He was there to _38_ to hundreds of scientists-the men and women who build the first atomic bombs under his _39_. Exploded over the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9, 1945, those bombs had just _40_ the most destructive war in human history-and _41_ the face of war foreverThe world would soon learn what they already knew. Oppenheimer warned: Nuclear weapons were surprisingly cheap and easy to make, once you _42_how. Soon he said, other countries would be making them, too. Their power of destruction-“already incomparably greater than that of any other weapons”- will grow, he declared.

So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda eats only one particular type of bamboo. Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice. A kind of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet. The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season. Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries such as France and Britain, people eat foods with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life. 65. We can infer from the text that humans and animals _. A. depend on one sense in choosing food B. are not satisfied with their food C. choose food in similar ways D. eat entirely different food66. Certain animals change their choices of food when _. A. the season changes B. the food color changes C. they move to different places D. they are attracted by different smells67. We can learn from the last paragraph that _. A. food is chosen for a good reason B. French and British food is good C. some people have few choices of food D. some people care little about healthy diet CIll be the first to admit that I am a technophobe(对技术有恐惧感的人).Who would have guessed that a website would help repay a 20-year-old loan? Ill always remember my last day at school. My best friend, Jenny, had organized a party in the Sixth Form Common Room. Jenny asked me to go to the supermarket with her to buy all the snacks. “Im really looking forward to this party, Stingy(小气),” she said. Everyone called me Stingy instead of Debbie because they thought I didnt like to spend money. Actually, it was true.“Theres lots of money in the kitty. Lets go crazy！” Going crazy meant buying enough snacks to feed an army. It came to19.90, which was a lot of money in 1982. Jenny gave me a guilty look. “Ive left the kitty money in the common room. Can you pay and Ill give you back the money?”“Sure,” I replied, trying to look relaxed. “Neither a lender or a borrower be” was my motto but I didnt want to look stingy. I gave 20 to the impatient shop assistant.Well, the party was a great success. So great that I completely forgot about my loan until I was flying to America the next day. I was going to live with my uncles family until I started university. I tried to get in touch with Jenny but her family had moved. My 20 was lost. Until Id heard about a website called Friends Reunited which helped people contact old school friends. My husband helped me log on and find my school. There she was, Jenny Frost. “Im now married，with a beautiful daughter called Debbie. Does anyone know how to get in touch with Debbie Stingy Jones? I still owe her 20!We met two months later and the 20 was returned, plus interest of course. After all, Im a bank manager now, so loans are my business. 68.

How did Debbie get her money at last? A. Her husband found Jenny.B. Jenny had a website on the Internet. C. Debbie met Jenny. D. Debbie put a message on the Friends Reunited website. 70.

C. forgot her best friends at school until she saw the Friends Reunited website. D. was forgetful about the money. D A Band plays in Lumley Park every Sunday afternoon. I often attend these open-air concerts if the weather is fine, because I find it a restful ways of passing time, and because the band plays many kinds of music: dance music, marching music, anything with a tune that you can whistle; you know what I mean.One Sunday, there was a blind girl in the front row of the audience, just behind the band-leader. She was about fourteen or fifteen years of age, I should think. She had been sitting down until about halfway through the programme, when the band started to play The Blue Danube（蓝色多瑙河） by Strauss. Id never heard them play this particular piece before; and there was something magical about the way they played it then. They had only played a few bars when this blind girl stood up and began waving her arms about in time to the music, just as the band-leader himself was doing.After a while, I could see that more and more members of the band were watching the blind girl instead of the band-leader. And the leader must have noticed this himself, because he turned round and watched her, and saw that she was keeping perfect time (合拍子). He was a very thoughtful man who I took my hat off to. He moved to one side little by little so that the band could see the blind girl better, and after a while he stopped conducting altogether. The band knew the piece quite well, of course, so things werent likely to go seriously wrong. But she kept time beautifully, and she made it clear when she wanted certain passages (音符，音节) to be loud or soft, just as the band-leader himself had done. Since then, to be quite honest, Ive never heard The Blue Danube played better anywhere.I have seldom heard an audience clap more loudly than that audience, when the music was over. I should think they must have heard the noise on the other side of the town. When the blind girl sat down, even from where I was sitting I could see that
