Mr. Seif is the Houston Iranian American businessman who mistakenly carried a Glock handgun through security, onto a plane ， all the way from Houston to Indianapolis When he got to his destination and realized his mistake ，he

21、 alerted security officials. There was reportedly “ notheinlsge in Mr Seifs carry-on besides the weaponYet the security screeners at George Bush International，America s eigh-tbhusiest airport ，missed it entirely The scariest part of that story was that Transportation Security Administration official

22、s told reporters that this type of incident was“not uncommon. ”Now another Texas airport ，Dallas-Fort Worth ，is proving the point This week, a high levelTSA source told the local NBC affiliate that An undercover TSA agent was able to get throughsecurity at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport wit

23、h a handgun during testing of the enhanced-imaging body scanners. ”The TSA insider who blew the whistle on the test also said that none of the TSA agents who failed to spot the gun on the scanned image were disciplined The source said the agents continue to work the body scanners today This is not c

24、onfidence-inspiring If TSA screeners can et ven stop guns getting through security, why are they taking away our bottled water? Incidents like this only lend incentives to TSA critics who say the whole airport security apparatus is all enormous waste of time and money The TSAs attitude towards the r

25、eporting of these sorts of messes isn hte lpful ， eitherThey only provided NBC with a brief statement claiming that they dont reveal the resultsof secret testing for securriteya sons and arguing that advanciemda ging technology is an effective tool to detect both metallic and nonmetallic items hidde

26、n on passengers.” That much the public affairs equivalent of sticking their fingers in their ears and sayingcant hear you!It is really hard to have an accountable TSA without greater transparency about the results of secret testing Instead of leaking hints to the press that failure rates have decrea

27、sed since the last public reports， the TSA should back up its whispering with actual data If it won，tsome enterprising congressional committee should order it.“ Trust us that this works” just isnanymore. 51 Mr Seif s handgun A passed the check at the Houston airportB caused big trouble for himself i

31、criticalC tolerantD indifferentPassage TwoOnce upon a time ， staying a healthy weight was easy. To lose weight you simply had to practise the reverse of home economics spend more than you earned. Unfortunately for many, but perhaps not surprisingly, accounts, it turns out that people are rather more

32、 complicated than bank accounts.To stay a healthy weight ，you need a hormone called leptin to work properly. It sends“I full ” messages from the fat cells up to the brain, where they go, among other places, to the same pleasure centers that respond to drugs like cocaineObese people produce plenty of

33、 leptin ，but the brain doesn t seem to respond to it properly. Last year researchers at the Oregon Research Institute scanned the brains of overweight people and found their reward circuits were underactive They were eating more to try to get the enjoyment they were missing There s a lot of evidence

34、 for the fact that mo，stif not all ，of us have a set point around which our weight can vary by about seven to nine kilos ， but anything beyond that is a real struggle Making changes is hard, particularly if your body is working against you So why not ditch the traditional approaches and try some new

35、 methods ，based on the latest research，that work with your body rather than against it Several years ago researchers at the National Institute on Aging in Baltimore reported that when they gave rats very little food one day and allowed them to eat plenty the next, they showed virtually all the benef

36、its of a permanent calorie restriction diet The same goes for humans， according to Dr James Johnson How does it work? Besides forcing the body to burn fat， it may also trigger hormonal changesMost people say that the diet takes a bit of getting used to ，but is not as grinding as trying to cut back o

37、n an everyday basisOlder dieters may remember something called brown fat Unlike the undesirable white stuff ； this was a dieter s dream. Instead of storing excess energy as fat, bfarto twisnsue burned it off to keep you warm-at least in mice Brown fat fell out of favor because researchers couldn fin

38、t d much in humans but now, thanks to the New England journal of Medicine ， its back in fashion The idea is to expose people to cold temperatures They then make more brown fat and 精品文档精品文档 their weight drops 57 The last sentence in Paragraph l means that peoplending of lso suindge wrsetiaghtA seems

39、rather unreasonableB is unnecessarily complicatedC used to be limitedD can be partly justified58. According to the findings of the Oregon Research Institute , A overweight people get less pleasure from eating the same amount B overweight people enjoy eating more than the others do C people will beco

40、me overweight if they eat more than they need D people are more likely to be overweight if they produce less leptin59 The method used by the Nat ional Institute on Aging can be summarized as“ ”A no diet at allB diet on a daily basisCdiet every other dayD diet permanently60 The word “ grinding ” in t

41、he Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to A effectiveB realisticC unreliableD miserable61 It can be learned that brown fat A converts excess energy into fatB works better in warm temperaturesC burns extra energy to produce heat D accumulates easily in human bodies 62 The author s purpose iinti nwgr is

42、 to A compare the various ways of cutting caloriesB recommend new methods of losing weight C point out the misconceptions of losing weight D clarify the common myth about weight lossPassage ThreeA study by Dr David Lewis from The University of Sussex， who coined the term “ road rage ” found that mot

43、orists face a hidden mental health impact from the stresses of driving while bus travel can produce long-term health benefits For the experiment ，the heart rate and EDR (Electro-Dermal Response) of 30 commuters was measured when taking similar journeys by car and bus. The findings reveal a vast diff

44、erence in EDR, a form of biophysical measurement that indicates mental stress. The EDR results suggested that taking the Car produced significantly more stress than taking the bus ， which was 33 less stressfulsaid“ EDR can be a hidden stress it s not as visible as intensely nervous driving or audibl

45、e as road rage. This type of stress can have long- term physiological and emotional implications, ” Dr Lewis, who finds three key factors that increase the stresses of driving a car Driving in heavy traffic especially against a deadline requires a high level of attention. This requires the brain to

46、work especially hard processing a myriad of incoming information and making , often split-second, decisions.Congestion and delays can raise blood pressure and physical tension which may manifest itself as“ road rage ” , having se-treiorums hloenaglth consequences and causing drivers sometimesto take

47、 reckless and foolish decisions Driving in congested traffic now outweighs any previous benefits car-driving once gave 精品文档精品文档A sense of frustration of “ wastingo ne lsif e ”be hind the wheel of the car, unable to do anything more productive than casual conversations or listening to the radio. On a

48、 bus it is possible to fill the time more profitably by doing some work or reading. He also notes that highly trained, professional bus drivers are skilled in negotiating the challenges of the road, and the relief of trusting someone else to be in charge of the journey is a key part of what makes ta

49、king the bus less stressfulHe encourages people to get out of their cars and on to the bus for trips where it makes sense such as shopping in town or heading to a restaurant so that you dont need to battle traffic or find parking Switching simple journeys can help achieve the goal of taking a billio

50、n car journeys off the road All it will take is everyone shifting around a trip a month 63 The finding of the study mentioned in this passage is that .A cars cause more traffic accidents than busesB driving a car is more stressful than taking a busC high blood pressure is harmful to human healthDcar

54、Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?ACar driving ：a demanding but exciting j obB Traffic jams ： a source of diseases and conflictsC Road rage： a frequent occurrence on the wayDBus travel： one third less stressful than the carPassage FourThe term “ g” (general intelligence

55、)represents a measure of overall cognitive ability acrsos a variety of tests. Its not the same as IQ but it does tend to correlate. Everyone agrees thateveto run in families. But is this down to genetics or to environmental influences?, no single gene has yet been conclusively linked to intelligence

56、. Rather it appears to 精品文档精品文档 be a case of complex interactions on many levels between many different genes Identical twins have exactly the same genes, while non-identical twins share about half their genes. Another feature of twins that makes them an ideal choice for studies is that they tend to be raised in pretty much the same environment. If a particular feature is the same in identical twins, but not in non-identical twins ，then chances are its mainly genes that are
