Ⅳ. 阅读理解（本题共30分，每小题2分）

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出一个最佳答案。

Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on January 8th, 1942. He went to school in St Albans —a small city near London. Although he did well, he was never top of his class. After leaving school, Hawking first went to Oxford University where he studied physics, then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology (宇宙论). As he himself agreed, he didnt work hard. He was a very lazy student, and did very little work. However, he still got good marks.

It was at the age of 20 that Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him. He started to knock into things. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his mother was so worried that she made him see a doctor. Hawking was sent to hospital for tests. Finally, the result came out. Hawking had an incurable illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe or move without the help of a machine. Doctors said they had no way to help him. He would die before he was 23.

At first, Hawking became very sad. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later wrote, “Before my illness was found, I was very bored with life. There did not seem to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of things worth doing.” Hawking married, found a job at Cambridge University, and had three children. He also went on to do some of the most important scientific research.

Today, Hawking still works at Cambridge University as a professor. He strongly believes that his story shows that nobody, however bad their situation is, should lose hope. “Life is not fair,” He once said, “You just have to do the best you can in your own situation.”

These days experiences (经历) like many other things, are becoming increasingly expensive. One has to pay a lot to get even an ordinary one.

Not long ago, I wanted to invite my friends to have lunch. What we really need was a good and quiet place for a talk, not a big meal. So I chose one and told my friends to go there.

After I ordered, I was asked whether I would eat a 100 yuan or 200 yuan lunch. I said, “200 yuan.” I didnt realize until I was asked to pay after lunch, that “200 yuan” means “200 yuan for each person”.

There were five people that day, and all of us were surprised by the 200 yuan meal. The bill came at last, it was 1260 yuan—1,000 yuan for the five of us, plus the money for drinks, fruits and air conditioning (空调). I paid the bill without a word.

What could I say? It was not their fault(过失). It was my own fault that made me pay the largest bill in my life.

However, it was not so bad: we had a good lunch at a quiet place. Besides, the experience will help in later years.

To support my idea, I have developed my own way of thinking about the price: 200 yuan for the lunch and 1060 yuan for the experience. This paid experience has made me ten times wiser.

（）76. Now one has to pay ______.

A. more for a lunch in a restaurant

B. more to get an ordinary lunch

C. more for some experience

D. increasingly high price

（）77. I ordered a lunch ______.

A. so as to have a big lunch

B. so that we could have a good meal

C. in order to introduce my friends to the restaurant

D. to have a talk in a good place

（）78. I thought I ordered a meal that would cost ______.

A. me 100 yuan

B. me 200 yuan

C. us 200 yuan each

D. me 1260 yuan

（）79. The underlined sentence means ______.

A. my thanks to the restaurant

B. my happiness to be ten times wiser

C. my anger at the experience

D. my pleasure to have a good lunch

（）80. I paid the largest bill in my life because ______.

A. the restaurant cheated(欺骗) the customers

B. there was a misunderstanding between the restaurant and the customer

C. I was unknown to the restaurant

D. I knew little about the market prices
