I spend all morning in front of my network computer working until lunchtime.What do you do after work?Well, I leave the office at 1 pm and have lunch

11、. If the weather is fine, I pack my equipment and set off to the location of the stunt. When I get there, I set up the equipment and get into the water. This is when the fun starts. I move about in and under the water in a wetsuit and helmet (潜水服和头盔) performing tricks. Its quite tiring though, becau

12、se each stunt is different and takes a different length of time. A photo shoot usually takes a long time to complete because everything has to be perfect.What do you do when you are not diving?I enjoy water-skiing, kayaking and snorkelling (带呼吸管潜泳).

13、practicing and training for my stunts.How do you like working underwater?I love it. It can be a bit boring in the winter, though, when the weather is cold.

16、th century scientist, was very smart, but that didnt stop him from doing some pretty stupid things. In his laboratory in Cambridge he often did the strangest experiments. Once, while testing how light passes through lenses (晶状体), he put a long needle into his eye, pushed it to the back, and then mov

17、ed it around just to see what would happen. Luckily, nothing long-lasting did. On another occasion he stared at the sun for as long as he could bear, to discover what effect this would have on his sight. Again he escaped sufferingpermanentdamage, though he had to spend some days in a darkened room b

18、efore his eyes recovered.In the 1750s the Swedish chemist Karl Scheele was the first person to find a way to produce phosphorus (磷). He in fact discovered eight more chemical elements including chlorine (氯), though he didnt get any praise for them. He was a very clever scientist, but his one failing

19、 was a curious habit of tasting a little of every substance he worked with. This risky practice finally caught up with him, and in 1786 he was found dead in his laboratory surrounded by a large number of dangerous chemicals, any of which might have been responsible for his death.Eugene Shoemaker was

20、 a respected geologist. He spent a large part of his life studying craters (火山口) on the moon, and how they were formed, and later did research into the comets of the planet Jupiter. In 1997 he and his wife were in the Australian desert where they went every year to search for places where comets mig

21、ht have hit the earth. While driving in the Tanami desert, normally one of the emptiest places in the world, another vehicle crashed into them and Shoemaker was killed on the spot. Some of his ashes (骨灰) were sent to the moon aboard the Lunar Prospector spacecraft and left therehe is the only person

24、A. special honorsB. great achievementsC. famous experimentsD. suffering in the job CInternational model United Nations meetings are events at which high school and college students from all over the world play the role of UN representatives. These meetings are largely based on the real United Nation

25、s. They are even divided into many of the same groups, such as the UN Security Council and the World Health Organization. The events allow students to develop and strengthen skills that are important for international careers, such as politics or international law.One of the main goals of the meetin

26、gs is to develop effective (有效的) communication skills. Because of this, students take part in many presentations (陈述), debates, and written research tasks. For example, at the end of every meeting, each student group writes a suggestion for solving one major world problem that they have learned abou

27、t through their research tasks. These groups then discuss their suggestion with the rest of the student representatives in order to get them to support it. They may also discuss and solve invented problems, such as imaginary wars or natural disasters. Such activities challenge students abilities to

28、express their thoughts in a clear, thoughtful way.In addition to working on basic communication, students at the meetings try to express themselves in polite ways that help to solve problems. This is perhaps the most difficult task for real UN delegates (代表), so model UN organizers put great importa

29、nce on it. The organizers strongly encourage students to try to understand the ideas of others, consider their feelings, and agree on solutions.The meetings are also designed to help students become more open-minded. Students often play the role of representatives for countries other than their own.

30、 This encourages them to learn more about other cultures and to think about important problems in different ways. While pretending to be from a different country, students are receiving a lot of ideas and information that they would not normally consider. Usually, they come away with a much better u

32、To help them decide between careers.C. To get other students to support them.D. To find solutions to major world problems.29. Why do students play the role of representatives for other countries?A. To learn to communicate politely.B. To put themselves in others shoes.C. To consider problems in new w

33、ays.D. To decide which culture is the best.30. What does the author say about students learning only in traditional classrooms?A. They are given a lot of information.B. They dont learn about international events.C. Its easy for them to understand their classmates.D. It can be hard for them to unders

34、tand other cultures.31. What is the text mainly about?A. Why viewpoints are changing at the UN.B. How to solve invented problems at the UN.C. What students learn at model UN conferences.D. Which countries take part in model UN meetings. DWhen temperatures are high, walking on hot roadways, parking l

35、ots, and other paved surfaces can really burn your feet. All of that heat comes from the energy of the sun reacting with the pavement. But what if we could turn that energy into electricity? It may sound like a crazy science dream, but an electrical engineer and his wife may have found a way to do j

36、ust that.Scott Brusaw has developed a six-sided glass panel (面板) that contains solar cells, which can change sunlight into electricity. The panels fit together and can form a flat surface on the ground. Brusaw and his wife, Julie, founded a company called Solar Roadways to further develop the idea a

37、nd produce these new solar panels. They plan to use their invention to replace the pavement onU.S.roads.According to the Brusaws, if we replaced all of the nations asphalt (沥青) with these solar panels, the network would produce more than three times the amount of electricity currently used by the Un

38、ited States in a year. In return, electricity from solar panels doesnt produce harmful pollution, so the panels could be a smart choice for the environment.TheU.S.government sees some promise in the Solar Roadways project. A number of laboratories around the country have tested the panels to see if

39、they can withstand (经受) the heavy traffic and rough weather that asphalt pavement suffers from year to year. The lab results show that not only do the panels meet the requirements, but they can actually handle more weight than they need to.Now, money must be raised to start building the panel paveme

40、nt system. The Brusaws have raised more than $1 million from ordinary people who learned abouttheir project. However, some experts predict the Brusaws plan could finally cost more than $1 trillion.Could Solar Roadways be the answer to the worlds ever-growing need for electricity? A lot of obstacles

41、(阻碍) stand in the way of re-creating the highway system out of solar panels. But the Brusaws may just be paving a road to the future.32.
