19、 women during the colonial period and the early history of the newly formed United States. Lacking the right to vote and absent from the seats of power, women were not considered an important force in history. During these centuries, women remained invisible in history books.Throughout the nineteent

20、h century, this lack of visibility continued, despite the efforts of female authors writing about women. These writers, like most of their male counterparts, were amateur (业余的) historians. Their writings were celebratory in nature, and they were uncritical in their selection and use of sources. Duri

21、ng the nineteenth century, however, certain feminists showed a keen sense of history by keeping records of activities in which women were engaged. National, regional, and local womens organizations compiled accounts of their doings. Personal correspondence, newspaper clippings, and souvenirs were sa

22、ved and stored. These sources form the core of the two greatest collections of womens history in the United Statesone at the Elizabeth and Arthur Schlesinger Library at Radeliffe College, and the other the Sophia Smith Collection at Smith College. Such sources have provided valuable materials for la

23、ter generations of historians.Despite the gathering of more information about ordinary women during the nineteenth century, most of the writing about women adjusted to the “great women” theory of history, just as much of mainstream American history concentrated on “great men”. To demonstrate that wo

24、men were making significant contributions to American life, female authors singled out women leaders and wrote biographies, or else important women produced their autobiographies. Most of these leaders were involved in public life as reformers, activists working for womens right to vote, or authors,

25、 and were not representative at all of the great mass of ordinary women. The lives of ordinary people continued, generally, to be untold in the American histories being published.1、What does the passage mainly discuss?AThe role of literature in early American histories.BThe place of American women i

But a New Jersey-based company, called TerraCycle, has taken on th

30、e challenge, and has come up with a way to recycle millions of cigarette butts and turn them into industrial plastic products. Its aim is to take items that people normally consider impossible to recycle, and then use science to figure out a way to do just that.Despite the increase in anti-smoking a

31、ds and messaging over the past 20 years, global sales of cigarettes increased by 4 percent, and a whole lot of those cigarette butts are ending up as trash, which can surely pollute the surrounding environment.So how do you go about turning all those poisonous ends into something useful? TerraCycle

32、does this by first breaking them down into separate parts. They mix the remaining materials, such as the tobacco and the paper, with other kinds of rubbish, and use it on non-agricultural land, such as golf courses. The filters (过滤嘴) are a little harder. To recycle these, TerraCycle first makes them

33、 clean and cuts them into small pieces, and then combines them with other recycled materials, making them into liquid for industrial plastic products.They now have more than 3,000 cigarette recycling bins in nine countries around the world. Theyre also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest

You are comfortably settled down, with yo

41、ur hat and heavy coat in your lap. You must stand up to let them pass. You are proud of yourself-control after they have settled into their seats.Well, what now . God, one of them is up again. He forgot to go to the men s room, and once more you have to stand up, hanging on to your hat and coat to l

42、et him pass. Now, that is a pain in the neck.Another, well-known to us all, is the person sitting behind you in the movies. His mouth is full of popcorn (爆米花); he is chewing (嚼) loudly, or talking between bites to friends next to him. None of them remain still. Up and down, back and forth, they go f

43、or another bag of popcorn, or something to drink.Then, there is the man sitting next to you at lunch, smoking.

44、 let him. You are reading the newspaper and he gets closer so that he can read the paper with you. He may even turn the paper to the next page before you are ready for it.We also call such a person a rubber neck, always getting close to where it does not belong, like neighbors who watch all your vis

This outdated era is slowly dr

49、awing to a close as the industry catches up with the artificial-intelligence ( AI) revolution.Eric Topol, an expert in heart disease and enthusiast for digital medicine, thinks AI will be particularly useful for such tasks as examining images, observing heart traces for abnormalities or turning doct

50、ors words into patient records. It will be able to use masses of data to work out the best treatments, and improve workflows in hospitals. In short, AI is set to save time, lives and money.The fear some people have is that AI will be used to deepen the assembly-line culture of modem medicine. If it

51、gives a “ gift of time” to doctors, they argue that this bonus should be used to extend consultations, rather than simply speeding through them more efficiently.That is a fine idea, but as health swallows an ever-bigger share of national wealth, greater efficiency is exactly what is needed, at least

52、 so far as governments and insurers are concerned. Otherwise, rich societies may fail to cope with the needs of ageing and growing populations. An extra five minutes spent chatting with a patient is costly as well as valuable. The AI revolution will also enable managerial accountants to adjust and e
