1.Recent research had claimed that an excess of positive ions (离子) in the air can have an ill-effect on people's physical or psychological health. What are positive ions? Well, the air is full of ions, electrically charged particles, and generally there is a rough balance between the positive and the negative charges. But sometimes this balance becomes disturbed and a larger proportion of positive ions are found. This happens naturally before thunderstorms, earthquakes or when winds are blowing in certain countries. Or it can be caused by a build-up of static electricity indoors from carpets or clothing made of man-made fibers, or from TV sets, duplicators or computer display screens.When a large number of positive ions are present in the air many people experience unpleasant effects such as headaches, fatigue, irritability, and some particularly sensitive people suffer nausea (恶心) or even mental disturbance. Animals are also found to be affected, particularly before earthquakes; snakes have been observed to come out of hibernation(冬眠), rats to flee from their burrows, dogs howl and cats jump about unaccountably. This has led the US Geographical Survey to fund a network of volunteers to watch animals in all effort to foresee such disasters before they hit vulnerable areas such as California.Conversely, when large numbers of negative ions are present, then people have a feeling of well-being. Natural conditions that produce these large amounts are near the sea, close to waterfalls or fountains, or in any place where water is sprayed, or forms a spray. This probably accounts for the beneficial effect of a holiday by the sea, or in the mountains with tumbling streams or waterfalls.To increase the supply of negative ions indoors, some scientists recommend the use of ionizers : small portable machines which generate negative ions. They claim that ionizers not only clean and refresh the air but also improve the health of people sensitive to excess positive ions. Of course, there are the detractors, other scientists, who dismiss such claims and are skeptical about negative/positive ion research. Therefore people can only make up their own minds by observing the effects on themselves, or on others, of a negative rich or poor environment.After all, it is debatable whether depending on seismic readings to anticipate earthquakes is more effective than watching the cat.According to the passage, static electricity can be caused byA.using home-made electrical goods.B.wearing clothes made of natural materials.C.walking on artificial floor coverings.D.copying TV programs on a computer.

  • 第13题:

    If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year. A well-known scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1937), concluded from other men's work and his own among people in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities. He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.

    Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature. Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!

    1). Huntington based his conclusions on ___________.

    A. work with people in different climates

    B. records of temperature changes

    C. records of change in his own intelligence

    D. all of the above

    2). Ellsworth Huntington decided that climate and temperature have _________.

    A. a great effect on everyone's intelligence

    B. no effect on people's intelligence

    C. effect on only a few people's intelligence

    D. some effect on most people's intelligence

    3). One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that ___________.

    A. there are some things making all nature different from before

    B. it is neither too warm nor too cold

    C. it is more natural for the development of mental abilities

    D. it lasts longer than the other seasons

    4). The two best seasons for thinking seem to be _____________.

    A. winter and summer

    B. fall and winter

    C. spring and fall

    D. summer and spring

    5). According to the passage above, vacations from thinking should be taken ___________.

    A. as seldom as possible

    B. during spring and fall

    C. several times throughout the year

    D. during the summer

    答案:B
    解析:
    考查动词用法及时态。victimize“使受害,使受苦”,为及物动词,且句中表达的是被动意义,故排除A、C。句中陈述的是一般事实,没有完成意义,故用一般现在时的被动语态。因此正确答案为B。

  • 第17题:

    资料:When we see well,we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.
    People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes,Everything else seems blurry(=unclear).Many people who do a lot of work,such as writing,reading and sewing become near-sighted.
    People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away,but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading,they must get glasses,too.
    Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism. This,too,can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts. Long ago these people often became blind. Now,however,it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.
    Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself,look at an object out of one eye;Then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object’s relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.

    People who suffer from astigmatism have______.

    A.a difficulty that can be corrected by an operation
    B.eyes that are not exactly the right shape
    C.an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glasses
    D.one eye bigger than the other

    答案:B
    解析:
    本题考查的是细节理解。
    【关键词】people;suffer from astigmatism

    【解析】本题的问题是“患有散光的人__________。”A选项“可以通过手术纠正问题”;B选项“眼睛形状不规则”;C选项“一种无法用眼镜矫正的视力问题”;D选项“一只眼睛比另一只眼睛大”。根据主题句,散光主要是眼睛形状不规则造成的,但是可以通过戴眼镜来矫正,因此B选项正确。

    Directions:Recently, the fact that more and more students have spent too much time playing computer games has aroused great concern. Though the computer and the Internet have brought us great convenience and pleasure in getting information, entertainment and contact with others, we should not ignore their negative impacts on people, especially young students. What bad influences do the computer games have on people and what should we do with them? Write a composition to give your views. You should write at least 160 words.

    正确答案:
    Recently, the fact that more and more students have spent too much time playing computer games has aroused great concern. It's high time to prevent them from indulging in those games.
    Though the computer and the Internet have brought us great convenience and pleasure in getting information, entertainment and contact with others, we should not ignore their negative impacts on people, especially young students. To begin with, to play computer games excessively can damage the players' physical health, especially their eyes. In addition, those students who are addicted to computer games tend to neglect their studies, idle away their time and even commit crimes.
    From what has been discussed above, I think it is imperative that some effective measures be taken to solve the problem. To begin with, the computer access for students should be controlled and the time students spend on computer games should be limited. Then, the quality of computer software and games for young students should be examined in case they are adversely influenced by inappropriate programs that involve violence and sex content. Finally, the law and the regulation should be made to protect students from being corrupted and misled by computer games. Meanwhile, parents and teachers should take responsibility for educating the students to realize the harmful effects of computer games.
