Comets (彗星) and meteors (流星) flying through the blackness were seen as signs from the gods. They were used to tell the future of human li

21、ves.In 2013, a meteorite shower hit an area in Russia. It injured around 1,200 people. In ancient times, this would have been a strange and terrible experience. Today, thought, science offers simple explanations for the occurrence (事件).Meteorites are small pieces of debris (碎片) that float around in

22、space. Sometimes, they come near a planet, such as Earth. When they enter our atmosphere, they often heat up and become very bright. This is whey they are sometimes called “fireballs”. They are usually made of metals, such as iron (铁), and other minerals (矿物). The Russian meteorites were stony, with

23、 iron making up 10 percent of them.Meteorite showers, such as that in Russia, happen when a large meteor enters the Earths atmosphere and, due to heat, breaks up into small parts. Most of these are very small smaller than a grain of sand and so dont even make it to the ground. But others can cause a

24、 lot of damage.The meteor in Russia weighed 10 tons when it entered our atmosphere, and broke up about 20-30 miles (30-50 km) above ground. The sky was filled with bright lights and loud noises.

The sun was probably the worlds first “clock”, except in the far north, where the Eskimos(爱斯基摩人) live. There, its dark most of the

28、 winter, and light most of the summer. But in most of the world, people have used the sun for a clock. Even today, if you dont have a clock, you still know that when the sun shines, its day, and when its dark, its night. The sun can also tell you if its morning, noon, or afternoon.People who live ne

29、ar the sea can tell time from the tides. In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.Seamen on a ship learn ho

30、w to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock.In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock. A sand clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry

31、 sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture, you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom part in exactly one hour. When the hourglass is turned over, the sand will take another hour to go back again.1According to(根据) the passage,

40、oods, from water bottles to car parts. We make plastic toys, toothbrushes, and shopping bags. Plastic is so useful that its hard to imagine life without it, but it has not been around that long.The first plastic was invented in 1869. Thats when American John Wesley Hyatt made a form of plastic from

41、a plant material called cellulose. Before long, his discovery was used to make combs, eyeglasses, buttons, and film.In the 1900s, petroleum products such as oil replaced cellulose. New kinds of plastic were discovered in the 1950s, and thats when the real boom began. People started to use plastic in

42、 many fields instead of the old materials. Plastics quickly replace paper, glass, metal, and wood in a growing number of products. In 1960, the United States made 6 billion pounds of plastic. By 1988, the output had grown to 50 billion pounds. These days, almost 10 percent of the oil America uses ev

43、ery year is turned into plastic. Thats 2 million barrels of oil a day.Most of the plastic ever made still exists. Unlike wood, metal, and paper, plastic does not break down easily. Some people think plastic will never break down. Others say it may take 500 or 1,000 years. No one knows for sure becau

44、se it has been around for too short a time. But if George Washington had used plastic water bottles in the 1700s, those bottles would probably still be around.Although plastic lasts a long time, we dont keep plastic products very long. We use them and throw them away. Only about 5 percent of plastic

45、 is recycled. A huge amount of it ends up floating in the ocean. Then seabirds, seals, turtles, whales and fish eat it. Scientists often find sea animals that have starved（饿）to death with their stomachs full of plastic. And every time it rains, more trash from city streets flushes into the sea. Much

46、 of that trash is plastic.What can we do about plastic? First, be aware. Oil takes millions of years to form. Should we use up this precious fuel to make flimsy shopping bags that are used once and thrown away? Should any animal pay for our convenience with its life? Each persons actions can make a

47、difference. Its time to act now.1What can we know about plastic?APlastic is now widely used in every area of our daily life.BAmerica holds the leading position in the world-wide use of plastic.CPlastic can last for more than 300 years and will never break down.DAbout 95% of plastic is used once and

48、then thrown away.2Which detail supports the idea that plastic can be dangerous?AAnimals starve to death after eating plastic.BMuch of that trash is plastic.CAbout 10 percent of the oil we use every year is made into plastic.DJohn Wesley Hyatt made the first plastic from cellulose.3The underlined wor

DNew PlasticF18、 Does heavy use of cell phones lead to a risk of cancer? This question has caused serious arguments for many years. A new stu

51、dy in rats now adds to those concerns. Its data linked long-term, intense exposure （强烈的暴露） to radiation （辐射） from cell phones with an increased risk of cancer in the heart or brain.The results have yet to be confirmed（确认）, the authors note. Moreover, they add, its not yet clear what the findings may

52、 mean in terms of human health.Indeed, although the rat study found a link between cell-phone radiation and cancer, it offers no clues to why such a link might exist, says Jonathan Samet. He teaches preventative medicine and directs the Institute for Global Health at the University of Southern Calif

53、ornia in Los Angeles. Still, he calls the new studys findings “important”. They could lead to studies looking into how cell-phone radiation might result in cancer, he says.Phone signals are relayed between cell towers and cell phones through radio waves. This radio frequency or RF radiation is a typ

54、e known as non-ionizing（非离子化）. Unlike X-rays and alpha particles, non-ionizing radiation does not put enough energy into cells to release electrons from atoms（原子） or molecules（分子）, producing ions（离子）. So it tends to be far less harmful than ionizing radiation, such as X-rays. But that does not mean

55、radio waves might not cause harm.This radiation will heat the body and cause tissue damage. But its not yet known what much lower RF levels might do, such as those from cell-phone use. Five years ago, the World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer, or IARC, concluded that

56、 cell-phone use “is possibly carcinogenic.” That means it might cause cancer.Its conclusion was based on what little research data were available at that time. But notice that IARC was not certain. It said only that phone use might “possibly” cause cancer. So scientists at the National Toxicology Program, or NTP, decided to investigate further.1What concern does a new study cause?ALong- term, intense radiation exists in cell phones.BHeavy use of cell phones leads to a risk of cancer.CThe new study has caused serious arguments for many years.DPeople have intense exposure to radiation.2Wha
