17、.Jamaal, a high school teacher who grew up in southern Oregon of the USA, revealed that most people he meets are always surprised when they discover hes white. He said that one of the most common responses to his name is “I never wouldve guessed your name was Jamaal”. In a blog post he aired his tho

18、ughts on this, writing: Really, are you frequently good at guessing peoples names?” Another reaction to his name, he said, is you dont look like a Jamaal, to which he asked in response, And how exactly does one look like a name?”He wrote in the blog that some people, after meeting him, say “I though

19、t youd beand then pause with “a sudden realization they are on the verge of sounding racist, before finding a word such as “tailed or older” to end the sentence with.And his name once appeared to get him selected for a random security check on a trip to London in 2002, as the others picked out by of

20、ficials were called Muhammad, Abdul and Tariq. He also explained that waitresses and waiters usually hand his credit card back to a black person at his table when hes dining out.His name, which means “beauty in Arabic, landed him his teaching job in Iowa, though. Jamaal said, “The principal who had

21、hired me admitted that I was lucky to have gotten the job. They had not been planning to take another student-teacher when my application showed up. But, as they scanned through it and saw a Jamaal who plays basketball and counts Muhammad Ali among his heroes, they thought they could use a little di

25、eam fuel. In practice, things are trickier. Storing meaningful quantities of hydrogen gas requires compressing (压缩) it several hundred times. Transforming it into liquid state is another option, but one that requires cooling the stuff to -253. Either process requires rugged tanks. Over time, hydroge

26、n gas can pass slowly into metals, weakening them and potentially causing cracks. Tanks must be built from special materials designed to resist this breakdown.Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute led by Marcus Vogt, think that supplying hydrogen as goop (糊状) offers a way around some of its limita

27、tions. They have been experimenting with a chemical compound that can be pumped into a container and then persuaded to give off its hydrogen on demand.Their invention, which they nickname “powerpaste”, looks like toothpaste. Its main ingredient is magnesium hydride, a compound that when introduced t

28、o water, reacts with it to form hydrogen and magnesium hydroxide. The escaped hydrogen can then be redirected into a fuel cell, where it reacts with oxygen from the air to generate electric power. The magnesium hydroxide waste is emptied from the reactor automatically.Dr Vogts scheme offers several

29、advantages over batteries, petrol and more conventional ways of handling hydrogen. One is the storage of energy than either batteries or petrol can manage. A second is ease of refilling, which is simply a matter of swapping an empty container of paste for a full one, and topping up the water, which

30、is stored in a separate tank. A third advantage is that, unlike a battery, the paste does not gradually lose its stored energy if it is left on the shelf. Moreover, the paste itself is harmless, as are the reactions by-products.But there are still more to work through. Magnesium hydride reacts only

31、slowly with water. To overcome this, Dr Vogt and his team have found a chemical additive that greatly accelerates the reaction. They have also found a way to ensure that the reaction can be controlled precisely enough to supply only as much hydrogen as is needed at any given moment.28Which of the fo

32、llowing best explains “rugged” underlined in paragraph 1?ACreative.BFragile.CTough.DEnormous.29What can we know about the invention according to paragraph 3?AMagnesium hydride mixed with water releases hydrogen.BSeveral chemical reactions occur in the same tank.CWater and electricity are necessary i

34、rogen GoopD“Toothpaste” in Your TankDThe Undergoing Welfare ReformWhile still in its early stages, welfare reform has already been judged a great success in many states - at least in getting people off welfare. Its estimated that more than 2 million people have left the rolls since 1994.In the past

35、four years, welfare rolls in Athens County have been cut in half. But 70 percent of the people who left in the past two years took jobs that paid less than $6 an hour. The result: The Athens County poverty rate still remains at more than 30 percent - twice the national average. For advocates for the

36、 poor, thats an indication that much more needs to be done.More people are getting jobs, but its not making their lives any better, says Kathy Lairn, a policy analyst at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in Washington.A center analysis of US Census data nationwide found that last year, a gr

37、eater percentage of single, female-headed households were earning money on their own, but that average income for these households actually went down.But for many, the fact that poor people are able to support themselves almost as well without government aid as they did with it is in itself a huge v

38、ictory.Welfare was a poison. It was a toxin that was poisoning the family, says Robert Rector, a welfare-reform policy analyst. The reform is changing the moral climate in low-income communities. Its beginning to rebuild the work ethic, which is much more important.Mr. Rector and others argued that

39、once the habit of dependency is cracked, then the country can make other policy changes aimed at improving living standards.32Why dont people enjoy their lives better when they get jobs?ABecause they are used to relying on welfare to make livings.BBecause the cost of living is higher than before.CBe
