23、nce and as a result, threatening the nations industrial progress. According to Japan Science and Technology Agency, young Japanese are surrounded by high-tech devices (设备), but are not interested in how they work. Japanese businesses have succeeded partly because theyve a great many engineers. A dro
24、p in interest could lead to a decline in their numbers and quality. “In the past, the young had a big interest in science and technology,” said Hirano, director of the agencys policy department. There are two main reasons for the problem. The first is known as “black box syndrome(综合症)” of modern tec
25、hnology. Electronic devices depend on tiny silicon chips, which can only be made in big factories, whose working cant be seen by the eyes. The devices, unlike machines of the past driven by gears and wheels, are simply boxes. Young Japanese, brought up on video games and at home with computers, enjo
26、y using modern technology, but this is a passive interest and different from the curiosity about how things work. “You need an active interest to get interested in science. This is declining in the young,” said Hirano. About two-thirds of Japanese in their 20s use PCs, twice the number of those in t
27、heir 50s. But only 40% of those in their 20s say they are interested in news about science and technology, compared to 60% of the 50 to 60 year olds. “Another reason for it is that life in modern Japan is too comfortable,” he said. “A wealthy society reduces peoples desire to modernize and develop t

42、sewhere. Since such a wide variety of biomass materials is everywhere - from trees and grasses to agricultural and city - life wastes - biomass promises to play a continuing role in providing power and heat for millions of people around the world. According to the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS)
43、, biomass is a kind of renewable energy source that produces no carbon dioxide, because the energy it contains comes from the sun. When plant matter is burned, it gives off the suns energy. In this way, biomass serves as a sort of natural battery (电池) for storing the suns energy. As long as biomass
44、is produced continuously - with only as much grown as is used - the “battery” lasts forever. According to the Energy Information Administration, biomass has been one of the leading renewable energy sources in the United States for several years running through 2007, making up between 0.5 and 0.9 per
45、cent of the nations total electricity supply. In 2008 - although the numbers arent all in yet - wind power probably took over first place because of the rapid development of wind farms across the country. Producing power form biomass helps reduce some 11 million tons of carbon dioxide each year. Som
46、e homeowners also try to make their own heat by using biomass materials. Such practice may save homeowners money, but it also produces a lot of pollution. So, the best way is to encourage power plants to use it.42. Why is biomass considered as “a sort of natural battery”? A. It burns merely plant ma
47、tter. B. It keeps producing electricity. C. It stores the energy from the sun. D. It produces zero carbon dioxide.43. We learn from the text that in 2008 _. A. wind power would be the leader of renewable energy B. there was a rapid growth of electricity production C. biomass might become the main en
48、ergy source D. 0.5 - 0.9% of power came from biomass44. Why does the author encourage power plants to use biomass? A. To prevent the waste of energy. B. To increase production safety. C. To reduce pollution. D. To save money.45. Where does the text probably come from? A. A research plan. B. A scienc
49、e magazine. C. A book review. D. A business report.E Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. Im not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances dont come into play because they
50、do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and thats just the reality of how life is. However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at some
51、thing, one needs to spend at least 10, 000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, itll require even more time, time that most people wont put in. This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you dont enjoy what you do, it is going
52、 to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it. When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. Its sometimes easy to think the
53、y got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and theres a huge chance that youre wrong anyway. Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If
54、 youre not willing to put in the time and work, dont expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work wont guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.46. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about_. A.
55、the reasons for success B. the meaning of success C. the standards of success D. the importance of success47. In Paragraph 2, the underlined word “that” refers to _. A. being good at something B. setting a practical goal C. putting in more time D. succeeding in life48. Successful people suggest doin
56、g what one loves because_. A. work makes one feel pain B. one tends to enjoy his workC. one gives up his work easily D. it takes a lot of time to succeed49. What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A. Successful people like to show their great skills. B. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent. C
57、. People need to achieve success at the cost of life. D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.50. What is the main them of the passage? A. Having a goal is vital to success. B.
