In this way t
24、he North American Indians produce pemmican(dried meat ground into powder and made into cakes), the Scandinavians make stockfish and the Arabs dried dates.All foods include watercabbage and other leaf vegetables contains as much as 93% water, potatoes and other root vegetables 80%, lean meat 75% and
25、fish, anything from 80% to 60%, depending on how fatty it is. If this water is removed, the activity of the bacteria(细菌)which cause food to go bad is checked.Fruit is sun-dried in Asia Minor, Greece, Spain and other Mediterranean countries, and also in California, South Africa and Australia. Various
26、 methods are used, but in general, the fruit is spread out on trays in drying yards in the hot sun.Nowadays most foods are dried mechanically. The method of such dehydration(脱水)is to put food in chambers through which hot air is blown at temperatures of about 110 at entry to about 43 at exit. This i
27、s the usual method for drying such things as vegetables, minced(切碎的)meat, and fish.Dried foods take up less room and weigh less than the same food packed in cans or frozen, and they do not need to be stored in special conditions. For these reasons they are invaluable to the climbers, explorers and s
28、oldiers in battle, who have little storage space. They are also popular with housewives because it takes so little time to cook them. Usually it is just a case of replacing the dried-out moisture with boiling water.56According to the text, the open-air method of drying food . Ais the one most common

31、mericans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of lifes essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the mo
32、rning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didnt have breakfast increased by 33 percent-from 8.8 million to 11.7 million-according to the Chicago-based Mar
33、ket Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast.“Going without breakfast does not affect p
34、erformance,”said Arnold E.Bender, former professor of nutrition（营养）at Queen Elizabeth College in London,“nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves
35、 children, not adults. “The literature,”says one researcher, Dr. Ernesto Pollitt at the University of Texas,“is poor.”60For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that . Aseveral studies have been done in the past few years.Bthe omission of breakfast does no harm to ones health.Cadults ha
36、ve especially made studies in this field.Deating little in the morning is good for health.61“nor does giving people breakfast improve performance”（in Line 17）means . Aanyone without breakfast does improve his performance.Bnot giving people breakfast improves performance.Chaving breakfast does not im
37、prove performance, either.Dpeople having breakfast do improve their performances, too.62The word“literature”in the last sentence refers to . Astories, poems, plays, etc.Bwritten works on a particular subject.Cany printed material.Dthe modern literature of America.63What is implied but NOT STATED by
38、the author is that . Abreakfast does not affect performance.BDr. Pollitt is engaged in research work at an institution of higher learning.Cnot eating breakfast might affect the health of children.DProfessor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London.CNot very long ago, the computer wa
39、s a strange machine. Not many people understand it. Not many people said yes to it. Today, much of that is changing. The first computer system was introduced for use in business in the mid-1950s. since then, the number of computer systems used in business, governments, and industries has grown rapid
40、ly. In September, 2000, about 30,000,000 systems were in use in the United States. This figure is growing by tens of thousands every year.The electric computer is an important part in our lives. Each year we use computer more and more to help us to collect data(数据)and to provide us with information.
41、 At one time, people thought computers were only useful for banks, department stores and governments but today the rapidly increasing number of computers are used for many other purposes.Have you ever stopped to think how you are affected by a digital computer? The clothes you wear probably made wit
42、h the help of a digital computer. Te newspaper, the radio and television programs are often edited and prepared by the digital computers.Computers today are playing important roles in education, transportation and medicine . They are used to predict the weather, to examine the river or ocean and to
43、develop defence systems. They are being used by business, governments and industries. There is no reason to think that their uses will decrease. Computers will become a greater part of our lives. The effect of the computer is very great.The list of its uses could go on and on. Although the first com

Awidely used Bno use at all Cliked by people Dnot understood by many people65Every year the number of computers being used has .

Adont quite notice it Bdont have known it clearlyCdont want to know about it Ddont like it67Althought the first computer was only introduced in the mid-1950s, computers now affect millions of

Athe writer did not like computers Bthe writer like computersCthe writer thought computers have developed quicklyDthe writer thought we couldnt live without computersDInsurance(保险)is the sharing of risks. Nearly everyone is exposed to risk of some so
47、rt. The house owner, for example, knows that his property can be damaged by fire; the shipowner knows that his vessel may be lost at sea; the breadwinner knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family the poorer. On the other hand, not every house is damaged by fire nor every vessel lost
48、 at sea. If these persons each put a small sum into a pool, there will be enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer loss. In other words, the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the many. This is the basis of insurance. Those who pay the contributions are known as “the insure
49、d”and those who administer the pool of contributions as“insurers”.Not all risks lead themselves to being covered by insurance. Broadly speaking, the ordinary risks of business and speculation cannot be covered. The risk that buyers will not buy goods at the prices offered is not of a kind that can b
50、e statistically estimated(评估) and risks can only be insured against if they can be so estimated.The legal basis of all insurance is the“policy”! This is a printed form of contract on paper of the best quality. It states that in return for the regular payment by the insured of a named sum of money, c
51、alled the “premium”, which is usually paid every year, the insurer will pay a sum of money or compensation for loss, if the risk or event insured against actually happens. The wording of policies, particularly in marine insurance, often seems very old-fashioned, but there is a sound reason for this.
52、 Over a large number of years many law cases have been brought to clear up the meanings of doubtful phrases in policies. The law courts, in their judgments, have given these phrases a definite and indisputable meaning, avoid future disputes the phrases have continued to and to be used in policies ev
