of Liberty is the icon of America and the Eiffel Tower the most featured land mark of France the sail shaped Sydney Opera House can best symbolize a continental country in the South Hemisphere Australia As one of the world s most recognizable buildings the Opera House draws some 7 5 million visitors each year But its designer Danish architect Jorn Utzon never saw it finished in his lifetime He passed away on November 29 2008 aged 90 Utzon s legendary connection with Sydney started in 1956 when he read about the Opera House competition in a Swedish architecture magazine He spent six months designing a building with sail like roofs their geometry 表面形状 he said came from the sections of an orange He won the competition and began work on the great structure But in a storm of controversy 争议 over budget overrun 超支 and delays Utzon quit the project in1966 He never returned to Australia to see his revolutionary concept as a finished building The real loss in the Sydney Opera House project is not the huge cost overrun It is the controversy it created that kept Utzon from building more masterpieces wrote Bent Flyvbjerg a professor of planning at Aalborg University in Denmark in Harvard Design Magazine in 2005 In recent years Australian organizations tried to heal 弥补 the breach 裂痕 In 2002 Utzon was invited to design the inside renovations 修 缮 that would bring the building closer to his original vision His son Jan traveled to Australia to carry out the work And in 2003 Utzon received an honorary doctorate 博士头衔 from the University of Sydney Jan took his place at the ceremony When he was accepting the honorary doctorate in 2003 Jan said the fact that his father had never visited the Opera House did not mean he had not experienced the building As its creator he just has to close his eyes to see it he said 56 According to Bent Flyvbjerg the Sydney Opera House project A failed to reach the standard its designer had set B ruined Utzon s future as an even greater architecture C had to go through renovation again and again D earned Utzon both reputation and honors 57 Which is NOT true according to the article A The Sydney Opera House cost a lot more than the budget B An honorary doctorate was offered to Utzon as a friendly gesture C Utzon s idea of the Sydney Opera House came from the sections of an orange D There was a huge controversy over the structure of the Sydney Opera House 58 From the passage we can see that Utzon A was the designer so he knew its every detail by heart B hated to see his design changed and finished by others C was willing to visit the opera house but wasn t offered a chance D was heartbroken and didn t want to see the building for himself B An old English saying goes Cold hands warm heart It is generally used to describe how a cool outlook often disguises 伪装 a kind heart However Yale University researchers seem to disapprove of the old saying They found how physically warm you are has a direct relation to how nice you are to people To test the theory the scientists carried out two studies involving a total of 94 undergraduates For the first they gave half the unwitting 不知情的 participants a glass of hot or cold coffee and then asked what they thought of a stranger after a brief meeting They found that holding a hot cup of coffee led people to judge the stranger to be a warmer person in terms of generosity and kindness compared to a group of people who held a cup of iced coffee In the second study the researchers had people who thought they were evaluating a product hold either hot pads 护垫 or cold pads Then they give the participants a choice of reward for participating in the study either a gift for a friend or a reward for themselves The study found that people who held the hot pad were more likely to choose the gift for a friend and people who held the cold pack were more likely to choose the reward for themselves It appears that the effect of physical temperature is not just on how we see others it affects our own behavior as well said Professor John Bargh a psychologist who carried out the study Physical warmth can make us see others as warmer people but also causes us to be warmer more generous and trusting as well The researchers believe the effect relates to childhood when emotional warmth given by a parent was often accompanied by the physical warmth of being held or hugged 59 The article was written mainly to tell us that A scientists must use data to back up their findings B if people are physically warm they will probably be nice to others C what kind of person you are determines your attitude towards others D people s appearances will disguise what they think in their minds 60 How will the physical warmth cause the participants to be towards others A Generous curious and merciful B Generous trusting and loyal C Trusting friendly and generous D Kind thoughtful and selfish 61 The Yale researchers tested the theory by A asking participants to evaluate certain products B conducting a survey among 94 undergraduates C asking participants what they thought of a stranger after a brief meeting D finding out participants reactions to others when holding either hot or cold things 62 What can we conclude from the passage A Physical temperature plays a role in both how we see others and how we behave B The participants holding the hot pads preferred to choose the reward for themselves C We shouldn t judge people just by their cool outlook D How emotionally warm you are directly relates to your childhood experiences C Not everyone goes to university after high school graduation Some work others join the military and an increasing number worldwide are emulating 效 仿 the Brits taking a gap year to travel or do community service in their own countries or abroad They re studying sharks off the Australian coast building schools in Mexico and learning Spanish or Italian The concept of a gap year may not be new but the recent surge 涌现 of interest certainly is says California s Campolindo High School college counselor Gwenly Carrel Some students are delaying their admissions Others who didn t get into the college of their choice are taking a year to explore new frontiers before reapplying Students are choosing to take a breather instead of just stepping onto the treadmill 跑步机 Carrel says Kids are thinking I m not sure what I m going to do They re going and exploring some of their interests They re getting an experience they can take to the school they finally go to It s an idea actively encouraged by college administrators Princeton University just launched a bridge year program that will send 10 percent of its incoming class to do volunteer work abroad starting in 2009 Princeton President Shirley Tilghman described it as cleansing 清理 the interest of high school giving them a year to regroup And Harvard not only offers delays but its admissions department has spent the last 30 years urging incoming students to take a gap year Many speak of their year away as a life altering 改变生活的 experience or a turning point says Harvard admissions director Marlyn McGrath Lewis Many come to college with new visions of their academic plans their extracurricular 课外的 pursuits and the career possibilities they observed in their year away Some 50 to 70 Harvard freshmen take the gap option each year Those numbers are likely to shoot upward as Princeton s ideas sweep through the Ivy League and are close to an already fast growing phenomenon 63 What is the main idea of the passage A Princeton University is the first to launch a bridge year B Many high school graduates like studying sharks off the coast C The concept of a gap year is popular with high school graduates D Nowadays most high school graduates don t like to go to college 64 Who will most probably be interested in the passage except A primary school teachers B parents of high school graduates C high school graduates D college administrators 65 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason why some high school graduates want to take a year away before going to college A They want to get some experience of their interests B They want to get enough money to go to college C They want to explore new fields they are interested in D They are not sure what their future career might be 66 By saying Students are choosing to take a breather instead of just stepping onto the treadmill Carrel means that A the concept of a gap year is like new fresh air B college administrators support the idea of a gap year C students are taking a break and not rushing to continue their education D this gap year will help students relax and prepare them better for the stressful university life D If you have a fever headache and runny nose you might go to Google and type in the words flu symptoms to see whether you ve come down with the disease Google knows that you might do something like that and it also knows which state you re in if you are in the United States Now it s putting that information together in a tool that could find out flu outbreaks faster than traditional systems currently in use according to CNN report It is called Google Flu Trends What s exciting about Flu Trends is that it lets anybody doctors health officials moms with sick children learn about the current flu activity level in their own state based on the data that s coming in this week said Jeremy Ginsberg the lead engineer who developed the tool The tool operates on the idea that there s likely to be a flu outbreak in states where flu related search terms are currently popular To test the accuracy of the data Google compared its figures against statistics filed 提交 over the past five years by the US Centers for Disease Control It has a network of 1 500 doctors across the US who provide weekly reports on the number of patients complaining of flu like symptoms We found we could highly accurately estimate what the flu activity levels would be in those years Ginsberg said They also found that the Google statistics which can be gathered daily were up to two weeks ahead of the government s data The government s data took time to collect because it came from so many doctors The ability to speed up the response of health services could prove invaluable when a serious outbreak happens The resul
