But unlike human, plants can have their temperature taken from 3, 000 feet away - straight up. A decade ago, adopting the infrared （红外线）scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide （杀虫剂）spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that dont have pest （害虫）problems.Even better, Paleys Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3, 000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a color - coded map showing where plants were running“ fevers”. Farmers could then spot - spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paleys company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long - term backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States, ” says George Oerther of Texas A & M. Ray Jackson , who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade. But only ff Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.36. Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are_.A. sprayed with pesticidesB. facing an infrared scannerC. in poor physical conditionD. exposed to excessive sun rays37. In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to_.A. estimate the damage to the cropsB. measure the size of the affected areaC. draw a color -coded mapD. locate the problem area38. Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by_.A. resorting to spot - sprayingB. consulting infrared scanning expertsC. transforming poisoned rainD. detecting crop problems at an early stage39. The application of infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with some difficulties_.,A. the lack of official supportB. its high costC. the lack of financial supportD. its failure to help increase production40. Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of_.A. the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produceB. growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on cropsC. the forceful promotion by the Department of AgricultureD. full support from agricultural experts四. 改错Dear Abby,How are you?

At the start they only fight with their hands, but soon they begin 17 one another over the heads with chairs. It goes on until one of the men crashes (猛撞) through a window, and 18 thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead! Of course, he isnt really 19 . With any luck he isnt even hurt. Why? 20 the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast-moving trains, who crash cars or even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for 21 . These men are 22 “stuntmen” (特技演员). That is to 23 , they perform “tricks”.There are two sides to their work. They 24 do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall 25 a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground 26 on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (垫子). 27 , when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the “glass” is made of 28 . Although their work depends on tricks of this kind, it calls for a 29 degree of skill and training. Often a stuntmans success depends on exact 30 . For example, when he is “blown up” in a battle screen, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment. Naturally stuntmen are 31 paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously hurt, and sometimes 32 . A Norwegian stuntmen, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) 33 to open, and he was killed.

Participants（参加者）are invited to log on to the laugh lab website, give a few personal details, tell their favourite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally discover the worlds funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose. The researches want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh.This is a subject that has long interested psychologists（心理学家）and philosophers（哲学家）. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves. By December 2001 over 10, 000 jokes had been submitted. This gave the scientists enough evidence （证据）to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humour, for instance.“Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humour, ”said Dr.Wiseman. “Males use humour to appear superior（优越）to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer word play. ”Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humour. the British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humour”. But the French like their jokes short and sharp: “Youre a high priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for $500?” “Yes. Whats the second question?”The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humour. But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality. Perhaps that proves the point. Is this joke funny? I dont know, but lets say yes, just to be safe.Dr Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Perhaps this is relief. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny stuff to us.36.
