TechnologyWhen faced with some new and possibly confusing technological change, most people react in one of two ways. They (1)____refuse to accept anything new, claiming that it is unnecessary or too complicated or that it somehow makes life less than human. Or they learn to (2) ada____ to the new invention, and eventually wonder how they could possibly have existed without it. (3)____computers as an example. For many of us, they still represent a (4) thr____ to our freedom, and give us a frightening sense of a future in which all (5)____(decide) will be taken by machines. This may be because they seem mysterious, and difficult to (6) und____. Ask most people what you use a home computer for, and you can usually get vague answers about how “they give you information”. In fact, even those of us who are familiar with computers, and use them in our daily work, have very little idea of how they (7)____. But it does not take long to learn how to operate a business programme, even if things occasionally go (8)____for no apparent reason. Presumably much the same happened when the telephone and the television became widespread. What seems to alarm most people is the speed of (9)____(technology) change, rather than change itself. And the objections that are made to new technology may well have a point to them, (10) si____ change is not always an improvement.

第1题:

Why does it take long for people to change their food?

A. Because labs are not easily accessible to researchers.

B. Because some people are reluctant to accept the new diet.

C. Because food consumption is a culture of conservation.

D. Because some scientists are against the growing lab meat.


正确答案:C
细节推理题。由文章最后一段中的最后两句话“But food consumption is a conservative culture phenomenon.It cad take several generations to change.”内容可以得出结论,作者认为食品消费一直以来都是一种保守的文化现象,因此正确答案是C。
参考译文:
新型的健康肉制品将不再是诸如猪肉或是自然饲养的牛肉了。如果那些有远见的科学家成功了的话.将来的肉制品无论从口感还是外观上看都与以前的没有什么,区别,唯一不同的只是它们是在实验室里制成的。
一些专家正在从事这样一项工作:他们把含有动物肌肉细胞的肉养在盘子里。而现在的技术离这些肉上市还有很长一段路要走。但是专家坚信这将是产生一种新型美国饮食的有效方法,这样的肉对人体也会更健康。此外,这种在实验室里研制出来的肉制品意味着专家们可以对肉的脂肪、蛋白质和其他一些指标进行控制,从而生产出污染少的肉制品。那么或许到那时麦当劳的早餐肉就能使人们远离而不是让人患上心脏疾病。
然而,仍有一些科学家对此产生了质疑。他们说:“无论从技术还是经济上来说,这都不实际。”毕竟,肉制品不是简单的肌肉细胞组合,而是一种由脂肪、神经、血管和相关组织结合在一起的复杂结合体。每种细胞在其成品的口感上都起着一定的作用。这种结构的模仿对产品具有良好的口感是必需的。事实上,在实验室里研制肉制品并不是一种新的观点。早在1912年,一位法国科学家就做过这样一个试验:他将鸡心上的组织养在有营养旁的玻璃瓶里。这些肌肉组织存活了30多年——竟然比这位科学家活的时间还长!至于成本,专家们正试图将其降低。因为现在这种实验室肉制品一磅大约要花费1000至5000美元。就目前的消费水平来说,人们根本无法接受。
在这个禽流感、疯牛病不断出现,人口密度不断加大,探测火星的壮志不断升华的时代,实验室肉制品必将会走向市场。但是食品消费一直以来都是一种保守的文化现象,对这一趋势的适应还需要很长的时间。

第4题:

Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society. There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition, there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies. All these factors tend to protnote social change by opening more areas of life to decision.
In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least customary and undisputed.
Within a society, social changes is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non-material, for example, in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early; in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposites; in the simple elements rather than in the complex ones; in form rather than in substance; and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in strange elements.
Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual. For example, it comes more readily in human relations on a continuous scale rather than one with sharp difference. This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to Black Americans as compared to other American minorities,because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and their white counterparts.
?The expression "greater tolerance" (Para. 1) refers to__________.

A.greater willingness to accept social change
B.quicker adaptation to changing circumstances
C.more respect for different beliefs and behavior
D.greater readiness to agree to different opinions and ideas

答案:C
解析:
由第一段以及常识可知,社会容忍度指的是对不同观点、信仰、行为等的尊重。

A. Some Americans would not accept the value of conservation and environment protection, because this value would probably make them unemployed.

B. Many Americans have been used to wasting, so it will be difficult for them to accept the new value of conservation.

D. Most Americans have fully realized the need to protect the environment, so they have taken measures to recycle junked goods.


正确答案:D
62.D  [解析]根据文章第一段中的“But conservation has never been a strong value to Americans…”和第二段中的“…more and more Americans are recycling…”可知,D项中的
“Most Americans…”说法与文意不符。

第6题:

In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a "weight problem". To many people, the cause is obvious: we eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were leaner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less, and didn't watch TV.

Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as a 1979 study of 3, 545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.

Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University found the following interesting fact:

The more the man ran, the greater loss of body fat.

The more they ran, the greater their increase in food intake.

Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.

1、What kind of physical problem do many adult Americans have?____

A、They are too slim.

B、They work too hard.

C、They are too fat.

D、 They lost too much body fat.

2、Based upon the statistics given in the article, suppose there are 500 adult Americans, about how many of them will have a "weight problem"?____

A、 30.

B、 50.

C、100.

D、150.

3、Is there scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a "weight problem"?____

A、Yes, there is plenty of evidence.

B、Of course, there is some evidence to show this is true.

C、There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this.

D、We don't know because the information is not given

4、In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of ____.

A、ate more food and had more physical activities

B、ate less food but had more activities

C、 ate less food and had less physical exercise

D、had more weight problems

5、What have modern medical and scientific researches reported to us?____

A、Fat people eat less food and are less active.

B、 Fat people eat more food than slim people and are more active.

C、 Fat people eat more food than slim people but are less active.

D、 Thin people run less, but have greater increase in food intake.

第7题:

下列语句能给数组赋值而不使用for循环的是

A.myArray{[1]="One";[2]="Two";[3]="Three";}

B.String s[5]=new String[]{"Zero", "One", "Two", "There", "Four"};

C.String s[]=new String[]{"Zero", "One", "Two", "There", "Four"};

D.String s[]=new String[]=|"Zero", "One", "Two", "There", "Four"};


正确答案:C
解析:A)、D)语法不正确,B)中s[5]的形式只能通过for循环的格式进行赋值,而不能直接赋值。C)中表达式左侧的“[]”说明现在定义一个数组,不需要指明数组长度,而表达式右侧“[]”在后面直接紧跟初始内容时也是不需要指定数组大小的,数组大小直接由初值长度决定。
