16、sure will be lower and lower.BSolid passes sound very well. Try holding a wooden stick against part of a machine, and place your ears against the stick. The movement of the ball-bearings(滚珠轴承) can be clearly heard. This is a good way of finding the exact source of trouble in a motorcar engine which
17、sounds as if it is wrong and yet gives no information of where the trouble is. It is probably a good thing that sound cannot travel through a vacuum(真空), for we are thus limited to earth-made sounds. The violent disturbances which are seen sometimes in the sun, for example, may affect our magnetism(
18、磁力) and our radio. They do not affect our ears, which is a very good thing for our peace of mind. If we have used our eyes and ears, we may have realized that sound takes time to travel through the air. The sound of thunder nearly always follows the lightning flash although they happen at exactly th
19、e same time. And the appearance of white cloud above a distant ship or train tells us, before anything is heard, that its whistle has sounded. Just how fast does sound travel through the air? The speed of sound in the air at ordinary temperature is about 100 feet per second, which is about one mile
20、in five seconds or about 700 miles per hour. The speed of sound increases slightly with a rise in temperature and falls with a decrease in temperature; it is not affected by the pressure of the air. 24. We never hear anything that happens on the sun _. A. because of the vacuum between the earth and
21、the sun B. because we are only used to earth-made sound C. because of the distance between the earth and the sun D. because we are likely to enjoy our peace of mind 25. According to the passage, how fast does sound travel through the air at ordinary temperature? A. About 700 meters per minute. B. Ab
22、out 1,100 miles per hour. C. About 60,000 feet per minute. D. About one kilometer in five seconds. 26. How do temperature and pressure affect the speed of sound? A. The speed of sound increase with a rise in pressure. B. The speed of sound decrease with a rise in temperature. C. The speed of sound i
23、ncrease in lower temperature and greater pressure. D. The speed of sound decreases with a fall in temperature. 27. The underlined sentence in the second paragraph means “_”. A. thus we can hear anything but the sound made by the earth B. we can thus hear the sound from both the earth and space C. th
24、us we can hardly hear any sound because of the limit of the earth D. thus we can only hear the sound made on the earth, not the sound coming from the outsideCIn recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts believ
25、e that the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? There is something to suggest that while variety certainly makes the workers life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. So variety is not important. Other experts feel that givin
26、g the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated(复杂的) machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be imp
27、ortant, there is usually very little that can be done to make it. Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are said to be experimenting with having many sm
28、all production lines rather than a large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is degree of worker contribution important, therefore. To what extent on earth, however, does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers
29、 themselves certainly think this important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, th
30、ey will neither want more money, nor will shorter working hours be so important to them. 28. Which of the following ways cant be used to make greater productivity? A. To make jobs more varied. B. To give the worker freedom to do his job in his own way. C. Degree of work contribution. D. Demands for
31、longer working hours. 39. The last sentence in this passage means that if we succeed in making workers jobs more interesting, _. A. they will want more money B. they will demand shorter working hours C. more money and shorter working hours are important D. more money and shorter working hours will n
32、ot be so important to them 30. In this passage, the writer tells us _. A. how to make the workers more productive B. possible factors(因素) leading to greater productivity C. to what extent more money leads to greater productivity D. how to make workers jobs more interesting 31. The writer of this pas
33、sage is probably a _. A. teacher B. worker C. manager D. physicist D Three months after the government stopped giving or renewing permits for Internet cafes because of safety concerns, some cafe owners are having economy worries of their own. The permits were stopped suddenly three months ago by the
34、 government until new safeguards could be put in place to prevent misuse of the information superhighway, but for cafe owners its a business breakdown with no hope in sight. “I handed in a request to open up an Internet cafe and received the conditions.” said the businessman Obeham. “I rented a plac
35、e in the Sharafiah district at SR45, 000 and prepared the place with equipment that cost me more than SR100,000. When I went to the local government after finishing everything, I was surprised to find that theyd stopped giving permits for Internet cafes.” Having an Internet cafe without Internet is
36、much like having a coffee shop without coffee. “Im avoiding closing the place, but its been more than three months with the situation ongoing as it is,” Obeham said. “Who will bear the losses caused by that?”The decision took many cafe owners by surprise. I asked to open an Internet cafe, and I was
37、handed a list of all the things that were needed to follow through, such as a sign for the place, filling out forms. said Hassan Al-Harbi. “I did all that was asked and rented a place. And after the vacation I went to the local government and they surprised me, saying that there are new rules that f
38、orbid the offering of any more Internet cafe permits and that one cant even renew his permit. Ive lost more than SR80,000,” Al-harbi added.As for the government, officials say a method to deal with it is on the way, but safety concerns come before economy.32.
