Having a special，uncommon mind often goes hand in hand with unusual acts.Nikola Tesla is known for many inventions. One is the alternating-current(AC) electricity. While inventing it，Tesla was good at keeping things in mind，because he used picture thinking and imagined every step in his mind before even picking up a pencil. Tesla said he wanted to do it because of his mother，who invented small electrical machines when he was a child.In his later years，Tesla had many strange habits. He slept only two hours every night and dined at exactly 8: 10 p. m. After dinner, he'd often work until 3 a. m. Before bed，Tesla curled(卷曲)each foot 100 times，saying it was good for his brain.Another scientist encouraged by his mother was Albert Einstein，though what he got from his mother was a love of music. In fact，Einstein often played music on the piano and the violin to help him brainstorm.Einstein's achievements include the most famous equation(方程式) E ＝mc2 and his theory of relativity. However，thanks to his wild hair，he is also well-known for the looks of a “mad scientist” and you can tel l that he had some interesting quirks(奇怪的个性). For example，he had a strong dislike of wearing socks. And Einstein was so withdrawn(内向的)as a boy that he couldn't speak until he was three.Sometimes，the smartest of us are also the strangest. That quiet child in the corner may be the next Tesla or Einstein one day.9. How did Tesla remember things?A. By taking things down.B. By thinking in pictures.C. By drawing mind-maps.D. By reading aloud.10. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Tesla hated having to wear socks.B. Tesla did some foot exercises before bed.C. Einstein was outgoing when he was a child.D. Einstein was also famous for his hair color.11. What did Tesla and Einstein have in common?A. They both had great inventions of electricity.B. They both took up inventing because of their mothers.C. They both thought and acted in unusual ways.D They both played the piano for better working.12. What does the writer mainly want to tell us about?A. The special things about well-known scientists.B. The living habits of smart people.C. The mothers of Tesla and Einstein.D. The inventions of great people.DHow do we know the time? A clock，a watch or a mobile phone can help us. However，many years ago there were no clocks and knowing the time was not so easy. Over the centuries people have developed different ways of telling the time.About 5，500 years ago，the Egyptians invented the sun clock. This was a tall stone building. Its shadow(影子) showed the movement of the sun. So people were able to know midday. The Egyptians made a sundial (日晷) about 3，500 years ago. It was smaller than the sun clock and could let people know the time for half a day. On rainy days or at night it was impossible to tell the time with a sun clock or a sundial. Water clocks were the first clocks not to use the sun. The idea is simple. Water flows(流动) from one bottle to another. When the water reaches a certain level，it shows the hours. The Egyptians used water clocks about 3，400 years ago. These clocks were popular in the Middle East and China. But they failed to make people know the exact time.In the 13th century，the mechanical clock was invented. This was more exact，but it was expensive to make one. Over the next few centuries it was developed. For example，springs(发条) were added around 1500. This enabled people to get the correct time and allowed clocks to be smaller. In 1927，the first quartz clock was developed. Clocks became cheaper to build. It was also cheaper for ordinary people to own a clock. People began depending on them more and more to run business，markets and so on. More recently，in 1956，came the digital clock. And nowadays satellites send our mobile phones the time to the exact second.There have been a lot of ways in timekeeping. Clocks are always changing but some things never change. Many of us still have trouble getting out of bed on time and not being late for school or work.13. According to the passage，we can't use ____ to tell the time on a rainy day.A. the water clockB. the sun clockC. the digital clockD. the mechanical clock14. How many kinds of clocks are mentioned in the passage?A. Four.B. Five.C. Six.D. Seven.15. Which of the following shows the structure(结构) of the passage?(①＝Paragraph 1，②＝Paragraph 2，…)16. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The importance of time.B. The development of timekeeping.C. The inventions of clocks.D. The history of a digital clock.第二节阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。
