Professor Stephen William Hawking was born on 8th January 1942, (exactly 300 years after the death of Galileo) in Oxford, England. His parents’ house was in north London but during World War II Oxford was considered a safer place to have babies. When he was eight, his family moved to St. Albans, a town about 20 miles north of

London. At the age of eleven, Hawking went to St. Albans School and then on to University College, Oxford (1959), his father's old college. Hawking wanted to study mathematics although his father would have preferred medicine. Mathematics was not available at University College, so he chose to study physics instead. After three years and not very much work, he was awarded a very important prize in natural science.

In 1963, Hawking got a serious disease and he was not expected to live more than two years. Just before his disease, Hawking met Jane Wilde, and the two were married in 1965. The couple had three children before they ended up their marriage. Hawking got married again in 1995 but divorced in 2006.

Hawking was also a popular writer. His first book, A Brief History of Time was first published in 1988 and became an international best seller. In it, Hawking hoped to communicate questions about the birth and death of the universe to people who didn’t know the universe much. He wrote a children’s book George and the Big Bang with his daughter. Hawking said the book would be a bit like Harry Potter but without the magic. “It explains the wonders of the universe,” said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong for the first time over 10 years ago.

In 2014, a movie called “The Theory of Everything” was on show. It was based on Hawking’s life. Hawking praised the film and said it made him think over his own life. “Although I'm disabled, I have been successful in my scientific work,” Hawking wrote on Facebook in November 2014. “I travel widely and have been to Antarctica and Easter Island, down in a submarine and up on a zero-gravity flight. One day, I hope to go into space.”

31. Why did Stephen Hawking’s parents move to Oxford from North London?

A. Because they liked it better than North London.

B. Because there was a world-famous university there. C. Because they were tired of living in North London.

D. Because it was safer to give birth to a baby in Oxford.

Autumn and winter are cold and flu seasons. Will the old advice about dressing warmly help prevent a cold, or if you get sick, should you follow the old saying “Feed a cold and starve（挨饿）a fever”? And what about that fever? Should you take medicine to reduce your temperature, or is it better to let the body treat the fever itself? Everyone seems to have an answer. But is popular wisdom valuable?

Doctor Nelson knows a lot about cold and flu seasons. Nelson says research may be just starting to provide proofs for long-held beliefs. For example, scientists for years were against the idea that getting cold and wet might cause colds or flu. But recent studies have shown that cold temperatures cause stress on the body, and that stress can create something more likely to lead to viruses. So maybe it is really important to wear warmly before going outside.

And what about feeding a cold and starving a fever? Nelson says if you have a cold and are hungry, you should eat. But a fever, especially a high one, suggests a more serious problem. He says people are usually not hungry when they have a high fever. Eating might even make a person sick. But drinking enough water is important. A fever easily makes the body lose water.

Finally, when should you treat a fever? Nelson says a fever should be treated if it stays at 40℃ or above for a day or more. A high temperature can damage brain cells（细胞）. The doctor also believes in treating a fever if it prevents a person from sleeping.

Medicine like aspirin, for example, can be used to reduce pain and fever. But aspirin should not be given to children because it can cause serious problems.

36. According to the passage, which are cold and flu seasons?

A. Spring and summer. B. Autumn and summer. C. Autumn and winter. D. Summer and winter.

37. We can learn from the passage that Doctor Nelson .

A. doesn’t believe in the old advice about preventing colds

B. is now trying his best to provide proofs for long-held beliefs

C. thinks a fever needn’t be treated even if it prevents someone from sleeping

D. thinks you needn’t go to a doctor at once if you have a temperature of 40℃

38. According to Doctor Nelson, if someone catches a fever, he should .

A. take a bath in cold water B. drink enough water

C. try to eat something D. take some exercise outside

39. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. Why people should eat when having a cold. B. When people should treat a fever.

C. What the medicine aspirin is used for.

D. Whether the old advice about preventing a cold is valuable.
