34、back againAnd Ive been called many thingsIn the early days, some called me a crazy, wild manWhen I became CEO two decades ago, Wall Street asked, Jack who?When I tried to make GE more competitive by cutting back our workforce in the early 1980s, the media called me Neutron Jack When they learned we
35、were focused on values and culture at GE, people asked if Jack has gone soft. Ive been No1 or No2 Jack, Services Jack, Global Jack, and, in more recent yearsSix Sigma Jack and e-Business JackWhen we made an effort to acquire Honeywell in October 2000, and I agreed to stay on through the transition (
36、过渡期) , some thought of me as the Long-in-the-Tooth Jack hanging on by his fingertips to his CEO jobThose characterizations said less about me and a lot more about the stage our company went throughTruth is, down deep, Ive never really changed much from the boy my mother raised in Salem, Massachusett
37、sWhen I started on this journey in 1981 , standing before Wall Street analysts for the first time at New Yorks Pierre Hotel, I said I wanted GE to become the most competitive enterprise on earth My objective was to put a small-company spirit in a big-company body, to build an organization out of an

We provide the
43、 robot with seeing detectors (探测器) to keep it away from danger. It is powered entirely by the sun. Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times? No, the robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any. So we would probably program it to stop its activity at ni
44、ght and to wake up at dawn the next morning.According to the evolutionary theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason. The theory does not deny that sleep provides some important restorative functions. It merely says that evolution has pro
45、grammed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous. However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into: it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us. So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe plac
46、e, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent.The evolutionary theory explains the differences in sleep among creatures. Why do cats, for instance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little? Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as
47、horse do. But cats can afford no activity for a long period of time, because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep. Horses must spendalmost all waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value. Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too l
48、ong or too deeply, because their survival depends on their ability to run away from attackers.63.

49、t the sleeping pattern of robots.64. Evolution has programmed man to sleep at night mainly to help him _.A. keep up a regular pattern of lifeB. restore his bodily functions C. prevent trouble that comes looking for him D. avoid danger and ineffective labor65. Cats sleep much more than horses partly
50、because they _.A. are more active than horses when theyre awake.B. spend less time eating to get enough energyC. need more time for restorationD. are unlikely to be attackers.66. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A. The study of sleep is an important part of evolutionary theory.
51、B. The sleeping pattern of a living creature is determined by the food it eats.C. Sleeping patterns must be taken into consideration in the designing of robots.D. Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern of sleeping against waking.DAs an experienced photo-journalist in Nashville,
52、Tennessee, I was hired by USA Today newspaper to photograph a spinal bifida corrective surgical (脊柱畸形矫正手术)procedure. It was to be performed on a twenty-one week old fetus(胎儿)in uterus(子宫)at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. At that time, in 1999, twenty-one weeks in uterus was the earliest that
53、the surgical team would consider for operation. The worst possible outcome would be that the surgery would cause premature delivery(早产), and no child born earlier than twenty-three weeks had survived. The tension could be felt in the operating room as the operation began. A typical C-section incisio
54、n (切口) was made to access the uterus, which was then lifted out and laid at the junction of the mothers legs. The entire surgical procedure on the child was completed in one hour and thirteen minutes. When it was over, the surgical team breathed a sigh of relief, as did I. As a doctor asked me wheth
55、er I had taken some clear photos of the operation, out of the corner of my eye I saw the uterus shake, but no ones hands were near it. It was shaking from within. Suddenly, an entire arm reached out of the opening, then pulled back until just a little hand was showing. The doctor reached over and li
56、fted the hand, which reacted and squeezed the doctors finger. As if testing for strength, the doctor shook the tiny fist. He held firm. I took the picture! Wow! What a precious moment! Later the surgical opening to the uterus was closed and the uterus was then put back into the mother and the C-sect
57、ion opening was closed.It was ten days before I knew if the picture was even in focus. To ensure the true images before they see them, USA Today requires that film be submitted unprocessed. When the photo editor finally phoned me he said, “Its the most incredible picture Ive ever seen.”67. In 1999,
58、people believed that it was _.A. possible for a fetus 21 weeks born to survive B. likely for a fetus born 21 weeks to become deformed (畸形的)C. right time for a fetus born 21 weeks to receive an operationD. risky for a fetus 21 weeks in uterus to receive an operation68. From the second paragraph, we c
59、an see that the surgery was _.A. challenging but successfulB. demanding and unsuccessful C. simple and shortD. long-lasting and difficult 69. What can we learn from paragraph 3?A. The fetus was delivered earlier than expected.B. The doctor put his hands near the uterus so as to shake it.C. The fetus
60、 reached out one hand and reacted to the doctors finger.D. The doctor shook the fetuss fist in order to be photographed.70.
