Some people think they have an answer to the problems of automobile crowding and pollution in large cities. Their answer is the bicycle, or "bike".In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York Cith, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike fie a Better City. They claim that if more people rode bicycles to work there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown section of the city and therefore less dirty air from car engines.For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bicycle riders. For example, they want the city to paint special lanes—for bicycles only—on some of the main streets, because when bicycle riders must use the same lanes as cars, there may be accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes, more people would use bikes.But no bicycle lanes have been painted yet. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea. Taxi drivers don't like the idea—they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don't like the idea—they say if there is less traffic, they will have less business. And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike.The government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park—the largest open space in New York—is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only. But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown. Until that happens, the safest place to bicycles may be in the park.Question：The main idea of the passage is to show .A.the problems of automobile crowding and pollution in large cityB.bike for a Better City's answer to the problems of automobilesC.a great many bike riders in New York CityD.the city government's decision about bicycle lanes

Doctors may not be able to stop many heart attacks. An important new study reports that doctors have a new drug. This drug is called TPA. It may be better than any other heart drug.Many doctors now use a drug called streptokinase. But this drug sometimes causes problems for patients. It can even cause bleeding in the brain. Some doctors do not use streptokinase. Streptokinase can save about one third of the people with heart attacks. But TPA will save about two thirds. This means many people. About 1.5 million Americans have heart attacks every year.One reason TPA can help more people is because of time. This new drug is easier and faster to use. It will give doctors more time in hospitals. Then they can study the problem well. People with heart problems can also keep some TPA at home. When a heart attack starts, they can take some TPA right away. Then they will have time to get to the hospital. This is important because about 860,000 people in the United States die before they get to the hospital.According to the passage, which of the following about TPA is NOT true?A. It will be tested on many more people with heart attacks.B. It has found wide application in many hospitals.C. It will cause less problems than streptokinase does.D. It is not only easier and faster to use but also a lot safer.
Brain-training software may be a waste of time．People who played"mind-boosting"games made the same modest cognitive gains as those who spent a similar amount of time surfing the web．"It didn't really make any difference what people did，"says Adrian Owen of the Medical Research Council Cognition，who tested brain-training software on volunteers recruited through a BBC television program．Owen and his colleagues asked 11，000 volunteers to take tests to measure their reasoning ability and verbal and spatial（空间的）memory．Participants then spent six weeks playing on one of two computer programs，or just surfing the web for pleasure．In one program，which imitates commercial brain-training software，the volunteers solved simple mathematics problems and puzzles that tested their memories．The other was designed specifically to boost cognitive abilities such as reasoning and planning．After six weeks，the participants underwent a second round of cognitive tests．Both groups who played the games made modest improvements，yet so did the web surfers．Skills learned via the programs didn't transfer to the cognitive tests，even when they relied on similar abilities，says Owen．For instance，people who played a game in which they had to find a match for a briefly overturned card struggled at a similar test that used stars"hidden"in boxes，"Even when the tests were conceptually quite similar we didn't see any improvement，"says Owen．He concludes that brain-training software only makes people better at the specific tasks they have been practicing．Yet Klingberg，who founded a cognitive-training firm called Cogmed，is indignant at the conclusion that all brain training is bunk．The participants in Owen's study didn't practice for long enough and there was no quality control over what practice people did，he says．"Asking subjects to sit at home and do tests online，perhaps with the TV on or other distractions around，is likely to result in noisy data，"he says．"This paper does in no way disprove that the brain is plastic or that cognitive functions can be improved by training．"Owen counters that his team's research took place in settings similar to the ones people are likely to practice in．"This is what people are doing．They're sitting at home on their computers doing brain training．"32．The purpose of Owen recruiting volunteers to do the first round of tests is ____ ．A．test their reasoning ability and verbal and spatial memoryB．support the BBC television program in his wayC．prove how much information participants can rememberD．detect differences among people in memorizing information33．From the second round of cognitive tests，Owen concludes that ____ ．A．all participants have made much recognizable improvement dramaticallyB．participants have developed reasoning ability to solve complicated problemsC．participants can make greater improvement in solving very similar problemsD．participants performed better in certain tasks they have practiced for a long time34．What's the meaning of"indignant"？ ____ A．Surprised．B．Agreeable．C．Mad．D．Dishonest．35．What is the passage mainly about？ ____ A．There is a debate about whether brain-training software is effective．B．We should concentrate on brain-training software in our daily life．C．Brain-training software is useless to most people．D．It is important to improve reasoning ability and spatial memory．

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

Americans experience more food recalls (召回) today than they did five years ago, especially when it comes to meat and poultry (家禽). Meat and poultry recalls increased by two-thirds from 2013 to 2018, while food recalls overall went up 10%, according to the report recently published by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group.Meanwhile, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates (估计) 48 million people get sick, 128,000 are hospitalized and 3,000 die from food-borne disease each year in the U.S. "We are looking for the farm-to-fork preventative solutions," said Adam Garber, the research group's consumer watchdog. "By doing that, we can protect people's health."Over the five-year period, poultry posted the most recalls (168), followed by beef (137) and pork (128). The report shows the most serious meat recalls are on the rise. Among meat and poultry, the number of Class I recalls has increased by 83%, nearly doubling. Class I, the most serious of the recalls, is issued when there is a reasonable probability that the food will cause health problems or death.53. When would Class I recalls be issued?A. When the food is likely to cause health problems or death.B. When there are too many complaints from customers.C. When the food problem lasts for five years.D. When the product quality is below standard.
