17、d out there was a brush fire that got out of control and grew from 25 acres to 100 acres.What struck me most about that day was the word “volunteer” written on almost every piece of emergency equipment that I could see. No one was getting paid to fight the fire that day. They were there because they
18、 chose to be, not because they had to be.How many of us would wake up early one fine Sunday morning, get dressed in hot, bulky(笨重的) clothing and risk our lives for no money and little reward? These folks do that all the time. I live in a densely populated(人口稠密的) area, and our local fire department i
19、s volunteer. Most of the time when we see these individuals, they are either on the way to or back from an emergency. We also occasionally see them collecting money on the side of the road. With either boots or helmets in hand, they ask for donations to keep them in the latest life-saving equipment.
20、 I think very few people give them the amount thats equal to, say, a basic cable(缆绳) bill.As a small business owner, I really cant give these people enough money.

24、ke volunteer firefighters for grantedCA new kind of rice, golden rice, may soon make its way into the worlds food supply by the year 2021, reports Science magazine.Golden rice was actually first developed back in the 1990s by German scientists who were looking for creative ways to reduce rates of Vi
25、tamin A deficiency(维生素A缺乏症) in human body, which continues to be a major concern throughout the developing world. Beta-carotene(胡萝卜素), which exists in some plants, can change into vitamin A in our body.In view of beta-carotenes characteristics, German scientists tried and managed to make rice filled
26、 with additional beta-carotene, which has a strong red orange color. The beta-carotene that is added to this rice is actually what conduces to its special golden color.To German scientists, developing this rice was meaningful. But as with all GM(转基因的) crops, some people warn that the golden rice may
27、 be unnecessary and even harmful, possibly having some environment consequences. Until now, those voices have prevented golden rice from being planted anywhere.However, thats about to change. Bangladesh now plans to become the first country to approve golden rice for planting. Recently, golden rice
28、is receiving a series of tests before the final approval of Bangladesh. Tests conducted by the Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI) found no new farming challenges with golden rice and no big differences in quality between the crop and the traditional varieties, with the exception that golden r
29、ice is more nutritious. Some other organizations are still doing tests about the environmental influences of the crop. If those results are also good, then golden rice will have received all the approval it needs to move forward with planting.As for the future market for the golden rice, the crop wi
30、ll need to gain the publics trust. And it remains to be seen whether golden rice will offer a better nutritional and economical choice compared to other sources of vitamin A, such as other vegetables where it occurs naturally.28.

33、.DBefore war and time destroy more of our important cultural sites, we need to save them in 3-D digital libraries. Across 163 different countries, 1,000 natural and cultural historic places make up our most precious human heritage, which UNESCO calls World Heritage Sites.We lose a little of that her
34、itage every day. War, climate change and pollution have a bad effect, as do wind and rain. The $4 million a year that UNESCO spends on preservation is not nearly enough to take care of even the four dozen sites considered at approaching risk of being lost forever. Now theres a better choice. New dig
35、ital-conservation technologies let us hold on to them, at least virtually(虚拟的), through 3-D scanning, modeling and digital storage. Such projects can be accomplished through cooperation between governments, universities, industry and non-profit organizations.To make a 3-D model, a laser(激光) scanner
36、bounces light off an object and records the results. To reproduce every corner and opening, the scanner collects overlapping(重叠的) images from all possible angles. A computer then sews them together into one large surface image and draws lines from one point to another to create a wire-frame model. H
37、igh-resolution digital cameras add color and texture. When fully put together, the models can be viewed, printed or operated.These scans do more than preserve a memory in a database. With highly accurate measurements, archaeologists(考古学家) can find hidden passages or reveal ancient engineering tricks
38、. School kids can explore places they might otherwise never see. And when a site is destroyed, the scans can even be used to reconstruct what was there. That has already happened for one World Heritage Site, the Kasubi Tombs in Uganda. Built of wood in 1882, they were destroyed by fire in 2010 and r
39、ebuilt in 2014, based in large part on 3-D models made in 2009.

How does the author show the necessity for 3-D digital libraries in the first two parag
40、raphs?A. By listing the threats to our human heritage.B. By introducing some damaged historical sites.C. By quoting some experts views on heritage protection.D. By explaining UNESCOs research on World Heritage Sites.33. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The function of a laser scanner.B. The refle
41、ction of light off an object.C. The process of making a 3-D model.D. The development of 3-D digital technology.34. What do we know about the Kasubi Tombs in Uganda?A. It is metal-framed.B.

69、hows a common phenomenon nowadays that children are the focus of families, shouldering the hope of their parents. Parents arrange everything for their children and spare no effort to pave the way for their success. As a consequence, children become so reliant on their parents that they have no indep
70、endent thought or creative ideas.Such a situation is of great concern. In my opinion, over-protection and too much care are extremely bad for childrens development. Instead of doing everything for them, parents should encourage their children to overcome difficulties and inspire them to develop by themselves. Only in this way can they grow up to be independent and become truly successful.
