6、豫地接受了它。“这种鸟类现在已经成为我的生命,我总是警觉到我在保持一个传统。传说中说,如果乌鸦离开伦敦塔,英国将落到敌人手中,我的工作就是确保这种情况不会发生!”David每天大约用四个小时的时间来护理乌鸦。他已经爱上了它们,而他紧挨在它们的旁边生活是最佳选择。“我可以在所有的时间内密切关注它们,不仅仅是在工作的时候。”起初,David的妻子Mo对生活在塔里的想法并不热衷,但David明年即将退休,她要离开时也会很伤心。“当我们透过我们的窗口向外看,我们看到历史环绕在我们身边,我们正接受它并为我们未来的记忆存储它。”1.B better2.D top3.C From4.A for5.D off

12、到骨中,他与Woody Harrelson并肩,扮演一个中量级拳击手。在影片制作过程中,Harrelson不停地抱怨整个打斗场面并不是很令人信服,所以一天,他提议他和Banderas应该进行一场真正的打斗。这位西班牙演员起初对这一想法并不热衷,但最终他还是被他的搭档说服了,他戴上他的手套,爬上了拳击台。然而,当他意识到他的对手是全心全意投入进来时,他开始后悔自己要打斗的决定。在第三轮,Harrelson狠狠地打在Banderas的脸上,以至于居然打破了Banderas的鼻子。女演员Melanie Griffith,他的妻子对他进行这样一场“傻男子气概的游戏”非常愤怒。 “她是对的”,Bande

18、、干旱,甚至更为严重的以至于世界各地的海平面上升。环保团体对政府施加压力,要求政府采取行动减少工厂和发电厂排放的二氧化碳量,攻击它的资源问题。他们都赞成把更多的资金用到研发太阳能、风能和波浪能装置上,以取代现有的发电站。然而,还有一些科学家,他们相信即使明天我们不再排放二氧化碳和其他气体到大气层中,我们也将不得不等待几百年才能得到结果。全球变暖似乎要在这里停留。l. B put2.

24、。他后来成为Waysearch的创建者和董事长,Waysearch 是一个在网上购物商场查找货物的网络搜索引擎。Ben八岁时,他所在的地方当局提供给他一台个人电脑以帮助学校工作。虽然他不能阅读使用指南,但他对计算机有一种天赋,在父亲的鼓励下,Ben很快就开始以自己的知识和能力收费每小时10英镑。15岁时,Ben成立了自己的电脑顾问公司夸德电脑,他在自己的卧室里运营(这个公司),两年之后,他离开了学校,并将所有的精力投入到公司经营当中。“此时公司已经发展壮大,我需要雇用几个员工帮助我”,Ben说,“这使我开始与更大的公司做生意。”正是他持续不断地克服困难挑战的能力使他赢得了“年度最佳青年企业家”

30、扩大。这导致了许多问题,包括严重的空气污染、长时间拥堵,以及交通事故发生概率的增大。显而易见,我们必须要有所行动,但往往说服人们改变他们的生活习惯,使他们把车留在家里是很困难的。一种可行的方法是通过增加停车收费和加强违规罚款而使人们使用汽车的成本变得更加昂贵。此外,在每天的不同时间,一些特殊路段将对司机另行收费。这个被称为“道路收费”的系统已经被一些城市所引用,它使用一种特殊的电子卡固定在汽车的挡风玻璃上。另一种处理这个问题的方法是在城市的郊区提供廉价的停车场,并严格控制进入城市中心的车辆数量。司机和乘客乘坐特殊巴士完成他们最后的旅程。当然,最重要的事情还是提供良好的公共交通。然而,要让人们放
31、弃他们汽车的舒适,公共交通必须要让人感觉可靠、便利、舒适,同时票价也要保持在一个可接受的水平。1.A of 2.D persuade3. A approach 4. B increasing 5. C bringing in 6. C breaks 7. D known8. B number 9. A fixed10. C dealing11 .A outskirts12.

37、极去做并且以最少的指导完成。在图书馆查找书籍、杂志和论文是学生的责任。教授们没有时间去解释一个大学的图书馆如何运行;他们期望学生,尤其是研究生阅尽图书馆中的文献资源。教授们愿意帮助需要帮助的学生,但是更希望学生不要太过依赖他们。在美国,教授除了上课以外还有其他职责,比如管理工作或研究工作。因此一个教授能分给学生的课外时间是有限的。如果一个学生对课堂作业有问题,他应该在办公时间找老师或者预约。1.D information2.B ideal 3.C learning 4.D with5.C responsible6.C assigned7.B minimum8.D how9.

43、t of hunger in the case of the computer2,it might well arise out of the“goalto learn more about restatlitants.人与电脑的区别是什么让人有别于电脑程序?我们的理论还没有解释的缺少的要素是什么?答案很简单:人们阅读报纸故事为了学习更多他们感兴趣的东西,而电脑不是。事实上,电脑甚至连兴趣都没有,当它们试图阅读时它们没有寻找任何特别的东西。如果一个电脑程序是理解故事模式,那它也是为了某个意图去阅读。诚然,人类的意图若是被强加到电脑身上便没有任何意义。一个人可能会读就餐指南,只是为了解决饥饿或是
44、有娱乐目的,也可能是为了寻找一个吃商务餐的好地方。电脑不会饿,也不吃商务餐。然而,这些心理和社会目标会导致一些智力或者认知目标。一个想要解决饥饿的意图会促使这样的念头产生:找到一个提供我们想要的食物的餐厅,这餐厅叫什么名,价位如何,在什么位置等。我们把这些为了获取信息或者知识的目标叫做学习目标。电脑也能有这些目标;一台电脑也许“想要”寻找餐厅的方位,并且为了做得像一个人一样去阅读一个指南。虽然这样的目标就电脑来说不是产生于饥饿,但电脑很可能从这个目标去获得更多关于餐厅的信息。1.

49、?若是周围有个总是往事情最坏处考虑的人,我们一定没有什么乐趣就像我们都知道某些人看到天空有一片云便说要下雨。但是你要是发现自己也这样想了,那就有必要针对它采取一些措施了。根据心理学家的说法,人们可以改变对生活的看法。只需一点儿努力,你将发现生活会回报给你的更多。人们说乐观主义在一定程度上是自尊和自信,但它也是对待生活的和它所给予的一种积极态度。乐观主义者更有可能开始新的项目,通常也更容易准备好去承担风险。很显然,成长经历对于你对待世界的态度的形成是至关重要的。有些人养成了过于依赖别人的习惯,一旦事情出了差错,便责备他人。然而另一方面,许多乐观主义者被教导,不要把失败当成世界末日,只需继续生活。

55、上一个小座位便可以骑了,就像骑现在的自行车一样,但双脚要使劲蹬地因为没有脚踏板。操纵方向和刹车也是不太可能的,尽管有这些问题,这个发明在当时还是吸引了许多巴黎时尚的年轻人。很快他们便举行了比赛,在街上到处骑。当骑手尝试最后冲刺时,受到一些小伤是很普遍的事情。控制那台机器是很难的,改变行驶方向的唯一方法是拉起车前身,当前轮还在空中打转时掉转车头。然而这种木制双轮车并没有流行很长时间,结合了没有弹簧、没有方向舵,以及遭遇不平整路段等问题,木制的双轮车骑起来十分不舒服。尽管如此,这种木制的“celeriferé”还是现在自行车的始祖。1. A delighted2. D enlarged3
