26、He had external suggestion of any remaining fat, having been reduced to little more than skin and boneStirling believes the bear starved to death as a result of a lack of sea ice which the animals use as a platform for hunting seals That may also explain why the 16-year-old male bear was found about

37、for 13 yearsA Jason B Bolt C Isinbaeva D HeffernanCHong Kong is one of the most densely populated (人口密集的)cities in the world, but with night skies around 1,000 times brighter than globally accepted levels, it gains a bad reputation for its light pollution.A study by Hong Kong University found that b
38、rightness levels in the southern Chinese citys popular shopping district of Tsim Sha Tsui were 1,200 times greater than the international dark sky standard.The crowded city of 7 million residents(居民), full or residential high-rises, towering office blocks and neon(霓虹灯) advertisements, has no laws to
39、 control outdoor lightning.The result is that light pollution is thought to be much worse than in other large cities, including London, Sydney, Tokyo and Shanghai.“In Hong Kong , you cant go anywhere outdoor in the evening without your eyes being blinded by this really disturbing outdoor lightning,”
40、 the light pollution surveys head Jason Pum told AFP.“The fact that we have all this light in the sky means energy is wasted,” he said, adding that too much artificial lightning also affects nightly wildlife.Research has suggested that light pollution can cause a number of harmful health effects in
41、humans, including sleeplessness and headaches and can also interrupt body clocks and hormones(荷尔蒙).The university survey, the result of five million measurements taken from points across the city, was released just days before the start of the annual Earth Hour event, organized by the World Wildlife
42、 Fund.People around the world will be encouraged to turn off the lights for an hour on Saturday night to raise awareness of climate change. Last year, a number of Hong Kongs major buildings along Victoria Harbour went dark to mark Earth Hour.“Anyway, we should do our best to reduce the amount of lig
43、htning and adjust it for the benefit of the environment.”63.

Bad effects of light pollution B. Causes of light pollutionC. Worries ab
46、out light pollution D. Ways to reduce light pollutionD There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external(外部的) result or product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a promotion, the
47、 student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language- all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts. By contrast, the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since by definition it is a journey and not the specific si
48、gnposts (路标)or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but rather the attitudes and feelings people have, their caution or courage, as they go through new experiences and unexpected obstacles(阻碍). In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to exper
49、ience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept. In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to be faced with the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is essenti
50、al(基本的) to our ability to grow. These feelings of insecurity and self doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow. If we do not face and overcome these internal(内部的) fears and doubts, if we protect ourselves too much, then we cease（停止) to grow. We become trapped inside a sh
51、ell of our own making.67A person is generally believed to achieve personal growth when_. Ahe has given up his smoking habit Bhe has made great efforts in his work Che is interested in making anything new Dhe has tried to determine where he is on his journey68In the authors eyes, one who views person
52、al growth as a process would_. Ajudge his ability to grow from his own achievements Bsucceed in climbing up the social ladder Cface difficulties and take up challenges Daim high and reach his goal each time69When the author says “a new way of being” (para. 3), he is referring to _. Aa new way of tak
53、ing risks Ba new approach to experiencing the world Ca new system of adapting to change Da new method of finding ourselves70For personal growth, the author may not support _. . Acuriosity and more chances Bbeing quick in self adaptation Copen minded to new experiences Davoidance of internal fears an
54、d doubts E What do you want to be when you grow up?“When I grow up, I want to be.”Almost all of us have thought about, or been asked to think about, our future careers. Our answers may differ greatly. Even now your aspirations(志向) may have changed from when you were in primary school.However, it see
55、ms career options arent only based on personal taste. In a survey carried out by Teens, doctors, lawyers, and bankers were some of the most popular careers that people said they hoped to follow. This is in line with a similar survey carried out in the UK in May 2011 by job website monster. Co.uk, in
56、 which medicine was the top choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17. Medicine and law are two of the oldest and best knownprofessions. Their prestige (威望) may come from the fact that doctors and lawyers are some of the most esteemed members of society, and they make good money. Joining thes
57、e high-profile professions is often seen as a sign of upward social mobility. It is equally unsurprising that banking is now one of the most common career choices. Youngsters worldwide think of banking and see the money rolling in. Wealth is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators
58、 of a successful career. British young men list the UK tycoon Alan Sugar, Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg as their top role models “for their wealth”. Just as Chinese teenagers see being a banker as a good and fun pathway to “wealth”.However, not every child has the m
59、akings of doctor, lawyer, or banker. They are those who see fulfillment and happiness in other areas, and many teenagers dare to ink more individuality into their career options. As the Teens survey discovered, a variety of unconventional jobs-coffee shop owner, gourmet(美食家)，waiter at a fast food re

They can be equally interesting and rewarding jobs.With every choice comes responsibility and challenge, and all career paths require specific education and training, you have to learn to balance optimism and confidence with being realistic about your par

65、here is a kind of shopping that is called compulsive（强迫性的） shopping. Compulsive shopping is usually described as out of control and not reasonable.How can we know whether we are one of compulsive shoppers? Compulsive shoppers go out and buy things much more often than other people do.They often buy
66、things they do not need.Many times they will spend over their budget limits and get into deep financial trouble.While someone else will think many times if they can afford this or that thing，compulsive shoppers will have no awareness of the boundaries of a budget.They also often hide the things they
67、 have bought in order not to be blamed by other family members.They often refuse to admit their problem and cover up their debts with cheat.Compulsive shopping usually occurs when a person feels sad，lonely or angry. Shopping will not guarantee more love，or cure the hurts，regrets，stress，and the probl
68、ems of everyday life. Just the opposite, it eventually may make these feelings worse because of the increased financial problems the person has got from this addiction. Some families even lead to a divorce as compulsive shoppers spend a lot of time away from home.Treating a shopping addiction requir
69、es various approaches.The best thing to start with is to recognize the problem by compulsive shoppers themselves. First of all，dont use their credit cards，and instead，start paying by cash. It might be useful to make a shopping list in order to buy strictly what is needed.And if there is a chance to
70、get attracted, it might help to have just some small money and leave the wallet at home.It is also good to ask family and friends for support.And if after all these people still feel out of control，then it is recommended to seek professional advice or a selfhelp group to deal with this problem.
