At the moment, the note of the highest value which is generally in use is the 20-pound note. Now, the bank of England plans to introduce a new, 50－pound note. And the Bank is trying to decide which famous English man or woman to put on the back of the new note.Quite a problem. The B/ink usually chooses: safe, historical personalities. We already have Sir Isaac Newton, the scientist, the first Duke of Wellington, the famous soldier who led the British army at Waterloo, Florence Nightingale, founder of English Nursing and — of course — Shakespeare.So far, the list of possible choices for the 50 -pound note is quite predictable. There’ s Sir Francis Drake, to represent the achievements of English explorers in the sixteenth century, Then we have Lord Nelson, another sailor and the man who won the battle of Trafalgar in 1805 for England. ~The Bank will not forget music this time either. If they choose a woman, the feminist movement has two representatives: Boadicea, who fought against the Romans, or Pankhurst, who fought to get the vote for women early in this century. Which of the following statements is FALSE according to the passage（）

It was the ambition of an eleven-year old boy in Kansas City to be an engine-driver. Born without arms, he had been to special schools where he learned to use his feet as "hands". He spent all his spare time watching trains and one day his dreams came true. Seeing a deserted engine, the boy climbed in. He had no difficulty in starting it up with his feet. Soon he was traveling along at forty miles an hour. Signalmen could not see the young driver. So they set out to stop the train. Meanwhile the boy reached Missouri, stopped the engine himself, and then made it go backwards. When he was near home, a railway-man caught up with the engine and stopped it. At first he was very angry, but he smiled when the boy said simply, "I like trains. ""Well, I’ m glad you don’ t like planes !" answered the railway-man. Where did he learn to use his feet as "hands"（）

What is your favorite color Do you like yellow, orange or red If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, or an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays and blues Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don’ t choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but also more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray.Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don’ t forget that anyone can guess about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief or a lampshade. The author believes in the passage that（）
