wormhole and prevented my parents from meeting？"Most of us believe that the universe makes sense，"Greene said.Although there are several interesting theories about time travel，he added，the laws of physics would probably prevent something so illogical from taking place.The good news is that the time paradox (悖论) is open for future physicists to solve.
When asked how physics could become more exciting for kids，Greene said that books by Stephen Weinberg，Leonard Susskind，and other physicists，"make it a great time for people who want to learn about big ideas but aren't yet ready，perhaps，to learn math"．
When I pointed out that some students still might find physics boring，Greene said that the key is to teach them about things that are strange."The basic stuff is important，" Greene said."But I think it's really important to also describe the more modern ideas，things like black holes and the Big Bang.If kids have those ideas in mind，then at least some of them will be excited to learn all the details."
Greene has followed Albert Einstein's lead in trying to solve the mysteries of the universe.Now he wants kids to do the same.As Greene said，physics is "not just a matter of solving problems in an exam"．It's about experimenting，showing an interest in strange phenomena (现象) -and having fun!
语篇解读 本文是说明文。物理学家Brian Greene希望更多的孩子可以对现代物理学感兴趣。
1．A milliondollar question is probably very .
A．direct B．difficult
C．personal D．long
解析： 推理判断题。根据第二段Greene对这个问题的解释以及他说需要未来的物理学家去解决可知，作者提出的这个问题非常难。
答案： B
2．The books by Weinberg and Susskind .
A．are boring to read
B．are mainly about math
C．are popular science books
D．are only popular among kids
解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段的．..books by..."make it a great time for people who want to learn about big ideas but aren't yet ready，perhaps，to learn math" 可知，Greene认为Weinberg和Susskind等物理学家写的书浅显易懂，适合普通大众阅读，故这些书属于受
