Picture the scene: the battery on your mobile phone has run out. You can't make any calls for help and no one can contact you. You are all alone - well, not quite. Just reach into your pocket and take out a piece of sugar.Put it into the battery, wait a minute, and you're back on the phone.

Thanks to a couple of American scientists, this situation could become real.Swadesh Chaudhuri and Derek Lovely have invented the"bacteria battery" - powered by bacteria that eats sugar and turns it into electricity.

"This is a special organism," Lovely said."You can harvest enough electricity to power a cell phone battery for about four days from a spoonful of sugar."

In the past, bacteria batteries have been expensive and not long-lasting. But this battery uses more efficient bacteria that can turn 80 percent of sugar into electrical energy. This is 30 percent more than similar batteries can manage.

The bacteria battery could become as small as a household battery. It's also cheap and stable, as sugar can be taken from waste and crops.

But the sugar to electricity process is slow: it could take weeks for the bacteria to digest a cup of sugar.And it produces "greenhouse" gases which pollute the environment.

The scientists understand there is a lot more work to be done. "It is still young," said Lovely."Where we are now is where solar power was 200r 30 years ago."

But he believes the battery could be used in scientific equipment at the bottom of the ocean.Other ideas include using sugar in the blood to run medical devices in the human body, and taking sugar from animal waste to provide energy to power homes in rural areas.

1.This passage is mainly about_ .

A. how to change sugar into electricity

B. a scientific invention of a new kind of bacteria battery

C. a new way to reduce pollution caused by mobile phones

D. a new kind of mobile phones and its future

2.Which of the following is not the strong point of the newly-developed battery?

A. Convenient. B.Stable. C. Inexpensive. D. Quick.

3.The underlined sentence in the 7th paragraph actually means .

A. the bacteria battery shares some similarities with solar energy

B. scientists will continue their work until they find solar power

C. there is much room for the improvement of the bacteria battery

D. the bacteria battery will get popular in 20 0r 30 years

4.According to the passage, who will find the bacteria battery less useful?

A. Farmers. B. Divers. C. Doctors. D. Electricians.

Last week I talked with some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated, and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.

Given that I teach students who are training to be doctors, I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without “outside help”. “What kind of help is that?” I asked, expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out.

“Surgery(外科手術(shù))”, one replied.

I was pretty alarmed by that response. It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job.

One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height. “They break your legs, put in special extending screws, and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it re-grows, you can get at least 5 cm taller!”

At that point, I was shocked. I am short, I can’t deny that, but I don’t think I would put myself through months of agony(痛苦) just to be a few centimeters taller. I don’t even bother to wear shoes with thick soles, as I’m not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!

It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting “perfection”, and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality.

No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm. Advertisements for slimming aids, beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers, further creating an idea that “perfection” is a requirement, and that it must be purchased, no matter what the cost.

In my opinion, skills, rather than appearance, should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career.

1.We can know from the passage that the author works as ________.

A. a doctor B. a model C. a teacher D. a reporter

2.Many graduates today turn to cosmetic s surgery to ________.

A. marry a better man\woman B. become a model

C. get an advantage over others in job-hunt D. attract more admirers

3.According to the passage, the author believes that ________.

A. everyone should purchase perfection, whatever the cost

B. it’s right for graduates to ask for others to help them out in hunting for jobs

C. it is one’s appearance instead of skills that really matters in one’s career

D. media are to blame for misleading young people in their seeking for surgery

4.The best title for the passage should be “________”.

A. Young Graduates Have Higher Expectation

B. Young Graduates Look to Surgery for Better Jobs

C. Young Graduates’ Opinion About Cosmetic Surgery

D. Young Graduates Face a Different Situation in Job-hunt

Despite the high technology and investment in flood defences by the Environment Agency, there is no way to stop all flooding -- sooner or later nature will produce something that will beat even the strongest defences.

Warning people of this danger is very important if we are to prevent the great loss of life seen fifty-three years ago. Indeed if the Flood Warning System that currently exists had been around on that cold, stormy night in January 1953, many lives would have been spared.

The Environment Agency took over the role of flood warning in 1995 from the police who had to go door to door or sound alarms to get the news out. The service is being constantly improved and a combination of better technology and increased investment following the Easter Floods of 1998 has led to the creation of Floodline and an automatic messaging system that can warn thousands of people in very little time.

Floodline 0845 988 1188 offers information and advice 24 hours a day and if warnings are in place, callers can get information either from local updates or by using a quickdial code for their area.

The Flood Warning team in Kent has also sent letters to the people living close to the rivers or the sea and invited them to join the AVM (automated voice messaging) system. Anyone choosing to take up this free service will receive a recorded message directly to their home, business or pager telling them of the level of warning, giving them as much time as possible to carry out their flood plan and save items that cannot be replaced if lost or damaged, such as photographs or children’s favorite toys.

1.Choose the correct statements from the following according to the passage.

a. Many people lost their lives in the flood in 1953.

b. The Flood Warning system was already in use in 1953.

c. Flood defences can stop all flooding.

d. The Environment Agency began to warn people of flood in 1995.

e. Floodline was created after the Easter Floods of 1998.

A. a, b, c B. b, c, d

C. a, d, e D. a, c, e

2.What does the underlined word "pager" mean in the passage?

A. A piece of equipment designed to receive and show messages.

B. A boy employed to carry luggage in hotels.

C. A page of papers written to offer messages.

D. A person, invited to write pages of messages.

3.People can easily get information and advice about flood any time of the day from____.

A. automatic messaging system

B. automated voice messaging system

C. the Flood Warning team in Kent

D. Floodline 0845 988 1188

4.The best title for this passage may probably be ____.

A. Environment Agency B. Flood Warning System

C. Technology In Flood Defences D. Easter Floods

Was the London Olympics a success? Many people hold different opinions.However, one thing is certain, London could win a gold medal for hosting the“greenest”Games ever, BBC News reported.

Previous Olympic hosts have been criticized for the environmental damage they have caused through construction, waste and transport.But things had to be different in London.

What is most impressive is that London considered the construction of the Olympic Park as an opportunity to clean up polluted areas.2 million tons of polluted soils were removed and 200 old factory buildings were torn down, according to sustainablebusiness.com.But that’s not all.99 percent of the debris(廢瓦礫)were reused to build the Olympic Park.

As well as using recycled materials, all gymnasiums were built with green building techniques.The Olympic Stadium is the lightest one ever built, which minimized the amount of steel and concrete needed.Also, the handball field has lighting pipes on the roof that reduce electricity use by 40 percent.

The effort that London made to deal with waste also deserves praise.Water used for drinking and watering plants was from collected rainwater or recycled wastewater.In this way, about 30-40 percent less water was used in total.Waste food package were either recycled or processed and turned into renewable energy.

As one of the best connected places in Europe, London tried to solve traffic jams by encouraging the use of public transport.For example, it had trains deliver half of the building materials, instead of cars, which greatly reduced carbon emissions(排放).

The clean anti-doping result also added to the greenness of the Games.Only one athlete tested positive for a banned drug on the day of competing, which is why the IOC President, Jacques Rogge, has praised anti-doping efforts at the London Games.

1.To make the Olympic Park green, London ________.

A.recycled 2 million tons of polluted soil

B.a(chǎn)pplied green building techniques to the construction

C.built the Olympic Stadium mostly with recycled materials

D.removed 99 percent of the debris from the city

2.The underlined word“minimized”in the fourth paragraph probably means ________.

A.increased as much as possible B.made use of

C.reduced as much as possible D.took little notice of

3.What can we conclude from the article?

A.The London Olympics cost less than the other Olympics ever held.

B.London has possessed the most advanced techniques to deal with waste.

C.Public transport is made good use of in London during the Olympic Games.

D.The anti-doping result in the London Olympics turned out to be dissatisfactory.

4.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A.The effort that London made to deal with waste isn't worthy of praise.

B.In terms of holding the greenest Games, the London Olympics was a success.

C.London tried to solve traffic jams by encouraging the use of private cars for free.

D.The IOC President, Jacques Rogge was unsatisfied with the anti-doping efforts at the London Games.
