Inventor of LED
When Nick Holonyak set out to create a new kind of visible lighting using semiconductor alloys, his colleagues thought he was unrealistic. Today, his discovery of light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, are used in everything from DVDs to alarm clocks to airports. Dozens of his students have continued his work, developing lighting used in traffic lights and other everyday technology.
On April 23, 2004, Holonyak received the $,500,000 Lemelson-MIT Prize at a ceremony in Washington. This marks the 10th year that the Lemelson-MIT Program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has given the award to prominent inventors.
"Anytime you get an award, big or little, it's always a surprise," Holonyak said.
Holonyak, 75, was a student of John Bardeen, an inventor of the transistor, in the early 1950s. After graduate school, Holonyak worked at Bell Labs. He later went to General Electric, where he invented a switch now widely used in house dimmer switches.
Later, Holonyak started looking into how semiconductors could be used to generate light. But while his colleagues were looking at how to generate invisible light, he wanted to generate visible light. The LEDs he invented in 1962 now last about 10 times longer than incandescent bulbs, and are more environmentally friendly and cost effective.
Holonyak, now a professor of electrical and computer engineering and physics at the University of Illinois, said he suspected that LEDs would become as commonplace as they are today, but didn't realize how many uses they would have.
"You don't know in the beginning. You think you're doing something important, you think it's worth doing, but you really can't tell what the big payoff is going to be, and when, and how. You just don't know," he said.
The Lemelson-MIT Program also recognized Edith Flanigen, 75, with the $100,000 Lemelson-MIT Lifetime Achievement Award for her work on a new generation of "molecular sieves," that can separate molecules by size.
Holonyak's colleagues thought he would fail in his research on LEDs at the time when he started it.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned

M: Yes, I am trying to have fun. I think it's very important for me to socialize with my co-workers in the office. It is good but sometimes it makes it hard to get up in the next morning. If someone asks me to have a drink with him, it's hard to refuse. I am pretty sure that many people in Seoul like to drop into a caf or a bar after work.
W: How about the weekend? Do you stay home alone?
M: No, I don't like to be home alone. I often throw a potluck party at my apartment. I love the Korean food my co-workers are bringing in.
Who does the man like to enjoy time with?
A.His clients
B.His siblings
C.His associates
D.By himself

When we speak or write, we are using words to communicate our ideas and feelings. It is essential for people to use words effectively in order to communicate clearly. Although words may seem straightforward, they are as subject to misinterpretation as any other form. of communication.
Pictures can be a quite powerful form. of communication. You will understand this if you think of any great work of art. Businesses can successfully use pictures in posters, charts, signs, and packaging. When combining words and pictures, the design should be carefully planned out. The pictures used on posters and charts, as well as in brochures and advertisements, should complement rather than conflict with the words.
Action is an important form. of communication that we are often unaware of. As the adage says, "Actions speak louder than words." This medium is most important when dealing face-to-face with employees, colleagues, and clients. A frown, a handshake, a wink, and even silence all have meaning and people will attach significance to these actions. Just as it is important to choose our words carefully, it is also important to be aware of our actions and of how they may be perceived by others.
What is the main topic of the article?
A.Marketing
B.Communication
C.Actions
D.Businesses

In this crisis(危机) I think I may be pardoned if I do not address the House at any length today, and I hope that any of my friends and colleagues or former colleagues who are affected by the political reconstruction will make all allowances for any lack of ceremony (礼仪)with which it has been necessary to act.
I say to the House as I said to Ministers who have joined this government, I have nothing to offer but blood, toil(辛苦), sweat and tears. We have before us an ordeal(考验) of the most grievous (极大的)kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering.
You ask, what is our policy? I say is to wage (开展)war by land, sea and air. War with all our might and with all the strength God has given us, and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny(残暴) never surpassed (超越)in the dark and lamentable (可恶的)catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.
You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs--victory in spite of all terrors--victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.
Let that be realized. No survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for the urge, the impulse (动力)of the ages, that mankind shall move forward toward his goal.
I take up my task in buoyancy(快乐) and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men.
I feel entitled(有权利的)at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, "come then, let us go forward together with our united strength".
The first paragraph tells mainly about ______.
A.the crisis
B.the political reconstruction
C.lack of ceremony
D.all allowances
