internationa1 space station allows astronauts to live in space for extended amounts of time, enabling them to explore the outside universe and conduct many experiments. however, nothing like that exists for our oceans, and thanks to the high water pressure, ocean researchers are able to explore what lies undersea for very short periods of time.they are therefore never able to fully explore the deep inside areas of our oceans. however, if french architect jacques rougerie has his way , that will change soon.jacques has designed a ship that will allow researchers to spend a long period of time observing the sea life and conducting experiments. the huge l67ft. ship, named sea orbiter, consists of two areasone above the water where the scientists and crew will live, and a lower pressurized deck (甲板), where scientists will be able to spend as much time as they wish. since it is powered by sea currents and wind, he expects it to drift (漂流) along the oceans slowly, taking about two years to circumvent the globe.jacques will make their life as comfortable as possible in the ship. besides being equipped with the latest sailing tools and communication equipment, the ship will also have a gym, a television and a dvd player! and these guys will not be eating freeze-dried food like astronauts. instead, jacques, an accomplished chef, plans on cooking them delicious meals every day.the biggest problem to this giant ship is the cost, which is expected to be over $500 millionper ship! however, jacques, who strongly believes that the secrets of our oceans may be the key to solving global warming and a vital supply for food and medicine in the future, is confident he will be able to convince governments all over the world to help out, and expects to start construction on not one, but four or five of these amazing ships soon!56. why cant ocean researchers explore the deep oceans for a long time? a. because they cant stand the high water pressure. b. because its too cold in deep ocean. c. because time for experiments is too limited. d. because its dangerous to observe the sea life.57. the underlined word “circumvent ” probably means .a. fly away b. go around c. travel through d. move into58. from the fourth paragraph we can learn that .a. jacques intends to design the ship mainly for sightseeing and travelingb. living a comfortable life helps to do the ocean research quicklyc. its much more expensive to eat freeze-dried foodd. researchers on jacques ship will live more comfortably than astronauts59. in jacques opinion, which of the following is not the purpose of the undersea research?a. to find supply for food in the future. b. to find supply for medicine in the future.c. to draw governments attention to the construction of the ship.d. to solve the global warming. b there are two kinds of people in the world. those of the first kind are born idlers (游手好闲者), taking interest in nothing. it seems what they live for is to pass time idly. they simply dont know why they have to do so, nor will they bother to ask . the other kind are those who take things seriously and never wish to idle away their life. but only a part of the second group are eager enough to make success. all the others fail to make enough effort to make their dreams come true. why do things so happen to them? what are the reasons? i later find out that some people are determined. they are “igniters” that catch fire of their own, giving light and heat. but thats not the case with others. they may be fuels but not igniters. as pieces of wood or coal, they need a match or a lighter to make them burn so that their energy can be released to give off light and heat. the majority of people need some igniter to light them. thus igniter becomes a must for those people to succeed. unless a suitable igniter comes their way, they will always remain idle like cold unused firewood or coal. fortunately, such an igniter is not difficult to meet. one may find it in an instructive book, a film story, a few words of a close friend, some advice of a good teacher, a pleasant journey, or an unexpected love. any of these, coming at the right time, can serve as an igniter to start ones enthusiasm for learning or for a better career, to turn him from a passive state of waiting to an active state of pursuing, to lend him strength to go ahead bravely. in that case, what he has prepared for years will be quickly turned into fruitful reality. such an igniter may turn up of itself, but most likely we have to find it ourselves. never let a chance slide away, for it is the key to your success.60. according to the text, “_” take things seriously, but may not be able to succeed. a. idlers b. ignitersc. fuelsd. lighters61. according to the writer, what do most people definitely need to succeed? a. storing a lot of energy. b. great interest in everything. c. an igniter coming at the right time.d. wonderful dreams about a bright future.62. the writer writes the article to _. a. describe two kinds of peopleb. encourage people to find chances to succeed c. praise those who work hardd. make fun of idlers c the uk has a well-respected higher education system and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world. but to those who are new to it all, sometimes it can be confusing. october is usually the busiest month in the college calendar. universities have something called freshers week for their newcomers. its 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, the prospect (前景) of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nerve-wracking (令人头痛的). 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. dont rush into anything that youll regret for the next three years. here are some top advice 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 slices of toast can give you a head start in making friends. be sociable. the more active you are, the more likely youll be to meet new people than if youre someone who never leaves their room. bring a doorstop. keep your door open when youre in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that youre friendly. so with a bit of clever planning and effort, freshers week can give you a great start to your university life and soon youll be passing on your experience to next years new recruits. 63. the underlined word “recruits” in the last paragraph refers to _. a. coursesb. freshers c. neighborsd. challenges64. we can infer from the 4th paragraph that _. a. the newcomers usually miss the days living at home b. most of the students in the uk spend three years in universities c. many freshers are worried about how to fit university life d. all the new students will make new friends and join certain clubs65. why does the author suggest having wine glasses and snacks handy？ a. to pass the busy university life. b. to help make friends with other freshers. c. to show yourself a drinker as others. d. to pass the time in a happy way. 66. the main purpose of the passage is to _. a. tell the newcomers how to make a new start in universities b. introduce something about higher education system of the uk c. discuss something about the freshers week in the uk d. advise the freshmen how to behave well in the beginning dlook closely at your hands - are they clean? it doesnt matter how many times you wash your hands, theyre still crowded with microbes, which are also called germs or bacteria. microbes are everywhere. but dont worry most microbes dont harm you, and many actually help you stay alive. now, scientists say the microbes that live on our hands could be useful in a surprising way: fighting crime. when police visit the scene of a crime, they often look for fingerprints to try to identify the criminal. but according to a recent study, investigators could even use microbes to help break a criminal case. every person has his or her own set of microbes that live on their hands, according to scientists at the university of colorado. that means the mix of different kinds of microbes on everybodys hand is un
