Attaching radio devices to it is difficult and visual sightings are too unreliable to give real insight i
72、nto its behavior.So biologists were delighted early this year when, with the help of the US Navy, they are able to track a particular blue whale for 43 days recording its sounds. This was possible because of the Navys former top secret system of underwater listening devices across the oceans.Trackin
73、g whales is but one example of an exciting new world just opening to civilian scientists after the cold war as the Navy starts to share and partly uncover its global network of underwater listening system built over the decades to track the ships of potential enemies.Earth scientists announced at a
74、news conference recently that they had used the system for closely observing a deep-sea volcanic eruption for the first time and that they planned similar studies. Other scientists have proposed to use the network for tracking ocean currents and measuring changes in the ocean and global temperatures
75、. Different layers of ocean water can act as channels for sounds focusing them in the same way a stethoscope(听诊器) does when it carries faint noises from a patients chest to a doctors ear. This focusing is the main reason that even relatively weak sounds in the ocean, especially low-frequency ones, c

The underwater listening system was originally designed _.A. to trace and locate enemy shipsB. to observe deep sea volcanic eruptionsC. to study the movement of ocean currentsD. to replace the global radio communications network65. The deep-sea listening system
77、 makes use of _.A. the ability of sound to travel at high speedB. the top-level technology of focusing sounds under waterC. the unique characteristic of layers of ocean water in carrying soundD. low-frequency sounds traveling across different layers of water66. What can we infer from the passage?A.
78、New radio devices are developed for tracking the blue whales.B. Blue whales are no longer endangered with the new system.C. Opinions differ on the use of military technology.D. Military technology has great potential in civilian use.67. What is the passage chiefly about?A. An effort to protect an en

80、ng the cautious type, I fancied a reliable brand. So I went on the net, spent 15 minutes reading product reviews on good websites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations and headed for my nearest big friendly camera store. There in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my list. And it wa
81、s on special offer. I pointed at it and asked an assistant, “Can I have one of those?”? He looked perturbed (不安). “Do you want to try it first?” he said. It didnt quite sound like a question. “Do I need to?” I replied ,“There is nothing wrong with it?” This made him look a bit insulted and I started
82、 to feel bad. “No, no. But you should try it,” he said encouragingly. “Compare it with the others. ” I looked across at the others: shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering a wide range of slightly different prices and discounts, with each company selling a range of models based ar
83、ound the same basic box. With so many models to choose from, it seemed that I would have to spend hours weighing X against Y, always trying to take Z and possibly H into account at the same time. But when I had finished, I would still have only the same two certainties that I had entered the store w
84、ith: first, soon after I carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what I paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new model. But something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps by making the right choice, the clever choi
85、ce, the wise choice. In the end, I agreed to try the model I had chosen. The assistant seemed a sincere man. So I let him take out of my chosen camera from cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppers and when he started to introduce the special features, I interrupted to ask
86、whether I needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as well. Why do we think that new options still offer us anything new? Perhaps it is because they offer an opportunity to avoid facing the fact that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine.68. The shop
87、 assistant insisted that the writer should_. A. try the camera to see if there was anything wrong with it. B. compare the camera he had chosen with the others. C. get more information about different companies. D. trust him and stop asking questions. 69. What does the writer mean by “it would be wor
