But watch
14、ing “Moose”, a friends five-pound Chihuahua, race around a living room after his sweet snack makes one wonder: Is chocolate truly poisonous to dogs? Dogs and humans have similar tastes. But unlike humans, our companions experience dangerous effects from eating chocolate it can poison them and in som
15、e cases is fatal. Chocolates danger to dogs depends on its quality. Chocolate is processed from the bitter seeds of the cocoa tree, which contain a family of compounds known as methylxanthines（一种衍生物）. This class of substances includes caffeine and the related chemical theobromine(可可碱). Chocolate con
16、tains a significant amount of theobromine and smaller amounts of caffeine. These chemicals can cause a dogs heart to race up to twice its normal rate, and some dogs may run around as if “they drank a gallon of espresso（浓咖啡）,” according to Hackett. Dogs are capable of handling some chocolate, but it
17、depends on the animals weight and the type of chocolate it eats. Unsweetened baking chocolate contains more than six times as much theobromine as milk chocolate, although amounts vary between cocoa beans as well as different brands of chocolate. Less than four ounces of milk chocolate is potentially
18、 fatal for Moose and other small dogs. Around every confection-centered holiday Valentines Day, Easter and Christmas at least three or four dogs are hospitalized overnight in the animal medical center at Colorado State. But in 16 years, Hackett has seen just one dog die from chocolate poisoning, and
19、 he suspects it may have had an underlying disease that made it more exposed to chocolates heart racing effect.26. The underlined expression “belly-up” probably means_. A. dead B. poisonous C. running around D. having a headache27. All of the following are true EXCEPT_. A. chocolates danger to dogs
20、depends on its quantity and quality B. people buy lots of chocolate around Valentines Day C. an ounce of unsweetened baking chocolate is safe for Moose D. there must be some theobromine or caffeine in espresso28. What can we learn about Hackett? A. He is a vet. B. He is a pet shop owner. C. He is th
21、e owner of Moose D. He is a doctor in a small hospital.29. It can be inferred from the passage that Hackett believes that_. A. chocolate is truly deadly to dogs B. its OK to give chocolate to a big dog C. pets are usually ignored around confection-centered holidays D. a healthy dog probably could su
22、rvive a chocolate poisoning30. The passage is mainly about_. A. the poisoning of Moose B. the compounds of different chocolates C. a handful MMs chocolate is poisonous D. the relation between methylxanthines and chocolate poisoningB If sustainable competitive advantage depends on workforce skills, A
23、merican firms have a problem. Human-resource management is not traditionally seen as central to the competitive survival of the firm in the United States. Skill acquisition is considered an individual responsibility. Labour is simply another factor of production to be hiredrented at the lowest possi
24、ble costmuch as one buys materials or equipment. The lack of importance attached to human-resource management can be seen in the corporate management. In an American firm the chief financial officer is almost always second in command. The post of head of human-resource management is usually a specia
25、lized job, off at the edge of the corporate hierarchy. The executive who holds it is never consulted on major strategic decisions and has no chance to move up to Chief Executive Officer(CEO). By way of contrast, in Japan the head of human-resource management is centralusually the second most importa
26、nt executive, after the CEO, in the firms hierarchy. While American firms often talk about the vast amounts spent on training their work force, in fact they invest less in the skills of their employees than do either Japanese or German firms. The money they do invest is also more highly concentrated
27、 on professional and managerial employees. And the limited investments that are made in training workers are also much more narrowly focused on the specific skills necessary to do the next job rather than on the basic background skills that make it possible to absorb new technologies. As a result, p
28、roblems arise when new breakthrough technologies arrive. If American workers, for example, take much longer to learn how to operate new flexible manufacturing stations than workers on Germany (as they do), the effective cost of those stations is lower in Germany than it is in the United States. More
29、 time is required before equipment is up and running in production, and the need for extensive retraining generates costs and creates bottlenecks that limit the speed with which new equipment can be used. The result is a slower pace of technological change, and in the end the skills of the bottom ha
30、lf of the population affect the wages of the top half. If the bottom half cant effectively make the processes that have to be operated, the management and professional jobs that go with these processes will disappear.31. Which of the following applies to the management of human resources in American
31、 companies?A. They hire people at the lowest cost with relatively best skills.B. They see the gaining of skills as their employees own business.C. They attach more importance to workers than to equipment.D. They only hire skilled workers because of keen competition. 32. What is the position of the h
32、ead of human-resource management in an American firm?A. He is one of the most important executives in the firm.B. His post is likely to disappear when new technologies are introduced.C. He is directly under the chief financial executive.D. He has no say in making important decisions in the firm. 33.
33、 The money most American firms put in training mainly goes to _ .A. workers who can operate new equipmentB. technological and managerial staffC. workers who lack basic background skillsD. top executives34. According to the passage, the decisive factor in maintaining a firms competitive advantage is_
34、 .A. the introduction of new technologiesB. the improvement of workers basic skillsC. the rational composition of professional and managerial employeesD. the attachment of importance to the bottom half of the employees35. What is the main idea of the passage ?A. American firms are different from Jap
35、anese and German firms in human-resource management.B. Extensive retraining is necessary to effective human-resource management.C. The head of human-resource management must be in the central position in a firm s hierarchy.D. The human-resource management strategies of American firms affect their co
36、mpetitive capacity.CDrawings of human colonies on other planets often picture the entire community under a glass or plastic bubble. The bubble is intended to create an atmosphere with adequate oxygen and other essential elements. But similar bubble-like structures have also been constructed on earth
37、. One of the most famous, and controversial, is a site in the Arizona desert.Biosphere 2, as it is called, was built not far from Tucson in 1984 and is now run by Columbia University. This huge（7,200,000-cubic-foot）glass and steel construction contains several separate ecosystems, including a desert
38、, a rain forest, and a 900,000-gallon “ocean.” The climatic conditions-humidity, temperature, air quality-are regulated by sensors and can be adjusted as needed or desired. For example, a rainstorm can be created to increase the humidity. The adjustable features of Biosphere 2 make it an ideal locat
39、ion to perform experiments to help determine the effects of such climatic changes as global warming.The current conditions at Biosphere 2 are vastly different from those in 1993, when eight people who had moved into the environment with great fanfare two years earlier moved out in failure. Though pr
40、omising to be self-sufficient（自足的）, these “colonists” had so much trouble regulating the environment that they reportedly had food smuggled into them. Oxygen levels became dangerously low; most plants and animals died. In taking over the unsuccessful site, Columbia hopes to erase its notorious past
41、by focusing on small research projects that gradually answer some of Biosphere 1s-that is, Earths-most basic environment questions.36This passage primarily deals with .Aconditions of life in Biosphere 2Bbuilding controlled environments on other planetsCwhy Biosphere 2 failed in the pastDwhat makes a

45、 car yesterday when it landed upside down in three feet of water. Mr. Johnson took the only escape route through the boot(行李箱). Mr. Johnsons car had finished up in a ditch at Romney Marsin Kent after skidding on ice and hitting a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly,” Mr. Johns
46、on said. “I couldnt force the doors open because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in.” Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the ho
47、rn and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape. Later he said, “It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone
48、 hear, but no help came.” It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. “It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I move
49、d the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up.” His hands and arms cut and bruised(擦伤), Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmers wife, Mrs. Lucy Bates. Huddled in a blanket, he said, “T
