, Edison’s mother didn’t give up on her son. She taught him at home.

Many years after Edison’s mother died and he was already one of the greatest inventors, one day he was looking through the old family things. Suddenly he saw a piece of folded paper in the corner of a drawer. He took it and opened it up. It read, “Your son is addled (mentally ill). We won’t let him come to school any more.”

Edison cried for hours and then he wrote in his diary, “Thomas Alva Edison was an addled child, but, by his hero mother, he becomes the genius of the century.”

Having faith in those we love is very important. We should have faith in those around us. Even if others have given upon you, you should have faith in yourself.

1.How did Edison’s mother probably feel when reading the letter?

3.What did Edison’s mother do after knowing the teachers’ decision?

A. She asked him to invent things.

A. teachers should love their students

B. parents know their children the best

Marlene Dietrich is finally to be honored by her home city, Berlin.

For more than half a century, the famous film star won huge fame in Hollywood, but remained a highly controversial（引起争议的） figure in Germany.

When the city’s new film museum is opened on September 26, three of its 15 rooms will show the star’s possessions collected over a lifetime.

In addition to various collections by Marlene, visitors will be able to see all Marlene Dietrich’s movies. There will also be key except for a vast range of Germany-made films.

Dietrich became a world star after her wonderful performance in a movie. After that, she turned her back on Germany, horrified by the sudden movement of Nazi in her hometown.

A few years after the war, the star was persuaded to pay a short visit to Berlin. But the trip proved a disaster. At a city hall gathering in West Berlin, crowds turned out to see her, but not all friendly.

She was attacked at times. She found herself being blamed for wearing an American uniform during the war to please U.S. troops in Europe. She was also scolded for “turning her back on the country”.

Dietrich, deeply hurt, decided she would never return to Berlin again. But she softened her judgment.

When she died in Paris in 1972, it was at her express wish that her body should be sent back to Berlin for burial alongside her mother in a local cemetery.

A. Germans were narrowed-minded

A. Dietrich looked down upon her country

B. Dietrich turned away from her country

C. Dietrich gave up performance in her country

D. Dietrich lost her job in her country

3.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A. Visitors can see various collections by Marlene in Berlin’s new film museum.

B. Dietrich was a famous film star in Hollywood.

C. After the war, Dietrich paid a short visit to her country.

D. Wearing an Australian uniform during the war, Dietrich was regarded a betrayer(背叛者) to her country.

4.The famous film star, as a whole, ________.

A. hated her country because she was once scolded for betraying Germany

For years, scientists and others concerned about climate change have been talking about the need for carbon capture and storage (CCS).

That is the term for removing carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) from, say, a coal-burning power plant’s smokestack and pumping it deep underground to keep it out of the atmosphere, where it would otherwise contribute to global warming.

However, currently, only one power plant in Canada captures and stores carbon on a commercial scale (and it has been having problems). Among the concerns about storage is that carbon dioxide in gaseous or liquid form that is pumped underground might escape back to the atmosphere. So storage sites would have to be monitored, potentially for decades or centuries.

But scientists at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University and other institutions have come up with a different way to store CO2 that might eliminate that problem. Their approach involves dissolving the gas with water and pumping the resulting mixture — soda water, essentially — down into certain kinds of rocks, where the CO2 reacts with the rock to form a mineral called calcite(方解石). By turning the gas into stone, scientists can lock it away permanently. Volcanic rocks called basalts(玄武岩) are excellent for this process, because they are rich in calcium, magnesium and iron, which react with CO2.

The project called CarbFix started in Iceland, 2012, when the scientists pumped about 250 tons of carbon dioxide, mixed with water, about 1,500 feet down into porous basalt. Early signs were encouraging: The scientists found that about 95 percent of the carbon dioxide was changed into calcite. And even more importantly, they wrote, the change happened relatively quickly — in less than two years.

“It’s beyond all our expectations,” said Edda Aradottir, who manages the project. Rapid change of the CO2 means that a project would probably have to be monitored for a far shorter time than a more conventional storage site.

There are still concerns about whether the technology will prove useful in the fight against global warming. For one thing, it would have to be scaled up enormously. For another, a lot of water is needed — 25 tons of it for every ton of CO2 — along with the right kind of rock.

But the researchers say that there is enough porous basaltic rock in Iceland, including in the ocean floors and along the margins of continents. And sitting a storage project in or near the ocean could potentially solve the water problem at the same time, as the researchers say seawater would work just fine.

1.What can we learn about CCS in Paragraphs 2 and 3?

A. Scientists believe global warming will be avoided if CO2 is pumped underground.

B. It’s been a common practice in many plants to capture and store CO2 underground.

C. There is no guarantee that CO2 will not escape even if pumped underground.

D. It requires decades to turn CO2 into liquid form and be locked underground.

2.What materials should be involved in the project CarbFix?

A. Water, CO2, soda water and basalts.

B. Water, CO2, a pump and basalts.

C. CO2, basalts, a pump and calcite.

D. Water, soda water, a pump and calcite.

3.According to Edda Aradottir, the result of the project was beyond the researchers’ expectations, because ________.

A. it’s disappointing to discover new problems caused by rapid change

B. it’s exciting to sense the problem of storing CO2 likely to be solved

C. it’s puzzling to find the encouraging but unexpected result of the project

D. it’s amazing to see 95% of the carbon dioxide turn into calcite that fast

4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?

A. To show the different ways to fight against CO2.

B. To praise the efforts of scientists in storing CO2.

C. To inform us of a breakthrough in storing CO2.

D. To urge people to produce the least possible CO2.
