12、here it removed the oak population, just under a decade ago via imported plants. In Britain the disease jumped to rhododendrons (杜鹃花) and Japanese larch trees. In the last year it has taken hold along the west of the country in larch plantations. Already 4 million trees have been felled or marked fo
13、r destruction. More are expected to be chopped down in the coming years because the warmer, wetter conditions expected with climate change encourage the spread of the disease. In the latest cull (剔除), a landowner in Somerset was forced to cut down 50,000 trees, while the National Trust chopped down
14、10,000 larch trees in the area. Landowners face crippling costs for felling sick trees. Philip Chambers said that landowners had been forced to pay to chop down larch trees even though the timber was worth very little. He compared the situation to the foot and mouth crisis when farmers were forced t
15、o cull their cows to stop the disease spreading. “It is for trees what foot and mouth was for cows, except there is no compensation (补偿) for the landed gentry,” he said. Experts from the Forestry Commission are carrying out inspections across Britain and will order a cull wherever the disease is fou
16、nd. It takes hold quickly, causing bleeding lesions, blackened or wilted leaves and, ultimately, death. It can also affect garden shrubs, such as rhododendron and camellia. Charlton Clark, of the commission, said landowners could be offered a small grant to pay for the culls. “The equivalent of 4, 4
17、00 football pitches of Japanese larch have so far been confirmed as infected with ramorum disease in the UK, and they either have been or will be felled to prevent the disease from spreading,” he said. There is no known cure for the disease and Mr Clark warned that Japanese larch could be wiped out

21、ing year, as Chinas economy slows down and unemployment rises. Experts say a chronic over-supply of graduates and a shortage of“high end”jobs had already been causing difficulties, but the mass lay-offs and business closures (倒闭)in recent months has made the situation even worse. Chinese Prime Minis
22、ter Wen Jiabao has told students that the problem of graduate employment is“at the top of the governments agenda(议事日程)”. Six and a half million graduates in China will be looking for a job over the next year. The government says it is going to try to create nine million jobs for them and for those f
23、rom previous years who are still unemployed. That will not be easy though. Economic growth in China is expected by some to fall below the figure of 8%, cited by many as the minimum needed to continue to create enough jobs. There are three problems for the new graduates to cope with. Firstly the econ
24、omic slowdown here means there are fewer jobs available. Secondly widespread redundancies mean there are more experienced people than there might have been in previous years trying to secure the same jobs as them. Thirdly there are many graduates from previous years who are still jobless. Shattered

She said everyone thought it would be easy for her to get a job when she graduated, because Shanghai will host the World Expo in 2010. But even though she has had dozens of interviews at job fairs, she has no
26、t managed to land the kind of job she wanted. “Ive ended up with an intern(实习)job,” she says, “which is nothing to do with my major.” she says she is earning about $230 (159)a month, more than many of her classmates who have had to take jobs that give them half that, but far less than she had hoped

The delays involve a security clearance process called Visas Mant
32、is. Through this program, different government agencies try to identify visa applicants who could threaten national security. The aim is to protect American military technology or technology with possible military uses to other countries or to terrorists. A 2005 report said that seventy percent of M
33、antis requests came from China, Russia and Ukraine. The United States strengthened its visa requirements after the terrorist attacks in 2001. But the Visas Mantis program already existed by then. The State Department combined several programs dating to the Cold War into the current program in 1998.
34、There have been delays before. Officials said the average processing time in October of 2003 was seventy-five days. The wait was cut to fifteen days under pressure from Congress. But the wait time has increased again over the past year. Andy Laine, a State Department spokesman, says the program now
35、has more workers and new procedures. He says the changes went into effect on May twenty-ninth with the goal to process all requests within two weeks. But he also says many visas are delayed because foreign students do not bring all their paperwork when required to present their travel documents. He
36、advises students to make an appointment at an American embassy or consulate as soon as they are accepted to a school. They should take all their acceptance materials with them. Higher education groups complained about the delays for foreign science students and scholars. So did professional groups t
37、hat hold international conferences in the United States. The delays may be one reason why graduate school applications from international students have slowed for the third year. Early findings show that applications rose just four percent from 2008 to 2009. The Council of Graduate Schools says this
38、 followed an increase of six percent last year and nine percent the year before that. 1. What is the purpose of Visas Mantis? A. To ensure the applicants are not in danger. B. To make sure the applicants are not dangerous. C. To avoid the visas delays. D. To protect the technology of the applicants.
39、 2. From the text, we can see that_.A. some visas delays are caused by foreign studentsB. the Visas Mantis program was carried out from 2003C. now the processing time has been limited to two weeksD. most applicants said the delays were understandable3. What result did the visa delays cause? A. There
40、 are fewer international conferences held in U. S. A. B. The Visas Mantis program has to be called off. C. Some international students did apply for education there. D. The programs dating to the Cold War were canceled. 4. According to Andy Laine, what should the students do if they are accepted to
41、a school? A. Make an appointment at an American embassy or consulate. B. Dont take too many materials in order to save time. C. Present the visas to the government agencies immediately. D. Receive the checking through Visas Mantis as soon as possible. 5Below is a web page from Google.OlympicModern O

Fish diet to avoid being beaten up,thrown out of their social group,and getting eaten as a result. That is the fascinating conclusion of the latest research into
71、 fish behavior by a team of Australian scientists.The research team have discovered that subordinate fish voluntarily diet to avoid challenging their larger competitors. “In studying gobies we noticed that only the largest two individuals,a male and a female,had breeding(繁殖)rights within the group,”
72、 explains Marian Wong. “All other group members are nonbreeding females,each being 510% smaller than its next largest competitor. We wanted to find out how they maintain this precise size separation.”The reason for the size difference was easy to see. Once a subordinate fish grows to within 510% of
73、the size of its larger competitor,it causes a fight which usually ends in the smaller goby being driven away from the group. More often than not, the evicted fish is then eaten up.It appeared that the smaller fish were keeping themselves small in order to avoid challenging the boss fish. Whether the
74、y did so voluntarily,by restraining how much they ate,was not clear. The research team decided to do an experiment. They tried to fatten up some of the subordinate gobies to see what happened. To their surprise,the gobies simply refused the extra food they were offered,clearly preferring to remain s
75、mall and avoid fights,over having a feast.The discovery challenges the traditional scientific view of how boss individuals keep their position in a group. Previously it was thought that large individuals simply used their weight and size to threaten their subordinates and take more of the food for t
76、hemselves,so keeping their competitors small.While the habits of gobies may seem a little mysterious,Dr. Wong explains that understanding the relationships between boss and subordinate animals is important to understanding how hierarchical(等级的)societies remain stable.The research has proved the fact
77、 that voluntary dieting is a habit far from exclusive to humans. “As yet,we lack a complete understanding of how widespread the voluntary reduction of food intake is in nature,” the researchers comment. “Data on human dieting suggests that,while humans generally diet to improve health or increase at
78、tractiveness,rarely does it improve long-term health and males regularly prefer females that are fatter than the females own ideal.”1. When a goby grows to within 510% of the size of its larger competitor,it.A. faces dangerB. has breeding rightsC. eats its competitorD. leaves the group itself2. The
