Although, most of these cars are bought by parents, some teens get part

Still, I was struck by a report which concluded that todays children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s. In fact, the analysis showed, normal children aged

216、 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago.Why are Americas kids so stressed?

But unlike human,

315、 plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet awaystraight up. A decade ago, adopting the infrared(红外线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are un

316、der stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide(杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that dont have pest problems.Even better, Paleys Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the ey

317、e. Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a colourcoded map showing where plants were running “fevers”. Farmers could then spotspray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The b

318、ad news is that Paleys company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and longterm backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture

319、experts have no doubt the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States, ” says George Oerther of Texas A & M. Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the en

320、d of the decade. But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.36Plants will send out an increased amount of heat when they are_.Afacing an infrared scannerBsprayed with pesticidesCin poor physical conditionDexposed to excessive sun rays37In order to apply pest

324、riers are considered one of the most important marine weapons in the 20th century. So far, only two countries in the world, the USA and France, have ever produced them. But these fearful fighting machines are about to enter Asia.The US Navy said last month that one of its nine nuclearpowered aircraf

325、t carriers will be sent to Japan to replace the diesel(柴油)powered carrier Kitty Hawk in 2008. In an agreement on October 30, the two countries also planned to level up their military (军事的) cooperation and the USA called for Japan to take a larger role in alliance military moves.It will be the first

326、time that a nuclearpowered carrier is based in Japan. Bombed by US forces in World War at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan is the only world country to have been attacked by a nuclear weapon. Therefore, the citizens are highly sensitive to where nuclearpowered weapons are based.“A radiation leak at Yok

327、osuka would kill 100,000 people as far away as Tokyo, and could cause billions of dollars in damage,” said Masahiko Goto, leader of a protest group in Yokosuka. His group has collected more than 300,000 signatures of people across Japan opposed to the nuclear carrier.The 44yearold Kitty Hawk, the US

328、 Navys oldest active ship, has been based in Yokosuka since 1998. It had returned to the US to be decommissioned in 2008. The new carrier, yet to be unveiled,_will travel faster, be capable of supporting longer operations and carry with it the Navys most modern technology.Experts pointed that this c

329、hange is not only to strengthen the USJapan military alliance but also to keep the military power of China and North Korea within limits. However, even Japanese experts dont believe that the two countries are threats to the region.“There is no need for Japan to have a nuclear carrier as defense,” sa

330、id Tetsuo Maeda, an international relations professor at Tokyo International University. He said that the change of ship indicates an increased military capability in the region, much more than what is needed.41With such a formidable weapon to enter its country, Japanese citizens _.Aare aware of its

335、r plans to develop hybrid vehicles (混合燃料汽车) for the Chinese market. Toyotas hybrid car Prius will be ready to drive in China this week. Lets have a look at the new car.Any vehicle is a hybrid when it combines two or more sources of power. Hybrid cars run off a rechargeable battery and gasoline. Hybr

336、id cars have special engines, which are smaller than traditional gasoline engines. They run at 99 percent of their power when the car is cruising (匀速行驶). A specially designed battery motor provides extra power for running up hills or when extra acceleration is needed.Step into a Prius, and turn on t

337、he engine. The first thing you notice is how much quieter it is than a traditional car. At this point, the cars gasoline engine is dormant (休眠). The electric motor will provide power until the car reaches about 24 km/h. If you stay at a low speed, you are effectively driving an electric car, with no

338、 gasoline being used, and no waste gas gives off.The onboard(车载的) computer makes the decision about when to use a gas engine, when to go electric, and when to use a combination of the two. If you go over 24 km/h, when you step on the gas pedal (油门), you are actually telling the computer how fast you

339、 want to go.The electronic motor recharges automatically using a set of batteries. When driving at high speed, the gasoline engine not only powers the car, but also charges the batteries. Any time you use the brake, the electric motor in the wheels will work like a generator and produce electricity

340、to recharge the batteries. As a consequence, the cars batteries will last for around 200,000 miles.46The author writes this passage mainly to_.Ateach people how to drive a hybrid car Bintroduce a new kind of “green” car Cshow how to save their gasoline when driving a car Dannounce plans to develop h

343、t feature of hybrid cars?AThey are powered by both a rechargeable battery and gasoline.BThey are much quieter than traditional cars.CThey only use 99 percent of their power to run up hills.DThey have smaller engines than traditional gasoline ones.50What can we conclude from the story?AThe batteries

345、asses the point of supplying all the basic essentials of lifefood, shelter, clothes and warmth. Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs which have now been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of w

346、ork which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In other words, we either raise our standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours.I shall take it for granted that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter

347、 alternative. Men will be working shorter and shorter hours in their paid employment. It follows that the housewife will also expect to be able to have more leisure in her life without lowering her standard of living. It also follows that human domestic servants will have completely ceased to exist.

348、 Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relieved completely from the routine operations of the home such as scrubbing the floors or the bath of the cooker, or washing the clothes or washing up, or dusting or sweeping, or making beds.By far the most logical step to relieve the house

349、wife of routine is to provide a robot which can be trained to the requirements of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operations, when switched by the housewife.51.As civilization develops in the direction of technology,_.Athe basic essentials of life m

Deluca, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend. Buck asked Deluca about his plan for the future. “

377、Im going to college, but I need a way to pay for it,” Deluca recalls saying. “Buck said, you should open a sandwich shop.”That afternoon, they agreed to be partners. And they set a goal: to open 32 stores in ten years. After doing some research, Buck wrote a check for $1,000. Deluca rented a storefr

378、ont (店面) in Connecticut, and when they couldnt cover their startup costs, Buck kicked in another $1,000.But business didnt go smoothly as they expected. Deluca says, “After six months, we were doing poorly, but we didnt know how badly, because we didnt have any financial controls.” All he and Buck k

379、new was that their sales were lower than their costs.Deluca was managing the store and to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York. Theyd meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. “We convinced

380、 ourselves to open a second store. We figured we could tell the public, We are so successful; we are opening a second store.” And they didin the spring of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error.But the partners learnasyougo approach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every F

381、riday, Deluca would drive around and handdeliver the checks to pay their supplies. “It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasnt necessary but as a result, the suppliers got to know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out,” Deluca says.And having a goal wa

382、s also important. “There are so many problems that can get you down. You just have to keep working toward your goal,” Deluca adds.Deluca ended up founding Subways Sandwich, the multimilliondollar restaurant chain. 36Deluca opened the first sandwich shop in order to _.Asupport his familyBpay for his

384、 learn about their first shop? AIt stood at an unfavorable place. BIt lowered the prices to poor management. CIt made no profits due to poor management. DIt lacked control over the quality of sandwich. 39They decided to open a second store because they _. Ahad enough money to do it Bhad succeeded in

385、 their business Cwished to meet the increasing demand of customers Dwanted to make believe(假装)that they were successful 40What contributes most to their success according to the author? ALearning by trial and error.BMaking friends with supplies. CFinding a good partner.DOpening chain stores.BI heard

386、 many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are taking the same way of

387、showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching (紧握) at one anothers hands for reassurance.They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow the

388、y all end up huddled (聚在一起) round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thusandsuch a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon (蚕茧) into a larger_cocoon.It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave

389、and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of todays parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great ba

390、rrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts

391、that you dont care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will comewith the people who respect you for who you are. That is the only kind of popularity that really counts.41In this passage, the author wants to tell _.Ateenagers to try to pursue

392、their real selvesBreaders to try to be popular with people aroundCparents to try to control and guide their childrenDpeople to try to understand and respect each other42The author disapproves of rebelling teenagers _.Agrowing away from their parentsBfollowing the popularity trend Cwalking a new way

393、on their ownDturning to their friends for help43.The phrase “larger cocoon” at the end of the second paragraph refers to _.Athe distractive and variable societyBthe dazzling music worldCthe parental care and loveDthe popularity wave in the society 44What does the author think of advertisements?AConv

394、incing. BInstructive.CInfluential. DAuthoritative.45According to the author, what might happen when a teenager stands up against the popularity wave and follows his/her own path?AHe/She falls behind the time.BHe/She loses good friends.CHe/She faces all kinds of criticism.DHe/She gains valuable popul

395、arity.CBeauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy.Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier,have better marriages and have more respectable occupations.Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs.Even judges are softer on attractive defendant

396、s(被告)But in the executive circle,beauty can become a liability.While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder,it is harmful to a woman.Handsome male executives were thought as having more integrity than plainer men;effort and ability were thought to account fo

397、r their success.Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones;their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable than the attractive female e

398、xecutives.Interestingly,though,the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes.Why are attractive women not thought to be able?An attractive woman is thought to be more feminine and an attr

399、active man more masculine(有男子气概的)than the less attractive ones.Thus,an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs,but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the“masculine”qualities required.This is true even in politics.“When the only clue is ho

400、w he or she looks,people treat men and women differently,”says Anne Bowman,who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates.She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs,one of men and one of women,in order of attractiveness.The student

401、s were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices.They were asked to rank them again,in the order they would vote for them.The results showed that attractive males utterly defeated unattractive men,but the women who had been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest vo

413、l, then you are probably not sleeping well. Worry can keep you awake, and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fall asleep. When you wake up, you dont feel refreshed, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper articl

414、e entitled Stress and Sleep, indicates that stress / worry and (lack of ) sleep are directly related. Dr. Winkle says, “The more we worry, the less we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with stress. If we can find a way to get a good nights sleep,” he adds, “we can often find the energy to deal w

415、ith whats worrying us.”So, what is a good nights sleep? Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy varies a lot. Seven hours is about the average amount, though strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more refres

416、hed.Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically

417、as well as mentally tired. A bedtime drink can also help, but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine and will keep you awake. “When you put the light out,” Dr. Winkle says, “concentrate on relaxing your muscles, working slowly up from your feet, and youll be asleep before you know
