It had also made 49 that leadership usually favors the man who can get up and speak his mind.

Then I started teaching in night schools, where I had to show 50 results quickly. These 51 didn't come for college credits. They came for one reason only: to solve problems.

Biologists believe that love is fundamentally a biological rather than a cultural construct, because the capacity for love is found in all human cultures and similar behavior is found in some other animals. In humans the purpose of all the desire is to focus attention on the raising of offspring. Children demand an unusual amount of parenting, and two parents are better than one. Love is a signal that both partners are committed, and makes it more likely that this commitment will continue as long as necessary for children to reach independence. But what does science have to say about the notion of love at first sight?

In recent years the ability to watch the brain in action has offered a wealth of insight into the mechanics of love. Researchers have shown that when a person falls in love, a dozen different part of brain work together to release chemicals that trigger feelings of euphoria, bonding and excitement. It has also been shown that the unconditional love between a mother and a child is associated with activity in different regions of the brain from those associated with pair-bonding

7

love.

Passionate love is rooted in the reward circuitry of the brain—the same area that is active when humans feel a rush from cocaine. In fact, the desire, motivations and withdrawals involved in love have a great deal in common with addiction. Its most intense forms tend to be associated with the early stages of a relationship, which then give way to a calmer attachment form of love one feels with a long term partner.

What all this means is that one special person can become chemically rewarding to the brain of another. Love at first sight, then, is only possible if the mechanism for generating long-term attachment can be triggered quickly. There are signs that it can be. One line of evidence is that people are able to decide within a second how attractive they find another person. This decision appears to be related to facial attractiveness, although men may favor women with waist-to-hip ratio of 0.7, no matter what their overall weight is. (This ratio may indicate a woman‟s reproductive health.)

Another piece of evidence comes from work by a psychologist at Ben-Gurion University, who found in a survey that a small percentage (11%) of people in long-term relationships said that they began with love at first sight. In other words, in some couples the initial favorable impressions of attractiveness triggered love which sustained a lengthy bond. It is also clear that some couples need to form their bonds over a longer period, and popular culture tells many tales of friends who become lovers.

One might also assume that if a person is looking for a partner with traits that cannot be quantified instantly, such as compassion, intellect or a good sense of humor, then it would be hard to form a relationship on the basis of love at first sight. Those more concerned with visual appearances, though, might find this easier. So it appears that love at first sight exists, but is not a very common basis for long-term relationships. 58. When a person falls in love, _____________. A. he feels as if he were addicted to cocaine.

B. he will be committed to the beloved as long as necessary.

C. he will experience complex feelings brought on by different regions of his brain. D. he will experience a calmer attachment form of love before he feels the extreme love. 59. We can infer from the passage that ________.

8

A. pair-bonding love comes from a long stable friendship.

B. the mechanism for creating long-term attachment ensures love at first sight C. it is impossible for those ordinary-looking people to fall in love at first sight.

D. men may be attracted by a girl whose figure suggests her admirable reproductive capacity. 60. The underlined word “traits” in the last paragraph probably means ______. A. characteristics B. something typical in your temper C. particular quantities in your personality D. attitudes that show your moral standards 61. Which of the following may be the best title of the passage? A. The stages of passionate love B. The science of love at first sight

C. The biological construct of pair-bonding D. The mechanism for generating long-term love

Electronic sensors built into paper could be used in a range of ways from information storage to touch screens and more.

Electronic sensors built into cartons（纸盒）may make it easier to tell when it‟s time to throw out rotten milk or orange juice. And that‟s just the start. At least that‟s the goal for researchers working on putting electronics into paper. They‟re trying to figure out how to combine the flexibility, low-cost and recyclability of paper with the information-carrying ability of electronics. Daniel Torbjork, a physics graduate student in Finland, has been working on the problem. He‟s published a review of the field in the journal Advanced Materials.

Much research has been focused in this area. While most electronic applications require patterned conducting structures, conductive paper could be used in applications such as energy storage devices, sensors, electric heaters and others, according to Torbjork.

“You could even have some interactive functions in magazines,” Torbjork said, “You could put a simple game in a package. If you want a touch screen, press a button and then something happen. Sensors in paper could tell us when something has gone bad.”

Additional applications, such as information storage and security paper, have been suggested for magnetic papers containing magnetite. In Massachusetts, researchers have figured out how to post a video of such a device put into a paper airplane.

9

German researchers have also put electronic chips in paper bank notes to defend counter-feiters（造伪币者）. Paper is a good material but printing electronics also requires low-cost manufacturing. As many US and European paper makers lose market share to cheaper paper from China, these big paper companies are looking for added value products. That‟s where electronic paper devices could make a difference.

“The major obstacles are paper‟s large surface roughness and chemical impurities.” Torbjork says. But others in the field think that electronic sensors in paper are still far from the consumer marketplace.

“I don‟t think it‟s going to happen.” said Roy Horgan. “You need a conductive surface. It could be 10 years out. What we are looking for are solutions that you can commercialize to­day.” Solar Print is partnering with Italian automaker Fiat to develop a unique auto-glass with tiny photostatic cells（光电）that can capture electricity from the sun. In the meantime, using paper to conduct electricity is still a “blue-sky” project.

“I would love to see someone prove me wrong, because that means that it‟s actually happening.” Horgan said. “If someone comes up with conductive paper, then that‟s a very interesting technology.”

62. Putting electronics into paper will ________. A. cut the cost and impurity of paper

B. depend on flexible conductive structure C. help consume rotten milk or orange juice

D. combine the advantages of paper and electronics

63. Paragraphs 4 to 7 mainly talk about the ________ of the conductive paper. A. practical use

B. theories

C. structures

D. design process

. Some paper makers welcome the new technology probably because it will ________. A. put an end to fake money C. add more value to paper

B. make the paper smoother

D. improve the printing technology

65. From the passage, we know that Roy Horgan ________. A. has a burning desire to make a great profit B. showed much interest in Solar Print industry C. is not confident about the conductive paper

10

D. started a “blue-sky” project to study paper

D

Motion pictures are so much a part of our lives that it‟s hard to imagine a world without them. We enjoy them in theatres, at home, in offices, in cars and buses, and on airplanes.

① For about 100 years, people have been trying to understand why this medium has so attracted us. Films communicate information and ideas, and they show us places and ways of life we might not otherwise know. Important as the benefits are, though, something more is at stake. Films offer us ways of seeing and feeling that we find deeply satisfying. They take us through experiences. The experiences are often driven by stories, with characters we come to care about, but a film might also develop an idea or explore visual qualities or sound textures. A film takes us on a journey, offering a patterned experience that engages our minds and emotions.

② Films are designed to have effects on viewers. Late in the 19th century, moving pictures emerged as a public amusement. They succeeded because they spoke to the imaginative needs of a broad-based audience. All the traditions that emerged－ telling fictional stories, recording actual events, animating objects or pictures, experimenting with pure form－aimed to give viewers experiences they couldn‟t get from other media. The men and women who made films discovered that they could control aspects of cinema to give their audience richer, more engaging experiences. Learning from one another, expanding and refining the options available, filmmakers developed skills that became the basis of film as an art form.

③ The popular origins of cinema suggest that some common ways of talking won‟t help us much in understanding film. Take the distinction between art and entertainment. Some people would say that blockbusters(大片) playing at the multiplex are merely “entertainment”, whereas films for a narrower public－perhaps independent films for festival fare, or specialized experimental works－are true art. Usually the art / entertainment split carries a not-so-hidden value judgment: art is high-brow, whereas entertainment is superficial. Yet things aren‟t that simple. As we just indicated, many of the artistic resources of cinema were discovered by filmmakers working for the general public. During the 1910s and 1920s, for instance, many films that aimed only to be entertaining opened up new possibilities for film editing. As for the matter of value, it‟s clear that popular traditions can promote art of high quality. Cinema is an art because it offers filmmakers ways to design experiences for viewers, and those experiences can be valuable.

11

④ Sometimes, too, people treat film art as opposed to film as a business. This split is related to the issue of entertainment, since entertainment generally is sold to a mass audience. Again, however, in most modern societies, no art floats free of economic ties. Novels good, bad, or indifferent are published because publishers expect to sell them. Painters hope that collectors and museums will acquire their work. True, some artworks are funded through taxes or private donations, but that process, too, involves the artist in a financial transaction(交易). Films are no different. Others are funded by patronage or public moneys. Even if you decide to make your own digital movie, you face the problem of paying for it－and you may hope to earn a little extra for all your time and effort.

The crucial point is that considerations of money don‟t necessarily make the artist any less creative or the project any less worthwhile. Money can corrupt any line of business (consider politics), but it doesn‟t have to. In Renaissance Italy, painters were commissioned by the Catholic church to illustrate events from the Bible. Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci worked for hire, but it would be hard to argue that it hurt their artistry.

Here we won‟t assume that film art prevents entertainment. We won‟t take the opposite position either－claiming that only Hollywood mass-market movies are worth attention. Similarly, we don‟t think that film art rises above commercial demand, but we also won‟t assume that money rules everything. Any art form offers a vast range of creative possibilities. Our basic assumption is that as an art, film offers experiences that viewers find worthwhile. 66. Where should the sentence “It doesn‟t happen by accident.” be put in the passage? A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ 67. Which of the following statements about film is TRUE? A. Hollywood films are usually far more appealing. B. Film offers a wide variety of creative possibilities.

C. Films are made in the hope that consumers will pay to see them. D. When watching films, viewers feel controlled by film designers.

68. The writer uses the examples of Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci to ______. A. indicate that money is unlikely to corrupt artistry B. show that money doesn‟t necessarily destroy artistry C. prove that money cannot buy everything in the field of art

12

D. suggest that money is an important concern even for famous artists 69. According to the writer, film should ______ A. avoid concentrating on popular traditions B. focus on artistry rather than entertainment C. provide the audience with something worthwhile D. earn enough to pay for the developers‟ time and effort 70. Which of the following can be the proper title for the passage? A. Film: art or business

B. Art or entertainment

D. Money doesn‟t rule everything

C. Film offers us experiences

Commercial advertisement was once thought of as a technique of the marketers to inform the potential buyers about the availability of certain products. It was seen more as a medium to inform the buyers rather than persuade them to buy. The present day marketers see advertisement as a medium to damage the image of their competitors and their products. This indeed, is an undesirable and an immoral practice. Instead of speaking about their own products, these marketers speak about the drawbacks (often without any basics) of the competing products. People watching TV advertisements would notice that there has always been an advertisement war between the marketers of different consumer goods. A few such cases are given below.

1. Parachute Coconut Oil vs. V.V.D. Gold

Sometime back, the producer of V.V.D Gold Coconut Oil claimed in their TV advertisement that only their products were superior and the one sold in blue colour bottles (the reference was to Parachute coconut oil) was suitable only for un-natural hair. 2. Tata Salt vs. Captain Cook

Tata salt was first iodised (碘处理) salt marketed by an Indian Company. It has been enjoying a good and steady market. Captain Cook, another producer of iodised salt, who entered the market later, had to adopt some strategy to get control of the market. The TV advertisement of Captain Cook stressed on „Free flow‟ of their salt when transferred to a container. The producer of Tata Salt retaliated (报复) by saying that the claim of Captain Cook was a trick and those who were quality conscious should deal with it with caution. 3. Pepsi vs. Coca Cola

Coca Cola was selected as the official soft drink for the Wills World Cricket 1996. When the cricket series was on, the marketers of Pepsi constantly advertised on TV. Their advertisement

13

gave the idea that the cricketers preferred only Pepsi and as a matter of fact there was nothing official about it.

4. Horlicks vs. Complan

Sometime back, the TV advertisement of Complan, a health drink directly attacked Horlicks, which has been in the market for several decades. The claim of Complan was that their brand (which according to them was Brand C) has a higher percentage of ingredients compared to Brand H (reference was nothing but to Horlicks).

The above examples clearly show how the technique of advertisement is misused by some marketers to ruin the image of their competitors. This, certainly, is not a healthy trend.

Any marketer should only speak about his products and not about his competitors‟ products. The awareness of consumers has certainly increased over the years and they are no longer easily taken in. There are many consumer products like salt, oil, shaving blades etc. But one thing for sure is that offering the same product in a different container will not make the product different. Mass media like Radio, Television and newspaper should not allow advertisements that tell lies. Legal regulations, in this regard, should also be made stricter.

Han Xu,17:

Personally, I think that Wi-Fi coverage is not a good thing. Everyone would agree that not all information on the Internet is reliable. Students would be likely to come across awful things like false information, even violence and fraud, on the school Wi-Fi network. It would have a bad influence on the growth of students, and may even lead to more serious problems.

Recently the Ministry of Education released a statement encouraging middle schools to provide Wi-Fi coverage for students. The statement has sparked a heated debate.

Personally, I‟m opposed to it. Although students can make good use of the Internet in study, it‟s hard to prevent them from using the Internet for recreation. Since nowadays many students are addicted to surfing the Internet, they need a digital detox break at school. Otherwise, they would be distracted easily. Moreover, the excessive use of the network may weaken students‟ ability to solve problems themselves. Students in the modern age tend to search for ready answers online instead of thinking independently. Last but not least, school networks make for the rapid spread of unsafe information on campus, which poses a threat to the normal life of both teachers and students.

To sum up, school Wi-Fi coverage shouldn‟t be put into practice in a gesture to ensure a peaceful and secure school environment.

Recently the Ministry of Education released a statement encouraging middle schools to provide WiFi coverage for students. The statement has sparked a heated debate.

Personally, I‟m in favor of it. All of us have come across such occasions when we want to search for some information but it isn‟t available in the textbooks. In most cases we have to wait until we go home, but what if we have WiFi coverage on campus? A library of information is just

a click away. Moreover, students can go online to acquire knowledge for themselves, thus enhancing their ability of independent learning, critical thinking and self-discipline. Still, others may be of the opinion that students may use the Internet for fun. However, with modern technology, we can easily ban some websites to exclude the possibility that some students use the Internet improperly.

So what matters is that we should educate students to use the Internet in an appropriate way, thus turning it into a useful tool that serves us best. 英语听力试题原文 Text 1

I grew up in a small town until I was 18 and then moved to a big city, so I have experienced the good and bad sides of both. I never thought that I would like living in a big city, but I was

wrong. After ten years of living in one, I can‟t imagine ever living in a small town again. Surely small towns and big cities both have some problems in terms of transport. In a small town, you have to own a car to make life comfortable. You can‟t get around without one because there isn‟t any kind of public transport. Big cities generally have heavy traffic and expensive parking, but there you have a choice of taking public transport, which is cheaper than driving. So, if you don‟t have a car, you‟d better live in the city. I also love the exciting life in big cities. I can always enjoy a lot of films, concerts, and other wonderful shows. However, these things are not common in small towns. The final thing I like about large cities is that you can meet different kinds of people. I think that living in an area where everyone was just like me would quickly become dull. Of course, safety should be considered, and that‟s one area where small towns are better than big cities. Still, I would rather be a bit more careful and live in a large city than to feel safe but dull.
