34、ame as others have doneBPreschoolers pretending to shop for Barbie dolls social evening were more likely to choose cigarettes if their parents smoked, and wine or beer if their parents drank, a study found.Researchers observing the childrens play found that the ones who watched PG (parent guidance)
35、or R-rated movies (17岁以下青少年非家长陪同不得观看的电影) also were more likely to choose alcohol for Barbie.A 4-year-old girl show Barbie-sized tobacco in the pretend store and said: “I need this for my man. A man needs cigarettes.”A 6-year-old boy offered the doll cigarettes and said: “Honey, have some smokes. Do
36、you like smoke？I like smokes.”Parents who watched from behind a one-way mirror were surprised by their childrens choices, said study co-author Mediline Dalton of Dartmouth Medical School.“Its a very unhappy experience to be a parent and see your children imitate your behavior,” she said.“The study s

43、researchers said on Tuesday, Reuters reported.But among public concern about a possible link, the scientists who conducted the largest study so far on the subject said they could not rule out a higher risk over a longer period.“The results of our study suggest there is no substantial risk in the fir
44、st decade after starting use,” said Anthony Swerdlow of the Institute of Cancer Research.“Whether there are longer-term risks remains unknown, reflecting the fact that this is a relatively recent technology.”The study, published in the British Journal of Cancer, focused on the risk of acoustic neuro
45、ma (听觉神经瘤), benign tumors which grow in the nerve connecting the ear and inner ear to the brain, close to where handset are held.Research has also investigated the possible association of other kinds of brain tumor with mobile phones but scientists say acoustic neuroma would be a prime candidate to
46、be affected.Previous independent studies have found mobile phone radiation may have some effect on the human body, such as heating up the brain and causing headaches and feeling of sickness.But no study that could be independently repeated has proved mobile phones have permanent harmful effects and
47、the mobile phone industry argues there is no conclusive evidence that electromagnetic radiation causes harm.About 780 million mobile phones are expected to be sold this year, and nearly 2 billion people around the world use one.The institutes analysis pooled studies conducted in Britain, Denmark, Fi

52、and the United States could provide a significant amount of energy without contributing to global warming, scientists said on Tuesday.Field testing of the grass called Miscanthus in Illinois showed it could be very effective as an economically and environmentally sustainable (可持续的) energy crop.Profe
53、ssor Steve Long and his colleagues at the University of Illinois obtained a yield of about 69 tons per hectare (公顷) of the tall grass last year.“If about 8 percent of the land area (of the state) was given over to this grass, and assuming only half of those yields were obtained, we would obtain enou
54、gh dry matter to generate the total electricity used by the state of Illinois, which includes the city of Chicago,” he told a science conference.Professor Mike Jones, of Trinity College in Dublin, said planting the crop on 10 per cent of the arable (可耕的) land in Ireland, could meet up to 30 percent
55、of the countrys electricity needs.In the United States, scientists are looking at burning the crop in a 50-50 mix with coal to generate electricity. It would be suitable for use in some existing power plants, although others would require change.The scientists told the British Association for the Ad
56、vancement of Science conference that the attractive, perennial (多年生的) plant which grows about 14 feet high and similar grasses could provide a means to significantly protect the environment.“As the plant grows it is drawing carbon dioxide out of the air. When you burn it you put that carbon dioxide
57、back, so the net effect on atmospheric CO2 is zero,” Long explained.68. From the first paragraph we can learn that _.A. crops in Europe and the United States often grow tallB. the crop which scientists have studied looks beautifulC. global warming is caused by Europe and the United StatesD.

60、eld Testing of a Grass.D. New Types of Power Plants.EWhat you give your relatives and friends can help you know yourself better. Also, what they give you can tell you something about their personality. Most gift-giving (and getting) shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it i
61、s possible to form some associations between the kinds of things brought and the people who buy them. Here is a guide to who gives what and why.The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be see but how you see yourself as well. When someo
62、ne gives you something to war that agrees with your self-image, theyre saying, “I agree with you. I like you the way you are.” Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment (赞美). On the other hand, a gift of clothing that doesnt match your personality could be an insult (侮辱) to your character.
63、Making something by hand has become the exception in many countries today. If you receive a homemade gift, youre lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. Theyve given time and emotion, two important characteristics of being creative.A person who thinks of food
64、 when thinking of gift is good example of what human warmth means. Whether you give a box of chocolate, a bag of oranges, or a ball of cheese, all carry the same message of comfort and support.People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. If you happen t
65、o receive a large, heavy book, its giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Of course, reading is a way of feeling the emotions of another person and of learning new things. Giving a book can be a way of sharing a feeling or newly learn meaning. T
66、he giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.72. The first paragraph is written mainly to tell readers that _.A. the gifts you give can help you understand yourself better than any other waysB. there is a certain relationship between the gifts and the people who give themC. th
67、e gifts you receive help you learn the personality of the giversD. between relatives and friends a gift may show friendship and love73. A person who likes the self-image of another person will give the latter a gift _.A. fashionable and expensiveB. made at home by himselfC. that agrees with the pers
68、onality of the receiverD. that matches the character of the giver74. If you give a large book as a gift, it may show that _.A. you enjoy reading and will be successful in writingB. the receiver is interested in reading and hopes to be a writerC. you want to share with others a certain feelingD. you

74、A Call or a Letter, Which Is Better？,With the development of communication technology, telephone has become much move popular than letters. However, writing letters is still some peoples favorite.

If there is something urgent, the best way is certainly making a phone call rather than writing a letter and then posting it.
