They are one of the most influential people of today's world. With practical advantages in engineering, medicine and technology, they have helped us to have a better understanding of the world and different working phenomena that govern us. Their names are remembered in the sands of time for their work in the welfare of mankind with different inventions that has made our modern lives easy. Here is a list of the four great scientists we've ever seen who changed the world. Louis Pasteur（1822-1895） Pasteur contributed greatly towards te advancement of medical sciences develop­ ing cures for rabies（狂 犬病）, anthrax and other infectious diseases. He also in­ vented the process of pasteurization（加热杀菌法）to make milk safer to drink. He probably saved more lives than any other person. Otto Hahn（1879-1968） Hahn1 was a German chemist who discovered nuclear fission（裂变）in 1939. He was a pioneering scientist in the field of radio-chemistry, and discovered radioactive elements in 1921. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1944. Nikola Tesla（1856-1943） （北京）股份有限公司 （北京）股份有限公司 （北京）股份有限公司 Tesla worked on electro-magnetism and AC current. He obtained around 300 patents worldwide for his inventions from electricity to radio transmission, but many inventions developed by Tesla were not put into patent protection. He played a key role in the development of modern electricity. James Clerk Maxwell（1831-1879） Maxwell made great progress in understanding electro-magnetism. His research in electricity and kinetics laid the foundation for quantum（量子）physics. Einstein said of Maxwell, ＂The work of James Clerk Maxwell changed the world forever. " 21. What contribution did Louis Pasteur make to society? A. The development of medicine. B. Radio-chemistry. C. Modern electricity. D. Quantum physics. 22. Who was thought highly of by Einstein? A. Louis Pasteur. B. Otto Hahn. C. Nikola Tesla. D. James Clerk Maxwell. 23. What can we infer about the four people? A. They are medical pioneers. B. They are Nobel Prize winners. C. They are founders of modern physics. D. They are great contributors to soci­ ety. B As my plane landed in Pamplona, Spain, I couldn't help thinking, “I'm crazy about going abroad and taking classes in Spanish. "My biggest fear was whether I would be able to communicate with Spanish speakers, and how I would be able to adapt to a cul­ ture that is different in so many ways from American culture. I had attended classes in Spanish and talked with native students for over a month but now it got better. When I first started, it was easy to get frustrated when I didn't un­ derstand parts of what my professor was saying, or to feel embarrassed when I had to ask someone to repeat themselves many times. However, people often politely cor­ rected me when I made a mistake, and also offered support and words of （北京）股份有限公司 （北京）股份有限公司 （北京）股份有限公司 encouragement. Noticing my own progress through my increased ability to have a conversation has made the frustration dissolve. And it helped me reach my biggest piece of advice to anyone facing the same fear:to force yourself to speak as much as pos­ sible. Another challenge I faced was culture shock when I arrived in Spain. As someone used to stores always being open in Seattle, I've had to get used to most stores being closed during afternoon hours and on Sundays. Plans are made much more slowly, and usually at the last minute, which for someone who values organization and certainty as much as I do, was difficult to get used to. The best way I found to deal with the culture shock was to change my views. I've grown to appreciate the Spanish attitude that there is more to life than work. Family and friends are important as well, and having so much time off allows life outside work to be enjoyed. Living abroad is always frightening, especially when the language and culture are completely foreign. There will always be challenges, frustrations, and problems. How­ ever, learning to deal with them and appreciate the journey has been one of the most valuable things I've learned while abroad. 24. What can be learned about the author before she began her life in Spain? A. She was well-prepared. B. She was concerned about her life there. C. She really looked forward to the new culture. D. She had worked very hard at learning Spanish. 25. What does the underlined phrase "dissolve" in paragraph 2 mean? A. Build up. B. Grow again. C. Disappear slowly. D. Displayed clearly. 26. What did the author do to deal with the culture shock? A. She tried hard to make friends. B. She lived the way the locals did. C. She made plans in advance carefully. D. She turned her attention to her study. 27. What does the author's story show? A. Culture shock can be too hard to go throu
