    Meghnad Saha belonged to an outstanding group of Indian scientists whose contributions revolutionised diverse branches of knowledge and earned global recognition．He introduced the teaching of Nuclear Physics in Calcutta University at a time when the world had not even witnessed the impact of Nuclear Energy．Together with S．N．Bose，he made the first English translation of Einstein's papers on r elativity．
    C．V．Raman （18881970）

    Dr Hargobind Khorana （ 1922）
    Khorana shared the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology in 1968 with Marshall W．Nirenberg and Robert W．Holley for cracking （破译） the genetic code．His researches have opened up a new branch called genetic engineering in science．In 1970 he became the Alfred Sloan Professor of Biology and Chemistry at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology where he continued his work．Apart from the Nobel Prize，Khorana has won many awards and honors for his achievement．

    5．We might not be alone in the universe．Actually，it may be confirmed as a very crowded place by new computer models developed to help identify habitable planets．
    Estimates of places where life can exist have been based on the possibility of them having surface water．But software recently developed by the Aberdeen University allows researchers to identify planets with underground water kept liquid by heat from planets．
    Water is fundamental for life and planets too close to the sun lose water to the atmosphere through evaporation．On the other hand，planets located in distant reaches from their star have their surface water locked away as ice．
    Sean McMahon，who is carrying out the work，explained："Traditionally people have said that if a planet is in this Goldilocks zone-not too hot and not too cold-then it can have liquid water on its surface and be habitable．"
    But this concept might change when considering that planets can receive two sources of heat-heat direct from the star and heat generated deep inside the planet．
    It is easy to observe it in our own planet．As you go down through the crust  of the Earth，the temperature gets higher and higher．Even when the surface is frozen，water can exist below ground．
    There could be immense quantities of water in fact-full of primitive life．
    Professor John Parnell，also from Aberdeen University said："There is a significant habitat for microorganisms below the surface of the Earth，extending down several kilometers"．
    "And some believe that the majority of life on Earth could even reside in this deep biosphere．"
    So the Aberdeen team are developing models to predict which distant planets might harbor underground reservoirs of liquid water with the possibility of alien life．
    28．What is considered as the symbol of life existence traditionally？D
    A．Solid water on its surface．
    B．Solid water below ground．
    C．Liquid water below ground．
    D．Liquid water on its surface．
    29．Why did John Parnell mention the fact about Earth？B
    A．To prove that there is majority of life on Earth．
    B．To prove that life may also exist in other planets．
    C．To prove that there is primitive life down through Earth．
    D．To prove that there is a habitat for microorganisms below Earth．
    30．What theory is the Aberdeen team's study based on？D
    A．Planets can lose water through evaporation．
    B．Planets can receive heat direct from the star．
    C．Planets can have their surface water locked away as ice．
    D．Planets can receive heat generated deep inside the planet．
    31．What can we know about the computer models？A
    A．They will help identify planets where there is life．
    B．They will help researchers find Goldilocks zones．
    C．They have helped find some significant discoveries．
    D．They have already located some habitats for life．

    6．Everybody gets angry，but out-of-control anger isn't good for you or those around you．So 
    here are five simple strategies to help you learn how to manage your anger：
    •Relax．Breathe deeply，from your stomach．（36）F Repeat it to yourself and visualize a relaxing time and experience．
    •Change the way you think．When you're angry，your thinking can get exaggerated （夸大的）．（37）A
     For instance，instead of telling yourself，"Oh，it's terrible!Everything's ruined，"tell yourself，"It's understadable that I'm upset about it，but it's not the end of the world．"
    （38）•C Statements like"This never works．"or"You're always forgetting things．"will make you feel your anger is justified （情有可原的） and there's no way to solve the problem．
    They might upset people who might be willing to work with you on a solution．
    •Have a better communication．Angry people tend to jump to conclusions．If you are in a heated discussion，slow down．（39）B And take your time before answering．Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head，think carefully about what you want to say．
    •Use humor．Psychologists say that highly angry people tend to think"things ought to go my way!""Silly humor"can help you get a more balanced perspective．So，when you feel that anger coming the next time，picture yourself as a king or queen，walking around，admired by everybody，and getting your own way in every situation．The more detail you can get into your
    imaginary scenes，the more likely it is to put a smile on your face．（40）G

    A．Try replacing these thoughts with more reasonable ones．
    B．Listen carefully to what the other person is saying．
    C．Be careful with words like"never"or"always"．
    D．Avoid using these strategies when you're in a tense situation．
    E．Try changing the topics so your talks won't turn into arguments．
    F．Then slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as"take it easy"．
    G．That will help you realize that the things you're angry about are really not very important．
