　　Micro-chip research center created

　　A research center has been set up in this far-east country to develop advanced micro-chip production technology. The center, which will start out with about US$14million,will help the country develop its chip industry without always depending on imported technology.

　　The center will make use of its research skills and facilities to develop new technology for domestic chip plants. The advent of the center will possibly free the country from the situation that it is always buying almost-outdated technologies from other countries, said the country’s flagship chipmaker. Currently, chip plants in this country are in a passive situation because many foreign governments don’t allow them to import the most advanced technologies, fearing they will be used for military purposes. Moreover, the high licensing fees they have to pay to technology provider are also an important reason for their decision of self-reliance.

　　As mainstream chip production technology shifts from one generation to the next every three to five years, plants with new technology can make more powerful chips at lower costs, while plants with out-dated equipment, which often cost billions of dollars to build, will be marginalized by the maker.

　　More than 10 chip plants are being built, each costing millions of U.S. dollars. the majority of that money goes to overseas equipment vendors and technology owners- mainly from Japan and Singapore.

　　Should the new center play a major role in improving the situation in industry, the country admits the US$14million in vestment is still rather small. This country is developing comprehensive technologies. Most of the investment will be spent on setting alliances with technology and intellectual property owners.

　　練習(xí)：

　　16. The country says that the investment of US$14 million is big enough for developing that country’ chip industry.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　17. That country gives top priorities to developing chips for military purposes.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　18. Although the licensing fees are not very high, that far-east country cannot afford to pay.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　19. Many western countries ban the exporting of the most advanced chip-making technologies to that country to prevent them from being used for military purposes.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　20. Currently, almost all the flagship chipmakers in that country are owned by American investors.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　21. Mainstream chip production technology develop rapidly.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　22. More than 10 chip plants being built in that country are an example of self-reliance.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　More Than 8 Hours Sleep Too Much of a Good Thing

　　Although the dangers of too little sleep are widely known，new research suggests that people who sleep too much may also suffer the consequences.

　　Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep，as well as a number of other sleep problems，than people who sleep 8 hours a night.People who slept only 7 hours each night also said they had more trouble falling asleep and feeling refreshed after a night’s sleep than 8-hour sleepers.

　　These findings, which DL Daniel Kripke reported in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, demonstrate that people who want to get a good night’s rest may not need to set aside。more than 8 hours a night.He added that“it might be a good idea'’for people who sleep more than 8 hours each night to consider reducing the amount of time they spend in bed, but cautioned that more research is needed to confirm this.

　　Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep一for instance, one report demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than people who sleep more.

　　For the current report，Kripke reviewed the responses of 1，004 adults to sleep questionnaires，in which participants indicated how much they slept during the Week and whether they experienced any sleep problems.Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night，arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep，and having fatigue interfere with day-to-day functioning.

　　KriDke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more likely to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours.In an interview, Kripke noted that long sleepers may struggle to get rest at night simply because they spend too much time in bed.As evidence，he added that one way to help insomnia is to spend less time in bed.“It stands to reason that if a person spends too long a time in bed, then they’ll spend a higher percentage of time awake.”he said.

　　23. Paragraph 2 ___.

　　24. Paragraph 4___.

　　25. Paragraph 5___.

　　26. Paragraph 6___.

　　A. Keprike’s research tool

　　B. Dangers of Habitual shortages of sleep

　　C. Criticism on Kripke’s report

　　D. A way of overcoming insomnia

　　E. Sleep problems of long and short sleepers

　　F. Classification of sleep problems

　　27.To get a good night’s rest，people may not need to ___.

　　28.Long sleepers are reported to be more likely to___.

　　29. One of the sleep problems is waking in the middle of the night，unable to___.

　　30. One survey showed that people who habitually ___each night have a higher risk of dying.

　　A fall asleep again .

　　B become more energetic the following day

　　C sleep less than 7 hours

　　D confirm those serious consequences

　　E suffer sleep problems

　　F sleep more than 8 hours

　　Stress Level Tied to Education Level

　　People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior.

　　However, the study also found that when 1ess-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a larger impact on their health.

　　From this, researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are not random.Ⅵr11ere you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them.

　　The research team interviewed a national sample of 1.03 1 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health.People without a high school diploma reported stress on 30 percent of the study days，people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time，and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent of the time.

　　‘Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health?！眑ead researcher Dr.Joseph Grzywacz，of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement.“The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors.and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more devastating for the less advantaged.”

　　Grzywacz suggested follow-up research to determine why less-educated people report fewer days of stress when it is known their stress is more acute and chronic.

　　“If something happens every day, maybe it’snot seen as a stressor”Grzywacz says.“Maybe it is just 1ife.”

　　詞匯：

　　stressful adj.緊張的;壓力重的

　　diploma n.畢業(yè)文憑，畢業(yè)證書

　　stressor n.緊張刺激物

　　devastating adj.毀滅性的

　　follow-up n.(對病人的)隨訪

　　33. Which group reported the biggest number of stressful days?

　　A)People without any education.

　　B)People without high school degrees.

　　C)People with high school degrees.

　　D)People with college degrees.

　　34.The less advantaged people are，the greater

　　A)the impact of stress on their health is.

　　B)the effect of education on their health is

　　C)the level of their education is.

　　Superconductor Ceramic (陶瓷)

　　An underground revolution begins this winter. With the flip (輕擊) of a switch,30,000homes in one part of Detroit will soon become the first in the country to receive electricitytransmitted by ice cold high performance cables. Other American cities are expected to followDetroit's example in the years ahead, which could conserve enormous amounts of power.

　　The new electrical cables at the Frisbie power station in Detroit are revolutionary becausethey are made of superconductors. A superconductor is a material that transmits electricity withlittle or no resistance. Resistance is the degree to which a substance resists electric current. Allcommon electrical conductors have a certain amount of electrical resistance. They convert atleast some of the electrical energy passing through them into waste heat. Superconductors don't.No one understands how superconductivity works. It just does.

　　Making superconductors isn't easy. A superconductor material has to be cooled to an extremely low temperature to lose its resistance. The first superconductors, made more than 50years ago, had to be cooled to -263 degrees Celsius before they lost their resistance. Newersuperconducting materials lose their resistance at -143 degrees Celsius.

　　The superconductors cable installed at the Frisbie station is made of a ceramic material thatcontains copper, oxygen, bismuth (鉍), strontium (鍶), and calcium (鈣). A ceramic is ahard, strong compound made from clay or minerals. The superconducting ceramic has beenfashioned into a tape that is wrapped lengthwise around a long tube filled with liquid nitrogen.Liquid nitrogen is super cold and lowers the temperature of the ceramic tape to the point where itconveys electricity with zero resistance.

　　The United States loses an enormous amount of electricity each year to resistance. Becausecooled supercondUutors have no resistance, they waste much less power, other cities arewatching the Frisbie experiment in the hope that they might switch to superconducting cable andconserve power, too.

　　What is the benefit of the revolution mentioned in the first paragraph?

　　A.With a flip of swish, electricity can be transmitted.

　　B.Other American cities can benefit from the high-performance cables.

　　C.Great amounts of power can be conserved.

　　D.Detroit will first receive electricity transmitted by the new electrical cables

　　37、 Compared to common electrical conductors, superconductors__________

　　A.have little or no electrical resistance

　　B.Can be used for along time

　　C.are not energy-efficient

　　D.can be made easily

　　38、 At what temperature does the superconducting ceramic lose its resistance__________?

　　A.-143 degree Celsius.

　　B.-263 degree Celsius.

　　C.As long as it is ice-cold.

　　D.Absolute zero.

　　39、 What element enables the ceramic tape to lower its temperature__________?

　　A.Copper.

　　B.Liquid nitrogen.

　　C.Clay.

　　D.Calcium.

　　40、 According to the last paragraph, which of the following statements is NOT true__________?

　　A.Other cities hope they Can also conserve power.

　　B.Other cities hope they Can use superconducting cables soon.

　　C.Superconductors waste less power because of their low resistance.

　　D.The Fribie experiment is not successful.

　　The Science of the Future

　　Until recently, the "science of the future" was supposed to be electronics and artificialintelligence. Today it seems more and more likely that the next great breakthroughs intechnology will be brought through a combination of those two sciences with organic chemistryand genetic engineering. This combination is the science of biotechnology.

　　Organic chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic (合成的) materials. However,it is still difficult to manufacture anything that has the capacity of wool to conserve heat and alsoto absorb moisture. Nothing that we have been able to produce so far comes anywhere near thecombination of strength, lightness and flexibility that we fred in the bodies of ordinary insects.Nevertheless, scientists in the laboratory have already succeeded in "growing" a material that has many of the characteristics of human skin. The next step may well be "biotech heartsand eyes" which can replace diseased organs in human beings. These will not be rejected by thebody, as is the case with organs from humans.

　　The application of biotechnology to energy production seems even more promising. In1996 the famous science-fiction writer, Arthur C. Clarke, many of whose previous predictionshave come true. He said that we may soon be able to develop remarkably cheap and renewablesources of energy. Some of these power sources will be biological. Clarke and others havewarned us repeatedly that sooner or later we wi/1 have to give up our dependence on non-renewable power sources. Coal, oil and gas are indeed convenient. However, using them alsomeans creating dangerously high levels of pollution. It will be impossible to meet the growingdemand for energy without increasing that pollution to catastrophic (災(zāi)難性的) levels unlesswe develop power sources that are both cheaper and cleaner.

　　It is attempting to think that biotechnology or some other "science of the future" can solveour problems. Before we surrender to that temptation we should remember nuclear power.Only a few generations ago it seemed to promise/imit/ess, cheap and safe energy. Today thosepromises lie buried in a concrete grave in a place called Chernobyl, in the Ukraine.Biotechnology is unlikely, however, to break its promises in quite the same or such a dangerousway.

　　According to the passage, the science of the future is likely to be__________

　　A.electronics

　　B.biotechnology

　　C.genetic engineering

　　D.nuclear technology

　　42、 Organic chemistry helps to produce materials that are__________

　　A.as good as wool

　　B.as good as an insect's body

　　C.not as good as natural materials

　　D.better than natural materials

　　43、 According to the passage, it may soon be possible__________

　　A.to make something as good as human skin

　　B.to produce drugs without side effects

　　C.to transplant human organs

　　D.to make artificial hearts and eyes

　　44、 In 1996, Arthur C. Clarke predicted that__________

　　A.biological power sources would be put into use soon.

　　B.oil, gas and coal could be repeatedly used in the future.

　　C.dependence on non-renewable power sources would be reduced soon.

　　D.the Chernobyl disaster would happen in two years.

　　45、 What do we learn from the last paragraph__________?

　　A.Biotechnology can solve all our future energy problems.

　　B.Biological power is cheaper than nuclear power.

　　C.Biological power may not be as dangerous as nuclear power.

　　D.Biological power will keep all its promises.

　　Nobody likes insects. They are annoying and sometimes dangerous. Some of them bite us and give us 51 ; others bite us and give us big red 52 . Some do not bite, 53 they just fly round our heads or crawl round our houses and gardens. And we do not like any of them 54 those lovely butterflies.

　　But insects are interesting. First, they are very 55 animals. Three hundred and twenty million years ago there were no men or other mammals in the world but there were insects. Today, 56 every square mile of land there are millions of them flying and crawling 57 . Second, insects are very adaptable to their habitat, to their food and to the weather. Now there are about a million different 58 in the world.

　　59 do people use insecticides?

　　Not many insects 60 us. In many cases we do not see the insects and we do not think much about them. The reason is that insects eat 61 of man's food, 62 there are so many billions of them.

　　We must use insecticides to get rid of them. An insecticide is simply a special chemical 63 with some poisonous elements. Farmers spray their crops very often and the insects die quickly. Of course some poisonous chemicals may 64 on the crops or in the 65 , and that is also dangerous.
