Most great singers have had learnt singing lessons since childhood.Occasionally，though，a great voice comes through untrained，a voice that is unbelievably，naturally beautiful.Mahalia Jackson had such a voice.Without having had a lesson，she was able to attract listeners with her magnificent voice that never seemed forced or pretended.
Mahalia Jackson was a gospel singer.She preferred to sing the soul music or folk songs rather than popular songs or rocks.Since financial rewards didn’t concern her，she refused many opportunities to become wealthy.She sang for the simple country people and also for the rich，sometimes.But she never changed her style or her point of view.
At one point，after some discussions，her husband advised her to try out for a regular stage role.Then，she reluctantly paid 2.5 dollars for a song sheet and went to the interview.All the judges agreed to offer her the part，for they were highly impressed.At this point，however，her husband got a job，and she turned down the offer.She wanted to go on singing at concerts.
Mahalia Jackson was a down－to－earth person，showing no self－pride.She considered her singing talent a gift from God and accepted it humbly.She would help box－office clerks and would even help sell tickets out front，if necessary.Therefore，she was loved by people around her.
Perhaps Mahalia Jackson’s greatest moment was singing The Star－Spangled Banner at President John F．Kennedy’s inauguration(就职仪式)．The national anthem may never have been sung better.

Thomas Jefferson，the third president of the United States，was a good and tireless writer，and he wrote The Declaration of Independence.There is much we can learn from him.Here are some of the things he said and wrote：
Go and see.Jefferson believed that a free man obtains knowledge from many sources besides books，and personal investigation is important as well.
Judge for yourself.Jefferson refused to accept other people’s opinions without careful thought.“Neither believe nor reject anything，” he wrote to his nephew.
Learn from everyone.Jefferson once visited the French nobleman，Lafayette，and said to him，“You must go into the people’s home as I have done，look into their cooking pots and eat their bread.If you will only do this，you may find out why people are dissatisfied.”
Do what you believe is right.In a free country，there will always be conflicting ideas，and this is a source of strength.It is not unquestioning agreement but conflict that keeps freedom alive.Though Jefferson was for many years the object of strong criticism，he never answered his critics.He expressed his philosophy，“There are two sides to every question.If you take one side with decision and act on it with effect，those who take the other side will of course resent(憎恶)your actions.”
Trust the future and trust the young.Jefferson felt that the present should never be chained to customs which have lost their usefulness.“The earth belongs to the living generation.” He didn’t fear new ideas，nor did he fear the future.“How much pain has been caused by evils which have never happened？” he remarked，“I expect the best，not the worst.”

Moving to a new neighborhood，town，state，or even country can be a pretty scary experience.All you know is that things will be different and chances are you won’t know the kids at your new school.
The experiences that go with moving make many kids feel nervous and worried.This is perfectly normal but don’t let these emotions overrun your thoughts! You will soon get used to your surroundings and find new friends at your new school.
Leaving old friends and familiar places behind can be difficult.However，as you begin the moving process，keep in mind that saying goodbye to your old house，school，and friends does not mean that you have to forget them or that your farewell is permanent！If you’re moving to a new state or even a different country and won’t see your friends for a long time，don’t despair.
Make sure to ask everyone for their address so you can write them letters.Also，thanks to the Internet，it is very easy to stay in touch through email or instant messaging technologies.With your parent’s permission，you can even create a blog or web page to chronicle all of your new experiences.Include your thoughts，tales of your new adventures，even pictures of new friends，your new house，and new town.Your old friends will love seeing what you are busy with.
Many schools have an orientation program where a student already established at the school shows a new student around for their first week.This can help you to find your way around the school and to make new friends faster.
While moving is tough on kids of any age，high school counselor Karen Turner says moves can be particularly difficult for teens.“I think moving during adolescents is an extremely stressful experience，especially if you are into your junior high or senior year.Students tend to have established a very strong peer network during that period in their lives.Often this has more influence on them even than their families in some cases，and when they are torn from that there’s often resentment(怨气)．”However，Turner adds that while moving isn’t easy，there are things that your parents and the school can do to help you cope with the change.

Since around the later part of the 1950s，society started to realize that tobacco cigarettes caused health problems.As research progressed along with increasing numbers of people that developed lung cancer，emphysema，and other smoking related illnesses，cigarette smoking has become less accepted and popular.Unfortunately，the nicotine contained in cigarettes is one of the most addictive substances on the planet and makes quitting smoking one of the hardest things to do.In 2003，Chinese pharmacist，Hon Lik invented the electronic cigarette as a safer，and cleaner way to breathe in nicotine after his father，a heavy smoker，passed away from lung cancer attributed to smoking tobacco cigarettes.
Hon Lik applied for his first patent on the electronic cigarette in 2003 and afterwards introduced e－cigs to the Chinese Market in the following year through his employer，Golden Dragon Holdings.Golden Dragon Holdings later changed the company name to “Ruyan” in order to better match the company’s name(Ruyan means “almost like smoke”)to the new product.Since the renaming，the Ruyan company has continued e－cigarette development and grown to be one of the largest global e－cig manufacturers.
Dr.Sam Han，CEO of Cixi E－CIG Technology，Inc.Ltd.is also attributed with a number of e－cig related inventions to include four patents in the United States and two in China that are electronic cigarette and e－liquid technology related.Similar to Hon Lik，Dr.Han was a heavy smoker for more than 40 years before beginning to work on electronic cigarette technologies in order to help himself and others make the shift to vapor smoking.Dr.Han continues to market and conduct R&D in e－cig related technologies to this date.
48．How many years is it since the Electronic Cigarette was first invented according to the passage?
A．About 5 years. B．About 10 years.
C．About 15 years D．More than 20 years.
49．What’s the direct reason why Hon Lik invented the electronic cigarette according to the passage?
A．Tobacco cigarettes caused health problems.
B．Tobacco cigarettes were too expensive for consumers to buy.
C．Quitting smoking became one of the hardest things to do.
