Al herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.Al h
12、erpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw Herpin sle
13、eping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspaper. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only
14、 one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason?

One year, however, Mr. Smith made a lot of money in his business, so they decided to go to London and stay at a really good
19、hotel while they went touring around that famous city.They flew to London and arrived at their hotel late one evening. They expected that they would have to go to bed hungry, because in that small inn in New Jersey, no meals were served after seven. They were therefore surprised when the man who rec
20、eived them in the hall asked whether they would take dinner there that night.“Are you still serving dinner?” asked Mr Smith.“Yes, certainly, sir,” answered the man. “We serve it until half past nine.”“What are the times of meals then?“Well, sir,” answered the man, “We serve breakfast from seven to h
21、alf past eleven in the morning, lunch from twelve to three in the afternoon, tea from four to five, and dinner from six to half past nine.”“But that hardly leaves any time for us to see the sights of London!” said Mrs Smith.( )46Mr and Mrs Smith _ in the past.

25、for creating the World Wide Web, says he would never have succeeded if he had charged money for his inventions.“ If had tried to demand feesthere would be no World Wide Web,” Berners-Lee, 49, said on June 15 at a ceremony (仪式) for winning the first Millennium Technology Prize, awarded by the Finnish
26、 Technology Award Foundation. “There would be lots of small webs,” The prize committee agreed. The Internet had existed for nearly 20 years when Mr Berners-Lee launched(推出) the worlds first website in August, 1991.But the Net was little more than a collection of computer connected with cables.

Mr Berners-Lee found ways to connect documents and other information using hypertext links. The universal hypertext language he created allows all kinds of software to communicate

But Berners-Lees never devoted to commercialize(使商业化)or patent(取得专利) his contributions(贡献) to the Internet technologies he had developed.
