17、h school teacher who grew up in southern Oregon of the USA, revealed that most people he meets are always surprised when they discover hes white. He said that one of the most common responses to his name is “I never wouldve guessed your name was Jamaal”. In a blog post he aired his thoughts on this,
18、 writing: Really, are you frequently good at guessing peoples names?” Another reaction to his name, he said, is you dont look like a Jamaal, to which he asked in response, And how exactly does one look like a name?”He wrote in the blog that some people, after meeting him, say “I thought youd beand t

In p
25、ractice, things are trickier. Storing meaningful quantities of hydrogen gas requires compressing (压缩) it several hundred times. Transforming it into liquid state is another option, but one that requires cooling the stuff to -253. Either process requires rugged tanks. Over time, hydrogen gas can pass
26、 slowly into metals, weakening them and potentially causing cracks. Tanks must be built from special materials designed to resist this breakdown.Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute led by Marcus Vogt, think that supplying hydrogen as goop (糊状) offers a way around some of its limitations. They ha
27、ve been experimenting with a chemical compound that can be pumped into a container and then persuaded to give off its hydrogen on demand.Their invention, which they nickname “powerpaste”, looks like toothpaste. Its main ingredient is magnesium hydride, a compound that when introduced to water, react
28、s with it to form hydrogen and magnesium hydroxide. The escaped hydrogen can then be redirected into a fuel cell, where it reacts with oxygen from the air to generate electric power. The magnesium hydroxide waste is emptied from the reactor automatically.Dr Vogts scheme offers several advantages ove
29、r batteries, petrol and more conventional ways of handling hydrogen. One is the storage of energy than either batteries or petrol can manage. A second is ease of refilling, which is simply a matter of swapping an empty container of paste for a full one, and topping up the water, which is stored in a
30、 separate tank. A third advantage is that, unlike a battery, the paste does not gradually lose its stored energy if it is left on the shelf. Moreover, the paste itself is harmless, as are the reactions by-products.But there are still more to work through. Magnesium hydride reacts only slowly with wa
31、ter. To overcome this, Dr Vogt and his team have found a chemical additive that greatly accelerates the reaction. They have also found a way to ensure that the reaction can be controlled precisely enough to supply only as much hydrogen as is needed at any given moment.28Which of the following best e
32、xplains “rugged” underlined in paragraph 1?ACreative.BFragile.CTough.DEnormous.29What can we know about the invention according to paragraph 3?AMagnesium hydride mixed with water releases hydrogen.BSeveral chemical reactions occur in the same tank.CWater and electricity are necessary in the process.
33、DThe remaining waste needs removing with extra help.30How is paragraph 4 mainly developed?ABy providing examples.BBy drawing comparisons.CBy quoting sayings.DBy explaining a concept.31What can be a suitable title for the text?ADream Fuel: Hydrogen GasBNew Clean EnergyCAdvantages of Hydrogen GoopD“To
34、othpaste” in Your TankDThe Undergoing Welfare ReformWhile still in its early stages, welfare reform has already been judged a great success in many states - at least in getting people off welfare. Its estimated that more than 2 million people have left the rolls since 1994.In the past four years, we
35、lfare rolls in Athens County have been cut in half. But 70 percent of the people who left in the past two years took jobs that paid less than $6 an hour. The result: The Athens County poverty rate still remains at more than 30 percent - twice the national average. For advocates for the poor, thats a
36、n indication that much more needs to be done.More people are getting jobs, but its not making their lives any better, says Kathy Lairn, a policy analyst at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in Washington.A center analysis of US Census data nationwide found that last year, a greater percenta
37、ge of single, female-headed households were earning money on their own, but that average income for these households actually went down.But for many, the fact that poor people are able to support themselves almost as well without government aid as they did with it is in itself a huge victory.Welfare
38、 was a poison. It was a toxin that was poisoning the family, says Robert Rector, a welfare-reform policy analyst. The reform is changing the moral climate in low-income communities. Its beginning to rebuild the work ethic, which is much more important.Mr. Rector and others argued that once the habit
39、 of dependency is cracked, then the country can make other policy changes aimed at improving living standards.32Why dont people enjoy their lives better when they get jobs?ABecause they are used to relying on welfare to make livings.BBecause the cost of living is higher than before.CBecause many fam
