概括大意文章及译文第六篇 How we form first impression我们是如何形成第一印象的对刚刚遇到的人我们都会有第一印象，为什么？除去一些描述或显而易见的特征，我们很可能对他们一无所知，那为什么我们他们形成主观的看法呢？这与你的大脑如何感知世界是息息相关的。

大脑对面部特征十分敏感，即使是在眼睛、耳朵或嘴部的位置的差异也会使大脑察觉到这个人是“不同的”。

实际上，大脑一直在不断地对接收到的感官信息——也就是影像和声音——进行处理。

大脑将这些“信号”与储存在脑皮层系统的大量“记忆” 相比较，以便确定这些新收到的信号的“意思”。

如果你在学校看到某个你认识而且喜欢的人，你的大脑会做出“熟悉安全”的判断；如果你看见了一个陌生的人，你的大脑会告诉你“陌生，有潜在的威胁”。

紧接着你的大脑会开始将这个陌生人的特征与“已知”的记忆进行比较。

包括身高、体重、穿着、种族、手势以及音调等。

特征越不相符，大脑越会告诫你，“这是陌生人，我不喜欢这个人”，或“我很好奇”。

大脑也可能观察到一张新面孔，但却有着熟悉的穿着、种族特征和手势——像你的朋友，这时大脑会告诉你“我喜欢这个人”。

但这些第一印象却可能是完全错误的。

当区分人时，我们会用一种不成熟的思维方式（与小孩子的那些不成熟的想法没区别）去对别人做出简单并且绝对性的判断。

（这样的后果是）我们将人区分为蠢货、反常的人或怪人，而不是对人的深度和广度，即历史、兴趣、价值、长处或真正的性格有所了解。

但是，如果对刻板印象加以抑制，我们就会有机会对一个人有真正的了解。

如果我们花一些时间与一个人在一起，倾听他或她的生活、希望和梦想，了解了这个人的性格，我们才会用一种不同的、更成熟的方式——用脑皮层中最复杂的区域——去思考。

这会使我们更富有人情味。

For now, such devices 2 only available for fleets of trucks 4 and specialist vehicles used on construction sites. But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down to ordinary cars 5, and 3 be available to ordinary cars in the UK 4 two months.The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the car incorporates 6 5 miniature cellphone, a microprocessor and memory, and a GPS 7 satellite positioning receiver. 6 the car is stolen, a coded cellphone signal will tell the unit to block the vehicle‟s engine management system and prevent the engine 7 restarted. There are even plans for immobilizers 8 shut down vehicles on the moves 8, though there are fears over the safety implications of such a system.In the UK, an array of 9 technical fixes 10is already making 9 harder for car thieves. “The pattern of vehicles crime has changed.” says Martyn Randall of Thatcham, a security research organization based in Berkshire 11 that is funded in part 10 the motor insurance industry.

In the UK, technologies like this 13 achieve a 31 per cent drop in vehicle-related crime 15 since 1997.But determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars. Often by getting hold of the owner‟s keys in a burglary. In 2000, 12 pe r cent of vehicles stolen in the UK were taken by using the owner‟s keys, which doubles the previous year‟s figure.Remote-controlled immobilization system would 14 a major new obstacle in the criminal‟s way by making such thefts pointless.

完形填空第一篇 A Life with BirdsFor nearly 17 years David Cope has worked as one of the Tower of London's yeoman warders(伦敦塔看守),_better（更…）known to tourists as beefeaters. David, 64, lives in a three-bedroomed flat right at the top（顶部）of the Byward Tower, one of the gatehouses. " From （从）our bedroom we have a marvelous(a.奇妙的，不可思议的) view of Tower Bridge and the Thames, " says David.The Tower of London is famous for（以..而著名）its ravens(n.乌鸦，黑色的鸟), the large black birds which have lived there for over three centuries. David was immediately fascinated(着迷，吸引) by the birds and when he was _ offered(提供)__ the post of Raven Master eight years ago he had no _ hesitation（犹豫）_ in accepting it. "The birds have now become my life and I'm always _ aware（意识到）of the fact that I am _ maintaining （保持）_ a tradition. The legend(传奇，传说) says that if the ravens leave the Tower, England will fall to enemies, and it's my job to _ make（确保）sure this doesn't happen!"David devotes（献身于）about four hours a day to the care of the ravens. He has grown to love them and the _ fact（事实）that he lives right next to them is ideal. "I can keep（关注）a close eye on them all the time, and not just when I'm working." At first（起初）, David's wife Mo was not _keen（对..感兴趣）on the idea of life in the Tower, but she too will be sad to leave when he retires next year. "When we look out of our windows, we see history all（所有）around us, and we are taking it in and storing it up for our future memories."第二篇 A Lucky BreakActor Antonio Banderas is used to breaking bones, and it always seems to happen when he's doing(做) sport. In the film Play It to the Bone he plays（扮演一个…）the part of a middleweight(n.中量级拳击手) boxer alongside Woody Harrelson. During（过程中）the making of the film Harrelson kept（连续）complaining that the fight scenes（场面）weren't very convincing(a.有说服力的，令人信服的), so one day he suggested that he and Banderas should have a fight for real. The Spanish actor wasn't keen（对…热衷）on the idea at first, but he was eventually（最终）persuaded by his co-star to put on his gloves and climb into the boxing ring(拳赛场地). However, when he realized how seriously(认真地) his opponent（对手）was taking it all, he began to regret his decision to fight. And then in the third round, Harrelson hit Banderas so （太…以至于..）hard in the face that he actually broke his nose. His wife, actress Melanie Griffith, was furious(a.暴怒的，强烈的) that he had been playing "silly macho(a.雄壮的，男子气概的) games". "She was right," confesses(v.承认，坦白) Banderas, "and I was a fool to take（冒险）a risk like that in the middle of a movie."He was reminded（提醒）of the time he broke his leg during a football match in his native Malaga. He had always dreamed（梦想）of becoming a soccer star, of performing in front of a big crowd, but doctors told him his playing days were probably over. "That's when I decided to take up（开始）acting; I saw it as another（另外）way of performing, and achieving recognition. What happened to me on that football pitch（场）was, you might say, my first lucky break."第三篇Global Warming 全球变暖Few people now question the reality of global warming and its effects on the world's climate(n.气候，风气). Many scientists put（把…归咎于）the blame for recent natural disasters on the increase in（在）the world's temperatures and are convinced that, more than ever(任何时候) before, the Earth is at risk(危险) from the forces(暴力) of the wind, rain and sun. According(据说) to them, global warming is making extreme(极端的) weather events, such(例如) as hurricanes(n.飓风，暴风) and droughts(n.干旱，早灾), even more severe(严重) and causing sea levels all around the world to rise(上升) .Environmental groups are putting pressure(压力) on governments to take action to reduce the amount(数量) of carbon dioxide(n.二氧化碳) which is given off(排放) by factories and power plants, thus attacking(攻击) the problem at its source. They are in favour(赞成) of more money being spent on research into solar(a.太阳的n.太阳能), wind and wave energy devices, which could then replace existing power stations(装置) .Some scientists, however(然而) believe that even if we stopped releasing carbon dioxide and other gases into the atmosphere(n.大气) tomorrow, we would have to wait several(几) hundred years to notice the results. Global warming, it seems, is here to stay(停留).第四篇 A Success StoryAt 19, Ben Way is already a millionaire, and one of a growing number of teenagers who have made(制造) their fortune(财富) through the Internet. What(这) makes Ben's story all the more remarkable(a.卓越的，值得注意的) is that he is dyslexic(a.诵读困难的n.诵读困难者), and was told(告知) by teachers at his junior school that he would never be able to read or write properly(正确地) . "I wanted to prove them wrong(错了) ", says Ben, creator and director of Waysearch, a net search engine which can be used to find goods in online shopping malls.When he was eight, his local authorities(n.权威，权力，当权) provided(提供) him with a PC to help with school work. Although he was unable(不能) to read the manuals, he had a natural ability with the computer, and encouraged(鼓励) by his father, he soon began charging(收费) people $l0 an hour for his knowledge and skills. At the age of 15 he set(创建) up his own computer consultancy(n.咨询公司，顾问工作), Quad Computer, which he ran from his bedroom, and two years later he left school to devote(精力) all his time to business."By this time the company had grown and I needed to take on a couple(一些) of employees to help me", says Ben. "That enabled me to start doing(做) business with bigger companies.” It was his ability to consistently(始终如一的) overcome(克服) difficult challenges that led him to win the Young Entrepreneur(n.企业家，主办者) of the Year award in the same year that he formed Waysearch, and he has recently signed a deal worth(价值)$25 million with a private investment(n.投资，投入) company, which will finance(为…供给资金) his search engine.第五篇Traffic in Our CitiesThe volume of traffic in many cities in the world today continues to expand. This causes many problems, including serious air pollution, lengthy(a.漫长的，冗长的) delays, and the greater risk of（..的风险）accidents. Clearly, something must be done, but it is often difficult to persuade(说服) people to change their habits and leave their cars at home.One possible approach(方法) is to make it more expensive for people to use their cars by increasing(增加)charges for parking and bringing(收益) in tougher(严格的, 强硬的) fines for(因…而罚(款)) anyone who breaks(打破) the law. In addition, drivers could be required to pay for using particular routes at different times of the day. This system, known(为所熟知) as "road pricing", is already being introduced in a number(一些) of cities, using a special electronic card fixed(固定在..上) to the windscreen(n.汽车挡风玻璃) of the car.Another way of dealing(处理) with the problem is to provide cheap parking on the outskirts(效区) of the city, and strictly control the number of vehicles allowed into the centre. Drivers and their passengers then use a special bus service for the final(最后的)stage of their journey.Of course, the most important thing(..的事) is to provide good public transport. However, to get people to give up(放弃) the comfort of their cars, public transport must be felt to be reliable(a.可靠的，可信赖的), convenient(方便的) and comfortable, with fares(票价) kept(保持) at an acceptable level.完形填空译文第一篇有鸟陪伴的生活作为伦敦塔的守卫者之一的David Cope在那里工作了近17年，被游客们称为Beefeaters。

2015职称英语理工类B级真题(概括大意) 第3部分：概况大意与完成句子First Image-recognitions software1) Dartmouth researchers and their colleagues have created an artificial intelligence software that uses photos to locate documents on the Internet with far greater accuracy than ever before.2)The new system, which was tested on photos and is now being applied to videos, shows for the first time that a machine learning algorithm(运算法则)for image recognition and retrieval is accurate and efficient enough to improve large-scale document searches online. The system uses pixel(像素)data in images and potentially video—rather than just text—to locate documents. It learns to recognize the pixels associated with a search phrase by studying the results from text-based image search engines. The knowledge gleaned(收集)from those results can then be applied to other photos without tags or captions(图片说明),making for more accurate document search results.3)“Over the last 30 years,” says Associate Professor Korenzo Torresani, aco-author of the stu dy,” the web has evolved from a small collection of mostly text documents to a modern, massive, fast-growing multimedia datastet, where nearly every page includes multiple pictures of videos. When a person looks at a Webpage, he immediately get the gist(主旨)of it by looking at the pictures in it. Yet, surprisingly, all existing popular search engine, such as Google or Bing, strip away the information contained in the photos and use exclusively the text of Wed pages to perform the document retrieval. Our study is the first to show that modern machine vision systems are accurate and efficient enough to make effective use of the information contained in image pixels to improve document search.”4)The researchers designed and tested a machine vision system—a type of artificialintelligence that allows computers to learn without being explicitly programmed— that extracts semantic(语义的)information from pixels of photos in Web pages. This informationg is used to enrich the description of the HTML page used by search engines for document retrieval. The researchers tested their approach using more than 600 search queries(查询)on a database of 50 million Wed pages. They selected the text-retrieval search engine with the best performance and modified it to make use of the additional semantic information extracted by their method from the pictures of the Web pages. They found tht this produced a 30 percent improvement in precision over the original search engine purely based on text.23. Paragraph 1 _____24. Paragraph 2 _____25.

15年职称英语考试理工B 补全短文 15年新增第九篇 Lightening Strikes 英汉对译

第九篇Lightening StrikesThree years ago a bolt of lightning all but destroyed Lyn Miller’s house in Aberdeen—with her two children inside. “There was a huge rainstorm,” she says, recalling the terrifying experience. “My brother and I were outside desperately working to stop floodwater from coming in the house. Suddenly I was thrown to the ground by an enormous bang. When I picked myself up, the roof and the entire upper storey of the house had been demolished. The door was blocked by rubble, but we forced our way in and found the children, thankfully unharmed. Later I was told to be struck by lightning is a chance in a million.” In fact, it’s calculated at one chance in 600,000. Even so, Dr Mark Keys of AER Technology, an organisation that monitors the effec ts of lightning, thinks you should be sensible. “I wouldn’t go out in a storm—but then I’m quite a careful person.” He advises anyone who is unlucky enough to be caught in a storm to get down on the ground and curl up into a ball, making yourself as small as possible.Lightning is one of nature’s most awesome displays of sheer power. No wonder the ancient Greeks thought it was Zeus, father of the gods, throwing thunderbolts around in anger. 250 years ago, Benjamin Franklin, the American scientist and statesman，proved that lightning is a form of electricity, but scientists still lack a complete understanding of how it works.Occasionally there are warning signs. Positive electrical charges streaming upwards from trees orchurch spires may glow and make a b uzzing noise, and people’s hair can stand on end. And if you fear lightning, you’ll be glad to know that a company in America has manufactured a hand-held lightning detector which can detect it up to 70 kms away, sound a warning tone and monitor the storm’s approach.Nancy Wilder was playing golf at a club in Surrey when she was hit by a bolt of lightning. Mrs Wilder’s heart stopped beating, but she was resuscitated and, after a few days in hospital, where she was treated for bums to her head, hands and feet, she was pronounced fit again. Since that time，she has been a strictly fair weather golfer1. In fact, a golf course is one of the most dangerous places to be during a thunderstorm. The best place to be is inside a car!The largest number of people to be struck by lightning at one time was in September 1995 when 17 players on a football pitch were hit simultaneously. The most extraordinary aspect of the strike was the fact that 11 of the victims—seven adults and four children—had burn patterns of tiny holes at 3 centimetre intervals on each toe and around the soles of their feet.Harold Deal, a retired electrician from South Carolina, USA, was struck by lightning 26 years ago. He was apparently unhurt, but it later emerged that the strike had damaged the part of the brain which controls the sensation of temperature. Since then the freezing South Carolina winters haven’t bothered Harold, since he is completely unable to feel the cold.Animals are victims of lightning too2．Hundreds of cows and sheep are killed every year, largely because they go under trees. In East Anglia in 1918, 504 sheep were killed instantaneously by the same bolt of lightning that hit the ground and travelled through the entire flock. Lightning is also responsible for starting more than 10,000 forest fires each year world-wide.Lightning闪电Strike s攻击、罢工参考译文：雷击1. Three years ago a bolt of lightning闪电all but destroy ed破坏Lyn Miller’s house in Aberdeen—with her two children inside.译文：三年前，一道闪电几乎将林恩•米勒在亚伯丁的房子夷为平地，当时她的两个孩子还在屋里面。

Avalanche and Its SafetyAn avalanche is a sudden and rapid flow of snow,often mixed with air and water,down a mountainside.Avalanches are among the biggest dangers in the mountains for both life and property.All avalanches are caused by an over-burden of material, typically snowpack,that is too massive and unstable for the slope that supports it.Determining the critical load,the amount of over-burden which is likely to cause an avalanche, is a complex task involving the evaluation of a number of factors.Terrain slopes flatter than25degrees or steeper than60 degrees typically have a low risk of avalanche.Snow does not gather significantly on steep slopes;also,snow does not flow easily on flat slopes.Human-triggered avalanches have the greatest incidence when the snow's angle of rest is between35 and45degrees;the critical angle,the angle at which the human incidence of avalanches is greatest,is38degrees.The rule of thumb is:A slope that is flat enough to hold snow but steep enough to ski has the potential to generate an avalanche, regardless of the angle.Additionally,avalanche riskincreases with use;that is,the more a slope is disturbed by skiers,the more likely it is that an avalanche will occur.Due to the complexity of the subject,winter travelling in the backcountry is never100%safe.Good avalanche safety is a continuous process,including route selection and examination of the snowpack,weather conditions,and human factors.Several well-known good habits can also reduce the risk.If local authorities issue avalanche risk reports,they should be considered and all warnings should be paid attention to.Never follow in the tracks of others without your own evaluations;snow conditions are almost certain to have changed since they were made.Observe the terrain and note obvious avalanche paths where plants are missing or damaged.Avoid traveling below others who might trigger an avalanche.雪崩和安全问题雪崩是雪掺杂着空气和水沿着山体突然迅猛地滑动造成的。

If their noses inhaled(吸入)a certain type of air pollution when they were pregnant. That's the finding of a new study. Released when things aren't burned completely, this pollution is known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, or PAHs. The biggest sources of these PAHs: the burning of fossil fuels, wood and trash.Frederica Perera works at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health is New York City. She researches how exposure to things in the environment affects children's health in a new study, she and her team studied the exposure to air pollution of 233 nonsmoking pregnant women in New York City. Because burning tobacco can spew(排放)PAHs into the air and lungs, Perera's team focused on nonsmokers. The researchers wanted to probe(探查)other sources of PAHs, ones that's would have been hard for an individual to avoid.The team started by testing the blood of each woman during pregnancy. The reason Any PAHs in a woman's blood would also be available to the baby in her womb. Nine years later, the researchers investigated signs of attention problems in those children, now age 9. They asked each child's mother a series of questions. These included whatever her child had problems doing things that needed sustained(长期的)mental effort, such as homework orgames with friends. The scientists also asked if the kids had trouble following instructions or made frequent, careless mistakes. All of these can be symptoms of a disorder called Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD. About one in U.S. children has ADHD.Among the women studied, traffic and home heating were the primary sources of air pollution exposure, Perera and her team suspect. Some of these women had low levels of PAHs in their blood. Ohters had high levels. Those with high levels were five times as likely to have children who showed attention problems by age 9. The new findings were published November 5 in the journal PLOS ONE.16.【题干】Perera and her team chose nonsmoking pregnant women all over America.【选项】A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】B17.【题干】The main purpose of the research was to find out how exposure to PAHs played a role in harming the subjects' physical health.【选项】A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】B18.【题干】Nonsmoking mothers were selected because the effect of smoking on PAHs was unclear.【选项】BA.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】B19.【题干】The blood of each woman was tested once a month during pregnancy.【选项】A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】C20.【题干】Kids with ADHD commonly fail in school.【选项】A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】C21.【题干】The women with high levels of PAHs in their blood were more likely to have kids with ADHD.【选项】A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】A22.【题干】Traffic and home heating were considered to be the biggest sources of PAHs for the subjects in the research.【选项】A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】A第3部分：概况大意与完成句子(第23~30题，每题1分，共8分) 下面的短文后有2项测试认识：(1)第23~26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第1~4段每段选择1个最佳标题;(2)第27~30题要求从所给的6个选项中为每个句子确定1个最佳选项。

阅读使人快乐，成长需要时间第一篇 Captain Cook Arrow箭 Legend传说库克船长弓箭的传说这本是个绝妙的传说，但DNA测试最终结束了这个长达两个世纪之久的古老故事。

传说是关于一支据说是用1779年在桑伟奇群岛死去的英国探险家船长詹姆士库克的遗骨刻成的夏威夷弓箭。

“There is __3_no___ Cook2 in the Australian Museum博物馆, museum collection采集manager Jude Philip said not long ago不久前in announcing宣布the DNA evidence证明that the arrow was not made of Cook’s bone. But that will not stop the museum from continuing to display陈列the arrow in its_4_ exhibition 展览_, “Uncovered: Treasures宝物of the Australian Museum,3” which _5dose include包含 a feather cape presented赠予to Cook by Hawaiian King Kalani, opu, u in 1778.在不久前DNA 证据宣布该弓箭并非来自于库克船长的遗骨时，澳大利亚博物馆收藏经理尤大书·菲利普说：“澳大利亚博物馆里并没有库克的遗骨。

”但这并不能停止博物馆在展览会上展出弓箭。

“考古发现：澳大利亚博物馆的宝藏”展览中的确还展示了一个在1778年夏威夷国王卡兰尼欧普送给库克的一个羽毛斗篷。

库克是英国最伟大探险家之一，他在1770年发现了“南大陆”，也就是现在的澳大利亚。

此后在桑伟奇群岛被棒击致死。

库克弓箭传说始于1824年，当时夏威夷国王卡莫哈莫哈在弥留之际将弓箭赐给了库克妻子的亲戚，一名伦敦外科医生威廉正当斯，并告诉他弓箭是在那次致命殴打后用库克的遗骨做成的。

第六篇Car Thieves could Be Stopped Remotely Speeding off in a stolen car, the thief thinks he has got a great catch. But he is in a nasty surprise. The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer and a radio signal from a control center milesaway will ensure that once the thief switches the engine 1 off , he will not be able to start it again.For now, such devices 2 are only available for fleets of trucks and specialist vehicles usedon construction sites. But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down toordinary cars, and 3 should be available to ordinary cars in the UK 4 in two months.The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the carincorporates 5 a miniature cellphone, a microprocessor and memory, and a GPS satellite positioning receiver. 6 If the car is stolen, a codedcellphone signal will tell the unit to block the vehicle’s engine management system and prevent theengine 7 being restarted. There are even plans for immobilizers 8 that shut down vehicles on the move, though thereare fears over the safety implications of such a system. In the UK. an array of technical fixes is already making 9 life harder for car thieves. “The pattern of vehicles crime has changed,” says Martyn Randall of Thatcham, a security research organization based in Berkshire that is funded in part 10 by the motor insurance industry.He says it would only take him a few minutes to 11 teach a novice how to steal a car, using abare minimum of tools. But only if the car is more than 10 years old.Modern cars are a far tougher proposition, as their engine management computer will not 12allow them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out by the ignition key. In the UK,technologies like this 13 have helped achieve a 31 per cent drop in vehicle-related crime sinceBut determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars. Often by gettinghold of the owner’s keys in a burglary. In 2000, 12 per cent of vehicles stolen in the UK were takenusing the owner’s keys do uble the previous year’s figure. Remote-controlled immobilization system would 14 put a major new obstacle in thecriminal’s way by making such thefts pointless. A group thatincludes Thatcham, the police, insurance companies and security technology firms have developed standards for a system thatcould goon the market sooner than the 15 customer expects. *第七篇An intelligent car Driving needs sharp eyes, keen ears, quick brain, and coordination between hands and thebrain. Many human drivers have all (1) these and can control a fast-moving car. But how does anintelligent car control itself? There is a virtual driver in the smart car. This virtual driver has “eyes,”“brains”，“hands”and “feet”，too. Themini-cameras (2) on each side of the car are his “eyes,” which observe the roadand conditions ahead of it. They watch the (3) traffic to the car’s left and right. There is also a highly (4) automatic driving system in the car. It is thebuilt-in computer, which is the virtualdriver’s “brain. ” His “brain” calculates the speeds of (5) other moving cars near it and analyzestheir positions. Basing on this information, it chooses the right (6) path for the intelligent cars, andgives (7) instructions to the “hands”and “feets”to act accordingly. In this way, the virtual driver controls his car.What is the virtual driver’s best advantage? He reacts (8) quickly. The mini-cameras are (9)sending images continuously to the “brain”. It (10) completes the processing of the images within100 milliseconds. However, the world’s best drier (11) at least needs one second to react. (12) Besides, when he takes action, he needs one more second. The virtual driver is really wonderful. He can reduce the accident (13) rate considerably on expressway. In this case. Can we let him have the wheel at any time and in any place? Experts(14) warn that we cannot do that just yet. His ability to recognize things is still (15) limited. Hecan now only drive an intelligent car on expressways.第八篇Why India Needs Its Dying VulturesThe vultures in question1 may look ugly and threatening, but the sudden sharp l declinein three species of India's vultures is producing alarm rather than celebration, and it presents theworld with a new kind of environmental 2 problem . The dramatic Decline in vulture numbersis causing widespread disruption to people living in the same areas as the 3 birds .Itis alsocausing serious public health problems 4 across the Indian sub-continent3.While their reputation and appearance may be unpleasant to many Indians, vultures have 5long played a very important role in keeping towns and villages all over India clean. Itis 6because they feed on dead cows. In India, cows are sacred animals and are 7 traditionally left in the open6 when they diein their thousands upon thousands5 every year.The disappearance of the vultures has 8 led to an explosion in the numbers of wilddogs feeding on the remains of these dead animals. There are fears that rabies may _ 9 increaseas a result. And this terrifying disease may ultimately affect humans in the region, since wild dogsare its main carriers. Rabies could also spread to other animal species, causing an even greaterproblem in the 10 future .The need for action is 11 urgent , so an emergency project has been launched to 12 find a solution to this serious vulture problem. Scientists are trying to identify the disease causingthe birds’ deaths and, if possible, develop a cure.Large-scale vulture 13 deaths were first noticed at the end of the 1980s in India. A population survey at that time showed that the three species of vultures had declined 14 by over 90 per cent. All three species are now listed as "critically endangered"8. As most vultures layonly single eggs and 15 take about five years to reach maturity, reversing their populationdecline will be a long and difficult exercise.第十篇Chicken Soup for the Soul：Comfort Food Fights Loneliness Mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, may be bad for your arteries．1 but accordingto a study in Psychological Science, they’re good for your heart and 2 emotions．The study focuses on “comfort food” and how it makes people feel．"For me 3 personally ,food has always played a big role in my family,” says Jordan Troisi,a graduate student at the University of Buffalo, and lead author on the study．The study came out ofthe research program of his co—author Shira Gabriel．It has 4 looked at non-human things thatmay affect human emotions．Some people reduce loneliness by bonding with their 5 favorite TVshow, building virtual relationships with a pop song singer or looking at pictures of loved ones．Troisi and Gabriel wondered if comfort food could have the same effect 6 by making people thinkof their nearest and dearest.In one experiment, in order to make 7 participants feel lonely, the researchers had themwrite for six minutes about a fight with someone close to them．Others were given an emotionallyneutral writing assignment. Then, some people in each 8 group wrote about the experience ofeating a comfort food and others wrote about eating a new food．9 Finally ,the researchers hadparticipants 10 complete questions about their levels of loneliness．Writing about a fight with a close person made people feel lonely ．But people who were generally 11 secure in their relationships would feel less lonely by writing about a comfort food．"We have found that comfort foods are consistently associated with those close to us．"says Troisi．"Thinking about or consuming these foods later then serves as a reminder of those close others．"In12 their essays on comfort food, many people wrote about the 13 experience of eating food withfamily and friends.In another experiment, 14 eating chicken soup in the lab made people think more about relationships, but only if they considered chicken soup to be a comfort food．This was a questionthey had been asked long before the experiment, along with many other questions, so they wouldn’tremember it.Throughout everyone’s daily lives they experience stress, often associated with our15 connections with others," Troisi says．"Comfort food Can be an easy remedy for loneliness．。
