The mens and the womens triathlon start at 7:30 am. The womens softball has games scheduled for 9 am, but no mens baseball game

33、s will start before noon.“A 9 am start is early. Thats my impression,” said Reika Utsugi, head coach of Japans womens softball team. “But we will have one year for the preparation. Softball cannot decide the times.” Softball and baseball were dropped after the 2008 Olympics, and are appearing becaus

34、e of their popularity in Japan.The 1964 Tokyo Olympics were held in the autumn and did not face heat problems. Modern Olympics which are held every four years can no longer be held during that time, avoiding Europes crowded soccer schedule, and year-round scheduling of baseball, basketball and hocke

35、y in the US. Koji Murofushi, sports director of the Tokyo Games, said organizers had consulted about scheduling with the International Olympic Committee(IOC), the governing bodies of the individual sports, athletes and medical experts. He said athletes would be able to adapt.“When we look at the Oly

36、mpic Games as a whole, of course we need to consider the global audience, adjust and control the overall schedule,” Murofushi said. “Athletes, when they know the schedule in advance, can make adjustments to their preparations.”As previously announced, the swimming finals will begin at 10:30 am. The

37、swim schedule has nothing to do with the heat and will follow the pattern of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.Organizers say the first gold medal event will be the womens 10-meter air rifle, which will take place on July 25 the day after the opening ceremony. Organizers have labeled Aug 8 the day before th

38、e closing ceremony as “Super Saturday”, with about 30 finals, the most of any single day. Finals will include the mens basketball, the mens soccer and the mens baseball.The most difficult event to schedule might be surfing. Organizers have blocked out eight days for the event, hoping surfs up for at

39、 least four of them. Its a four-day competition. “The schedule is subject to change depending on the wave conditions,” organizers said.54. The organizers of the Tokyo Olympics will start some events earlier EXCEPT _. A. the womens marathon finals B. the mens triathlon C. the womens softball games D.

40、 the swimming finals55. What can we infer from the passage? A. The softball game is usually held in the late afternoon. B. Its impossible for athletes to deal with the new schedule. C. The baseball game was cancelled at two Olympic Games. D. The organizers changed the schedule without consideration.

41、 56. The IOC changed the time of the Olympics Games to _. A. beat the summer heat B. meet the needs of athletes C. avoid famous competitionsD. give athletes time to prepare57. As to the events and awards at the Tokyo Olympics, we can know that _. A. the mens 10-meter air rifle will be the first even

42、t B. Aug 8 will be the day with the most gold medals awarded C. surfing which is easy to schedule will be a four-day competition D. the mens basketball will take place before “Super Saturday” CAstronomers have taken the first ever image of a black hole, which is located in a distant galaxy (星系). It

43、measures 40 billion km across three million times the size of the Earth and has been described by scientists as “a monster”. The black hole is 500 million trillion km away and was photographed by a network of eight telescopes across the world. Details have been published today in Astrophysical Journ

44、al Letters. Prof Heino Falcke, who proposed the experiment, told BBC News that the black hole was found in a galaxy called M87. “What we see is larger than the size of our entire Solar System,” he said. “It has a mass 6.5 billion times that of the Sun. It is an absolute monster, the heavyweight cham

45、pion of black holes in the Universe.” The image shows an intensely bright “ring of fire”, as Prof Falcke describes it, surrounding a perfectly circular dark hole. Some scientists assumed that the bright ring is caused by superheated gas falling into the hole. The light is brighter than all the billi

46、ons of other stars in the galaxy combined which is why it can be seen at such distance from Earth. The edge of the dark circle at the centre is the point at which the gas enters the black hole, which is an object that has such a large gravitational pull (引力) that even light cant escape. The image ma

47、tches what theoretical physicists and indeed, Hollywood directors, imagined black holes would look like, according to Dr Ziri Younsi, of University College London. “Although they are relatively simple objects, black holes raise some of the most complex questions about the nature of space and time, a

48、nd finally of our existence,” he said. “It is surprising that the image we observe is so similar to that which we obtain from our theoretical calculations (计算). So far, it looks like Einstein is correct once again.” But having the first image will enable researchers to learn more about these mysteri

49、ous objects. They will be keen to look out for ways in which the black hole leaves from whats expected in physics. No one really knows how the bright ring around the hole is created. Even more interesting is the question of what happens when an object falls into a black hole. 58. What made the scien

50、tists call the black hole a “monster”? A. The holes larger size.B. Its distance from the earth. C. The gravitational pull.D. The bright ring of the hole.59. Why can the black hole be seen from the Earth? A. The superheated gas falling into the hole makes it brighter. B. An intensely bright “ring of

51、fire” surrounds the black hole. C. The gravitational pull of the hole is so large that no light escapes. D. The light of the other stars combined cant match that of the hole.60. About the image of the black hole, which of the following is CORRECT? A. Eight telescopes in the USA cooperated to take th

52、e image. B. It will help researchers to learn more about black holes. C. It is different from what Hollywood directors imagined. D. It enables scientists to know the nature of our existence.61. What might be the best title for the passage? A. The Heaviest Black Hole B. First Black Hole Image Release

53、d C. A Surprising Monster D. Einstein is Correct Once AgainDThe iconic symbol of Paris, the Eiffel Tower opened to the public on March 31, 1889, and the graceful metal structure has continued to attract the world for 130 years. But some little known facts about the Eiffel Tower may surprise you. The

54、 original intention was for the structure, which was built for the 1889 Worlds Fair, to be demolished after 20 years. But engineer Gustave Eiffel later arranged to have a radio antenna (天线) and transmitter placed in the tower, and the importance of the tower to communications saved it from demolitio

55、n. At the present time, 120 antennas broadcast radio and television transmissions from the tower.During the 1889 Worlds Fair, the newspaperLe Figaroset up a small printing operation on the third floor that produced a daily commemorative (纪念的) edition for visitors to buy.Almost seven million visitors each year pay the admission fee to visit the Eiffel Tower. Since the structure
