Microwaves may be great at warming up food, but what about warming people?

Using microwaves to directly heat owners of a room would save much of the energy wasted by heating walls and furniture. And despite popular ideas about microwaves, this technique would be safe, according to Charles R. Burlier of the Microwave Research Center in Marlborough, New Hampshire. Low-power microwaves only penetrate (貫穿) the skin (low-power microwave penetration in a ham is about 0.2 inches, for example) and with no negative effects.

To test this idea, Buffler subjected himself to microwaves in a special room using a standard 500-watt, 2459 MHz magnetron (磁控管). He found that a person will start to feel warmth at about 20 milliwatts per square centimeter (mw. / sq. cm. ) ; a satisfactory feeling of warmth occurs between 35 and 50mw. / sq. cm. By comparison, a person standing in noonday summer sun feels the amount of 85 mw. / sq. cm. And a frozen meat pie in your microwave oven receives about 1000 mw. / sq. cm.

In houses of the future, each room could be provided with its own magnetron, says Buffler. When you stepped into the living room, for example, a motion detector (運(yùn)動(dòng)感應(yīng)器)would turn on the magnetron, filling the room with low-power microwaves. In the same way that a microwave oven heats up a hamburger, but not the plate it’s on, you would feel warmth from the microwaves without changing the temperature of your coffee table. (You could, however, make your favorite easy chair even more comfortable by treating it with a radiation-absorbing chemical.)

While it might be some time before homeowners are comfortable enough with the idea to set up whole-body microwave heaters in houses, Buffler says microwaves may attract livestock(家畜) farmers. Lambs that are born outdoors in winter, for example, are frequently lost to cold. Microwaves could warm the lambs safely and quickly.

1.Which of the following can tell the main idea of the passage?

A．A new heating system.                   B．A new microwave oven.

C．A popular technique.                     D．The magnetron.

2.According to Paragraph 2, which of the following does not describe the characteristics of a microwave heater?

A．It directly heats people in a room.

B．It heats walls and furniture in a room.

C．It is safe.

D．It saves energy.

3.The test conducted by Buffler shows that when a person feels comfortable warmth, he receives about ________________.

A．20 mw. / sq. cm.    B．40 mw. / sq. cm.     C．60 mw. / sq. cm.     D．85 mw. / sq. cm.

4.According to Paragraph 4, which of the following fills the room with low-power microwaves?

A．The magnetron.                        B．The motion detector.

C．The microwave oven.                    D．The radiation-absorbing chemical.

5.Which of the following statements about microwave heaters would Buffler most probably agree with?

A．Microwave heaters will soon be widely used by homeowners.

B．Microwave heaters sometimes make people feel uncomfortable.

C．Perhaps microwave heaters will be first used by livestock farmers, who wish to protect their lambs in winter.

D．Microwave heaters cannot be accepted by the public because they are somewhat unsafe.

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is one of the most loved children’s books of all time, and many adults enjoy it as well. It tells the story of a young girl named Alice, who follows a rabbit entering a magical world called Wonderland. She has many experiences which seem to change the rules of reasoning or common sense. The popularity of the book comes from its imagination, interesting story, and art work.

The writer of the book is Lewis Carroll. In fact, Lewis Carroll was not the writer’s real name. His real name was Charles Dodgson. One day, he took a boat ride down the Thames River to have a picnic with three little girls who were friends of the family. To keep them entertained on the ride, he told them a story in which Alice, the middle child, was the main character. They enjoyed the story very much.

Charles later wrote the story down under the name Alice’s Adventures Under Ground and gave it to Alice as a Christmas present. Later, he gave a copy to his friend George MacDonald. George read it to his children and they loved it. George suggested to Charles that he make a book from his story. Charles then wrote more parts to the story until it was around 35,000 words. It was first printed in 1866, with art work by John Tenniel, under the name Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The book was an immediate success. One of its first fans was Queen Victoria. She immediately requested a collection of all of Lewis Carroll’s works. She was surprised to find that they included many works on math. In fact, Charles Dodgson was a highly respected mathematician. This can be seen in many puzzles and plays on reasoning that appear in his books and poems.

Since the story was first printed, it has kept selling up to the present day. It has been translated into over fifty languages and has had several movies based on it.

1.The passage is mainly about _________.

A．Charles’ family life

B．the birth of a book and its lasting influences

C．a(chǎn) magical world called Wonderland

D．a(chǎn) girl’s adventurous experiences

2.Who first had the idea of making a book from the story “Alice Adventures Under Ground”?

A．Alice

B．Charles

C．George

D．John

3.Which of the following is the right order of the passage?

a. Charles gave his story to Alice as a Christmas present.

b. Charles had a picnic with three little girls on the Thames.

c. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland was first printed in 1866.

d. More parts were added to the story by Charles.

e. The book won a large number of fans.

A．c-b-a-d-e

B．c-a-b-e-d

C．b-a-d-c-e

D．b-a-c-e-d

SECTION B (10 points )

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.

The average college student in America spent an estimated 700 dollars on textbooks last year. The National Association of College Stores reported more than five billion dollars in sales of textbooks and course materials.

Association spokesman Charles Schmidt says electronic textbooks now represent just two to three percent of sales. But he says that is expected to reach 10 to 15 percent by 2012.

Online versions are now available for many of the most popular college textbooks. E-textbooks can cost half the price of a new print textbook. But students usually lose access after the end of the term. And the books cannot be placed on more than one device, so they are not easy to share.

So what do students think of e-textbooks? Administrators at Northwest Missouri State University wanted to find out. Earlier this year they tested them with 500 students in 20 classes.

The students in the survey reported that downloading the books from the Internet was easy. They liked the idea of carrying lighter backpacks. And 56 percent said they were better able to find information.

But most found that using e-textbooks did not change their study habits. And 60 percent felt they read more when they were reading on paper. In all, almost half the students said they still liked physical textbooks better.

But the survey found that cost could be a big influence. 55 percent said they would choose e-textbooks if using them meant their textbook rental fee would not increase.

Roger Von Holzen heads the Center for Information Technology in Education at Northwest Missouri State. He tells us that administrators are disappointed with the e-textbooks now available because the majority are not interactive.

He thinks growth will come when more digital books include video, activities, games and other ways to interact with the information. The technology is improving. But for now, most of the books are just words on a screen.

81. How much do the average college student in America spend on textbooks last year? （no more than 4 words）

______________________________________________________________________________

82. What is the percentage of the e-textbook sales now according to Charles Schmidt? （no more than 4 words）

______________________________________________________________________________

83. What do students think of downloading the books from the Internet in the survey? （no more than 2 words）

______________________________________________________________________________

84. Why are administrators disappointed with the e-textbooks now available? （no more than 6 words）

Lead（鉛） deposits, which accumulated（增加） in soil and snow during the 1960's and 70's, were primarily the result of leaded gasoline emissions originating in the United States. In the twenty years that the Clean Air Act has mandated（托管） unleaded gas use in the United States, the lead accumulation world-wide has decreased greatly.

A study published recently in the journal Nature shows that air-borne leaded gas emissions from the United States were the leading contributor to the high concentration of lead in the snow in Greenland. The new study is a result of the continued research led by Dr. Charles Boutron, an expert on the impact of heavy metals on the environment at the National Center for Scientific Research in France. A study by Dr. Boutron published in 1991 showed that lead levels in arctic (北極的) snow were declining（減少）.

In his new study, Dr. Boutron found the ratios of the different forms of lead in the leaded gasoline used in the United States were different from the ratios of European, Asian and Canadian gasoline and thus enabled scientists to differentiate (分區(qū)) the lead sources. The dominant lead ratio found in Greenland snow matched that found in gasoline from the United States.

In a study published in the journal Ambio, scientists found that lead levels in soil in the North-eastern United States had decreased markedly since the introduction of unleaded gasoline. Many scientists had believed that the lead would stay in soil and snow for a longer period.

The authors of the Ambio study examined samples of the upper layers of soil taken from the same sites of 30 forest floors in New England, New York and Pennsylvania in 1980 and in 1990. The forest environment processed and redistributed (再分配)the lead faster than the scientists had expected. Scientists say both studies show that certain parts of the ecosystem (生態(tài)系統(tǒng) ) respond rapidly to reductions in atmospheric pollution, but that these findings should not be used as a license to pollute.

1. The study published in the journal Nature indicates that ________.

A. the Clean Air Act has not produced the desired results

B. lead deposits in arctic snow are on the increase

C. lead will stay in soil and snow longer than expected

D. the US is the major source of lead pollution in arctic snow

2. Lead accumulation worldwide decreased significantly after the use of unleaded gas in the US ________.

A. was discouraged               B. was carried out by law

C. was forbidden by law           D. was introduced

3. How did scientists discover the source of lead pollution in Greenland?

A. By analyzing the data published in journals like Nature and Ambio.

B. By observing the lead accumulations in different parts of the arctic area.

C. By studying the chemical elements of soil and snow in Northeastern America.

D. By comparing the chemical compositions of leaded gasoline used in various countries.

4. The authors of the Ambio study have found that ________.

A forests get rid of lead pollution faster than expected

B. lead accumulations in forests are more difficult to deal with

C. lead deposits are widely distributed in the forests of the US

D. the upper layers of soil in forests are easily polluted by lead emissions

5. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that scientists ________.

A. are puzzled by the mystery of forest pollution

B. feel ease by the use of unleaded gasoline

C. still consider lead pollution a problem

D. lack enough means to combat lead pollution
