Tw

11、o of the gases are accumulating at a rate that is causing concern among researchers.Worries over the growing ozone hole have seen the production of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases restricted since the mid 1980s. But the precise origin of these new, similar substances remains a mystery.Lying in the at

12、mosphere, the ozone layer plays a critical role in blocking harmful UV rays, which cause cancers in humans and reproductive problems in animals.Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey were the first to discover a huge “hole” in the ozone over Antarctica in 1985. The evidence quickly pointed to

13、CFC gases, which were invented in the 1920s, and were widely used in refrigeration. Extraordinarily, global action was rapidly agreed to deal with CFCs and the Montreal Protocol to limit these substances came into being in 1987. A total global ban on production came into force in 2010.Now, the newly

14、 discovered four new gases can destroy ozone and are getting into the atmosphere from as yet unidentified sources. Three of the gases are CFCs and one is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC), which can also damage ozone.The research has shown that four gases were not around in the atmosphere at all unti

15、l the 1960s, which suggests they are man-made. The scientists discovered the gases by analyzing polar snow pack. Air from this snow is a natural archive of what was in the atmosphere up to 100 years ago. There searchers also looked at modern air samples, collected at remote Cape Grim in Tasmania.The

16、y estimate that about 74,000 tonnes of these gases have been released into the atmosphere. Two of the gases are accumulating at significant rates. However, they dont know where the new gases are being released from and this should be investigated. Possible sources include chemicals for insecticide (

17、杀虫剂)production and solvents (溶液) for cleaning electronic components. The three CFCs are being destroyed very slowly in :the atmosphereso even if emissions (散发)were to stop immediately, they will still be around for many decades to come.Of the four species identified, CFC-113a seems the most worrying

18、 as there is a very small but growing emission source somewhere, maybe from agricultural insecticides. We should find it and take it out of production.1、What do we know about the newly discovered gases?ASome are surely produced by the development of agriculture.BThe CFCs will have a long impact once

19、 they are released.CThey gather together in the atmosphere at a medium speed.DTheir amounts are not large enough to cause damage to us.2、The underlined word “archive” in Paragraph 6 is closest to the meaning of “ ”.AstateBresourceCphenomenonDstoreroom3、What will the scientists probably attempt to do

20、 about the gases next?AFind out what can replace things like insecticides and put them into use.BFind out how they destroy ozone and get rid of those in the atmosphere.CFind out where they are exactly from and stop them from being released.DFind out if HCFC is more harmful than CFCs and take proper

21、measures.22（8分）I drove a taxi for extra money east of Toronto thirty years ago. Each time a taxi drove up to the front of the Greenwood Racetrack, a group of local kids would run along the sidewalk angling for position by the passenger door. One lucky kid, or rather, the most aggressive one, would o

22、pen the passenger door and say “Good luck, Mister!” The man getting out of the cab would vaguely say thanks and throw the kid a quarter.

23、e never made it but never gave up. One day, his chance arrived. As I was pulling up to the sidewalk, all the kids were pushing for a cab just ahead of mine.

24、armly saying, “Good luck, Mister!”But the man neither said thanks nor flipped him a quarter. He pushed him aside so hard that the boy fell on the sidewalk. I knew it hurt him badly. I got out in less than 10 seconds, but the man was gone in the crowd. So I looked for the kid. I decided to give him $

25、20 for the effort. By the time I spotted him he was far up ahead, walking away in the opposite direction through the crowd and his head hanging down. When I got the cab turned around I lost sight of him. I never saw him again. Id like to find him one day and tell him that if only he had stuck around

36、）Training the BrainPeople who can accomplish unbelievable tasks, such as memorizing thousands of random numbers in under an hour, state that they just have normal brains. Some memory superstars compete in Olympic-like World Memory Championships. These mental athletes, or MAs for short, can memorize

37、names of dozens of strangers in a few minutes or any poem handed them. Ed Cooke, a 24-year-old MA, explains they see themselves as participants rescuing the long-lost art of memory training. These techniques existed not to recall useless information, but to cut into the brain basic text and ideas.A

38、study in the journal Nature examined eight people who finished near the top of the World Memory Championships. The scientists examined whether their brains were fundamentally different from everyone elses or whether they were simply making better use of memorizing abilities we all possess. They put

39、the MAs and control subjects into brain scanners and had them memorize numbers and photographs. The result surprised everyone. The brains of the MAs and those of the control subjects were indistinguishable. On every test, the MAs scored in the normal range. However, when the scientists examined what

40、 part of the brain was used during a memory activity, they found the MAs relied more heavily on areas in the brain involved in spatial memory.MAs offer an explanation: anything can be fixed upon our memories and kept in order by constructing a building in the imagination and filling it with pictures

41、 of what needs to be recalled. Dating back to the fifth century, the building is called a memory palace. Even as late as the fourteenth century, when there were copies of any text, scholars needed to remember what was read to them. Reading to remember requires a different technique than speed readin

42、g. If something is made memorable, it has to be repeated. Until relatively recently, people read only a few books intensively (细致地) again and again, usually aloud. Today we read extensively, usually only once and without continuous focus.So the great difference is the ability to create impressive pi

43、ctures in mind and to do it quickly. Using memory palaces, MAs create memorized pictures. For example, recombine the pictures to form unforgettable scenes such as the ways through a town. One competitor used his own body parts to help him memorize a 57,000-word dictionary.Anyone who wishes to train

44、the mind needs first to create fantastical palaces in the imagination. Then they should cut each building into cubbyholes for memories. In a short amount of time, they will notice improvement with remembering things. To keep the skill sharp, MAs deliberately empty their palaces after competitions, s

45、o they can reuse them and they recommend that beginners do the same.1、We can learn from Paragraph 2 that a mental athlete _.Aowns a brain that is larger in sizeBshows a gift in mental ability testsCuses the memorizing technique betterDdepends less on the areas that control spatial memory2、Why does t
