14、ldwide. Not surprisingly, this well-traveled highway is starting to look like a well-traveled highway. Traffic jams can cause many serious problems, forcing the system to close down for repair.

15、Then, of course, theres Mr. Cool, with his new broad-band connection, who speeds down the highway faster than most of us can go.

20、to a doctor in a university.D. an introduction to a professor .BIf you feel at present that you dont have enough friends in your life, one reason may be that you have let yourself become too busy to make time for the relationships you already have. Starting and keeping friendship requires effort and
21、 commitment. Many of us let our lives become so busy with work and other commitments that we dont get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal with the friends, relatives and acquaintances we already have. Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to accept more of the invi

23、gether? Are you happy to have them in your life? If you havent seen much of them lately, is it because you have become too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?

24、e a good look at how you spend your time. Compare it with your real values and priorities in life. Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want? If you have become too busy for friends, why has this happened? Are you seeking material toys in your life at the expense o
25、f relationships with other human beings? Have you allowed your time to be over-committed because you never say “No” to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be left to others?

29、, “Look here for probable metal.” Walking across hilly ground, four scientists reported, “This ground should be searched for metals.” From an airplane over a hilly wasteland a scientist sent back by radio one word “Uranium.”None of the scientists had X-ray eyes: they had no magic powers for looking
30、down below the earths surface. They were merely putting to use one of the newest methods of locating minerals in the ground-using trees and plants as signs that certain minerals may lie beneath the ground on which the trees and plants are growing.This newest method of searching for minerals is based
31、 on the fact that minerals deep in the earth may affect the kind of bushes and trees that grow on the surface. At Watson Bar Creek, a mineral search group gathered bags of tree seeds. Boxes were filled with small branches from the trees. Roots were dug and put into boxes. Each bag and box was carefu
32、lly marked. In a scientific laboratory the parts of the forest trees were burned to ashes and tested. Each small part was examined to learn whether there were minerals in it.Study of the roots, branches, and seeds showed no silver. But there were small amounts of gold in the roots and a little less
33、gold in the branches and seeds. The seeds growing nearest to the tree trunk had more gold than those growing on the ends of the branches.If the trees had not indicated that there was gold in the ground, the scientists would not have spent money to pay for digging into the ground.

36、nerals D. Gold Could Be Found by Trees and PlantsD“If there is one thing Im sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers.

37、n Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives-the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters,
38、will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. Its already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic（基因的）engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do-as w
39、e develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.Its quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home.

They actually “feed off ” each other. Some people once
41、 foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasnt happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air.

42、re, . A. more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news B. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer C. newspapers will cover more scientific research D. more and more people will watch TV44.

The Future of Newspaper.E Based on new analysis, we are rapidly approaching major climate change and the effects on society and the environment could be quite severe. Geographer
45、s predict that within the next eighty years, current world climate zones could shift and some could completely disappear. Polar regions will get colder while tropical regions will get even hotter, forcing animals to migrate (迁徙) north. Climate changes like these could lead to the spread of diseases.
46、 Tropical storms and hurricanes will not only increase but may also become more intense. If the changes come too quickly, animal and plant species may not be able to adapt fast enough and could disappear. According to Science Daily, a new study predicts that by the year 2100, many of todays familiar
47、 climates will be replaced by climates unknown in todays world. It is urgent that we reduce the risks of these far-reaching consequences for the whole world.

48、n 2008, thousands died in China because of another severe earthquake. Egypt was hit in 2009 with a major earthquake and Haiti was devastated in 2010 by yet another massive earthquake.

49、te situation is much worse than previously thought. At this point, it doesnt matter what is causing it, but rather, what can be done about it.
