63．What attitude does the author take in writing this passage? A．Positive B．Negative C．Objective D．Critical C Srinivasa Ramanujan was one of India’s mathematical geniuses.He made wonderful contributions to the field of advanced mathematics. Even today, his mathematical theories and many unpublished notebooks filled with theoremsare so difficult to understand that they continue to baffle many mathematicians. Ramanujan was born in his grandmother’s house in Erode, a small village near Chennai in Tamil Nadu on Dec. 22, 1887. While he was still a baby, his mother took him to Kumbakonam, near Chennai, where his father worked as a clerk in a cloth shop. He went to the Town High School there in January 1898 and was a very good student. But his real gift was in mathematics. He got a scholarshipin his first year at the Government College in Kumbakonam, and he devoted more time to mathematics. In 1906, Ramanujan joined Pachaiyappa's College at Chennai. He passed the math test, but failed in all the other subjects. In the following years, he worked on developing his own ideas in mathematics. From July 1909, he published many papers and was becoming well-known in Chennai. In 1913, while he worked as a clerk in the Indian Mathematical Society, Ramanujan wrote to the Cambridge mathematician, GH Hardy, and told him about his work. Soon a regular relation developed between them. And in 1914 Ramanujan entered Trinity College, Cambridge. There, Hardy and Ramanujan began working together.' In 1916, Ramanujan graduated from Cambridge. But a year later he fell seriously ill. Ramanujan was elected as a member of the Cambridge Philosophical Society in 1918 and a member of the Royal Society of London. This was a great honor for him. At that time his health seemed to improve. But when Ramanujan arrived in India on March 13 that year, he was dying. Despite medical treatment, he died in 1920. 【
