The second kind of physical activity needs greater strength or extra effort. Most of us get tired if we try to run half a mile without stopping, but a specially-trained person can do this without much effort. Three years ago, some scientists carried out experiments, which produced meaningful and unexpected results. They wanted to find out whether a certain amount of physical exercise would injure those suffering from heart problems. They selected some male patients and trained them in continuous bicycle riding. They were surprised to find that the harmful effect of a given amount of physical effort was actually less on the hearts of these trained patients than on those of the patients who were not similarly trained. This is important because it shows that regular physical exercise enables us to make better use of the oxygen we breathe in and that this training, in fact, reduces the amount of work our hearts do. Many tasks which are hard for untrained people are not hard at all for trained people.
小题1:. The first kind of physical activity must be strictly controlled because ______.
A.a mistake in the wrong direction is dangerous to the fingers |
B.a wrong movement in a direction will cause no mistakes |
C.a movement in the wrong direction will cause a mistake |
D.a slight movement of a finger will lead to a mistake |
What must a dancer do before she can balance herself?
A.she must dance on the point of her shoes | B.she must receive long-time training |

A.some male patients were asked to ride bicycles regularly in the experiments | B.the physical exercise had more harmful effect on the hearts of the untrained patients |
C.the physical exercise was harmless to the male patients with heart trouble | |
D.the physical exercise could be helpful for the patients to take in more oxygen |
A.Training Our Bodies | B.Physical Activities |

Eleanor Johnson, an English professor at Columbia University in New York, says, “Ithink text messaging has made students believe that it is far more acceptable than it actually is to just make spelling and grammatical mistakes.” She says her students over the past several years have increasingly used less formal English in their writing. She says words and phrases like “you know” now appearing research papers. And she now has to talk about another problem in class---incorrect word use.
Professor Johnson doubts a strong connection between the rise of communication online and an increase in writing mistakes. But she admits there may not be much scientific proof, at least not yet.
David Crystal, a British language expert, says the actively changing nature of the Internet makes it difficult to stay unchanged in studying its effects. But he believes its effect on language is small. He says, “The main effect of the Internet on language has been to increase the expressive richness of language, providing the language with a new set of communicative content that didn’t exist in the past.” Erin Jansen, founder of an online dictionary of Internet and text messaging terms, says his new technology has not changed existing language but has greatly added to the vocabulary. “Basically it is a freedom of expression,” she says, “If it is helping them write more or communicate more, that is great. That is what teachers and educators want---to get students communicating.”
But Erin Jansen and David Crystal agree with Eleanor Jonson on at least one thing. Teachers need to make sure students understand the uses and rules of language.

A.The possibilities of avoiding the use of less formal words |
B.The causes of the Internet’s great effects on language |
C.The necessity of helping students reduce writing mistakes |
D.The importance of students’ knowing how to use language |

650,000 people live in the city. More than one million people live in the area. Like many other American cities, Memphis has had racial problems. About forty-eight percent of the city’s population is African American. In 1968, city workers who collected waste went on strike. Most of the workers were black.

October is usually the busiest month in the college calendar.Universities have something called Freshers’ Week for their newcomers.It’s a great opportunity to make new friends,join lots of clubs and settle into university life.
However,having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind,you can feel nervous when meeting lots of strangers in big halls. Where do you start? Who should you make friends with? Which clubs should you join?
Luckily, there will be thousands of others in the same boat as you worrying about starting their university social life on the right foot.So just take it all in slowly.Don’t rush into anything that you’ll regret for the next three years.
Here are some top tips from past students on how to survive Freshers’ week:
·Learn rules.Make sure you know British social etiquette (礼节).Have a few wine glasses and snacks handy for your housemates and friends.
·Be kind.Sometimes cups of tea or even pieces of French fries can give you a good start in making friends.
·Be sociable.The more active you are, the more 1ikely you’ll meet new people than if you’re someone who is shy and never leaves his room.
·Bring a doorstop. Keep your door open when you’re in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that you’re friendly.
So with a bit of clever planning and motivation,Freshers’ Week can give you a great start to your university life and soon you’ll be passing on your experience to the next year’s recruits.

Up to 200 families in Didcot now receive the gas via the national gas power system. Head of energy and technology at British Gas,Martin Orrill,said customers wouldn’t notice any difference as the gas is purified to the highest standard and has no smell.The gas is produced at a sewage(污物) treatment works in Didcot.
The entire process takes only less than three weeks, with the sewage being collected and sent first to settlement tanks.The solid waste material is then fed into digesters, where anaerobic bacteria(厌氧菌)digest the sewage,with the aid of enzymes(酶)to speed up the process.The digestion process produces methane,which can be burned to drive machines(甲烷)to produce electricity,or can be purified and fed into the gas network and piped to homes and businesses. British Gas says supplying the gas rather than electricity is far more efficient since around two-thirds of the energy is lost in producing electricity.
Partners in the Didcot project,British Gas,Scotia Gas Network,and Thames Water,all hope to expand the process to other towns,and other companies such as Ecotricity and United Utilities have also announced biomethane projects being planned.One of these projects in Manchester could be supplying 500 homes with biomethane by mid next year. Another British Gas project in Suffolk will provide gas from digestion of brewery(啤酒厂)waste to around 235 families.
The Didcot project cost£25 million and was influenced by promises of government aids aimed at encouraging companies to develop renewable technologies.An EU directive means the UK must ensure at least 15 percent of its energy is from renewable sources by 2020.
The UK produces about 1.73 million tons of sewage annually.If all sewage treatment works in the UK were fitted with the technology,they could supply gas for up to 350, 000 families.
小题1:. Which of the following is TRUE of the biomethane gas?
A.it’s mainly made from rotting plants | B.It’s an environmentally friendly gas |
C.Its production process is too long | D.It’s easily recognized by customers |
A.To digest the solid waste material | B.To help get rid of anaerobic bacteria |
C.To help purify the biomethane. | D.To speed up the digestion process. |
A.as the power for vehicles | B.for heating and cooking |
C.to produce electricity | D.to drive a variety of machines |
A.the UK government supports the biomethane projects |
B.the biomethane projects are very costly |
C.the biomethane projects still face many barriers |
D.the biomethane projects are promising |
A.Computer science | B.Engineering | C.Energy | D.Business |
