There is certainly a lot of energy in waves, he said.Scientists are working to use that energy to make electricity. Most waves are created when winds blow across the ocean. The wind starts out by making little ripples (涟漪), but if they keep on blowing, those ripples get bigger and bigger and turn into waves, Taylor said. Waves are one of natures ways of picking up energy and then sending it off on a journey. When waves come toward the shore, people can set up darns to block the water and send it through a large wheel called a turbine (涡轮机). The turbine can then power an electrical generator to produce electricity.The resource is huge, said Janet Swain of the Worldwatch Institute. We will never run out of wave power. Besides, wave energy does not create the same pollution as other energy sources, such as oil or coal. Oceans cover three-quarters of the Earths surface - that would make wave power seem ideal for creating energy throughout the world, though there are some weak points yet to overcome.Swain said that wave power still costs too much money. She also said that its effects on sea animals are still unknown. What is more, wave power could affect fishing and boat traffic.Traditional sources of energy like oil and gas may someday run out. Demand for energy to power our TVs and computers, drive our cars, and heat and cool our homes is rising rapidly throughout the world, Swain said. In the future when you turn on a light, an ocean wave could be providing the electricity!64. The writer uses the two questions at the beginning of the passage to _.A. test the readers knowledge about wavesB. draw the readers attention to the topicC. show Jamie Taylors importanceD. invite the readers to answer them65.

We can make better use of wave energy if we _.A. shorten its journey to thousands of homesB. build more small power stations on the oceansC. reduce the cost of turning it into electric powerD. quicken the steps of producing electricity67. It can be inferred that some day we might not worry about _.A. air pollution B. our boat traffic C. our power supply D. our supply of sea fishDIn 1837, the historian Carlyle made the first recorded use of the word queue (排队). He spoke of the French and their habit of standing in a queue. Forty years later Paris was the best place to wait in line.However, queuing became popular in Britain too. The Second World War was the golden age of queuing, and people joined any line in the hope that it was a queue for something to buy. This was the source of many Second World War jokes:Shopkeeper to customer: Excuse me, miss, are you pregnant (怀孕)?Customer: Well, I wasnt when I joined the queue.Today, according to research in America, we (in Britain) can spend up to 5 years of our lives queuing- as compared to twelve months looking for things we have lost. But things may be changing. Many people no longer have the patience to stand in a queue. The law of the jungle (丛林) has begun to operate at bus stops, with people using their arms to push others out of the way.One way to make life easier is to introduce queue management. Customers at supermarket cheese counters can now take a ticket with a number which appears on a screen when it is their turn. And while they wait for their number, they can do a bit of shopping.In some booking offices there is also a system telling customers how long they may have to wait before they are served.One of the latest technical progress is the use of an electronic scanner (电子识别器) which can read all the contents of your shopping basket or trolley in just a few seconds. If these become popular, queuing in supermarkets may become a thing of the past.But some people just like queuing. One man queued all night for Harrods famous January sale, and then returned home for breakfast at nine o clock the next morning without going into the shop.68. The joke in Paragraph 2 implies that the young woman _.A. has been waiting in the queue for a long timeB. doesnt need to stand in the queueC. enjoys standing in the queueD. has stood in the wrong line69. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. The British spend more time queuing than looking for lost things.B. The Americans criticized the British for their way of queuing.C. The British are always patient when they wait in line.D. People queue only when they want to buy something.70. The British try to solve the problem of queuing by all the following EXCEPT _.A. making a law to prevent queuingB. telling the customers the waiting timeC. using numbered tickets to put the customers in orderD. checking the price of the goods customers buy with a scanner71. We can infer from the passage that _.A. queue management doesnt work wellB. there is still queuing in EnglandC. we dont see much queuing in ParisD. the French like queuing more than the BritishEHOLIDAYSThe Bay Hotel.
