In this way, it transfers to the next layer of rock. If the temperature is high enough, some of th

17、is rock melts and forms magma(岩浆). The magma ascends in its turn towards the earth's surface. It often remains well below the earth's surface, creating vast areas of hot rock. In such regions, there are deep cracks, which allow rainwater to descend underground. Some of the heated rainwater t

18、ravels back up to the earth's surface where it will appear as a hot spring. However, if this ascending hot water reaches a layer of impermeable（不可渗透的）rock, it remains trapped, forming a geothermal reservoir. If geothermal reservoirs are close enough to the surface, they can be reached by drillin

19、g wells. Hot water and steam shoot up the wells naturally, and can be used to produce electricity in geothermal power plants.2 A few geothermal power plants depend on dry-stem reservoirs which produce steam but little or no water. In these cases, the steam is pipe dup directly to provide the power t

21、hot water ranging in temperature from 300° to 700°Fahrenheit. This water is passed through one or two separators where released from the pressure of the underground reservoir, it "flashes" or boils into steam Again, the force of this steam provides the energy to spin the turbine

Gradually they will be reheated and can then be used again.A. Dry steam plantsB. Binary plantsC. Origin of geothermal energyD. Generatio

26、When something creates a sound wave in a room or an auditorium (礼堂)，listeners hear the sound wave directly from the source. They also hear the reflections as the sound bounces off the walls, floor, and ceiling. These are called the reflected wave or reverberant (反射的) sound , which can be heard even

27、after the sound is no longer coming from the source .The reverberation time of an auditorium is determined by the volume or interior size of the auditorium .It is also determined by how well or how poorly the walls, ceiling, floor, and contents of the room (including the people ) absorb sound. There

28、 is no ideal reverberation time .The full-sound performance of music such as Wagner operas or Mahler symphonies should have a long reverberation time. The light, rapid musical passages of Bach or Mozart need a reverberation time somewhere between.Acoustic problems often are caused by poor auditorium

29、 design .Smooth, curved (弯曲的)reflecting surfaces create large reflections. Parallel(平行的) walls reflect sound back and forth, creating a rapid ,repetitive pulsing(有节奏的跳动)effect. Large pillars (柱)and corners can cause acoustic shadows as the sound waves try to pass around the object . Some of these pr

30、oblems can be solved by using absorbers and reflectors to change the reverberation time of a room .For example , hanging large reflectors , called clouds , over the performers will allow some sound frequencies to reflect and others to pass yo achieve a pleasing mixture of sound.31. This Passage is m

34、he is the tallest player in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and holds the record as the most towering Olympian ever to compete in the Games.But what really stands out about the giant center is his celebrity(名气). Few, if any, Chinese athletes are as well-known as Yao around the world. Peopl

35、e across the globe are fascinated with Yao, not only for his basketball prowess(杰出的才能)also for being a symbol of international commerce.When Yao joined the Houston Rockets as the No.1 pick in the 2002 NBA draft(选抜)， he was the first international player ever to be selected first. His assets on the c

36、ourt are clear enoughno NBA player of his size has ever possessed his mobility, so he is a handful(难对付的人)for opponents on either end of the court. But what makes Yao invaluable to the Rockets organization is his role as a global citizen and as a bridge to millions of potential basketball fans in Chi

37、na.When it was announced in February that Yao would miss the rest of the NBA season and possibly the Olympics with a stress fracture(骨折)in his left foot, a collective shudder(震动)spread across China. After considerable debate and discussion, Yao opted to get his foot surgically treated in an operatio

38、n that placed several tiny screws across the bone, to offer his overburdened foot more support. The surgery was a success, and though the estimated four-month recovery period will leave him little time to prepare with Team China, Yao has vowed to be ready for the Beijing Olympics.Yao wrapped up a 10

39、-day trip to China, where he underwent a series of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments, hoping to accelerate his recovery process Western experts are generally skeptical of TCM's benefits although new research from the University of Rochester suggests that a certain compound derived fr

40、om shellfish may indeed stimulate bone repair."There is no reason to dismiss TCM," Yao told a press conference in Beijing." It's been used in our country for thousands of years. I don't think that it's short on science."36.The word "towering" in Paragraph 1

However，windows are not something people typically associate with being a cutting

44、 edge1 technology. Researchers are now working on new technologies that enable a window to quickly change from clear to dark and anywhere in between with a flip of a switch.“It took us a long time to figure out what a window really is,” says Claes Granqvist. Hes a professor of solid-state physics at

45、 Uppsala University in Sweden. “Its contact with the outside world. You have to have visual contact with the surrounding world to feel well.” So, windows and natural light are important for improving the way people feel when theyre stuck indoors.Yet，windows are the weak link in a building when it co

46、mes to energy and temperature control. In the winter，cold air leaks in. When its hot and sunny，sunlight streams in. All of this sunlight carries lots of heat and energy. And all of this extra heat forces people to turn on their air conditioners. Producing blasts of cold air，which can feel so refresh

47、ing(使人清新的)，actually suck up enormous amounts of electricity in buildings around the world.Windows have been a major focus of energy research for a long time. Over the years，scientists have come up with a variety of strategies for coating，glazing(用玻璃覆盖)，and layering windows to make them more energy e

48、fficient. Smart windows go a step further. They use chromogenic(发色的) technologies which involve changes of color.Electrochromic(电致色的) windows use electricity to change color. For example，a sheet of glass coated with thin layers of chemical compound such as tungsten oxide(氧化钨) works a bit like a batt

49、ery. Tungsten oxide is clear when an electric charge is applied and dark when the charge is removed，that is，when the amount of voltage(电压) is decreased，the window darkens until its completely dark after all electricity is taken away. So applying a voltage determines whether the window looks clear or

50、 dark.One important feature that makes a smart window so smart is that it has a sort of “memory.” All it takes is a small jolt of voltage to turn the window from one state to the other. Then，it stays that way. Transitions take anywhere from 10 seconds to a few minutes，depending on the size of the wi

51、ndow. The development of smart windows could mean that massive air conditioning systems may no longer need.“In the future,” Granqvist says,“our buildings may look different.”41. Which of the following of values of windows is NOT mentioned?A. They let light in to brighten the house.B. They

Some psychologists say that this nighttime activity of the mind has no special meaning. Others, however, think that dreams are an important part of our lives. In fact, many

56、 experts believe that dreams can tell us about a persons mind and emotions.Before modem times, many people thought that dreams contained messages from God. _E_(46) The Austrian psychologist, Sigmund Freud, was probably the first person to study dreams scientifically. In his famous book, The interpre

57、tation of Dreams ( 1900 ), Freud wrote that dreams are an expressions of a persons wishes. He believed that dreams allow people to express the feelings, thoughts, and fears that they are afraid to express in real life.The Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung was once a student of Freud'' s. Jung, ho

58、wever, had a different idea about dreams. Jung believed that the purpose of a dream was to communicate a message to the dreamer. _F_(47) For example, people who dream about falling may learn that they have too high an opinion of themselves. On the other hand, people who dream about being heroes may learn that they think too little of themselves. Modem-day psychologists c
