Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology found 20 healthy men and asked them to walk as straight as possible to a target 60 metres away at normal speed. Each man had to walk on white paper fixed flat to the floor wearing wet colored socks. The footprints revealed that all walked in a winding rather than a straight line. Researchers found that people readjust the direction of walking every few seconds. The amount of the winding differed from subject to subject. This suggests that none of us can walk in a strictly straight line. We walk in a winding way mainly because of a slight structural or functional imbalance of our limbs (四肢). Although we may start walking in a straight line, several steps afterwards we have changed direction.Eyesight helps us to correct the direction of walking and leads us to the target. Your ears also help you walk. After turning around a lot with your eyes closed, you can hardly stand still, let alone walk straight.Its all because your ears help you balance. Inside your inner ear there is a structure which contains liquids. On the sides of the organ are many tiny hair-like structures that move around as the liquid flows. When you spin (旋转) the liquid inside also spins. The difference is that when you stop, the liquid continues to spin for a while. Dizziness (眩晕) is the result of these nerves in your ear. When you open your eyes, although your eyesight tells you to walk in a straight line, your brain will trust your ears more, thus you walk in a curved line.28. The experiment held in Japan proved that _.A. the participants kept readjusting their direction of walkingB. all the participants had a good sense of directionC. the experiment was done in different waysD. none of the participants finished the 60 metres29. What helps to readjust our walking direction?A. Limbs. B. Ears. C. Eyes. D. Footprints.30. The underlined word “subject” in Para. 1 refers to _.A. a person with a functional imbalanceB. a person chosen to be studied in an experimentC. the subject one studies at schoolD. the direction of walking31. The purpose of writing the article is to _.A. prove that ears can help us to walk straightB. explain why we can hardly walk in a strictly straight lineC. point out the importance of noticing everyday scienceD. tell us if we try, we can walk in a straight lineDAlmost every machine with moving parts has wheels, yet no one knows exactly when the first wheel was invented or what it was used for. We do know, however, that they existed over 5,500 years ago in ancient Asia.The oldest known transport wheel was discovered in 2002 in Slovenia. It is over 5,100 years old. Evidence suggests that wheels for transport didnt become popular for a while, though. This could be because animals did a perfectly good job of carrying farming tools and humans around.But it could also be because of a difficult situation. While wheels need to roll on smooth surfaces（光滑表面）, roads with smooth surfaces werent going to be built until there was plenty of demand for them. Finally, road surfaces did become smoother, but this difficult situation appeared again a few centuries later. There had been no important changes in wheel and vehicle design before the arrival of modern road design.In the mid-1700s, a Frenchman came up with a new design of roada base layer (层) of large stones covered with a thin layer of smaller stones. A Scotsman improved on this design in the 1820s and a strong, lasting road surface became a reality. At around the same time, metal hubs (the central part of a wheel) came into being, followed by the pneumatic tyre(充气轮胎) in 1846. Alloy(合金) wheels were invented in 1967, sixty years after the appearance of tarmacked roads (柏油路). As wheel design took off, vehicles got faster and faster.32. What might explain why transport wheels didnt become popular for some time?A. Few knew how to use transport wheels.B. Humans carried farming tools just as well.C. Animals were a good means of transport.D. The existence of transport wheels was not known.33. What do we know about road design from the passage?A. It was easier than wheel design.B. It improved after big changes in vehicle design.C. It was promoted by fast-moving vehicles.D. It provided conditions for wheel design to develop.34. How is the last paragraph mainly developed?A. By giving examples. B. By making comparisons.C. By following time order. D. By making classifications(分类).35. What is the passage mainly about?A. The beginning of road design. B. The development of transport wheels.C. The history of public transport. D. His invention of fast-moving vehicles.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? _36_We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. _37_ Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. _38_ If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they 【来源：全,品中&高*考+网】are more likely to become dull and unintelligent._39_ According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “_40_”.A. A healthy body contributes to ones intelligence.B. Parents should also be careful about what they say to young children.C. What people want to express is like this.D. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent.E.
