16、of television, it is very much a public affair. Hundreds of people gather in Hollywood to see the Oscars presented to outstanding(杰出的) actors, and others involved(参与) in the motion picture industry. Millions more watch on television.It all began on May 16, 1929, when 270 men and women sat down to di

17、nner at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. There was no secret about the winners. The names of the winners had been known for months. Janet Gaynor, for example, had won as Best Actress. Douglas Fairbanks presented her with the famous gold statue(塑像). The little statue was not then called Oscar. Like a n

18、ew actor, Oscar was unknown. About six years later, it somehow got that renowned name. A number of explanations have been offered for its origin(由来), but nobody knows the true story for certain.Nowadays the results of the Oscar voting are kept secret. Only two people know the winners before the name

19、s are announced at the ceremony. The counting of votes is not done by one group of people but by different groups.

23、red to be a lover to my husband. I was falling asleep by 8 oclock most evenings. When I did go out for an evening. my husband was ashamed of me. And he said so to my face. When I walked, my thighs scrape together. I couldnt even cross my legs. I was fat. Not just“overweight”Fat. I was 555” tall and

24、weighed 205 pounds.About 18 months ago, my husband Darrell left a “Dear Leslie”letter on my bed and asked for divorce.I went to a psychologist for advice. I knew that my weight was the source of my troubles. But Id tried 14 different diets, at which I failed one by one.He listened carefully and reco

25、mmended an entirely different program. This was not a “diet.”It was a unique new weight-loss program researched by a team of specialists who help to treat the severely fat. I entered the program. Within the first four days, I lost only three pounds. So I was disappointed. But during the three weeks

26、that followed, my weight began to drop from 205 pounds to 124 pounds. To me it was a miracle.The reason the program worked was simple. I was always eating. I could eat six times every day. I could snack in the afternoon. Snack before dinner. I could even have snack at night while watching TV.How can

27、 you eat so much and still lose weight?The secret is in the combination of foods, approved by the research team, which you eat in each 24 hour period.

28、 the right proportion（比例）thus a complete 24-hour fat-reduction cycle is formed.Without hunger, without nervousness, it lets you lose pounds so easily. Once you lose the weight, youll keep it off.

CBorn in the little village of Kirkaldy, near Edinburgh, Scotland, Adam Smith (17231790) was kidnapped when he was four years old by gypsies(吉普赛人) who soon abandoned（抛弃）him.

32、He would have made a very poor gypsy because he later revealed(揭露，展现) himself to be a towering figure in social economics. Gentle and absent-minded, Smith was impressed by what he called “the progress of opulence”，that is, the increasing of wealth he observed around him. He attributed this to the pr

33、oductive aspects of natural selfishness, observing that self-seeking individuals are often “led by an invisible hand without knowing it, without intending it, to advance the interest of society”. Let individual interest run free, and it would benefit the interest of all, he claimed. Government const

34、raint(限制) prevented the development of beneficial private companies. Published in the same year as the Declaration of Independence, The Wealth of Nations (1776) explained how the invisible hand of competition guided an economic system based on self-interest. On the national level as on the internati

35、onal, competition and the acquisitive(想获得的) drive set free would cause wealth to grow. But the essence(精髓) of material success lay in the division of labor, which leads to rising production. Written in a pre-industrial age, The Wealth of Nations opens with a famous passage describing a pin factory i

36、n which ten persons, by specializing in a variety of tasks, turn out 48000 pins a day, much more than the few that each could have produced alone.63. The word “opulence”(Lines 4 5, Para. 1) moat probably means _. A. wealthB. povertyC. growthD. failure64. According to Adam Smith, if let free, individ

37、ual interest would_.A. benefit the whole societyB. ruin the moral values of the peopleC. destroy the national economyD. only benefit the rich65. Too much government interference would _.A. promote the development of companiesB. encourage more people to establish new firmsC. hinder the development of

38、 beneficial private companiesD. increase the wealth of the nation66.The essence of material success, according to Adam Smith, consisted in _.A. division of laborB. the invisible handC. the acquisitive driveD. the self-interestCThe local bus network gives access to most of the attractions of Nottingh

The

47、 atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. Light gets through, and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment endurable（可忍受的）. Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the

48、sun are screened(遮蔽) off. As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the wall of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage.Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation is calle

49、d “rem”. Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1 rem without being damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage - a person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of hi

50、s or her sex organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed(畸形的) children or even grandchildren . Missions（使命） of the Apollo fights have had to cross belts of high radiation and, during the outward and return journeys, the Apollo crew accumulated a large amount of

51、 rems. So far, no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in a space laboratory . Drugs might help to dec

52、rease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones have been found so far.71.

53、essary for human survivalD. it screens off the falling meteors72. We know from the passage that _.A. exposure to even tiny amounts of radiation is fatalB. the effect of exposure to radiation is slaw in comingC. radiation is avoidable in space explorationD. astronauts in space suits neednt worry abou

54、t radiation damage73. The harm radiation has done to the Apollo crew members _.A. is not important B. is enormousC. seems overestimated D. remains unknown74.
