She and her colleagues invited 51 young men into the lab for 3 hours of tests. They showed each man 180 f

21、ood items on a computer. Each time, they asked the men to judge how healthy, tasty and appealing the food was.Then the researchers stressed out 29 of the men. They did this by asking each to put one hand in ice water for three minutes. If the water was too unpleasant, the volunteers could remove the

22、ir hands, but must continue looking into a video camera. The men were also encouraged to put their hands back into the cold water. All the while, a researcher watched and videotaped the ordeal (考验). Another 22 men held one hand in warm water. They were not videotaped.Afterward, the researchers showe

23、d each man a series of two food items. They did this 210 times. And before making choices, the men were told to choose the healthier of the two items. When the testing was over, the scientists gave the volunteers a snack. Each man got one of the items he had said that he preferred. Despite being coa

24、ched to choose healthy foods, the stressed men proved more likely to pick the less healthy.The researchers also performed brain scans of the volunteers. It showed what part of the brain was active as they made their choices. “Our findings indicate that stress affects the decision making,” Maiers tea

It has a nice ring to it. Doesnt it? If you think so, youre not alone, be

29、cause energy independence has been the dream of American president for decades, and never more so than in the past few years, when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession(经济衰退). “Energy independence” and its rhetorical (修辞的) companion “energy s

30、ecurity” are, however, slippery concepts that are rarely though through. What is it we want independence from, exactly? Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil. But there are reasons that we buy all that old from elsewhere. The first reason is that we need i

31、t to keep our economy running. Yes, there is a trickle（涓涓细流）of biofuel（生物燃料）available, and more may become available, but most biofuels cause economic waste and environmental destruction. Second, Americans have basically decided that they dont really want to produce all their own oil. They value the

32、 environmental quality they preserve over their oil imports from abroad. Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to oil exploration and production in the name of environmental protection.

33、tion in order to cut back imports? Third, there are benefits to trade.

And although you dont read about this much, the United States is also a large exporter of oil products

34、, selling about 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries. There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and, in fact, relies on that steady flow to maintain its economy. When that flow is interrupted, we feel the pain in short supplies and hi

35、gher prices, At the same time, we derive massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world.1、What does the author say about energy independence for America?AIt sounds very attractive. C It will bring oil prices do

36、wn.BIt ensures national security. DIt has long been everyones dream.2、What does the author think of biofuels?AThey keep Americas economy running healthily.BThey prove to be a good alternative to petroleum.CThey do not provide a sustainable energy supply.DThey cause serious damage to the environment.

37、3、Why does America rely heavily on oil imports?AIt wants to expand its storage of crude oil.BIts own oil reserves are quickly running out.CIt wants to keep its own environment undamaged.DIts own oil production falls short of demand.4、What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?ATo justify Ame

38、ricas dependence on oil imports.BTo arouse Americans awareness of the energy crisis.CTo stress the importance of energy conservation.DTo explain the increase of international oil trade.24（8分）A day in the life of 18-year-old David Lanster is full if typical teenage stuff: school, baseball practice an

40、parents home. Their meals have 17 courses and are all made by them. Their guests used to give them gifts to thank them until the pair decided to do something nice for charity（慈善）. “We got some really great Miami Heat tickets, a nice watch, and many kitchen gadgets（小器具）,” Lanster said. “But we wanted

41、 to make this something positive for people other than us.”Lanster and Moran focused on Common Threads, a charity that aims to teach kids in poor communities to cook and make healthy eating choices. The young cooks ask their guests to give however much they want as payment for their meals. It all go

42、es to Common Threads because Lansters parents cover their food costs. After their last 12-person event, Lanster and Moran gave $1,600 to the charity.Now, theyre taking their show out of the kitchen and on the road. They have started to organize private dinner parties with a similar model: the host p

43、ays for the ingredients, and the guests make a donation to a charity of their choice.Without formal training, Lanster said he had been interested in cooking since he helped his mom in the kitchen when he was very young. He learned how to cook by reading cookbooks and watching TV programs. Outside th

44、e kitchen, the two are busy preparing their college applications.

47、a robot after a major food delivery company announced plans to use automated vehicles to transport meals. Europes biggest online takeaway food company Just Eat has partnered with Starship Technologies to deliver food with robots on the streets of London later this month. “Nobody has ever done delive

48、ries with land-based robots,” said Allan Martinson, the chief operating officer of Starship.The robot courier can travel up to 4 miles per hour for about 10 miles. It uses a GPS signal and nine cameras to navigate (确定方向). Instead of a person arriving at their door, customers could find themselves re

49、ceiving a notification on their phone that says a robot is on its way and a code to unlock the automated courier. “Put the code in, the robot opens up, and theres your food,” said David Buttress, chief manager of Just Eat.The robot, which has so far been tested in Greenwich, Milton Keynes and Glasto

50、nbury, costs 1 to transport within 3 miles, compared with the 3 to 6 it costs for a human courier. To date 30 robots have driven nearly 5,000 miles without getting into an accident or finding themselves picked on by passers-by. They have driven in more than 40 cities around the world, including Lond

51、on and Tallinn, Estonia.An initial worry was how the public would react to robots. But Martinson said the public has been calm when passing the delivery machine on the streets. “The most surprising reaction has been the lack of reaction,” said Martinson.Another significant fear was that people would

52、 disrupt (扰乱) the robots, or try to steal them and their contents. To prevent this, the robot is fitted with nine cameras, two way audio, and movement sensors that send a warning if it is lifted off the ground. And it opens only with a passcode provided to the customer via a notification. “Its much

53、easier to shoplift than it is to steal a robot,” said Martinson.1、Which of the following can replace the underlined word “courier” in Paragraph 2?AdelivererBcollectorCproviderDguide2、According to the text, the Starship robot _.Aopens up upon hearing the codeBtravels 10 miles per hour at mostCfinds i
