（完整版）2018年英语三级考试试题及答案解析2018成⼈学⼠学位英语考试试题I. Reading comprehensionPassage 1Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger (汉堡包) stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries. With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald’s is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald’s, called the Big Mac Index (巨⽆霸指数).That’s not to say that every nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald’s in India doesn’t serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans.Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism (沙⽂主义), and European nations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and "bad food." The next year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald’s, killing a 27-year-old employee. (76) (76)No one claimed responsibility.But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald’s is still widely seen as one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization.1. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE.A. McDonald's was founded in 1948.B. McDonald’s has opened its restaurants in every city of the world.C. McDonald’s has over 30,000 locations in the world now.D. McDonald’s was very small in scale in the beginning.2. The word ubiquitous in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean ____.A. very crowdedB. very deanC. existing everywhereD. occurring frequently3. From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that ____.A. McDonald’s designs its menu to suit the local peopleB. millions of young adults got their first job with McDonald’sC. the McDonald’s menu sticks to old-fashioned favorites such as the Big MacD. the low prices McDonald’s bring tens of millions of people through its doors every day4. What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest against McDonald's?A. They organized a strike.B. They protested outside a McDonald’s.C. They refused to go to a newly-built McDonald’s.A. 1998B. 1999C. 2000D. 2001Passage 2Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory （印第安⼈保护区）that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (76)He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (77) The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete(运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U. S Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1,500-meter race. The decathlon hasten track and field and filed events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered,“Thanks, King.”6. From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in ______.A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. OklahomaD. Sweden7. According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT _____.A. fishingB. huntingC. swimmingD. singing8. Jim Thorpe started to play sports _____.A. before he was nine years old.B. when he was 16 years oldC. when he was 24 years oldD. before his parents passed away9. The word decathlon in paragraph 3 probably means _______.C. throwingD. ten track and field events10. Which of the flowing is NOT TRUE?A. In 1912, Thorpe went back to finish his college education.B. Thorpe won two gold medals in the 1912 Olympic Games.C. Thorpe once played on a baseball team for money.D. In 1950, Thorpe was named the greatest American football player.Passage 3It can be really frustrating(使⼈沮丧的) for an overweight person to go to a gym and work out with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, “skinny”members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are , well, zaftig. It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that?Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classes or while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering(迎合) to overweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the “skinny” people are not allowed.There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.Trainers recommended functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌). (79)They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers. Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on their own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors, and tinted(有⾊的) windows for privacy, are all important changes.(80) Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and improve our fitness level, it’s a step in the right direction.11. The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.A. fatB. healthyC. friendlyD. polite12. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that ___________.A. most large gym chains really want members to show up frequentlyB. overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industryC. regular gyms don’t accept overweight people to participate in their programsD. overweight people have to pay extra to work out in a gym13. What is the training goal in the gyms catering to overweight members?A. To achieve functional fitness.B. To build six-pack abs.C. To look like a fitness model.D. To be able to run long distances.B. Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.C. There are larger mirrors on the walls.D. The training goals are more realistic.15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Improving Women’s Self-confidence through ExercisesB. The Traditional Gym Industry Is Losing Its CustomersC. The Fitness Industry Is Look for New DirectionsD. Specialization Gyms Designed for Overweight People16. When Bill came in, I ____ with my friends.A. will talkB. talkC. was talkingD. have talked17.

第一篇Its a Brand-new CenturyThe U. S. Treasury Department has redesigned the $100 bill, and has begun releasing the new currency recently. Treasury spent nearly 10 years on the redesign and has added a number of state of-the-art features: microprinting(微型印刷技术), color shifting ink, a polymer (聚合物) security thread. The most striking change, however, is the enlargement of Benjamin Franklins portrait: he now dominates the bill like a movie star in a newspaper advertisement.The money we carry around is so familiar that whenever a new bill or coin is introduced, it creates a ripple in our ordinary lives. But not much more than a ripple, and once few people use $100 bills regularly, most Americans greet the arrival of the new note with no stronger emotion than curiosity.Some foreigners, by contrast, have become clearly worried by the news of its arrival. Around the world, U. S. currency and the $100bill in particular is often treated as the ultimate repository(贮藏所)of value. The Federal Reserve estimates that two-thirds of all U. S. cash circulates outside the United States. In nations where inflation is high and where there are few credible bankinginstitutions from Latin America to Africa people save and conduct business in $100 bills. And with the U. S. issuing new $100bills,many abroad are worrying that the ones they already have are about to become worthless.The fear is most widespread in Russia. The Russian Central Bank estimates that somewhere between $15 billion and $20 billion of U. S. currency is in Russia,about 80% of it is the form of $100 bills. Everyone from small savers to businessmen and members of Mafia(黑手党)relies on hundreds, so the changes in the bill are causing high anxiety. Many Russians have already changed their meager(微不足道)supply of $100 bills into smaller U. S. notes. But over the next few years the Treasury plans to redesign every note except the $1bill.31 Which of the following statements is true concerning the releasing of the new $100 bill?A It has caused great disturbance among Americans.B Most Americans show a great interest in its new design.C All Americans feel only curious about it.D Most Americans exhibit no stronger emotion than curiosity.32 The fear of the new $100 bill is most widespread in those countries whereA the economic situation is unstable.B two-thirds of all U.S. cash circulator.C the old $100 bills will become more valuable.D there are too many old $100 bills circulating.33 Which of the following is true concerning U.S. currency in Russia?A The Russian Central Bank has $15 billion to $20 billion of U. S. currency.B 80 ~k of the $100 bills circulating outside the U. S. currency will be devalued.C There is a widespread fear in Russia that U. S. currency willbe devalued.D About 80 ok of U.S. currency in Russia is in the form of $100 bills.34 Why have many Russians changed their $100 bills into smaller notes?A The U. S. Treasure Department plans to redesign all notes except the $1 bill.B They are afraid that their $100 bills will lose their value.C Small savers, businessmen and members of the Mafia prefer smaller notes to $100 bills.D They have only a small supply of $100 bills.35 The redesign of the $100 bill has added all the following state-of-art features EXCEpTA the enlargement of Benjamin Frank portrait.B a polymer security thread.C the portrait of a famous movie star.D colour-shifting ink.第二篇&nb[1][2][3]下一页[1][2][3]下一页职称英语等级考试阅读理解模拟试题2sp; The Role of pressure Groups in BritainGeneral Elections in Britain are usually held only once everyfive years. Governments can seem to be remote from the people they represent. The process of protesting about government actions is very slow, even though everyone is permitted direct contact to their member of parliament. For all these reasons there is something of a vacuum between government and the governed, which pressure groups help to fill.。

Feed the World with Potatoes1. As food prices continue to rise rapidly,there is growingconcern ab out the effect it will have among the world’s poor.2. Increasingly, experts are looking to thepotato as a possiblelow-cost solution to feeding the hungry. To emphasize the issue, the United Nations has called the potato “a hidden treasure” and named 201X the International Year of the Potato. Here’s how potatoes could end the food crisis.3. The potato matures more quickly, on less land and in harsher climate than most other major crops. Up to 85 percent of the plant is eatable, compared with around 50 percent of cereals. Its broad adaptability to a wide variety of farming systems is also note worthy.4. Potatoes are an excellent source of complex carbohydrates,which is release their energy slowly, and have only 5 percent of wheat’ s fat content. T hey contain only a quarter of the calories of bread and,according to the Potato Center, when boiled, potatoes have more protein and nearly twice the calcium as corn. Additionally, they are good source of vitamin C, iron, potassium(钾)and zinc(锌).5. The food and Agriculture Organization recently surveyed food price inflation in over 70 of the poor countries. Cereal price inflation was much higher and far more widespread than for potatoes.A significant factor behind the potato’ s affordability is the fact that unlike other agriculture products, the potato is not yet a global commodity, and has therefore not attracted speculative investors. Raw potatoes are heavy and carrot during transmit, so global trade has been show to take off. Also, potatoes are susceptible(易受影响的) to infection with disease, hindering(阻碍) export. According to analysts’ estimates, less than 5 percent of potatoes are traded internationally, with prices driven primarily by local tastes instead of international demand.23. Paragraph 2__B___24.

全国职称英语等级考试样题(综合类)(3)第三篇The Child WitnessGoing to court can be frightening, especially if you are a child. You may have to stand up in the witness (证人) box, and swear (发誓) to tell the truth and answer questions is front of a crowd of adults. It would be even more frightening if you were the victim of a crime and you had to sit in the same courtroom (法庭) as the person accused of attacking you, for instance.So the law in Britain has made it easier for children to act as witnesses. Children are allowed to tell what they know, from another room in the same courthouse. This way they do not have to face all those people in the courtroom.It works on a closed-circuit (闭路的) television link, which means that the TV only operates inside the court. The child witness sits in a room with a social worker in front of a TV camera. Everyone in the courtroom can see the child on a TV screen, but the child can only see the judge and the lawyers who will ask him or her questions. The system has been so successful that is will be extended to more courts this year.Another way to make it easy for a child to act a witness isto set up a screen is the court room around the witness box so that the child cannot see the defendant (被告).Information given by children can be very important to a court trial (审判), but before 1988 the law did not really recognizes that children told the truth. It stated that anything a child said in court had to be supported by other evidence in the case.11. A child witness, if he were the victim of the crime, would be frightened most by ____________.○A. all the questions he had to answer○B. the crowd of adults he had to face○C. the judge and the lawyers○D. the person accused of attacking him12. The most important point of the new system that made things easier for a child witness is that ______________.○A. he does not see the defendant○B. he speaks in front of a TV camera○C. he is in another room is the same courthouse○D. everyone in the courtroom can see the child13. What does the author think of the new system according to the third paragraph?○A. Not very good.○B. Very successful.○C. Just an experiment.○D. Hardly acceptable.14. Has the law always recognized the importance of children's information in court?○A. No.○B. Yes.○C. Not until 1988.○D. Before 1988, yes.15. The word 'case' in the last paragraph means __________.○A. a particular situation○B. a particular incident○C. a trial○D. a box第二部分完成句子(25分)根据短文内容完成句子，每个空格只能填一个单词。

第一篇Telling Tales about People 讲述关于人们的故事One of the most common types of nonfiction, and one that many people enjoy reading, is stories about people's lives. These stories fall into three general categories: autobiography, memoir, and biography.1. This passage is mostly about the characteristics of autobiographies，memoirs，and biographies2. Helen Keller wrote an autobiography.3. Autobiography writers are not always objective because they want to present themselves in a good light.4. The writer introduces each category in the passage by defining it.5. Diverse means varied or different _.A. able to swim in deep waterB. similar or alikeC. varied or differentD. enjoying poetry第二篇Outside-the-classroom Learning Makes a Big Difference 课外学习带来很大不同Putting a bunch of college students in charge of a $300,000 Dance Marathon, fundraiser surely sounds a bit risky. When you consider the fact that the money is supposed to be given to children in need of medical care, you might call the idea crazy.1. An extracurricular activity like raising a fund of $300,000 is risky because most student leaders will not take an interest in it.2. American students join campus organizations mostly for gaining experience.3. Who is Katie Rowley? She's a senior student.4.

The tunes and the rhythms of their music combine African traditions with various forms of music popular today, such as hip-hop, rap, rock, jazz, or reggae. The result is music that may sound familiar to listeners anywhere in the world, but at the same time is distinctly African. It is different also in another way：Many of the songs are very serious and they deal with important social or political issues in Africa today.非洲国家的年轻音乐家们创造了一种流行音乐的新形式。

音调与旋律不仅有传统的非洲因素也有当下十分流行的各种形式，比如嘻哈、说唱打击乐、摇滚、爵士或者是瑞格舞。

这样就使这种音乐让世界各地的听者都觉得很熟悉，而它又是典型的非洲音乐。

这种音乐在另一方面也有所不同：很多音乐有着严肃的主题，与当今非洲重要的社会问题和政治问题相关。

So he went to Australia, stopping off in many countries beween. He alsodecided to writeabout the experience and produced a guide for other travelers making similar journeys.In 1970, British airports were used by 32million people. In 2004, the figure was 216 million. In 2030, according to government forecasts, it will be around 500 million. It’s a growth driven by the emergence of low cost airlines, offering access to all parts of the world for less than ￡100.This has made a huge contribution to global warming. One return flight from Britain to the US produces the same carbon dioxide (二氧化碳）as a year’s motori ng (驾车). A return flight to Australia equals the emissions (排放）of three average cars for a year. And the pollution is released at a height where its effect on climate change is more than double that on the ground.Mark Ellingham built his business on helping people travel. Now he wants to help people stop – at least by air.He is calling for a ￡100 green tax on all flights to Europe and Africa, and ￡250 on flights to the rest of the world. He also wants investment to create a low-carbon economy, as well as a halt to airport expansion.Mark Ellingham’s commitment is important because his readers aren’t just the sort of young and adventurous people who would happily jump on a plane to spend a weekend exploring a foreign culture.They are also the sort of people who say they care about the environment. It's a debate that splits people down the middle.The tourist industry has responded by offering offsetting (补偿) schemes. A small increase in the price of a ticket is used to plant trees.But critics say that it is not enough to just be carbon neutral. We should be actively cutting back on putting greenhouse gasesinto the atmosphere. And for the average person, making a plane journey will be his or her largest contribution to global warming. It maybe good to repair the damage we do. But surely it is better not to do the damage in the first place.16. Mark Ellingham spent quite a few days in China on his way to Australia 25 years ago.A.

The explosion flattened 80 million trees across an area of 2,000 square kilometers. The fireball was so great that, a day later, Londoners could read their newspapers under the night sky. What caused the so-called Tunguska Event, named after the nearby Podkamennaya Tunguska river, still remains a mystery.3 Experts suspect it was a rock that, after traveling in space for millions of years, was destined to crash to Earth at exactly 7:17 a.m. on June 30, 1918. This possibility worries scientists.“Imagine an unspotted asteroid (小行星) hitting a significant chunk(块) of land ... and imagine if that area, unlike Tunguska, were populated,” the British science journal Nature commented recently.4 But no fragments of the “rock” have ever been found. Finding such evidence would be important, for it would increaseour knowledge about the risk posed by dangerous Near Earth Objects (NEOs), say Italian researchers Luca Gasperini, Enrico Bonatti and Giuseppe Longo. When the next Tunguska NEO approaches, scientists will have to decide whether to try todeflect (使偏转) it or blowit up in space.5 However, several rival theories for theTunguska Event exist. Wolfgang Kundt, a professor at Germany's Bonn University,believes the Tunguska Event was caused by a massive escape of 10 million tonsof methane(甲烷)-rich gas from deep within earth's crust. Some people hold that the explosion was caused by an alien spaceship crash, or a black hole in the universe.23. Paragraph 2 C24. Paragraph 3 F25. Paragraph 4 E26. Paragraph 5 AA.

Alfred Nobel, the Swede who invented dynamite (炸药),established the prizes in his will in the categories of medicine, physics,chemistry, literature and peace. The economics prize is technically not a Nobelbut a 1968 creation of Sweden's central bank.Nobel left few instructions on how to select winners, but medicine winners are typically awarded for a specific breakthrough rather than a body of research.Hans Jomvall, secretary of the medicine prize committee, said the 10 million kronor (瑞典克朗)(US$1.3 million) prizeencourages groundbreaking research but he did not think winning it was the primary goal for scientists."Individual researchers probably don’t look at themselves as potential Nobel Prize winners when they’re at work,"Jomvall told The Associated Press. “They get their kicks from their research and their interest in how life functions."In 2006. Blackburn, of the University of California, San Francisco, and Greider, of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, shared the Lasker prize for basic medical research with Jack Szostakof Harvard Medical School. Their work set the stage for research suggesting that cancer cells use telomerase(端粒酶),to sustain(维持)their uncontrolled growth.31.Who is most unlikely to win the Nobel Prize in medicine?A. Hans Jornvall.B. Carol Greider.C. Pierre Chambon.D. Elizabeth Blackburn.32.Which is NOT true of Alfred Nobel?A. He left clear instructions on how to select winners.B. He was from Sweden.C. He invented dynamite.D. He established the Nobel Prizes in his will.33.Originally the Nobel Prizes did NOT includeA. the peace prize.B. the economics prize.C. the literature prize.D. the medicine prize.34.The word “kicks" in Paragraph 8 probably meansA. money.B. enjoyment.C. respect.D. knowledge.35.Telomerase may play a key role inA. the unchecked growth of cancer cells.B. the killing ofcancer cells.C. the division ofnormal cells.D. the transmission of viruses.第二篇Ethnic Tensions in BelgiumBelgium has given the world Audrey Hepburn,Rene Magritte (surrealist artist), the saxophone (萨克斯管) and deep-fried potato chips that are somehow called French.But the story behind this flat twice-Beijing-size country is of a bad marriage between two nationalities living together that cannot stand each other. With no new government, more than a hundred days after a general election, rumors run wild that the country is about to disappear."We are two different nations, anartificial state. With nothing in common except a king, chocolate and beer,'said Filip Dewinter, the leader of the Flemish Bloc, the extreme-right Flemish party.Radical Flemish separatists like Mr Dewinter want to divide the country horizontally along ethnic end economic lines: to the north, Flanders —where Dutch (known locally as Flemish) is spoken and money is increasingly made; to the south, French-speaking Wallonia,where today old factories dominate the landscape.The area of present-day Belgium passed to the French in the 18th century. Following the defeat of Napoleon in 1815,Belgium was given to the kingdom of the Netherlands from which it gained independence as a separate kingdom in 1830.Since then, it has struggled for cohesion (结合). Anyone who has spoken French in a Flemish city quickly gets a sense of the mutual hostility that is part of daily life there.But there are reasons Belgium is likely tostay together, at least in the short term.The economies of the two regions are tightly linked, and separation would be a crucial nightmare.。

2018年职称英语考试卫生类阅读理解练习题1职称英语考试阅读理解“ Salty” Rice Plant Boosts HarvestsBritish scientists are breeding a new generation of rice plants that will be able to grow in soil containing salt water. Their work may enable abandoned farms to bee productive once more.Tim Flowers and Tony Yeo, from Sussex University’s School of Biological Sciences, have spent several years researching how crops, such as rice, could be made to grow in water that has bee salty.The pair have recently begun a three-year programme, funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, to establish which genes enable some plants to survive salty conditions. The aim is to breed this capability into crops, starting with rice.It is estimated that each year more than 10m hectares（公顷） of agricultural land are lost because salt gets into thesoil and stunts（妨碍生长）plants. The problem is caused by several factors. In the tropics， mangroves（红树林） that create swamps（沼泽） and traditionally formed barriers to sea water have been cut down. In the Mediterranean， a series of droughts have caused the water table to drop， allowing sea water to seep（渗透）in. in Latin America， irrigation often causes problems when water is evaporated（蒸发） by the heat，leaving salt deposits behind.Excess salt then enters the plants and prevents them functioning normally. Heavy concentrations of minerals in the plants stop them drawing up the water they need to survive.To overe these problems， Flowers and Yeo decided to breed rice plants that take in very little slat and store what they do absorb in cells that do not affect the plants‘ growth. They have started to breed these characteristics into a new rice crop，but it will take about eight harvests before the resulting seeds are ready to be considered for mercial use.Once the characteristics for surviving salty soil are known，Flowers and Yeo will try to breed the appropriate genes intoall manners of crops and plants. Land that has been abandoned to nature will then be able to bloom again， providing much needed food in the poorer countries of the world.41 Which of the following statements about Flowers and Yeo is true？A They are students at Sussex University.B They are rice breeders.C They are husband and wife.D They are colleagues at an institution of higher learning.42 Flowers and Yeo have started a programmeA to find ways to prevent water pollution.B to identify genes that promote growth in salty soil.C to breed rice plants that taste salty.D to find ways to remove excessive salt from soil.43 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a cause of the problem discussed in the passage？A Natural barriers to sea water have been destroyed.B the water table has gone down after droughts.C Sea level has been continuously rising.D Evaporation of water leaves salt behind44 The word “affect” in Paragraph 6 could be best replaced byA “influence”B “effect”C “stop”D “present”45 The attitude of the author towards the research project isA positiveB negative.C suspiciousD indifferent.答案：DBCAA内容仅供参考。

2018职称英语考试时间2018年职称英语理工类阅读判断习题及答案Inventor,of,LEDWhen Nick Holonyak set out to create a new kind of visible lighting using semiconductor alloys,his colleagues thought he was unrealistic.Today,his discovery of light-emitting diodes or1 LEDs,are used in everything from DVDs to alarm clocks to airports.Dozens of his students have continued hiswork,developing lighting used in traffic lights and other everyday technology.On April 23,xx,Holonyak received the $500,000 Lemelson-MIT Prize at a ceremony in Washington.This marks the 10th year that the Lemelson-MIT Program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology（MIT）has given the award to prominent inventors."Anytime you get an award,big or little2,it"s always a surprise," Holonyak said.Holonyak,75,was a student of John Bardeen,an inventor of the transistor,in the early 1950s.After graduate school3,Holonyak worked at Bell Labs.He later went to General Electric4,where he invented a switch now widely used in house dimmer switches5.Later,Holonyak started looking into how semiconductors could be used to generate light.But while his colleagues were looking at how to generate invisible light,be wanted to generate visible light.The LEDs he invented in 1962 now last about 10 times longer than incandescent bulbs,and are more environmentally friendly and cost effective.Holonyak,now a professor of electrical and puter engineering and physics at the University of Illinois,said he suspected that LEDs would bee as monplace as they are today.But didn"t realize how many uses they would have."You don"t know in the beginning.You think you"re doing something important,you think it"s worth doing,but you really can"t tell what the big payoff is going to be,and when,and how.You just don"t know," he said.The Lemelson-MIT Program also recognized Edith Flanigen,75,with the $100,000 Lemelson- MIT Lifetime Achievement Award for her work on a new generation of "molecular sieves" that can separate molecules by size.练习：1.Holonyak"s colleagues thought he would fail in his research on LEDs at the time when he started it.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned2.Holonyak believed that his students that were working with him on the project would get the Lemelson-MIT Prize sooner or later.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned3.Holonyak was the inventor of the transistor in the early 1950s.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned4.Holonyak believed that LEDs would bee very popular in the future.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned5.Holonyak said that you should not do anything you are not interested in.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned6.Edith Flanigen is the only co-inventor of LEDs.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned7.The Lemelson-MIT Prize has a history of over 100 years.A RightB WrongC Not mentioned答案与题解：1.A 第一段第一句就说：“When Nick Holonyak set out to createa new kind of visible lighting using semiconductor alloys,his colleagues thought he was unrealistic.”2.C 通篇文章没有提到Holonyak相信他的学生将获得Lemelson-MIT Prize这件事。
