They are being developed as tourist,leisure,and residential resorts,and will increase the coastline of the country by 120 kilometres.After four years of planning and careful consideration of the environmental issues,construction started in 2001. Dutch engineers with experience of reclaiming land from the sea were employed in the building of the first two islands. The site for all three islands is an area of the sea where the water is not very deep. Sand is taken from the seabed and sprayed into the construction site. Although the shallow water facilitates this process,the islands are still very exposed to the currents and tidal movements of the sea. Rocks are used to hold the sand in place resulting in a large crescent(月状的)structure. This acts as a breakwater and protects the islands from the sea.The first two islands are in the shape of date palm trees and consist of a trunk and 17 fronds,or leaves,coming off the trunk. The first island,named Palm Jumeirah,has three five-star hotels in the trunk,and luxury homes in the leaves. It is astonishing that when these homes went on sale in 2004,they were all sold within three days.The second palm Jebel Ali,was started in 2002 and is designed to be an entertainment centre. Six marinas(小游艇船坞)are planned,with a water theme park,and home built on stilts(桩柱)in the water.The Palm Deira is planned to be the largest of the three islands,with a length of 14 km and a width of 8.5 km,an area larger than the city of Paris. It will consist of residential properties,marinas,shopping malls,sports facilities,and clubs. These will be open to both residents and tourists.More artificial islands,the World Islands,are now being constructed near the Palm Jumeirah. They consist of 300 private islands grouped into the shape of the continents of the world and will be used for estates,private homes,community islands,and resorts.Unquestionably,these artificial islands are one of the wonders of the modern world.

Its data have bee n helpi ng astr ono mers predict how com mon pla nets are in our galaxy.

Such a pla net would have a diameter at least as large as Earth s, bi more than twice that big. The planet also would have to orbit in a star s hal zone. That ' s where the surface temperature would allow any water to exist as aliquid.The new estimate of how many pla nets might fit these con diti ons comes fromstudying more than 42,000 stars and identifying suitable worlds orbiting them. Thescie ntists used those nu mbers to extrapolate ( 推算)to the rest of the stars that thetelescope could not see.The estimate is rough, the authors admit. If applied to the solar system, it would defi ne ashabitable a zone start ing as close to the Sun as Venus and running to as far away as Mars. Neither planet is Earthlike (although either might have bee n in the distant past). Using tighter limits, theresearchers estimate that between 4and 8 out of every 100 Sun like stars could host an Earth-sized world. These are ones that would take200 to 400 days to complete a yearly orbit.Four out of every 100 sun like stars does n ' t sound like a big nu mber.

There ' snore carb on in the air, andArctic ice is melting faster than at any time in recorded history. Scientist who study the environment to better gauge (评估)Earth ' future climate now argue t hatthese cha nges may not reverse for a very long time. 2People burn fossil fuels like coal and oil for energy. That burning releasescarb on dioxide, a colorless gas. In the air, this gas traps heat at Earth' scon diti ons to Earths.And the more carb on dioxide released, the more the pla net warms.

For example: Snow and ice reflect sun light backinto space. But as these melt, sun light can now reach — and warm — the exposedground. This extra heat raises the air temperature eve n more, caus ing even more snow to melt. This type of rapid exaggeration of impacts is called a “ fast feedback ”.4 Zeebe says it ' smportant to look at fast feedbacks. However, he adds, they ' relimited. From a climate changeperspective, “ This century is the mostimportant time for the next few generations, ” he told Science News. “ Buttheworld is not endin g in 2100 .” For this new study, Zeebe now focuses on“ slowfeedbacks. While fast feedback events unfold over decades or centuries, slowfeedbacks can take thousa nds of years. Melt ing of con ti nen tal ice sheets and the migrationof plant life — as they relocate to more comfortable areas — are twoexamples of slow feedbacks.con sumpti on of fossil fuels does n thousa nds ofmore severe tha n scie ntistshad beenexpect ing.Climatologist Richard Zeebe of the University of Hawaiiat Manoa offers this3 Most climate- change studies look at what ' s goingto happenin the nexts environment could nu dge5 Zeebe gathered in formati on from previously publishes studies in vestigat ing how such processes played out over thousands of years during past dramaticchanges in climate.

It can be credited with many firsts in space.During Mir's lifetime, Russia spent about US$4.2 billion to build and maintain the stati on.The Soviet Union launched Mir, which was designed to last from three to five years, on February 20, 1986, and housed 104 astr on auts over 12 years and seve n mon ths, most of whom were not Russia n. In fact, it became the first intern ati onal space station by playing host to 62 people from 11 countries. From 1995 through 1998, seven astronauts from the United States took turns living on Mir for up to six mon ths each. They were among the 37 America ns who visited the stati on duri ng nine stopovers by space shuttles.The more than 400 million the United States provided Russian for the visits not only kept Mir operat ing, but also gave the America ns and their part ners in theintern ati onal stati on project valuable experie nee in Ion g-term flight andmult in ati onal operati ons.A debate continues over Mir ' s contributions to scienee. During its exis tence,Mir was the laboratory for 23,000 experiments and carried scientific equipment,estimated to be worth $80 million, from many nations. Experiments on Mir arecredited with a range of findings, from the first solid measurement of the ration of heavy helium atoms in space to how to grow wheat in space. But for those favouring human space exploration, Mir showed that people could live and work in space long eno ugh for a trip to Mars. The Ion gest sin gle stay in space is the 437. 7 days that Russian astronaut Valery Polyakov spent on Mir from 1994 to 1995. And Sergie Avdeyev accumulated 747.6 days in space in three trips to the space statio n.The Ion gest America n stay was that of Shannon Lucid, who spe nt 188 days aboard Mir in 1996.Despite the many firsts Mir accomplished, 1997 was a bad year out of 15 for Mir.In 1997, an oxygen generator caught fire. Later, the main computer system broke down, causing the station to drift several times and there were power failures.Most of these problems were repaired, with American help and suppliers, but Mir's reputation as a space station was ruined.Mir ' s setbacks are nothing, though, when we compare them with itsaccomplishme nts. Mire was a treme ndous success, which will be remembered as a milestone in space exploration and the space station that showed Iong-termhuman habitation in space was possible. But it's time to move on to the nextgeneration. The International Space Station being built will be better, but it owes a great debt to Mir.31. What can we lear n from the passage that the Mir Space Stati onA. was desig ned to last 5 years.B. was built by Russia ns.C. played nost to 7 astro nauts from differe nt coun tries.D. was visited only by America ns.32. One of the contributions Mir makes to science is that itA. helps astr on auts get close to Mars.B. en ables scie ntists to develop new scie ntific equipme nt.C. sets a record of the Ion gest sin gle huma n stay in space.D. shows that mult in ati onal operati ons in space are less expe nsive.33. What happe ned to Mir in 1997?A. It ran out of its fund.B. It was completely damage by fire.C. Its main computer system broke dow n.D. Its reputati on was ruined due to power failures.34. It can be in ferred from the last paragraph thatA. space exploration will not experience setbacks.B. it is difficult for other space stati ons to exceed Mir ' s success.C. Mir is the best Ion g-term huma n habitati on in space in history.D. mult in ati onal space operati ons are gett ing more accomplishme nts.35. What is the author ' s attitude toward Mir?A. Favorable.B. I ndiffere nt.C. Iro nic.D. Negative.第二篇:Approaches to Un dersta nding In tellige ncesIt pays to be smart, but we are not all smart in the same way. You may be atale nted musicia n, but you might not be a good reader. Each of us is differe nt.Psychologists disagree about what is intelligenee and what are talents orpersonal abilities. Psychologists have two different views on intelligenee. Somebelieve there is on e gen eral in tellige nee. Others believe there are many differe nt in tellige nces.Some psychologists say there is one type of in tellige nee that can be measuredwith IQ tests. These psychologists support their view with research that con cludes that people who do well on one kind of test for men tal ability do well on other tests. They do well on tests using words, nu mbers or pictures. They do well on in dividual or group tests, and written or oral tests. Those who do poorly on one test, do the same on all tests.Studies of the brain show that there is a biological basis for gen eral in tellige nee.The brains of in tellige nt people use less en ergy duri ng problem solvi ng. The brain waves of people with high in tellige nee show a quicker reacti on. Some researcherscon elude that differe nces in in tellige nee result from differe nces in the speed andeffective ness of in formati on process ing by the brain.Howard Gardner, a psychologist at the Harvard School of Educati on, has fourchildren. He believes that all children are different and shouldn ' t be tested by intelligenee test. Although Gardner believes general intelligenee exists, he thinksthat the human mind has different intelligences. These intelligences allow us tosolve the kinds of problems we are prese nted with in life. Each of us has differe ntabilities with in these in tellige nces. Gardner believes that the purpose of schoolshould be to en courage developme nt of all of our in tellige nces.Gardner says that his theory is based on biology. For example, whe n one partof the brain is injured, other parts of the brain still work. People who cannot talkbecause of brain damage can still sing. So, there is not just one in tellige nee to lose.Gardner has identified 8 different kinds of intelligenee: linguistic, mathematical,spatial, musical, in terpers on al, in trapers on al, body-k in esthetic (身体动觉的),andn aturalistic.36. What is the main idea of this passage?A. How to un dersta nd in tellige nee.B. The importa nee of in tellige nee.C. The developme nt of in tellige nee tests.D. How to become in tellige nt.37. Which of the followi ng stateme nts is true concerning gen eral in tellige nee?A. Most intelligent people do well on some intelligence tests.B. People doing well on one type of in tellige nce test do well on other tests.C. In tellige nt people do not do well on group tests.D. Intelligent people do better on written tests than on oral tests.38. Gardner believes thatA. childre n have differe nt in tellige ncesB. all childre n are alike.C. childre n should take one in tellige nce test.D. there is no gen eral in tellige nce.39. Accord ing to Gardner, schools shouldA. promote developme nt of all in tellige nces.B. test stude nts ' IQs.C. train stude nts who do poorly on tests.D. focus on finding the most in tellige nt stude nts.40. Gardner thinks that his theory has aA. musical foun datio n.B. in trapers onal foun dati on.C. li nguistic foun dati on.D. biological foun dati on.第三篇:Eye-tracker Lots You Drag and Drop Files with a GlanceBored of using a mouse? Soon you'll be able to cha nge stuff on your computerscreen - and then move it directly onto your smart phone or tablet(平板电脑)-withno thi ng more tha n a gla nee.A system called Eye Drop uses a head-m oun ted eye tracker that simulta neouslyrecords your field of view so it knows where you are looking on the screen. Gazingat an object - a photo, say - and the n press ing a key, selects that object. It can the nbe moved from the scree n to a tablet or smart phone just by gla ncing at the sec ond device, as long as the two are conn ected wirelessly."The beauty of using gaze to support this is that our eyes n aturally focus oncontent that we want to acquire, "says Jays on Turner, who developed the systemwith colleagues at Lan caster Uni versity, UK.Turner believes Eye Drop would be useful to tran sfer an in teractive map or con tact in formatio n from a public display to your smart phone or for shari ng photos.A butt on n eeds to be used to select the object you are look ing at otherwiseyou end up with the "Midastouch"(点石成金)effect, whereby everything you look atgets selected by your gaze, says Turner. "Imagine if your mouse clickedoneveryth ing it poin ted at," he says.Christian Holz, a researcher in huma n-computer in teractionat Yahoo Labs inSunny vale, Califor nia, says the system is a nice take on gett ing rou ndthisfun dame ntal problem of using gaze-track ing to in teract. "Eye Drop solves this in aslick (灵巧的)way by comb ining it with in put on the touch devices we carry with us most of the time any way and using touch in put as a clutch ing mecha ni sm," he says."This now allows users to seamlessly(无缝地)in teract across devices far and close in a very n atural mann er."While curre nt eye-trackers are rather bulky, main stream con sumer devices arenot too far away. Swedish firm Tobii is develop ing gaze-track ing tech no logy thatcan be in stalled in laptops and tablets and is expected to be available to buy nextyear.

2014年职称英语真题及答案综合类B级(阅读理解)
第一篇The Making of a Success StoryIKEA is the world's largest furniture retailer,and the man behind it is Ingvar Kamprad,one of the world's most successful entrepreneurs.Born in Sweden in1926,Kamprad was a natural businessman.As a child,he enjoyed selling things and made small profits from selling matches,seeds,and pencils in his community.When Kamprad was17,his father gave him some money as a reward for his good grades.Naturally he used it to start up a business一IKEA.IKEA's name comes from Kamprad's initials(I.K.)and the place where he grew up('E'and'A').Today IKEA is known for its modern,minimalist furniture1,but it was not a furniture company in the beginning.Rather,IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods.Kamprad's wares included anything that he could sell for profits at discounted prices2,including watches, pens and stockings.IKEA first began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in1947.The fUrniture was all designed and made by manufacturers near Kamprad's home.Initial sales were veryencouraging,so Kamprad expanded the product line.Furniture was such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely a furniture company in1951.In1953IKEA opened its first showroom in Almhult,Sweden. IKEA is known today for its spacious stores with furniture iti attractive settings,but in the early1950s,people ordered from catalogues.Thus response to the first showroom was overwhelmiig:people loved being able to see and try the furniture before buying it.This led to increased sales and the company continued to thrive.By1955,IKEA was designing all its own furniture.In1956Kamprad saw a man disassembling a table to make it easier to transport.Kamprad was inspired.The man had given him a great idea:flat packaging3.Flat packaging would mean lower shipping costs for IKEA and lower prices for customers. IKEA tried it and sales soared.The problem was that people had to assemble furniture themselves,but over time,even this grew into an advantage for IKEA.Nowadays,IKEA is often seen as having connotations of self-sufficiency.This image has done wonders for the company,leading to better sales and continuedexpansion.Today there are over200stores in32countries.Amazingly, Ingvar Kamprad has managed to keep IKEA a privately-held company.In2004he was named the world's richest man.He currently lives in Switzerland and is retied from the day-to-day operations of IKEA.IKEA itself,though,just keeps on growing.31.Kamprad established IKEA withA.his personal savingsB.his father’s reward for his school performancerge profits from selling thingsD.his school’s support32.The author states in Paragraph5that flat packagingA.needs large space to assembly fumitureB.is a business concept inspired by KampradC.helps reduce transportation costsD.makes the company self-sufficient33.According to the passage.which of the following is NOT true?A.IKEA experienced rapid expansion since the late1950sB.IKEA designd its own products since1955C.IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods originallyD.Kamprad said his company after retirement34.what is the auther’s attitude towards IKEA’s future according toA.indifferentB.DoubtfulC.OptimisticD.Pessimistic35.The passage is developed primarily in terms ofA.analysis of a processB.examples that illustrate a problemanson and contrastD.sequence events答案:BCDCD第二篇Approaches to Understanding IntelligencesIt bays to be smart,but we are not all smart in the same way.You may be a talented musician,but you might not be a goodreader.Each of us is different.Psychologists disagree about what is intelligence and what are talents or personal abilities.Psychologists have two different views on intelligence.Some believe there is one general intelligence.Others believe there are many different intelligences.Some psychologists say there is one type of intelligence that can be measured with IQ tests.These psychologists support their view with research that concludes that people who do well on one kind of test for mental ability do well on other tests.They do well on tests using words,numbers or pictures. They do well on individual or group tests,and written or oral tests.Those who do poorly on one test,do the same on all tests.Studies of the brain show that there is a biological basis for general intelligence.The brain of intelligence people use less energy during problem solving.The brain waves of people with higher intelligence show a quicker reaction.Some researchers conclude that differences in intelligence result from differences in the speed and effectiveness of informationprocessing by the brain.Howard Gardner,a psychologist at the Harvard School of Education,has four children.He believes that all children are different and shouldn’t be tested by one intelligence test.Although Gardner believes general intelligence exists, he doesn’t think it tells much about the talents of a person outside of formal schooling.He think that the human mind has different intelligences.These intelligences allow us to solve the kinds of problems we are presented with in life.Each of us has different abilities within these intelligences.Gardner believes that the purpose of school should be to encourage development of all of our intelligences.Gardner says that his theory is based on biology.For example,when one part of the Brain is injured,other parts of the brain still work.People who cannot talk because of Brain damage can still sing.So,there is not just one intelligence to lose.Gardner has Identified8different kinds of intelligence;linguistic,mathematical,spatial,musical, Interpersonal,intrapersonal,body-kinesthetic(身体动觉的),and naturalistic.36.What is the main idea of this passage?A.The importance of intelligenceB.The development of intelligence testsC.How to understand intelligenceD.How to become intelligent37.Which of the following statements is true concerning general intelligence?A.Most intelligent people do well on some intelligence testsB.Intelligent people do not do well on group testsC.Intelligent people do better on written tests than on oral testsD.People doing well on one type of intelligence test do well on other tests38.Gardner believe thatA.all children are alikeB.children have different intelligencesC.children should take one intelligence testD.there is no general intelligence39.According to Gardner schools shouldA.promote development of all intelligencesB.test student's who do poorly on testsC.train students who do poorly on testsD.focus on finding the most intelligent students40.Gardner thinks that his theory has aA.musical foundationB.intrapersonal foundationC.linguistic foundationD.biological foundation答案:CDBAD第三篇The Workers'Role in ManagementTraditionally,it has been the workers'role to work and management's role to manage.Managers have planned and directed the firm's operations with little thought to consulting the labor force.Managers have rarely felt compelled to obtain the workers'opinions or to explain their decisions to their employees.At most,companies have provided“suggestion boxes”in which workers could place ideas for improving procedures.In recent years,however,many managementspecialists have been arguing that workers are more than sellers of labor-they have a vital stake in the company and may be able to make significant contributions to its management. Furthermore,major company decisions profoundly affect workers and their dependents.This is particularly true of plant closings,which may put thousands on the unemployment lines.Should workers,then play a stronger role in management?Workers should have a role in management.At the very least the labor force should be informed of major policy decisions.(A common complaint among rank-and-file workers is the lack of information about company policies and actions.)Between 1980and1985about five million workers were the victims of plant closings and permanent layoffs,often with no warning. At least90days——notice ought to be given in such instances so that workers have time to adjust.Management should consult workers before closing a plant because the workers might be able to suggest ways of improving productivity and reducing costs and might be willing to make concessions that will help keep the plant operating.It should become a general practice to include workers in some managerial decision making.There ought to be representatives of the workers on the firm's board of directors or other major policymaking groups.If rank-and-file workers are given a voice in the planning and management of the work flow,they will help to make improvements,their morale will rise,and their productivity will increase.As a further incentive they must be given a share in the company's profits. This can be done through employee stockownership plans,bonuses,or rewards for efficiency and productivity.Finally,when a plant can no longer operate at a profit,the workers should be given the opportunity to purchase the plant and run it themselves.41.It can be inferred from Paragraph1that managersA.were not qualifiedB.seldom obtain workers opinionC.dislike suggestion workers opinionsD.never consulted the tapor torce42.In recent years,many management specialists have been arguing theyA.should have a say in management of the companyB.are no longer sellers of the productsC.are less affected by company decisions than beforeD.are able to make final decisions for the company43.The word rank-file Paragraph2is closest in meaning toA.seniorB.ordinaryC.intelligentD.capable44.According to the passage,what happened between1980 and1985A.About five million workers were laid off without advance noticeB.Managers consulted workers before closing a plantC.Workers did not make necessary concessionD.Many companies were closed because of strikes45.If not give a voice in managerial decision making,workersA.may lack the incentive to increase their productivityB.cannot get a share in the company’s profitsC.can still get bonuses for efficiency and productivityD.will not have the opportunity to purchase the plant 答案:BABAA。

第一篇Captain Cook Arrow Legend 库克船长箭传说It was a great legend while it lasted,but DNA testing has (1)finally ended a two-century-old story of the Hawaiian arrow carved from the bone of British explorer Captain James Cook(2)who died in the Sandwich Islands in 1779.“There is (3)no Cook in the Australian Museum,’’museum collection manager Jude Philip said not long ago in announcing the DNA evidence that the arrow was not made of Cook’S bone.But that will not stop the museum from continuing to display the arrow in its(4)exhibition ,“Uncovered:Treasures of the Australian Museum,” which(5)does include a feather cape presented to Cook by Hawaiian King Kalani’opu’u in 1778.Cook was one of Britain’s great explorers and is credited with(6)discovering the“Grea t South Land,"(7)now Australia, in 1 770.He was clubbed to death in the Sandwich Islands,now HawaiiThe 1egend of Cook’s arrow began in 1824 (8)when Hawaiian King Kamehameha on his deathbed gave the arrow to William Adams,a London surgeon and relative of Cook’s wife,saying it was made of Cook’s bone after the fatal(9)fight with islanders.In the 1890s the arrow was given to the Australian Museum and the legend continued (10)until it came face=to-face with science.DNA testing by laboratories in Australia and New Zealand revealed the arrow was not made of Cook’s bone but was more (11)likely made of animal bone。

六、Car Thieves could Be Stopped Remotely 远程制止偷车贼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 miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine1off, he will not be able to start it again. For now, such devices 2 are only available for fleets of trucks and specialist vehicles used on construction sites. But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down to ordinary cars, and 3should be available to ordinary cars in the UK 4in two months.The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the carincorporates5a miniature cellphone, a microprocessor and memory, and a GPS satellite positioning receiver. 6If the car is stolen, a coded cellphone signal will tell the unit to block the vehicle’s engine management system and prevent the engine7being restarted.There are even plans for immobilizers 8that shut down vehicles on the move, though there are fears over the safety implications of such a system. In the UK. an array of technical fixes is already making 9life 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 11teach a novice how to steal a car, using a bare 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 13have helped achieve a 31 per cent drop in vehicle-related crime 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 per cent of vehicles stolen in the UK were taken using the owner’s keys double the p revious year’s figure.Remote-controlled immobilization system would 14put a major new obstacle in the criminal’s way by making such thefts pointless. A group that includes Thatcham, the police, insurance companies and security technology firms have developed standards for a system that could goon the market sooner than the15customer expects.七、智能汽车 An Intelligent CarDriving needs sharp eyes, keen ears, quick brain, and coordination between hands and the brain. Many human drivers have all (1) these and can control a fast-moving car. But how does an intelligent car control itself? There is a virtual driver in the smart car. This virtual driver has “eyes,”“brains”,“hands” and “feet”,too. The mini-cameras (2) on each side of the car are his “eyes,” whic h observe the road and 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 the built-in computer, which is the virtual driver’s “brain. ” His “brain” calculat es the speeds of (5) other moving cars near it and analyzes their positions. Basing on this information, it chooses the right (6) path for the intelligent cars, and gives (7) instructions to the “hands”and “feets”to act accordingly. In this way, the virtua l 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 within 100 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. He can now only drive an intelligent car on expressways.第八篇Why India Needs Its Dying VulturesThe vultures in question may look ugly and threatening, but the sudden sharp __1 decline __ in three species of India’s vultures is producing alarm rather than celebration, and it presents the world with a new kind of environmental __2 problem __ The dramatic decline in vulture numbers is causing widespread disruption to people living in the same areas as the __3 birds__ . It is also causing serious public health problems __4across__ the Indian sub-continent.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. It is__6_because_they feed on dead cows. In India, cows are sacred animals and are __7_finally_ left in the open when they die in their thousands upon thousands every year.The disappearance of the vultures has __8 led to__ an explosion in the numbers of wild dogs feeding on the remains of these dead animals. There are fears that rabies may __9increase__as a result. And this terrifying disease may ultimately affect humans in the region, since wild dogs are its main carriers. Rabies could also spread to other animal species, causing an even greater problem in the __10future__.The need for action is __11urgent__, so an emergency project has been launched to __12_find_ a solution to this serious vulture problem. Scientists are trying to identify the disease causing the birds,deaths and, if possible, develop a cure.Large-scale vulture __13deaths__ 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 __14by__ over 90 per cent. All three species are now listed as “critically endangered”. As most vultures lay only single eggs and __15_take_ about five years to reach maturity, reversing their population decline will be a long and difficult exercise.第九篇:Wonder WebsSpider webs are more than homes, and they are ingenious traps. And the world’s best web spinner may be the Golden Orb Weaver spider. The female Orb Weaver spins a web of fibers thin enough to be invisible to insect prey, yet____tough____ enough to snare a flying bird without breaking.The secret of the web’s strength? A type of super-resilient____2_silk___ called dragline. When the female spider is ready to____3_weave___ the web’s spokes and frame, she uses her legs to draw the airy thread ou t through a hollow nozzle in her belly. Dragline is not sticky, so the spider can race back and forth along____4it____ to spin the web’s trademark spiral.Unlike some spiders that weave a new web every day, a Golden Orb Weaver____5reuses____ her handiwork until it falls apart, sometimes not for two years1. The silky thread is five times stronger than steel by weight and absorbs the force of an impact three times better than Kevlar, a high- strength human-made____6material____ used in bullet-proof vests. And thanks to its high tensile strength, or the ability to resist breaking under the pulling force called tension, a single strand can stretch up to 40 percent longer than its original____7length____ and snap back as well as new. No human-made fiber even comes____8_close___.It is no____9_hurry___ manufacturers are clamoring for spider silk.

A steady____10supply____ of spider silk would be worth billions of dollars —but how to produce it? Harvesting silk on spider farms does not____11_work___ because the territorial arthropods have a tendency to devour their neighbors.Now, scientists at the biotechnology company Nexia are spinning artificial silk modeled after Golden Orb dragline. The____12first____ step: extract silk-making genes from the spiders. Next, implant trie genes into goat egg cells. The nanny goats that grow from the eggs secrete dragline silk proteins in their____13milk____. “The young goats pass on the silk-making gene without____14_any___ help from us,” says Nexia president Jeffrey Turner. Nexia is still perfecting the spinning process,but they hope artificial spider silk will soon be snagging customers____15_as fast as ___ the real thing snags bugs.第十篇:Chicken Soup for the Soul: Comfort Food Fights LonelinessMashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, may be bad for your arteries, ____1_but ___ according to a study in Psychological Science, they’re good for your heart and____2_emtions___. “comfort food1” and how it makes people feel.“For me____3_personally___, food has always played a big role in my family”, says Jordan Troisi, a grad uate student2 at the University of Buffalo3,and lead author4 on the study.

Such injuries are so widespread that more than 70 percent of physicians surveyed by the American of Orthopedic (整形外科的) Surgeons listed backpacks as a potential clinical problem for children.How do you avoid such problems? Choose bags that have wide, padded straps (有垫的背带)and a belt. That will help transfer some of the weight from the back and shoulders to the hips. You should also tighten both straps firmly, so the packrests about 2 inches above your waist. Also, remember to pack your bag with the heaviest items closest to your back and to bend both knees when you pick it up.I low much should you stuff into your back? That depends on your size and strength, but a general rule is not to exceed 20 percent of your body weight. So if a child weights 100 pounds, the backpack and its load should not be more than 20 pounds. One hint: Make frequent trips to your locker (储物柜) to exchange books between classes.Backpacks with wheels let you pull the weight along the ground, but they have problems too. Many are larger than the average shoulder bag, so students are tempted to carry more than they would in a conventional pack.Roller bags often don’t fit into a locker. They can also lead to tripping and falls in crowded halls. Whatever you use. 10 or 15 minutes of stretching and back strengthening is a good idea.16.

In aromatherapy these powerful oils are mixed with other oils, such as almond(杏仁)oil, or they are diluted(稀释)with water. These solutions(溶液剂)can be rubbed on the skin, sprayed in the air, or applied as a compress(敷药)。

"Wanna buy a body?" That was the opening line of more than a few phone calls I got from self-employed photographers when I was a photo editor at U.S. News. Like many in the mainstream press, I wanted to separate the world of photographers into "them", who trade in pictures of bodies or run after famous people like Princess Diana, and "us", the serious news people. But after 16 years in that role, I came to wonder whether the two worlds were easily distinguishable.Working in the reputable world of journalism, I told photographers to cover other people's difficult life situations. I justified marching into moments of sadness, under the appearance of the reader's right to know. I worked with professionalstalking their way into situations or shooting from behind police lines. And I wasn't alone.In any American town, after a car crash or some other horrible incident when ordinary people are hurt or killed, you rarely see photographers pushing past rescue workers to take photos of the blood and injuries. But you are likely to see local newspaper and television photographers on the scene –and fast…How can we justify doing this? Journalists are taught to separate, doing the job from worrying about the consequences of publishing what they record. Repeatedly, they are reminded of a news-business saying: Leave your conscience in the office, A victim may lie bleeding, unconscious, or dead. Your job is to record the image (图象). You're a photographer, not an emergency medical worker. You put away your feelings and document the scene.But catastrophic events often bring out the worst in photographers and photo editors. In the first minutes and hours after a disaster occurs, photo agencies buy pictures. They rush to obtain the rights to be the only one to own these shocking images and death is usually the subject. Often, an agency buys a picture from a local newspaper or an amateur photographer and puts it up for bid by major magazines. The most sought-after special pictures command tens of thousands of dollars through bidding contests.I worked on all those stories and many like them. When they happen, you move quickly: buying, dealing, trying to beat the agencies to the pictures.Now, many people believe journalists are the hypocrites(伪君子)who need to be brought down, and it's our pictures that most anger others. Readers may not believe, as we do, that there is a distinction between clear-minded "us" and mean-spirited "them". In too many cases, by our choices of images as well as how we get them, we prove our readers right.16. The writer never got an offer for a photograph of a dead person.A. RightB. WrongC.
