From our smartphones to our latest weaponry, the technology that underpins（支撐） modern life would be impossible without rare earth metals． The importance of rare earths has only grown as emerging markets increase their demand for technologies made with it, as does the renewable energy industry．
The 17 metallic elements are common in the earth-s crust, but the technique used to extract and refine them is labor-intensive, environmentally hazardous and increasingly costly． Thomas Gradael, a professor of geology and geophysics at the Yale School of Forestry Environmental Studies, explains that the鈺criticality" of rare earths was only recently understood after China, which dominates the world-s supply of the minerals, cut exports by 40% in 2010, citing concerns over how polluting the rare earth industry was．
Along with colleagues at Yale, Gradael decided to investigate the metals used in modern technologies to determine if there were viable（可行的） substitutes．“Twenty or thirty years ago electronics were being made with 11 different elements," explains Gradael． “Today's computers and smartphones use something like 63 different elements．" Their findings showed that there were no "readily apparent" substitutes for a metal that would not compromise on quality or performance．
However increased mining for these scarce resources can have some nasty side effects for the environment． China, which has intensively mined for rare earths with little regulation, allowing it to dominate the global industry since 1990, has acknowledged the incredible environmental harm caused by the process． “Excessive rare earth mining has resulted in landslides, clogged rivers, environmental pollution emergencies and even major accidents and disasters, causing great damage to people's safety and health and the ecological environment," read a white paper issued by the Chinese cabinet in June last year．
Recycling metal has been advocated by some as a possible way of managing these precious resources-the European Parliament adopted a law curbing dumping of electric waste in 2012． But Gradael says that for rare earths, recycling will have little impact．
1.Rare earths are growingly important in that
A． they exist in small numbers
B． they are essential in modern technologies
C． life would be impossible without them
D． new technology markets are emerging
2.Which one of the following can be used in the blank?
A． It is in China that rare earths are fully understood．
B． Despite the name, rare earth metals are not in fact rare．

D． Rare earth metals are difficult to collect though important．
3.Gradael investigated the use of rare earths in modern technologies to ．
A． prove the important role rare earths play
B． learn the number of different elements used
C． determine whether there are substitutes for rare earths
D． research further the quality or performance of rare earths
4. Why does the author take China as an example in Para．4?
A． To tell the wide use of rare earth in China．
B． To prove the side effects of rare earth mining．
C． To warn people of the possible damage．
D． To teach other countries a lesson to follow．
5.The text may probably be followed by the paragraphs about
A． the reasons why recycling works little
B． the ways to manage rare earths
C． the effects brought about by rare earths

Regarded as one of the English language's most gifted poets, John Keats wrote poetry that concentrated on imagery, human nature, and philosophy. Although Keats didn't receive much formal literary education, his own studies and passion brought him much success. Additionally, his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly.
Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower, middle-class family, the young John didn't attend a private school, but went to a public one. His teachers and his family's friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies. After his father's death in the early 1800s, followed by his mother's passing due to tuberculosis (肺結(jié)核), he began viewing life differently. He wanted to escape the world and did so by reading anything he could get his hands on.
At around the age of 16, the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor. However, his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy, especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser. He was able to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816, entitled O Solitude! If I Must With Thee Dwell. Within two months in 1817, Keats had written an entire volume of poetry, but was sharply criticized by a magazine. However, the negative response didn't stop his pursuit of rhythm.
John Keats' next work was Endymion, which was published in May 1818. The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boy's hope to overcome the limitations of being human. Following Engymion, however, he tried something more narrative-based and wrote Isabella. During this time, John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences. He would have to have the "knowledge" associated with his poems. His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned. However, a bout (發(fā)作) with tuberculosis while visiting Italy would keep him from his work and eventually take his life in 1821.
1.John Keats' attitude towards life changed because of________.
A. his early education from school
B. the criticism of a magazine
C. Edmund Spenser's poetry
D. the deaths of his parents
2.What is the common thing between John Keats and his mother?
A. They read many books.
B. They died of the same disease.
C. They had a bad childhood.
D. They showed strong interest in poetry.
3.What do we know from the passage?
A. Keats once had a chance of becoming a doctor.
B. Keats received little education at school.
C. In 1816 Keats spent two months writing a poem.
D. Endymion was about a real love story.
4.While pursuing his dream of becoming a poet at first, John Keats was________.
A. knowledgeable B. experienced
C. determined D. impatient
5.What can we infer from the passage?
A. The poem Hyperion wasn't completed by Keats.
B. Edmund Spenser was the greatest poet in Keats' time.
C. It is likely that Keats rewrote his poem Isabella.
D. Keats' family must have been very poor when he was young.
