Studies indicate that indoor levels of pollutants may be 25 times, and 36 more than 100 times, higher than outdoor levels. These levels of indoor air pollutants may be of particular 37 because most people 38 about 90of their time indoors. Immediate effects may 39 up after a single exposure or repeated exposures. These include irritation(刺激) of the eyes, nose, throat and headaches. Such immediate effects are usually 40 and treatable. Sometimes the treatment is simply eliminating the persons exposure to the source of the pollution, 41 it can be identified. Symptoms of some diseases may also show up soon after exposure to some indoor air pollutants. Certain immediate effects are 42 to those from colds or other diseases, so it is often difficult to determine if the symptoms are a(n) 43 of exposure to indoor air pollution. For this reason, it is important to 44 attention to the time and place the 45 occur. If the symptoms 46 or go away when a person is away from the home and return when the person returns, 47 should be made to identify indoor air sources that may be possible causes. Some effects may be made worse 48 an inadequate supply of outdoor air or from the heating, cooling, or humidity conditions in the home. Other health effects may show up either years after exposure has occurred or only after 49 repeated periods of exposure. These effects, which include some respiratory(呼吸的) diseases, can be 50 fatal. It is better to try to improve the indoor air quality in your home 51 symptoms are not noticeable. While pollutants monly 52 in indoor air are responsible for many harmful effects, there is considerable uncertainty about what periods of exposure are necessary to produce specific health problems. People also react very 53 to exposure to indoor air pollutants. 54 , further research is needed to better 55 the effects of indoor air pollution to find efficient ways to protect our health.36.

The technology, which uses chemicals that prevent bacteria and fungi (真霉) from growing, allows food to last longer. It could put an end to throwing away supermarket bread after just a couple of days in the bread bin and cheese that goes mouldy after just a few weeks.The pany, Janssen, has spent two years developing the technology with the plastics manufacturer, Symphony Environmental. They are now in discussion with several food factories and supermarkets about using the bags for their products. The technology could also be used to make credit cards and the new plastic bank notes more hygienic (卫生的). Tests have shown that the plastic can increase the shelf life of bread and cheese without letting the food go bad. Michael Stephen, director of Symphony Environmental, said the plastic also has the potential to do the same for fruit, vegetables and even meat. He said, “we have e up with a way of making the plastic that is antibacterial and that can be used in food wrapping. We have done a lot of tests on food packaging which have shown such plastic can reduce the mould that grows on both bread and cheese.”In Britain, around 15 million tons of food is thrown away each year, mostly because it has spoiled or gone bad. Bread is the most wasted food, with families throwing away 4.4 million tons a year about a third of all the bread purchased by UK families. Tesco, Britains biggest supermarket, revealed last month that almost half of the bread sold in its stores ended up in the bin.The technology developed by Janssen and Symphony, which they have called D2P, fixes antibacterial and antifungal chemicals to the plastic. They have found it can control bacteria which can cause food poisoning. It can also control the growth of fungi on bread and others.Mr. Stephen added, “Initially we expect that it is only used in pipes and door handles, for example, to help reduce the spread of bacteria. It can also be put into man-made fibers so we are doing some experiments to put it into clothes to stop the bacteria that can cause them to smell.”59. What would happen when people use the plastic bags produced by Janssen?A. The sales of bread and cheese would increase soon.B. Bread and cheese could be stored in a fridge for years.C. Bread and cheese could be kept for a longer time.D. Supermarket bread and cheese would be on sale earlier.60. Why does the writer mention the problem in Britain in Paragraph 3 ?A. To criticize the behaviour of the British.B. To show the popularity of bread.C. To criticize the increasing waste of bread.D. To show the short shelf life of bread.61. It can be concluded from Mr. Stephens words that _.A. more daily uses for this technology are expectedB. this technology is only used used in pipes and door handlesC. man-made fibers should be improved by this technologyD. peoples preference for this technology cannot be expected62. The passage can be classified as _.A. an annual review B. a news report C. an advertisement D. a travel guide CBack in the 1860s, a British scientist named Henry Walter Bates noticed something interesting in the animal world: some harmless animals change the color or patterns of their skin to pretend to be deadly. For example, a kind of butterfly, mon Mormon, can change the pattern on its wings so that it looks like another butterfly species, the mon Rose, which is poisonous for birds to eat. Bates argued that animals develop this ability to protect themselves from being eaten. This theory had been widely accepted by scientists. But one question remains: how do these animals manage to do that? After more than 150 years, scientists are finally able to answer that question it is all down to a gene called “doublesex”, according to a study published on March 6 in the journal Nature. In fact, scientists have long known that genes are responsible for this useful ability. Just like your hair color and the shape of your eyes are determined by your genes, the patterns on a butterflys wings can be explained similarly. But until the new study, scientists hadnt been able to find out which genes in particular were responsible. Encouraged by the development of new technologies for studying genes, scientists at the University of Chicago, US decided to give it another try. They pared the genetic structure of the mon Mormons that changed their wing patterns with those of ones that did not. And all the results pointed to a single gene, “doublesex”.This was much to the scientists surprise. They used to expect that something as plex as this would be controlled by many different genes. For example, one gene would control the color of the upper part of the wing, one would do so for the lower part and one would control wing shape. However, the “doublesex” gene doesnt quite do everything by itself. Instead, it acts like a switch it “tells” other genes to change the wing patterns. Isnt that clever? Scientists believe that this special ability of the “doublesex” gene was developed throughout the long history of evolution. “The harmless species gains an advantage by resembling something predators (捕食动物) avoid,” Sean Carroll, a scientist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, US told Nature. “It was obvious evidence for natural selection.” 63. What was newly discovered by scientists at the University of Chicago?A. Some animals can change their skin color.B. Some butterflies can disguise themselves as other species.C. Genes are responsible for the change in animals skins.D. mon Mormons change their skin patterns due to a certain gene.64. What surprised scientists in the study?A. So many genes are involved in the change of patterns.B. The genetic structure of the butterflies is so plex.C. A single gene determines the change of patterns.D. The gene “doublesex” singlehandedly changes the wing patterns.65. Which of the following is the best title?A. A new discovery B. How butterflies stay safeC. A gene called “doublesex” D. Natural selection DMargaret Mitchell was born in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1900. Her father was a lawyer and the president of the Atlanta Historical Society, and her mother was a suffragette (a woman in support of extending the right to vote, especially to women) and an advocate of womens rights in general. Mitchell grew up listening to stories about Atlanta during the Civil War, stories often told by people who had lived through the war. Mitchell attended Smith College, a womens college in Northampton, Massachusetts. In 1919, she returned to Atlanta and began to live a lifestyle considered wild by the standards of the 1920s. After a disastrous first marriage, Mitchell began a career as a journalist and married an advertising executive named John Robert Marsh. In 1926, encouraged by her husband, Mitchell began to write the novel that would bee Gone with the Wind. She went through nine plete drafts of the thousand-page work, setting an epic romance against the Civil War background she knew so well. In the first eight drafts, the protagonist (主角) was called Prissy Hamilton, not Scarlett OHara (as the character was renamed in the final draft).Gone with the Wind differs from most Civil War novels by glorifying the South and uglifying the North. Other popular novels about the Civil War, such as Stephen Cranes The Red Badge of Courage, are told from a Nor
