25、rogrammed to do many thingseven tell the difference between roses and lilacs. Of course, computers need a special kind of“nose”to do this. The electronic“nose”samples the air and send signals to a memory chip in the computer. The signals are compared to information stored in the memory chip. If the

26、signals match the information for“rose”, the computer identifies the smell.Computer noses will be able to do many things in industry. Imagine computer noses in a perfume factory. They will be able to tell if a batch of perfume being produced is incorrectly mixed. They may even be able to sniff out t

27、he good from the bad in products like packaged foods and drinks.Computer noses, however, will have to become much better to match the smelling ability of a dog. A dogs sense of smell is very good. Bloodhounds, for example, have over 200 million nerve cells that detect smells. Specially trained blood

28、hounds and other kinds of dogs are used by customs officials to find illegal drugs in suitcases. It isnt even necessary to open the suitcase. One sniff at the lock is enough for the dog. The smell has come through the tiny openings in the lock. No computer nose can do that yet.61The underlined word“

29、this”（Para.1）refers to .Aprogramming a computerBsmelling out different flowersCsending signals to the memory chipDcomparing signals to the stored information62According to the passage, people can use a computer nose to .Asniff goods in a safer wayBidentify good products in industryCavoid the wrongly

30、 mixed perfume in a factoryDsmell out the packaged foods and drinks63We can learn that bloodhounds are probably . AdetectivesBspecial dogsCcustom officialsDdrug dealers64According to the passage, a computer nose a dogs nose.Ais just as good asBis better thanCcan never be compared withDhas a long way

31、 to go to matchBCan we walk out a straight line? The question is much more difficult to answer than you think. Believe it or not, your eyes and ears help you to walk!A recent experiment held in Japan shows that it is almost impossible for people to walk exactly straight for 60 metres. Tokyo Universi

32、ty of Agriculture and Technology found 20 healthy men and asked them to walk as straight as possible to a target 60 metres away at normal speed. Each man had to wear socks soaked with red ink and walk on white paper fixed flat to the floor. The footprints revealed that all walked in a winding rather

33、 than a straight line. Researchers found that people readjust the direction of walking at regular intervals. The amount of the meandering differed from subject to subject. This suggests that none of us can walk in a strictly straight line. Rather, we meander, primarily due to a slight structural or

34、functional imbalance of our limbs（四肢）. Our body is actually semicircular, so steps by the left and right leg of a person are different. As a result, although we may start walking in a straight line, several steps afterwards we have changed direction.Eyesight helps us to correct the direction of walk

35、ing and leads us to the target. Your ears also help you walk. After turning around a lot with your eyes closed, you can hardly stand still, let alone walk straight. Its all because your ears help you balance. Inside your inner ear there is a structure contains liquids. On the sides of the organ are

36、many tiny hair-like structures that move around as the liquid flows. When you spin（旋转）the liquid inside also spins. The difference is that when you stop, the liquid continues to spin for a while. Dizziness（眩晕）is the result of these nerves in your ear. When you open your eyes, although your eyesight

37、tells you to walk in a straight line, your brain will trust your ears more, thus you walk in a curved line, or a spiral!65The experiment held in Japan indicates that .Ahealthy men have a better sense of directionBnone of the participants finished the 60 metresCthe red footbrints left by the particip

38、ants were difficult to followDall the participants walked in a winding rather than a straight line66The underlined word“meander”means .Ato follow a winding courseBto move aimlesslyCto walk straightDto adjust directions67We can hardly stand still after turning around a lot with our eyes closed becaus

39、e .Aour limbs have some difficulty in keeping balanceBour central nerves are disturbedCthe liquid inside our inner ear will go on turning after our body stops movingDour eyes determine if we can stand still68The purpose of writing the article is to .Apoint out the importance of noticing everyday sci

40、enceBgive background information about a latest studyCprove that ears and eyes help us to walkDexplain why we cant walk in strictly straight lineCYou might think that“global warming”means nothing more than a rise in the worlds temperature. But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the firs

41、t evacuation（撤离）of an island nationthe citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.During the 20th century, sea level rose 8 to 12 inches. As a result, Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water which has polluted the countrys drinking water.Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government o

42、fficial, reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with

43、 the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, and international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, which are a main cause of global warming.“By refusing to sign the agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future ge

44、nerations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years.”Laupepa told the BBC.Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries.Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable（易受影响的）to rising sea levels. Maumoon Ga

45、yoon, president of the Maldives, told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311,000 an“endangered nation.”69The text is mainly about .Arapid changes in earths temperatureBbad effects of global warmingCmoving of a country to a new placeDreasons for lowland flooding70According

46、 to scientists, the direct cause of more and fiercer storms is .Agreenhouse gas emissions in industrialized nationsBhigher surface water temperatures of the seaCcontinuous global warmingDrising sea levels71Laupepa was not satisfied with the United States because it did NOT .Aagree to reduce its gree

47、nhouse gas emissionsBsign an agreement with TuvaluCallow Tuvaluans to move to the USDbelieve the problems facing Tuvalu were realDAt one time it was the dream of many little girls to become a nurse. Today, however, America is facing its worst nurse shortage since World War I. Recently about 2,000,00

48、0 nurses are needed and 60 percent of all hospitals in the US have shortages large enough to threaten the quality of care provided. The demand for nurses spreads widely throughout the nursing field.What has become of these women in white? The answer lies in not one but several causes. One possibilit

49、y is the fact that woman have greater career options. In the past, women who chose to work outside the home had two basic choices: nursing or teaching. Today, more women than ever are in the work force, but their options have greatly increased. There are women doctors, lawyers, firefighters and poli

50、ce officers. In fact, women today are found in nearly every field of work. Nursing has been left behind, as women move on to jobs with higher pay and greater status. A woman or man in the nursing field is often looked down upon as“merely a nurse”. Teachers may be also at fault. Many high school stud

51、ents are actually being steered away from nursing, told by teachers that they are“too bright to be a nurse”.Americans are living longer than ever and requiring more medical attention. In fact, the number of elderly patients has almost doubled in the past twenty years. Obviously a larger population r

52、equires more nurses. AIDS and other diseases have caused more and more people to need nursing care. Usually fatal diseases mean long drawn-out hospital stay, that is to say, more nurses are needed to care for these patients. It is estimated that the demand for nurses will be doubled the supply in th

53、e coming ten years.72What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?AHow nurses have been looked down upon.BWhy women have chosen many different jobs.CWhat has caused nurse shortage.DHow teachers have influenced their students.73The passage tells us that high school teachers are at fault for .Anot
