Step 1 On a note card or piece of paper, write down the subject that you are interested in. Just get the main idea down. For example, you might write:
Discover more about dinosaurs.Step 2 Next, stop and think for a moment about what you already know about your subject. List what you already know like the sentences below:
1. Dinosaurs lived long before human beings appeared.2. Dinosaurs lived on the earth for more than 150 million years.
3. Some dinosaurs fed on plants, some on meat.
Step 3 What can you do with what
you want to learn? By asking questions. On your paper, start writing down questions about the dinosaurs as you think of them:
1. What’s the best weather for dinosaurs to live in?2. How many kinds of dinosaurs are there?
3. Have dinosaurs really disappeared?
Step 4 Armed with your list of questions, you can now go to the nearest library or computer to begin your research. As you learn more about your subject, you’ll probably discover some new questions.
For example, you might discover that dinosaurs disappeared about 65 million years ago. Why? What happened? Asking new question![](http://img.shitiku.com.cn/uploads/allimg/20191217/20191217141949-77774.gif)

After World War II city residents became wealthier. They had more children. They needed more space. They move out of their apartments in the city to buy their own homes. They bought houses in the suburbs areas near a city where people live. These are areas without many offices or factories. During the 1950s the American “dream” was to have a house in the suburbs.
Now things are changing. The children of the people who left the cities in 1950s are now adults. They unlike their parents want to live in the cities. Many young professionals, doctors, lawyers and executives(主管人员) are moving back into the city. Many are single; others are married but often without children. They prefer the city to the suburbs because their jobs are there; they are afraid of the fuel shortage; or they just enjoy the excitement and opportunities which the city offers.
This population shift(转变) is bringing problems as well as benefits. Countless poor people must leave their apartments in the city because the owners want to sell the buildings or make apartments for sale instead of for rent. In the 1950s, many poor people did not have enough money to move to the suburbs; now many of these people do not have enough money to stay in the cities.
Only a few years ago, people thought that the older American cities were dying. Some city residents now see a bright, new fut

The project promised to solve the problem of the ages for power plants: how to produce cheap, clean, reliable electricity.No existing technology can do all three perfectly.
The problem is IGCC isn"t there yet.It costs about 20 percent more than traditional plants.And even though it"s easier to collect the resulting carbon dioxide from an IGCC plant than a traditional plant, there"s no proven way to get rid of the greenhouse gas.One plan is to drill a shaft(通道) to pump the carbon dioxide underground, into saltwater formations.But there"s no guarantee it will remain underground forever.
NRG administrators think solving the IGCC riddles is worth the trouble because they expect the U.S.will soon limit the amount of carbon dioxide that power generators may give out .
"With the additional cost of IGCC, to just voluntarily build something that"s 20 percent more expensive, that’s commercial suicide," NRG chief administrator, David Crane said.
NRG administrators expect the cost to decline after six or seven plants are built.But other industry experts think it will take about a dozen plants for the price to be competitive with traditional coal plants.
Takaya Watanabe, a vice general manager of Mitsubishi, admits that the cost challenges are difficult.“It’s good for a company to say we want to be green, but unless someone is willing to pay, it"s a dream.It won"t keep our family eating rice," he said.
小题1:What is expected of the new technology?
A.To make electricity without polluting the air. |
B.To produce energy without burning coal. |
C.To keep the use of electricity cheaper. |
D.To pump carbon dioxide more easily . |
A.How to pump greenhouse gases. |
B.How to deal with the high cost. |
C.How to get along with other partners. |
D.How to improve the new technology. |
A.New technologies are unacceptable to people. |
B.It"s unlikely to build more new power plants. |
C.The companies are run on a tight budget. |
D.Going green is easier said than done. |
One such place is the town of Lamu. Lamu was once a very important trading center in East Africa. This ancient city became part of the United Nations Heritage list in 2001. But it still faces threats. For example, a modern port might be built nearby.
Other endangered places include Ani, a city in Turkey, the town of Maluti in India, the ancient city of Ninevah in northern Iraq, the Sans-Souci palace in Haiti, and the former capital of Ayutthaya in Thailand.
The Global Heritage Fund is nonprofit organization based in California. The group says it only focuses on developing countries which often have few resources to protect places of cultural importance. And, other major cultural organizations often pay more attention to protecting places in the developed world. For example, the fund points out the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization has forty-five World Heritage places in Italy. UNESCO has forty-two in Spain. But Peru, famous for its ancient Incan buildings, has only nine World Heritage places. Guatemala has only three.
The Global Heritage Fund says its new report tries to place a value on cultural places so that they can also be considered as economic resources. It estimates that by 2025 these places of cultural importance could produce one hundred billion dollars a year in income for developing countries.
小题1: The underlined part “On the Verge” in Paragraph 1 is used to show the places are _____.
A.popular | B.famous |
C.endangered | D.dangerous |
A.development pressures | B.stealing |

A.protects places of cultural importance in developing countries |
B.protects places of cultural importance in developed countries |
C.provide resources to protect cultural places in every country |

A.Italy | B.Guatemala |
C.Peru | D.Spain |
importance_______.
A.has attracted a lot of attention worldwide |
B.will start to benefit developing countries in 2015 |
C.is mainly to increase income of developing countries |
D.can help developing countries make money out of them |
Most cruises(游船) are seven nights long and typically begin an4 end in either Vancouver or Seattle.This "roundtrip" travel plan makes this a very popular cruise vacation because of the convenient flight schedules and affordable roundtrip airline tickets into and out of Vancouver and.Seattle.Longer 10-night and 11-night Inside Passage Cruises are available from California.Depending on your ship and your plan, a typical Alaska Inside Passage Cruise spends the first day cruising the famed Inside .Passage, a narrow waterway nestled between towering mountains, waterfront communities, and the Pacific Ocean.
Alaska Glacier Cruses.
Alaska Glacier Cruises are also known as Gulf of Alaska Cruises.Every cruise line has a different name for it, but they all mean the same thing —they are cruises that sail one-way through the Gulf of Alaska where you"ll find the greatest number of glaciers(冰川), mountains, wildlife and scenery.
Unlike an Alaska Inside Passage Cruise, an Alaska Glacier Cruise does not do a U—turn back to the; departure port.Alaska Glacier cruises are one way journey that sail from.North to South (Southbound Glacier Cruises) or South to North (Northbound Glacier Cruises).These routes allow you to spend more days in Alaska ports or National Glacier Parks as there are fewer days at sea compared to other cruises.If you only have a week and want wonderful glacier viewing and time on land, this is your best choice for an Alaska Cruise Vacation.
Regent Home Alaska Cruises
For a close and personal contact with the Great White North, step aboard the All-inclusive, 700-guest Seven Seas Mariner.You can watch seabirds perform beautiful dances or a group of playful whales swim by as you"re eating breakfast in your private room.

In the past, the working-class tended to be paid less than middle-class people, such as teachers and doctors. As a result of this and also of the fact that workers’ jobs were generally much less secure, distinct differences in life-styles and attitudes came into existence. The typical working man would collect his wages on Friday evening and then give them to his wife, leaving a little for drinking or betting.
The type of what a middle-class man did with his money was perhaps nearer the truth. He was and still is likely to take a longer-term view. Not only did he regard buying a house to provide him and his family with security. Only in very few cases did workers have the opportunity (or the education and training) to make such long-term plans.
Nowadays, much has changed. In a large number of cases factory workers earn as much. Social security and laws have made it less necessary than before to worry about “tomorrow”. Working-class people seem slowly to be losing the feeling of inferiority(自卑感)they had in the past. In fact there has been a growing tendency in the past few years for the middle-classes to feel slightly ashamed of their position.
The changes in both life-styles and attitudes are probably most easily seen among younger people. They generally tend to share very similar tastes in music and clothes. They spend their money enjoying themselves, and save for holidays or longer-term plans when necessary. There seems to be much less difference than in precious generations. Nevertheless, we still have a wide gap between the well-paid and the low-paid. As long as this gap exists, there will always be a possibility that new problems will appear between different groups.
小题1:Which of the following is seen as the main cause of class differences in the past?
A.Life style and occupation. |

B.working-class ways of spending the weekend remain the same |

D.middle-class attitudes towards their positions have changed greatly |
A.They had to save money for security. |
B.They couldn’t make long-term plans. |
C.They could make as much money as they do now. |
D.They didn’t have the sense of inferiority. |
A.they are provided with social security |
B.they can get much income |
C.better jobs are available for all of them |
D.the government offers legal protection |
A.Changes are slowly taking place in all aspects of the British society. |
