His body of work extends to over 500 books. To add to that, he was never bound to a specific field. Although

26、most famous as a science fiction writer, he also published on many more topics.Part of this related to his gifted mind, but a bigger part was that he was well-educated. Many tend to think of being educated as the degrees we earn. Asimov did have a good degree, but his real education was broader than

27、 that. It was deeper than what he learned from instruction. It was his curiosity and his drive to push himself that took him from a young immigrant to maybe one of the most beloved US authors. As a young kid, he spent his days lost in his mind asking questions and creating imaginary worlds. He read

28、books, and he loved knowledge.In his autobiography (自传) its Been a Good Life, Asimov tells a story about an encounter he had as a child when his father asked him a question: “How did you learn all this, Isaac?” “From you, Pappa,” Asimov said. “From me? I dont know any of this.” “You didnt have to, P

29、appa,” He said. “You valued learning and you taught me to value it. Once I learned to value it, the rest came without trouble.” The mark of educated minds has nothing to do with how much they know. It has everything to do with the way they know and the way they go about knowing.Also, one thing that

30、many people dont know about Isaac Asimov is that he actually wasnt a full-time writer for most of his life. By personal choice, his day-job was as a chemist. One of the things that many polymaths (博学者) naturally do is explore a broad range of non-fiction topics. But something they tend to overlook i

31、s the knowledge they can obtain from fiction. Before Asimov fell in love with science, he was already attracted by fiction. It was his love of Greek myth and his reading of 18th and 19th-century classics that led him to become a great writer.1According to the passage, what is Isaac Asimov? AA belove

32、d US chemistBA full-time fiction authorCA productive sci-fi writerDA knowledgeable educator2From the childhood encounter, we can learn that Asimov father _.Aloved teaching Asimov knowledgeBexplored unknown fields with AsimovCrescued Asimov from troubleDtaught Asimov to value learning3Which of the fo

33、llowing might the author agree with?AA good degree reflects ones real education level.BPolymaths tend to look down upon Greek myth.CThe way to learn is more important than knowledge itself.DNon-fiction is not worth reading if one is to become a writer.4What is the purpose of this passage?ATo analyze

34、 the reasons behind Asimovs success as a writer.BTo introduce Asimovs childhood and his achievements.CTo emphasize the contributions Asimov has made.DTo call on the readers to buy Asimovs books.BIt was when I was attending high school that I first read Asimovs stories. At the time, a few science fic

35、tion magazines began to introduce this author, and to translate a few pieces from his “Robot Series”. Of Asimovs works, the one that left the deepest impression on me was Pebble in the Sky. This novel directly influenced my early science fiction writing. Asimov was one of the leading writers of west

36、ern science fictions Golden Age, so although his writing may not have a direct influence on writers of today, his underlying (潜在的) influence on many levels is undeniable the famous Three Laws of Robotics, and many classic writing techniques, for example. Asimovs novels are marked by a fully integrat

37、ed (完整的) logical system, and his stories are a pleasure to read. This is the reason his novels still attract readers today. Naturally, western science fiction has few people these days who follow Asimovs creative methods. But still the majority of Chinese science fiction readers would rather read th

38、e classic works of Asimov.Compared with the “Robot Series”, Asimovs “Foundation Series” is a little less well-known in China. In fact, the “Foundation Series” creates an entire world, even grander than that of the “Robot Series”; this science fiction had a direct influence on later western science f

44、dy Problem had mixed reactions after hearing about Tians involvement. Some expressed doubt about a studio that specializes in animation making a live-action movie. Others also argued that the universe described in the novel is too big and complicated for any filmmakers to portray on big screens. But
