It is 90% energy self-sufficient, with full temperature controls and wastewater recycling.SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE, VORARLBERG For more than a decade, the small western province of Vorarlberg in Austria has gained a reputation for daring and inn

22、ovative architecture. With the use of locally sourced lumber (木材) and other renewable resources, the region has assembled a remarkable collection of contemporary, environmentally sound shops, homes, farmhouses, and public buildings that are masterpieces of progressive design. BMW WORLD IN MUNICH Bav

24、rience. Located near BMW Headquarters, the buildings roof is anchored by a swirled double cone of glass and steel.

Three centuries later, misguided

28、ideas about child-raising are still popular. Many parents fear that their children will die unless ceaselessly watched. In America the law can be equally paranoid (偏执的). In South Carolina this month Debra Harrell was jailed for letting her 9-year-old daughter play in a park unsupervised (无人监督的). Her

29、 severe punishment reflects the rich worlds worry about parenting. By most objective measures, modern parents are far more conscientious (认真的) than previous generations. Dads are more hands-on than their fathers were, and working mothers spend more time nurturing their children than the housewives o

30、f the 1960s did. However, there are two problems in this picture, connected to class. One is at the lower end. Even if poor parents spend more time with their children than they once did, they spend less than rich parents do. America is a laggard here: its government spends abundantly on school-age

31、kids but much less than other rich countries on the first two or three years of life. If America did more to help poor parents with young children, it would have huge returns. The second one, occurs at the other end of the income scale, and may even apply to otherwise rational (理性的) Economist reader

32、s: well-educated, rich parents try to do too much. Safety is part of itthey fear that if they are not constantly watching their children may break their necks, which is the least rational. Despite the impression you get from watching crime dramas, children in rich countries are safe, so long as they

33、 look both ways before crossing the road. The other popular parental fearthat your children might not get into an Ivy League collegeis more rational. Academic success matters more than ever before. But beyond a certain point, parenting makes less difference than many parents imagine. Studies in Minn

34、esota and Sweden, for example, found that identical twins grew up equally intelligent whether they were raised together or apart. A study in Colorado found that children that adopted and raised by brainy parents ended up no brainier than those adopted by average parents. This doesnt mean that parent

35、ing is irrelevant. The families who adopt children are carefully screened, so they tend to be warm, capable and middle-class. But the twin and adoption studies indicate that any child given a loving home and adequate stimulation is likely to fulfill her potential. Put another way, better-off parents

36、 can afford to relax a bit. And if you are less stressed, your children will appreciate it, even if you still make them eat their fruit and vegetables.58. Which of the following statements is NOT a misguided idea of parenting mentioned in the passage?A. Children should be protected from any dangers

37、by their parentsB. The more conscientious parents are, the more children will surely benefit from parentingC. Children will die unless ceaselessly watched D. Children are likely to fulfill their potential with a loving home and adequate stimulation59. The underlined word “laggard” in Paragraph 2 pro

38、bably means a country that _.A. is ahead in development B. falls slow behind others C. is free from physical or mental disorderD. moves to a higher position 60. Which of the following can we learn from the passage? A. Only warm, capable and middle-class people can adopt a child.B. When it comes to c

39、hild-raising, Economist readers will become more rational. C. Children in rich countries are in greater danger due to the bad influence of crime dramas. D. Although poor parents spend more time with their kids than they once did, they spend less than rich parents do.61. This passage is mainly writte

41、re You Listening to What Your Heart Is Telling You?Wearable technology is getting a lot of attention these days. These devices are becoming increasingly more integrated into our daily lives and are providing new insights into our personal activity and fitness levels. According to IDC Research, the w

42、orldwide wearables market will reach 45.7 million units shipped by the end of 2015 and 126.1 million units in 2019.To date, the vast majority of that growth has been in basic activity trackers like the Fitbit One and the Jawbone UP that use an accelerometer (加速计) to measure movement and translate th

43、ose measurements into estimates of step counts, calories burned, distance travelled and other metrics (度量标准). However, these devices wont tell you how your body responded to that movement. In other words, while an activity tracker can estimate that youve taken 10,000 steps in a day, it cant tell you

44、 how hard your body worked to take those 10,000 steps or how your body recovered from that effort. Measurements of both physical activity and the bodys response to physical activity are important components in determining whether youre actually improving your health and fitness.This can be explained

45、 by what exercise scientists refer to as workload. Workload is defined as the amount of time spent doing an activity or workout multiplied by the intensity (强度) of that activity. For example, to burn approximately 400 calories you can work out for an hour at low intensity or work out for 20 minutes

46、at very high intensity. This may seem obvious, but while basic activity trackers can be good at measuring how many steps youve taken, they are incapable of telling you how your body actually responded to those steps. The best way to quantify your bodys true response to workload is by continuously an

47、d accurately measuring heart rate.With accurate information about your workloads and level of effort you are on your way to getting much better insight into your health and fitness. For example, with training you will start to see improvements in your cardiac efficiency (心效率). Like any muscle, the h

48、eart and cardiovascular (心血管) system grow stronger and more efficient with exercise, so as you get in better shape your body is able to produce the same amount of work for less beats from your heart. There are many other metrics that can be generated from accurate biometric sensors including maximal

49、 oxygen consumption (VO2 max) for cardiovascular fitness measurement, heart rate recovery, heart rate variability for monitoring training levels and stress, blood pressure, and breathing rate. This is why more companies are adding continuous heart rate monitoring to their next-gen wearable products.

50、 You can expect to see this trend continue as consumers get more value from the powerful insights that accurate heart rate data can provide.62. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 2? A. The disadvantages of basic activity trackers. B. The metrics of future wearable technology. C. The

51、 growth in wearable devices. D. Important physical activities.63. According to the passage, the next-gen wearable products will be better than basic activity trackers in that _.A. they are like the Fitbit One and the Jawbone UPB. they are good at measuring your physical activityC. they are likely to

52、 have a sensor monitoring heart rate D. they are able to estimate step counts, calories burned and distance travelled64. In which column of the newspaper can this passage most probably be found?A. Advertisement. B. Finance. C. Medicine. D. Science.65. We can learn from the passage that _.A. with tra

53、ining your cardiovascular system will be improved B. workload is the amount of time you spend working outC. Fitbit One can respond to physical activity as well as measuring the bodys movement D. measuring physical activity is more important than measuring the bodys response to it DOur house was dire

54、ctly across the street from the clinic entrance of Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to patients at the clinic. One summer evening as I was preparing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly awful looking man. He is hardly

55、 taller than my eight-year-old son. The most shocking thing is his face-twisted from swelling, red and raw. Yet his voice was pleasant as he told me that he came for a treatment this morning from the eastern shore, and theres no bus till morning. Hed been hunting for a room since noon but with no su

56、ccess. “I guess its my face. I know it looks terrible, but my doctor says with a few more treatments.” For a moment I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I could sleep in this rocking chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning.”I told him we would find him a bed, but to rest on

57、the porch. When I had finished the dishes, I talked with him. It didnt take a long time to see that this old man had an oversized heart crowded into that tiny body. He told me he fished for a living to support his daughter, her five children, and her husband, who was hopelessly crippled (残疾的)from a

58、back injury. He didnt tell it by way of complaint. He was grateful that no pain accompanied his disease, which was apparently a form of skin cancer. He thanked God for giving him the strength to keep going. At bedtime, we put a camp bed in the childrens room for him. When I got up in the morning, th

59、e bed linens (床单) were neatly folded and the little man was out on the porch. Before he left for his bus, he asked if he could come back and stay the next time he had a treatment. I told him he was welcome to come again.On his next trip he arrived a little after seven in the morning. As a gift, he b

60、rought a big fish and the largest oysters（牡蛎）I had ever seen. I knew his bus left at 4:00 a. m. and I wondered what time he had to get up in order to do this for us. In the years he came to stay overnight with us, there was never a time that he did not bring us fish or oysters or vegetables from his
