　　Fermi Problem

　　On a Monday morning in July, the world's first atom bomb exploded in the New Mexico desert. Forty seconds later, the shock waves reached the base camp where the Italian-American physicist Enrico Fermi and his team stood. After a mental calculation, Fermi announced to his team that the bomb's energy had equated 10,000 tons of TNT. The bomb team was impressed, but not surprised. Fermi's genius was known throughout the scientific world. In 1938 he had won a Nobel Prize. Four years later he produced the first nuclear chain reaction, leading us into the nuclear age. Since Fermi's death in 1954,no physicist has been at once a master experimentalist and a leading theoretician.

　　Like all virtuosos, Fermi had a distinctive style. He preferred the most direct route to an answer. He was very good at dividing difficult problems into small, manageable bits--talent we all can use in our daily lives.

　　To develop this talent in his students. Fermi would suggest a type of question now known as a Fermi problem. Upon first hearing one of these, you haven't the remotest notion of the answer, and you feel certain that too little information had been given to solve it. Yet when the problem is broken into sub-problems, each answerable without the help of experts or books, you can come close to the exact solution.

　　Suppose you want to determine Earth's circumference without looking it up. Everyone knows that New York and Los Angeles are about 3,000 miles apart and that the time difference between them is three hours. Three hours is one-eighth of a day, and a day is the time it takes the planet to complete one rotation, so its circumference must be eight times 3,000 or 24,000 miles. This answer differs from the true value, 24,902.45 miles, by less than four percent.

　　Ultimately the value of dealing with everyday problems the way Fermi did lies in the rewards of making independent discoveries and inventions. It doesn't matter whether the discovery is as important as determining the power of an atom or as small as measuring the distance between New York and Los Angeles. Looking up the answer, or letting someone else find it, deprives you of the pleasure and pride that accompany creativity, and deprives you of an experience that builds up self-confidence. Thus, approaching personal dilemmas as Fermi problems can become a habit that enriches your life.

　　16　Fermi's team was impressed by Fermi's announcement in the base camp because he could even work out the power of the atom bomb in his mind.

　　A　Right

　　B　Wrong

　　C　Not mentioned

　　17　Fermi, an experimentalist as well as a theoretician, won a Nobel Prize for producing the first nuclear chain reaction in the world.

　　A　Right

　　B　Wrong

　　C　Not mentioned

　　18　Dividing a big problem into small problems is a talent Fermi had and a talent that has practical value in life.

　　A　Right

　　B　Wrong

　　C　Not mentioned

　　19　Fermi problem is to develop the talent of breaking a seemingly unanswerable problem into sub-problems and finding the solution to it, which is a typical Fermi problem.

　　A　Right

　　B　Wrong

　　C　Not mentioned

　　20　Then the fourth paragraph tells us how Fermi solved the problem of earth's circumference without looking up.

　　A　Right

　　B　Wrong

　　C　Not mentioned

　　21　The last paragraph concludes the whole writing by stressing the value of important inventions and small discoveries.

　　A　Right

　　B　Wrong

　　C　Not mentioned

　　22　Fermi was famous for inventing a device to calculate bomb's energy accurately.

　　A　Right

　　B　Wrong

　　C　Not mentioned

　　第二部分：

　　16　A答案在第一段中可以找到。Fermi在作了一番mental calculation以后，得出了該原子彈具有相當于10，000噸TNT的爆炸力。

　　17　B Fermi在1938年獲諾貝爾獎，四年以后才建立核鎖反應。

　　18　A第二段的第三句是答案的依據。這個句子是：He was very good at dividing difficult problems into small，manageable bits--talent we all can use in our daily lives.

　　19　A答案的依據是第三段的內容。第一句中的this talent指第二段提到的將難以解決的問題分解成幾個容易處理的小問題。第三段對這種解決問題的方法又進一步作了描寫。

　　20　B第四段是為第二段和第三段的內容提供實際例子，即Fermi problem的實際運用，并不是Fermi本人運用Fermi解決問題的方法約略推算出地球的周長。

　　21　B最后一段是全篇的結論，強調了Fermi problem的價值：the rewards of making independent discoveries and inventions。

　　22　C文章根本沒有提到他發明了一臺能精確計量炸彈能量的儀器。
