13、of 1972 when she was a freshman and I was a senior. As a five- year chemical engineering major, I had one elective to spare, and Ellen said, how about oceanography?

In order to take a perfect picture
19、 of the moon, apart from a highquality camera, the associated equipment and the skills to set up your camera, you also need to pick a proper time and a good place. Choose your favorite moon phase. The moon can be photographed in any phase except the new moon, which is not visible to Earth. The first
20、 quarter, half, and third quarter phases provide high contrast that allows you to see the craters(坑) in greater detail, while the full moon is a dramatic choice for a skyscraper. What phase you choose is up to your personal preference, but its best to have a phase chosen before going out to photogra
21、ph the moon. Learn when the moon rises and sets. When the moon sets or rises, it is closer to the horizon, making it appear larger and closer. This makes it much easier to photograph! Check an almanac(年历) or a weather app for moon rising and setting times in your area. Pick a clear night. Clouds, fo
22、g, and air pollution will blur your photographs. Check a weather app or watch the weather forecast before leaving for your session and while photographing. A clear night with low smog content and no rain is best for moon photography. Choose a location away from direct light sources. The moon appears
23、 bright because it reflects the light of the sun, and additional light from streetlights, homes, and cars can make the moon appear duller and blurrier in pictures. It is fine if there is light in the distance, but be sure that you are not photographing close to another light source. 19. Which has th

Why the new moon is a bad choice for a perfect moon photo.CJust as regulation has helped increase fuel ef
26、ficiency, cut exhaust smokes and introduce anti-slip equipment, so government involvement is needed to get the connected car on the road. It is beginning to happen. Earlier this year, Europes standards-setting agencies agreed a common set of agreements for cars and traffic infrastructure (基建) to com
27、municate. Others should follow. Governments should then set firm deadlines for all new cars to be fully connected and capable of matching, and a date for existing cars to be re-improved with a basic locator beacon (定位器) and the ability to receive risky warnings.If cars are to connect, new infrastruc
28、ture will have to be built. Roads and parking spaces will need sensors to monitor them; motorways will need specific lanes for matching. But this will not necessarily be expensive. Upgrading traffic signals so they can be controlled remotely by a central traffic management system is a lot cheaper th
29、an building new roads.The sooner these changes are made, and cars are plugged into a smart traffic section, the quicker Singaporean variable pricing for parking as well as road use can become the criterion. Motorists will then have the motive, as well as the ability, to avoid the busiest places at t
30、he busiest times, and the horrible death that roads take in human lives should start falling.In the past, more people driving meant more roads, more jams, more death and more smokes. In the future, the connected car could offer mankind the pleasures of the road with rather less of the pain.22.What d
31、o governments truly expect of the connected car?A. Itll be standard-friendly.B. Itll get fully prepared soon.C. Itll be under command.D. Itll promote infrastructure.23.What will happen if traffic signals are to upgrade?A. More sensors are offered by the companies.B. More special roads are needed by

And there are more and more of them every year. But is this a good
58、 thing?Not necessarily. For a start, many small shops cant compete on price with superstores such as Tesco. And they dont have as many products either. As a result, 36% of the UKs small shops shut down between 1990 and 1996 while the number of supermarkets increased from 457 to 1,102. Supermarkets h
59、ave even had a negative effect on the British pub. Beer and wine is much cheaper in a supermarket than in a pub. There are now over 55,000 supermarkets in the UK, but less than 55,000 pubs. A decade ago there were more than 61,000. These days, pubs are closing at the rate of 39 a week!Supermarkets a
60、re also bad for animal welfare. The UK has high standards in this field, but some supermarkets get their meat from abroad. And in many cases, this meat is produced under conditions that would be illegal in the UK. But once theyve got the meat, supermarkets put a British flag on the product as the me
61、at is packed there. Dishonest? Not exactly, but it isnt entirely true either!Supermarkets have a poor environmental record too. Many of them dont store food products themselves as storage space is expensive, so they get food producers to do it for them. This means that supermarket lorries have to ma
62、ke more trips to collect supplies. In turn, this increases the amount of petrol used, which leads to more pollution. Supermarkets also use a lot of plastic packaging, which isnt good for the environment either. So, what can be done to help the “little guys”? Not much really. Supermarkets have a lot
63、of power. Many political parties receive donations from supermarkets. And supermarkets often use their money to influence decisions. For example, just before the year 2000, one supermarket gave the government 12 million to help build the Millennium Dome in London. Later, plans to tax supermarket car
