What used to be fun and different bees boring. That is the time to look for something new. It is the time for a big idea to get your mind off everyday life. So why not search for extra-terrestrial（外星的）intelligence? Or even better, why not get your puter to do it for you?Over two million people have joined the Search for Extra-terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project. Based in California, the SETI project analyses information taken from a giant radio telescope based in South America. Its task is to look for signals from outer space that might prove that life exists on other planets.Processing this information is far too big a job for one puter. So the SETI project workers divide the work among volunteers who visit their website. Each puter gets some information to work out from the SETI network through the Internet. This process is often known as “metaputing”.It is a wonderful thought. You are sleeping, eating a meal or going out with friends. All this time, your puter is searching the stars for signs that might show something is out there trying to get in touch. Volunteers are proud of being involved in the SETI project. It shows that they understand the potential of puting. They know that it is more than just a way of working or playing games.Metaputing may also be creating intelligence as well as looking for it. This idea is based on the theory that human intelligence is created by the way in which different parts of the brain municate with each other. As the saying goes, “The whole is more than the sum of its parts.” People who join the SETI project sometimes wonder whether their puter will bee part of a huge network that has learned to think for itself.阅读文章，选择正确答案：1.

Low or no parking fees would be used as economic leverage to reduce growing parking demands from urban areas.Car owners living in the suburbs will be encouraged to park their cars beyond the Fourth and Fifth Ring Roads and take buses or subways to the downtown area. Statistics show that nearly one quarter of the citys traffic flow is concentrated in the 62-square-kilometre downtown area within the Second Ring Road, which makes up only 12 percent of the citys total area.The Beijing Traffic Management Bureau receives between 400 and 500 calls reporting traffic jams every day and more than 90 percent of the roads are filled to capacity during rush hour every morning and evening. Part of the problem is the lack of easy links between bus routes, subways and cars.According to the munication mission, half of the citys investment in transportation will go towards public transit construction in the next few years, making a jump from the current only 20 percent. Moreover, Beijing plans to change its layout by building new city centers, such as at Yizhuang, Tongzhou, Shunyi and Changping, in a bid to reduce the traffic flow to the downtown.The current layout of Beijing-expanded ring roads around the same center of the Forbidden City, is seen as the root cause of the endless traffic jams. The downtown area is crowded with three business centers and one financial centre, as well as nearly 400 government organs and institutions.Traffic experts say building more urban centers around Beijing may reduce the number of residents living in the suburbs and traveling long distances to work downtown every day, thus reducing traffic flow.阅读文章，选择正确答案：5. In the ing years, if a man beyond the Fourth Ring Road goes to work in the downtown of Beijing, he is encouraged to _.A. take buses or subwaysB. take a taxiC. drive the car quicklyD. park his car in a place which asks for no fees6.

The aim in building new city centers is to _.A. make it convenient for people to go shoppingB. develop its local resourcesC. reduce the traffic flow to the downtownD. solve the problem of more laid-off workers8.
