( T )Part Three PassagesPassage OneLyingWhat exactly is a lie? Is it anything we say that we know is untrue? Or is it something more than that? For example, suppose a friend wants to borrow some money from you and you say," I wish I could help you but I'm short of cash fight now." In fact, you are not short of cash, but because your friend always forgets to pay you back and you don't want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this. Is this a lie?A scientific study of lying shows women are better liars than men, especially when telling a "white lie" that doesn't hurt people. When a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress, she really thinks it looks terrible. However, this is only one side of the story. Other research shows that men are more likely to tell more serious lies. They tend to make promises and then they forget them. This is the kind of lie businessmen are particularly good at. They hope to make more money from these lies in some way.It has been found that when people lie, if they sit down, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual. It seems as if they were saying to themselves "I wish I were somewhere else now." It has also been observed that in some cases, liars sweat more than usual.I, Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to each of the questions you hear.1. Why don't you lend your friend money according to the passage? ( C )2. In which way are women better liars than men? ( A )3. Why do businessmen tell lies? ( D )4. According to the passage, which of the four choices is NOT true when people lie? ( B )5. Which of the four choices is true according to the passage? ( D )II. Listen to the passage again and complete the following sentences with the information youhear.1. Women are better liars than men, especially when telling a "white lie".2. A "white lie" is a lie that doesn't hurt people.3. Men are more likely to tell more serious lies.4. When people tell lies, if they sit down, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual.5. Scientists also have observed that in some cases, liars sweat more than usual.Passage T woA Little Private T reasuryMy wife is good in every way except that she's tight-fisted. Whenever I want to have some pocket money of my own, she would reply: "What do you want money for? For gambling, for dancing or buying presents for somebody?"But to live without money was really hard. Y our old friends or schoolmates came to see you in your office, and you couldn't take them out for a decent dinner. Wasn't this very embarrassing for a big and strong man like me?To help me, my colleagues put into me the idea of a little "private treasury "made up of money I got writing for newspapers.Gradually, I put together some money. I became generous and manly. I was grateful to the little "private treasury".Again my colleagues had advice: "Why don't you try your luck on lottery tickets?" I listened to them and bought three lottery tickets. My luck wasn't bad at all. I won the first prize: 4,000 yuan in cash. When I was asked by my colleagues what I would do with this money, I said: I’ll hand it over to my wife, for family expenses." Some of them thought this was a good idea, while most shook their heads.That night my wife tossed and turned and got no sleep. The following morning she said to me, "I always thought that men could only get into trouble with spare money. Now I realize I was wrong. Y ou must have had a hard time. Please forgive me."From then on, my wife never tried to keep me from spending money, and the little "private treasury" became unnecessary.I.

What did his colleagues advise him to do after he had saved some money? ( B )4. What good luck did the lottery tickets bring him? ( C )5. What made the wife realize that she was wrong about the man? ( B )II. Listen to the passage again and answer the following questions.1. What do you know about the wife?She is a good wife but she's tight-fisted.2. Why did the wife keep the husband from having some pocket money?Because she's afraid that her husband would gamble, dance or buy presents for somebody with the money.3. Why did the husband buy the lottery tickets?Because his colleagues advised him to buy them.4. What did the man do with the prized money?He handed it over to his wife, for family expenses.5.

Unit Ten Services: Rules for Growth and InvestmentThe General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) is the first and only set of multilateral rules governing international trade in services. Negotiated in the Uruguay Round, it was developed in response to the huge growth of the services economy over the past 30 years and the greater potential for trading services brought about by the communications revolution.Services represent the fastest growing sector of the global economy and account for two thirds of global output, one third of global employment and nearly 20% of global trade.When the idea of bringing rules on services into the multilateral trading system was floated in the early to mid 1980s, a number of countries were sceptical and even opposed. They believed such an agreement could undermine governments’ ability to pursue national policy objectives and constrain their regulatory powers. The agreement that was developed, however, allows a high degree of flexibility, both within the framework of rules and also in terms of the market access commitments.GA TS explainedThe General Agreement on Trade in Services has three elements: the main text containing general obligations and disciplines; annexes dealing with rules for specific sectors; and individual countries’ specific commitments to provide access to their markets, including indications of where countries are temporarily not applying the “most-favoured-nation” prin ciple of non-discrimination.General obligations and disciplinesTotal coverage The agreement covers all internationally-traded services —for example, banking, telecommunications, tourism, professional services, etc. It also defines four ways (or “modes”) of trading services:services supplied from one country to another (e.g. international telephone calls), officiallyknown as “cross-border supply” (in WTO jargon, “mode 1”)consumers or firms making use of a service in another country (e.g. tourism), officially“consumption abroad” (“mode 2”)a foreign company setting up subsidiaries or branches to provide services in another country(e.g. foreign banks setting up operations in a country), officially “commercial presence” (“mode 3”)individuals travelling from their own country to supply services in another (e.g. fashion modelsor consultants), officially “presence of natural persons” (“mode 4”)Most-favoured-nation (MFN) treatment Favour one, favour all. MFN means treating one’s trading partners equally on the principle of non-discrimination. Under GATS, if a country allows foreign competition in a sector, equal opportunities in that sector should be given to serviceproviders from all other WTO members. (This applies even if the country has made no specific commitment to provide foreign companies access to its markets under the WTO.)MFN applies to all services, but some special temporary exemptions have been allowed. When GATS came into force, a number of countries already had preferential agreements in services that they had signed with trading partners, either bilaterally or in small groups. WTO members felt it was necessary to maintain these preferences temporarily. They gave themselves the right to continue giving more favourable treatment to particular countries in particular services activities by listing “MFN exemptions” alongside their first se ts of commitments. In order to protect the general MFN principle, the exemptions could only be made once; nothing can be added to the lists. They are currently being reviewed as mandated, and will normally last no more than ten years.Commitments on market access and national treatment Individual countries’ commitments to open markets in specific sectors — and how open those markets will be — are the outcome of negotiations. The commitments appear in “schedules” that list the sectors being opened, the e xtent of market access being given in those sectors (e.g. whether there are any restrictions on foreign ownership), and any limitations on national treatment (whether some rights granted to local companies will not be granted to foreign companies). So, for example, if a government commits itself to allow foreign banks to operate in its domestic market, that is a market-access commitment. And if the government limits the number of licences it will issue, then that is a market-access limitation. If it also says foreign banks are only allowed one branch while domestic banks are allowed numerous branches, that is an exception to the national treatment principle.These clearly defined commitments are “bound”: like bound tariffs for trade in goods, they can only be modified after negotiations with affected countries. Because “unbinding” is difficult, the commitments are virtually guaranteed conditions for foreign exporters and importers of services and investors in the sector to do business.Governmental services are explicitly carved out of the agreement and there is nothing in GATS that forces a government to privatize service industries. In fact the word “privatize” does not even appear in GATS. Nor does it outlaw government or even private monopolies.The carve-out is an explicit commitment by WTO governments to allow publicly funded services in core areas of their responsibility. Governmental services are defined in the agreement as those that are not supplied commercially and do not compete with other suppliers. These services are not subject to any GATS disciplines, they are not covered by the negotiations, and commitments on market access and national treatment (treating foreign and domestic companies equally) do not apply to them.GATS’ approach to making commitments means that members are not obliged to do so on the whole universe of services sectors. A government may not want to make a commitment on the level of foreign competition in a given sector, because it considers the sector to be a core governmental function or indeed for any other reason. In this case, the government’s onlyobligations are minimal, for example to be transparent in regulating the sector, and not to discriminate between foreign suppliers.Transparency GATS says governments must publish all relevant laws and regulations, and set up enquiry points within their bureaucracies. Foreign companies and governments can then use these inquiry points to obtain information about regulations in any service sector. And they have to notify the WTO of any changes in regulations that apply to the services that come under specific commitments.Regulations:objective and reasonable Since domestic regulations are the most significant means of exercising influence or control over services trade, the agreement says governments should regulate services reasonably, objectively and impartially. When a government makes an administrative decision that affects a service, it should also provide an impartial means for reviewing the decision (for example a tribunal).GATS does not require any service to be deregulated. Commitments to liberalize do not affect governments’ right to set levels of quality, safety, or price, or to introduce regulations to pursue any other policy objective they see fit. A commitment to national treatment, for example, would only mean that the same regulations would apply to foreign suppliers as to nationals. Governments naturally retain their right to set qualification requirements for doctors or lawyers, and to set standards to ensure consumer health and safety.Recognition When two (or more) governments have agreements recognizing each other’s qualifications (for example, the licensing or certification of service suppliers), GATS says other members must also be given a chance to negotiate comparable pacts. The recognition of other countries’ qualifications must not be discriminatory, and it must not amount to protectionism in disguise. These recognition agreements have to be notified to the WTO.International payments and transfers Once a government has made a commitment to open a service sector to foreign competition, it must not normally restrict money being transferred out of the country as payment for services supplied (“current transactions”) in that sector. The only exception is when there are balance-of-payments difficulties, and even then the restrictions must be temporary and subject to other limits and conditions.Progressive liberalization The Uruguay Round was only the beginning. GATS requires more negotiations, which began in early 2000 and are now part of the Doha Development Agenda. The goal is to take the liberalization process further by increasing the level of commitments in schedules.The annexes: services are not all the sameInternational trade in goods is a relatively simple idea to grasp: a product is transported from one country to another. Trade in services is much more diverse. Telephone companies, banks, airlines and accountancy firms provide their services in quite different ways. The GATS annexes reflect some of the diversity.Movement of natural persons This annex deals with negotiations on individuals’ rights to stay temporarily in a country for the purpose of providing a service. It specifies that the agreement does not apply to people seeking permanent employment or to conditions for obtaining citizenship, permanent residence or permanent employment.Financial services Instability in the banking system affects the whole economy. The financial services annex gives governments very wide latitude to take prudential measures, such as those for the protection of investors, depositors and insurance policy holders, and to ensure the integrity and stability of the financial system. The annex also excludes from the agreement services provided when a government is exercising its authority over the financial system, for example central banks’ services.Telecommunications The telecommunications sector has a dual role: it is a distinct sector of economic activity; and it is an underlying means of supplying other economic activities (for example electronic money transfers). The annex says governments must ensure that foreign service suppliers are given access to the public telecommunications networks without discrimination.Air transport services Under this annex, traffic rights and directly related activities are excluded from GATS’s coverage. They are handled by other bilateral agreements. However, the annex establishes that the GATS will apply to aircraft repair and maintenance services, marketing of air transport services and computer-reservation services. Members are currently reviewing the annex.。

Whena company wanted to connect computers it owned at two different locations, the companyplaced a telephone call to establish the connection, and then connected one computer to each end of that single connection.The U.S. Defense Department was concerned about the inherent risk of this single-channel method for connecting computers, and its researchers developed a different method of sending information through multiple channels. In this method, files and messages are broken into packets that are labeled electronically with codes for their origins, sequences, and destinations. In 1969, Defense Department researchers in the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) used this network model to connect four computers into a network called the ARPANET. The ARPANET was the earliest of the networks that eventually combined to become what we now call the Internet. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, many researchers in the academic community connected to the ARPANET and contributed to the technological developments that increased its speed and efficiency.IV.Translate the following passage from English into Chinese:因特网只是提供了将许许多多的计算机连接在一起的物理与逻辑基础结构。

汽车英语  Engine Unit Ten  Intake and Exhaust Systems

• A turbocharger is a device used to supercharge an engine. The turbocharger usually consists of a turbine and a compressor. High-velocity exhaust gases pass out of the exhaust ports and then through a turbine. Here the exhaust gases cause the turbine to rotate very rapidly. The turbine causes the compressor to turn very rapidly also. As the compressor turns, it draws in a large amount of fresh air. The intake air is pressurized and forced into the intake manifold and then into the cylinders. If a corresponding amount of fuel is added, a large increase in power will obtain.
nitrogen oxides(NOX).
• Exhaust Manifold
• The exhaust manifold,usually constructed of east iron,is a pipe that conducts the exhaust gases from the combustion chambers to the exhaust pipe.it has smooth curves in it for improving the flow of exhaust.The exhaust manifold is holted to tile cylinder head.

The section Discussion was well done and discussed the relevance of each test to published research as well as relevant clinical applications.It would be helpful if the title would reflect that this report is on a root end filling material.General comment. The entire manuscript needs to be edited for proper use of the English language and syntax.IntroductionThe sentence: “However, its defects prohibit clinical applications…..”. The word “defect” is an odd choice. “shortcomings” would be more appropriate.The sentence: “To overcome these disadvantages, a new material,hydroxyapatite/tetracalciumphosphate/polyacrylic acid cement (HA/TTCP/PAA), with optimum properties, has been developed.”Authors you are reporting on your findings of your novel cement but already conclude in this Introduction that it has “optimum properties”. At best you can state that it was your intent to develop a material with optimum or improved properties.Authors: Check instructions for authors for the required journal format for referring to the published literature.Materials and MethodsThe sentence: “The HA/TTCP/PAA paste was mixed….and the mixed wit h distilled water…” Authors, after you have crushed the powders it makes no sense to describe the HA/TTCP/PAA as a paste.“The paste of HA/TTCP/PAA, GIC and GPC were placed into a plastic plate… 37°C in 100%” Authors, use better description than “plastic plate”.“The final setting time was the average result of five sample specimens.” The words sample and specimens are synonymous.“Compressive strength was calculated from the mean value of five samples of each group”. You probably mean to say that the m ean value for each group was derived from the 5 samples.“The materials were set in the molds for 24 h at 37°C in 100%humidity”. The meaning the materials were set is not clear. Please explain this method better.“The HA/TTCP/PAA, GIC and GPC pastes we re manually shaped separately into an 8 mm diameter ball within 1 min….” Authors, it would be better to describe this as follows: At standard liquid/powder ratios each material was mixed and immediately, but within 1 min, manipulated into a ball.Although the test that was described lacks any scientific foundation, the figures were convincing.“The unreactive supernatants in the well were carefully sucked off, and 600 μL ….” Authors, use a better word than “sucked off” to remove the supernatants.Washout resistance test“The washout resistance result for the HA/TTCP/PAA showed no noticeable disintegration (figure 4); however, GIC paste balls had a large amount of debris…”Replace the word “debris”. The actual release of particles or dissolution of the GIC cannot be called debris.“Different from HA/TTCP/PAA, GIC was water sensitive during setting phase, which was supported in the present study by a large sum of debris around its paste ball in PBS, and suggested in Earl and Ibbetson’s study by its easy damage in the early moist setting (Bodrumlu 2008)”. This reviewer does not understand the connection between Earl and Ibbetson’s study and the reference made to Bodrumlu. Please clarify.The figures have no numbers. See pages 19-23 of the pdf.Referee: 2Comments to AuthorMarch 24, 2012Title: Hydroxyapatite/Tetracalcium Phosphate/Polyacrylic Acid Cement:Chemical-Physical Properties and CytotoxicityMs. #: IEJ-12-00-00123GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:Writing: Word use and grammar are at journal standards and need to be improved throughout.Organization: GoodOther: Avoid the use of +/- to express variation. The preferred method is mean (stdev). For example: 11.0 (0.8) min. The discussion is too long and over-zealous relative to the experimental data (see specifics below).CONTENTTitle1. OKAbstract1. The conclusion statement should be modified to say that it has low cytotoxicity. Biocompatibility was not adequately evaluated to make the current statement. Also should say it IS promising, not MAYBE promising. The latter makes no sense.Introduction1. OK, except for the writing inadequacies.Methods1. p. 5, ll. 22: It is unclear how the washout test was quantified. Please describe more thoroughly.2. p. 5, ll. 11: How do the authors know that the Et2O treatment didn't affect the biological properites of the the materials? It seems it would have been better3. p. 5, MTT assay. The 5 mg/mL concentration exposed to L929 for 4 h can be cytotoxic by itself. How did the authors control for this potential problem?Results1. Fig, p. 20 (pH). Statistical analyses need to be shown on this graph.2. Fig. p. 22 (cytotoxicity). These figures are too small for me to really evaluate thoroughly.3. Table 1: heading suggests that setting times are compare, but I believe this is an error. It seems that only CS is compared. Please check.Discussion/Conclusions1. First paragraph, p. 8 (setting). This paragraph seems speculative and askance of the experimental data for the most part. Please rewrite to relate more specifically to the XRD and IR data.2. Paragraph , p. 9 (washout). This paragraph also is speculative and the analysis exceeds the experimental data. The best that can be said here is that the HA/TTCP/PAA cement shows promised in terms of its relative wash-out resistance.3. Paragraph, p. 9/10 (pH). This text cannot be evaluated without statistical analysis of the data.4. Biocompatibility (p. 10). The authors have done 2 tests, but they are really measuring the same thing they way they were performed (both assess the cell mass). Thus the discussion claims are overstated in terms of the utility of these two tests. A moreconvincing story would be to evaluate the materials much longer-term (say after 4 weeksor longer). This should be mentioned in the discussion-- many individual have publishedresults with longer terms.5. Conclusions: are overstated. The authors should restrict their claims to say that the newmaterial shows promise relative to GIC and GPC. Little is possible to conclude beyondthat!References1. OKIllustrations (and Tables)Table 1: eliminate +/- signs and replace as suggested above. Transpose table to put thetimes along the top and the materials down the side. More effective.Fig 1: Helpful to vertically spread out the figure so that there is more space between tracesat different times.Fig 2: wavenumber labels are too crowded to bottom curve. Add space.Fig. 3: Add stats to graph. I suggest that this would be better plotted as a line graph (pH vs.time), and avoid all the different column fills and crowded legend, which are verydistracting.Fig. 4. Unclear what the top vs. bottom rows are without looking at caption. Please label.Fig. 5 ab. Separate these into separate figures. Make them bigger, please. Complete thegraph frame. Eliminate box around the legend. Space between numbers and units on thex-axes. (e.g. 48 h, not 48h). Use of lowercase letter labels would be more effective than allthe lines to show statistical differences.Date Sent:03-Apr-20121.3.2Understanding letter 2Main idea:____________________________________________________________ The author should①___________________________________________________________________②___________________________________________________________________③___________________________________________________________________④___________________________________________________________________nguage Focus:Politeness2.1 Highlight the polite expressions in the two letters.2.2 Make a response to the reviewer's comments in a polite way.

• Proteus
Trojan War Saga: The Odyssey
• The Wandering on the Sea
Athena pleads to the gods and Zeus on Mount Olympus on behalf of the imprisoned Odysseus and Telemachus, and Zeus sends Hermes to order Calypso to release her prisoner. Hermes races to Calypso’s island and conveys Zeus’ command. The goddess is furious, pointing out that male gods are allowed to take mortal lovers while female ones are not. But she cannot defy Zeus, so reluctantly she agrees and informs the weeping Odysseus of the new plans. Calypso tries to convince Odysseus that she is better than his mortal wife. Odysseus flatters her but insists that he long for home.
Trojan War Saga: The Odyssey
• Telemachus
The old king then sends Telemachus with his son Peisistratus to Sparta where Menelaus and Helen are holding wedding feast for both their son and daughter. Helen and Menelaus recognize Telemachus as the son of Odysseus, since the young man looks so much like his father. Helen tells s story about Odysseus’ disguising himself as a beggar during the war. Menelaus recounts the famous anecdote of how Odysseus hid himself and his men inside a wooden horse to invade Troy.
Homer
Trojan War Saga: The Odyssey
• Telemachus
The story begins with the narrator calling upon the Muse to help him tell the story of Odysseus. It is on the tenth year since Troy has fallen to the Greeks. On Mount Olympus, Zeus summons a council with all the major gods present except Poseidon, who is away in Ethiopia. This is good for Odysseus, since Poseidon is the only one that would not like to see him return home safely. Zeus speaks of man who devises his own misery but blames the gods. He refers to Aegisthus, who killed Agamemnon and stole his wife, though the gods warned him that Agamemnon’s son, Orestes, would someday revenge—which he justly did. Athena speaks on behalf of Odysseus, who has for seven years stayed in the land of the nymph Calpso longing for home. She pleads with Zeus to free Odysseus. He agrees, and sends Hermes to Calypso to ask her to free Odysseus.
Trojan War Saga: The Odyssey
• Telemachus
Athena, disguised as Mentor, king of Taphian and an old friend of ห้องสมุดไป่ตู้dysseus, travels to Ithaca (see the map on Page 143), now overrun with suitors intent on marrying Odysseus’ wife, Penelope. The cunning Penelope has been deceiving the suitors for years. She promised to marry after she wove a shroud for her dead husband’s father, Laertes, but has been unwoven each day’s work at night for three years. Now her trick is discovered and she has to finish the shroud. Odysseus’ son, Telemachus, unhappy among the suitors, welcomes Athena, who advises the young prince to seek news from Nestor in Pylus. Together with Mentor (Athena), Telemachus secretly gets his crew and sails to Pylus.

Telemachus and Mentor
Trojan War Saga: The Odyssey
• Telemachus
At Pylus, Telemachus and Athena are received graciously. Nestor tells Telemachus after Ilion (Troy) fell Athena provoked a fight between the brothers Menelaus and Agamemnon and divided the Achaeans into two camps. Those under command of the former left, while the latter stayed. Odysseus left, but he (Nestor) and his crew soon returned to Agamemnon. Nestor returned home safely, while others were either driven off course or were killed by the storm sent by Poseidon. Nestor tells Telemachus he has not seen nor heard news of Odysseus since they left Troy and suggests that he go to Menelaus of Sparta for further information.
Menelaus and Helen
Trojan War Saga: The Odyssey
• Telemachus
Telemachus asks if the Spartan king has any news of his father. Menelaus says that he was blown off course down to Egypt and stayed there for seven years as unfavorable winds bound him. He then had to capture the sea-god Proteus, who could foresee the future but could change his shapes into different animals. Meneclaus and his men managed to capture Proteus and held him until the god surrendered to him. Proteus told Menelaus he was kept in Egypt as punishment for not honoring the gods with sacrifices. He also told him of the happenings and whereabouts of his fellow comrades from the Trojan War, those who made it home, and Agamemnon being killed by Aegisthus. Then Proteus informed him that Odysseus was still alive and on the island of the nymph Calypso. Telemachus thanks Meneclaus for his helpful information and leaves. Back in Ithaca, some suitors plot to ambush Telemachus’ ship on his return trip. But Athena aids Telemachus in reaching Ithaca undetected.
