阅读短文回答问题。      Kyra Komac, 28 years old, now has 25 furniture stores all over the country. The new store, in London"s
Camden High Street, takes her back to where it all started. She tells us about how the business began.
      When I was little, my mother began selling flowers in Camden Market. She couldn"t leave me at home on
my own, so I had to go to the market with her.
      To begin with, I didn"t have to do anything. I just sat there, and my mum told me jokes and stories so I
didn"t get bored. When I got older, I gave my mum a hand and I really enjoyed it.
      Then, one year, my grandma gave me a book for Christmas. It was all about making candles and I loved it.
I was 14, and I didn"t have to go to the market any more because mum could leave me at home on my own. I
spent my free time making candles of all shapes and sizes. I made hundreds of them. 
      One day, my mother was ill so I had to go to the market on my own. I decided to take some candles with
me and see if I could sell them. They were sold out in twenty minutes! The next week, my mum gave me some
money to buy some wax (蜡) to make more candles. They sold out really quickly, too. 
      Nine months later, we decided to stop selling flowers: My mum and I couldn"t make enough candles during
the week, so some of my school friends started to help us. I paid them one pound for every candle, and we used
to sell them for three or four times that. It was fun and my friends worked with me in the market. 
      At the age of 22, my uncle lent me some money and I opened my first shop in Portobello Road. Since then,
I"ve never looked back, even in difficulties. In the first store, we only sold candles, but now we sell everything
from designer furniture to paintings. Oh, and candles, of course. 
1. Where did Kyra"s mother sell flowers?
                                                                                         
2. What did Kyra do in her free time when she was fourteen?
                                                                                         
3. Did the candles sell well on the first day in the market?
                                                                                         
4. Who helped Kyra and her mum when they couldn"t make enough candles during the week?
                                                                                         
5. How did Kyra"s uncle help her to open her first shop?
                                                                                         
答案
1. In Camden Market.
2. She made candles of all shapes and sizes.
3. Yes, they did.
4. Some of her school friends.
5. He helped her by lending her some money.

     Every scientist has a childhood dream. A scientist in China once had a dream. He wished to grow a new
type of rice. This new type of rice would be as big as peanuts. This person is Yuan Longping - "Father" of
Hybrid rice (杂交水稻).
     Yuan Longping was born in 1930. He graduated from the Southwest Agricultural (农业) University in
1953. He came up with an idea for a Hybrid rice in the 1960s. Since then, he has devoted himself to research
and to the development of new varieties.
     In 1973, together with other people, he succeeded in the development of Hybrid rice. This made China a
worldwide leader in rice production (生产). In 1980, the technology (技术) for hybrid rice was introduced
to the United States. Now his "super rice" has been introduced to more than 20 other countries.
     Because of Professor Yuan"s hard work, China now produces enough rice to feed her people every year.
Last November an online survey showed that most Chinese believed that Yuan deserved (应得) a Nobel peace
prize.
     In his spare time, Yuan loves playing the violin and listening to music. Every night, he reads for half an
hour before he goes to sleep. He likes swimming, too. It is said that Professor Yuan is one of the richest
people in China. But he cares about nothing but his research.
