Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that

11、, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk.These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of power compared with the 1,000MW-plus from a conventional reactor. They will draw on modular manufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk

12、, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors (AMRs)most of which will not be commercial until the 2030sare critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind.“The physics hasnt changed. Its about much cleverer d

13、esign that offers much-needed flexibility in terms of operation,” said Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the UK.Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011, safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacl

14、e today is economic. In western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluoto in Finland. All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used at Hinkley Point. All are running years

15、late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates.The UK, which opened the worlds first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956, is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy

16、security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear powers ability to restore confidence.However, the countrys agreement with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Pointwhich together will generate 3.2GW of electricityhas come under sever

17、e criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it still sees nuclear power as vital to the countrys future energy mix. Small reactors, it believes, have the potential to generate much-needed power from the 2030s.A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, p

18、romised up to 56m in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lead in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibill

19、ion-dollar export market for British engineering companies.1、Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)?AAMRs produce more power than traditional reactorsBSmall in scale, AMRs rose more safety risksCSo far, most AMRs have not been put into use yetDGovernments prefer en

20、ergy of solar and wind to that of AMRs2、In paragraph 5, the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the US to _.Aprove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety concern.Bshow that the construction of nuclear power plants cost more that the budget available.Cindicate the construction

21、of nuclear plants are slow in speed.Dpoint out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology.3、What can be inferred from the passage?ASome people have lost confidence in the development of nuclear plantsBThe UK government seeks to reduce the negative impact of nuclear power on it

22、s economy.CThe plan to build two power plants in Hinkley Point has been desertedDa kind costs for small modular reactors would be higher relative to large nuclear reactors.4、Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage?ABritain counts on nuclear energy to keep lights onBTraditi

24、to be responsible for global warming.Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence (肠胃气胀) contains no methane and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who produce large quantities of the harmful gas.While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a b

25、illowing smokestack, pushing out carbon dioxide, farm animals passing wind contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions in some countries.“Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia are from enteric methane from cattle and sheep,” said Athol Klieve, a senior research

26、 scientist with the greensland state government. “And if you look at another country such as New Zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, they are actually up around 50 percent,” he said.Researchers say the bacteria also make the digestive process much more efficient and could potenti

27、ally save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers. But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate the bacteria before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.Another group of scientists, meanwhile, have suggested Australians should farm fewer c

28、attle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos. And about 20 percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.Its low in fat, its got high protein levels and it is very clean in the sense that basically it is free-range(放养的) animal,” said Peter Ampt of the Univers

29、ity of New South Wales institute of environmental studies.1、Scientists intend to put bacteria into cattle and sheep _.Ato help Australian farmers to earn more moneyBto prevent them from sending out harmful gasesCso that they can protect Australian ecosystemDso that they can make full use of special

32、）Donald Trump was born in Queens, a borough of New York City. He was the fourth child. He had two brothers and two sisters. By his own telling, young Donald often created trouble in school. So when he was 13 years old, his parents sent him to a military-style school.Trump went on to college first at

33、 Fordham University in New York, and then at the University of Pennsylvania. He earned a degree in economics. He was also already investing in real estate. After he graduated, Trump quickly returned to New York City and his career.In time, he became the head of the family business. He re-named it th

34、e Trump Organization. As its president, Trump developed and put his name on luxury buildings, casinos, hotels, and golf courses around the world. Later, he became linked to the entertainment industry, too. He became a part owner of beauty pageants, hosted a television show, and wrote a book about ho

35、w to succeed in business.During these years, Trump also married three times and divorced twice. The media wrote especially about his first and second marriages because he openly had a relationship with his second wife while he was married to his first. In 2005, he married Melania Knauss, a former mo

36、del from Slovenia. She is only the second first lady who was not born in the United States. The first was Louisa Adams, who came from Britain in 1801.But, until he officially entered the 2016 campaign as a Republican candidate, few linked him to politics.Trump is unusual among past presidents becaus

37、e he had never worked in the government before. Nor has Trump served in the military. Only Presidents Taylor, Grant, andEisenhower had no previous government experience; however, they had all been generals.Trump is the oldest person ever to take office. He was 70 years old when he was sworn in.He is

38、 also one of therichest.And Trump is unusual in how he communicates with the public. As president, he continues to use Twitter to communicate his thoughts directly to anyone who wants to follow him.While the long-term effects of Trumps presidency are not yet known, he will likely be remembered in pa

39、rt for his direct and unscripted style of communication.1、Donald Trump is quite a different American president ever because _.Aonly he has never entered politics beforeBhe is the first to use the modern social media Twitter to speakChe is the richest president everDonly his wife wasnt born in the US

42、 her make-believe little friend and Ill never forget the words she said, even though it was imagined.She said, “Suzies in the corner because shes not been very good.

44、 cannot reach. And she doesnt know how to fold towels. I dont have thetimeto teach. I have a lot of work to do and a big house to keep clean.

49、himself seated across from a new friend in the school cafeteria. “Have you ever thought about having plastic surgery?” the friend asks.“Dude, this is after plastic surgery. It takes a lot of work to look this good,” Auggie says, running a hand through his hair. In other words, what could be painfull

50、y depressing turns out to hold lurking(潜藏的) reserves of humour, which is pretty much the story of Wonder.Auggie, played by Jacob Tremblay, was born with a facial difference, and even after multiple operations, his looks shock his classmates. As he adapts from homeschooling to a new school community,

51、 he encounters far worse than that lunchtime sceneone nasty bully(横行霸道者) says hed kill himself if he looked like Auggiebut he never fully loses heart.The movie is an adaptation of the 2012 novel by R.J.Palacio, which has sold 6 million copies in North America and launched an antibullying campaign, C

52、hoose Kind. Palacio has said she got the idea for the story when her young son began crying at the sight of a girl with a facial difference in an ice cream shop. She took her kids out of the shop, but later regretted her reaction. “What I should have done is simply turned to the little girl and star

53、ted up a conversation and shown my kids that there was nothing to be afraid of,” she said.Tremblay, 11, who broke out opposite Brie Larson in the 2015 drama Room, has more than a few things in common with Auggie. “We both love Star Wars, we have awesome families, and we love our dogs.” But Tremblay

54、thinks we all can find something in common with the boy. “Everyones like Auggie in one very important way: we want to be accepted and treated equally and with kindness.”Julia Roberts, who plays Auggies mother, became interested in the part because of her own children, “I read it with my kids and fel

55、l so in love with it,” she says of the novel. “This book is such a beautiful and gentle introduction into all kinds of topics, including bullying and intolerance and fear, and what fear makes young people do sometimes.”Both actors have some familiarity with the subject. “I was picked on quite a bit

56、as a young person,” Roberts says, though she wont say what for. “Even as a 50-year-old mother of three, its not a path I like to go up and down.” Tremblay reveals a bit more. “I have been picked on,” he says, “because Im kind of short for me age. I told my parents, and thats one of the best things y

57、ou can do, because my mom said would never want me to carry negative thoughts on my shoulders alone.”The most challenging parts of filming, says Tremblay, were moments in which he had to cry. Tenderhearted audience members will likely shed tears of their ownespecially during scenes between Auggie an

58、d his mom, who repeatedly reassures her son that he is worthy of love. But the movie also has its fair share of hijinks(喧闹): for every tear-filled moment, there is a lightsaber battle or silly science project to lighten the mood. This mixture of pity and humor, says Roberts, “was intrinsic(固有的) in t

59、he writing in the novel.” But she credits writer-director Stephen Chbosky with translating that balance into visual terms.As much as the movie impresses the viewer with compassion for the underdogs, it also finds a way to sympathize with the bullies. “I would say to try to take a moment to be consci

60、ous of why a person that is bullying somebody is behaving that way,” says Roberts, “After all”, she adds, “Theres no child thats born bully.”1、How did Auggie respond to his friends question?AHe felt so embarrassed that he kept reserved.BHe flew off the handle the moment he heard it.CHe answered in a
