\"Growing up, Einstein saw his father struggle to support the family and move the family for different jobs, Einstein had to move between schools and it was challenging for him to catch up with his new class.\"

This story about the struggles(奋斗) of famous scientists can't be found in your science

textbook, but a new study suggested maybe it should be.

In the study, 402 9th-and 10th-grade students from four New York City high' schools in

英语试题 第5页共8页①

low-income areas were divided into three groups. The students read some 800-word stories about Albert Einstein and Marie Curie. The control group read a regular science textbook description about their great achievements. Another group read about the scientists' personal struggles, like Einstein's running away from Nazi Germany. The third group read about the scientists' intellectual struggles, as they tried different experiments--and failed.

As it turned out, the students who had read about scientists' struggles, whether personal or intellectual, had higher grades than students who had read about achievements. Those who weren't getting good grades to begin with gained the most. Those in the control group not only didn't see a grade increase, they had lower grades than the grading before the study began.

\"We think that struggle stories showed scientists' weaknesses,\" the researchers write, \"which creates a sense of connection between the students and scientists. And that may make it easier for students to see them as role models.\"

\"When kids think Einstein is a talent who is untouchable, then they believe they will never get there,\" said lead researcher Xiaodong Lin-Siegler, PHD.

If we want to educate a future generation of great scientists, we can start by changing the way we talk about the great scientists of the past. An 800-word story about scientists' failures, not just their achievements, m science textbooks will make it happen. 42. What does the article mainly talk about?

A. Learning about straggles of scientists may help students succeed in science. B. Reading stories of scientists' achievements will help educate future scientists. C. Science textbooks should describe scientists' failures instead of their achievements. D. Stories of scientists' struggles may make students see scientists as being untouchable.

43. From Paragraph 4, we can know that___________. A.' those good at science achieved most from this exercise B. the control group had lower grades than the other two groups C. the students' grades in the control group remained-~he same D. the students in the third group had the highest grades 44. What's the main idea for Paragraphs 5 and 6 ? A. Findings of the study.

B. Explanations from the researchers. C. Process of the study.

D. Suggestions from the researchers.

45. In the study, which of the following would the third group probably read?

A. Einstein won many awards in his life, including the 1921 Nobel Prize in physics. B. Going to college was hard for Curie because at that time women were not allowed to attend school. So, Curie had to study at secret classes.

C. By the time she reached college, Curie was able to understand five languages that top scientists spoke at that time.

D. Often working hour after hour and day after day, Curie devtoted herself to solving challenging problems and learning from her mistakes.

Paper money is cheaper to make and easier to carry. These advantages made it more popular than other forms of money. But now, in the digital age, paper money seems to be disappearing for the same reason.

China seems to be heading towards becoming a cashless society. From supermarkets to street stores, people pay by using the Wechat Wallet and Alipay apps on their mobile phones. Sweden is even closer to a future without paper money. Many Swedish banks no longer even have cash on hand.

But there are worries about creating cashless societies. Some say it is unfair to the poor and people without much education. It's not easy for them to open bank accounts or deal with mobile phones. And if all of your money is \"digital\

Is paper money going away? Although paper money is used less than electronic payment in some countries, it won't disappear at once in most parts of the world. 66. When did the fifth edition of RMB come out?
