massachusetts institute of technology(mit)in the us，it might be leavesbut artificial(人造的)ones.natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy. it is known as photosynthesis(光合作用)now researchers have found a way to imitate this seemingly simple process.the artificial leaf developed by daniel nocera and his colleagues at mit can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts(催化剂)similar to natural leaves，it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. the hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell，which uses those two materials to produce electricity，located either on top of a house or beside the house.though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card，scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries.“ one can imagine villages in india and africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology，”said nocera at a conference of the american chemical society.the artificial leaf is not a new idea. the first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use. the new leaf，by contrast，is made of cheap materials，easy to use and highly stable. in laboratory studies，nocera showed that an artificial leaf prototype(原型)could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.the wonderful improvements come from noceras recent discovery of several powerful，new and inexpensive catalysts. these catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. right now，the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. besides，the device can run in whatever water is available；that is，it doesnt need pure water. this is important for some countries that dont have access to pure water.with the goal to “make each home its own power station” and “give energy to the poor”，scientists believe that the new technology could be widely used in developing countries，especially in india and rural china.56which of the following orders correctly shows how the artificial leaf is used to produce electricity?aartificial leaves split water into hydrogen and oxygenbthe hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in a fuel cellcthe artificial leaves are put in waterdthe fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricityac，b，a，d bc，a，b，dcb，c，a，d dc，a，d，b57the purpose of the scientists at mit in developing the new artificial leaf is to_.abuild up more power stations in the worldbprovide cheaper energy for developing countriescoffer people in developing countries access to pure waterdgain a deeper understanding of the photosynthesis process58the main idea of this passage is _.aan introduction to the history of artificial leavesban invention copying photosynthesiscgiving energy to the poorda mixture of water power and solar energy59the underlined word “imitate” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by “_”aproduce bhold cprevent dcopybanimals seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and they do not eat more than their bodies needit has been demonstrated（证明）that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time, prefer water with vitamins to water without vitamins even though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water bottleswhen a fragrant（香的）flavor（作料）was added to the vitamin-enriched water, the rats did seem to prefer it and kept drinking it ,even after the vitamins were switched to the clear waterin time, however, they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins werein a classic experiment, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a cafeteria（自助） feeding arrangement, with a wide selection of baby food before themthey were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested inwe are told that at first they showed some unusual eating patterns, but that over a period of time they managed to select well-balanced dietso, in selecting food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on whats best for themapparently, there is a kind of “body wisdom”, which humans soon losemost of us do not eat as wisely as we couldmany of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by long-established habitssome people eat fox, dog and blackbirds, while we eat cows and pigsso what people eat and how much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on around them60in the experiment on rats, a fragrant flavor was added to the rats drinking water to _ . a. encourage rats to drink vitamins-enriched water b. find out rats preference in flavor c. test whether rats know which drink is good for them d. demonstrate the vitamins are tasteless61according to the passage ,adults eating habits differ from those of babies because_aadults know better than babies what kind of food are good for their healthbadults usually cannot resist the temptation of various delicious foodscadults eating habits are closely related to the social and cultural customsdadults have more choices of food than babies in eating patterns62the author implied in the passage that most of us_aeat a balanced diet bchoose the food that is of nutritionchave the habits influenced by the surroundings dlike to eat the food with a fragrant flavor63as far as their eating habits are concerned, babies and rats are similar in that_aboth have the wisdom to choose a balanced dietbboth prefer flavored food and drinkcboth have the same eating patternsdboth develop a taste for the same kinds of flavors cwhen your pet meets your infant(婴儿)，it might not be love at first sniff. when jennifer brought her baby home from the hospital, her cherished dogs had very different reactions. her boxer, sonya, was immediately gentle and protective. but tiger, the pomeranian, was less welcoming. “if any diapers(尿布)or toys were on the floor, he peed on them,” says the greenbrier, mom. in the eyes of a pet, theres a new star in home whos stealing his spotlight. even the gentlest animal will probably act up if he doesnt get his usual attention. these simple steps will help your pet adjust and keep your baby safe. introduce them with careyour newborn and pers first encounter can set the tone for their relationship. to make it as smooth as possible, try this trick from caryn ruiz：“before we left the hospital, my husband took blankets home to our dog, daisy, so shed know our newborn devons smell.” when you get home, have your husband carry the baby so you can greet your pet without worrying about her jumping on you. a cat will likely walk away at first, while a dog probably wants to investigate right away.to introduce your baby, get down on your pets level and let her have a hello sniff. dont panic and pull your baby away unless your pet is barking or hissing, because itll send the message that the baby is a threat. learn the safety basicsno matter how smoothly the introduction goes, there are certain safety rules you should follow. never leave your baby alone with the pet. even the gentlest animal can react unpredictably. your babys crying could frighten your cat, or your dog could suddenly become territorial. consider setting up baby gates to limit your pets access. to keep your cat from jumping into the bassinet(有篷盖的摇篮), try putting mosquito netting over the top. cats hate sticky paws, so keep the crib(有栏杆的婴儿床)and changing table off-limits by lining the edges with sticky strips made for furniture. you can also train your dog to sleep in a crate(大木箱).64. at the beginning of the passage, the author uses the stories to_.aillustrate possible reactions when pets meet a newborn babybshow that pets dont like a newborn babycprove how friendly a pet is when it meets a newborn babydintroduce how terrible the pets are when a mother gets a baby home65. who is sonya mentioned in the 1 st paragraph?ajennifers dog. bjennifers baby.cjennifers husband. da pet expert.66. what can we infer from the passage?acats are more welcoming than dogs when they meet a newborn baby.byou must show your baby to your pet dog when it is barking.cyou should never keep a baby together with your pet.dthe first introduction of your newborn baby to your pet is important.67.according to the passage, to keep your baby safe, you should
