A
For a small but increasing number of young women in modern-day China, true love is all about the numbers. A potential suitor may have a good sense of humor and reasonable good looks, but what they say really matters is if he owns an apartment and how many square feet it is. A sizable bank account is also a must, and, some say, so is a luxury car.
At least, that the way things look if you watch Chinese television these days. The latest reality-TV scandal to shock the nation involves Ma Nuo, a 22-year-old model from Beijing who appeared on China most popular dating show, If You Are the One. She rejected an offer from a male contestant to take a ride on his bike. “I rather cry in a BMW (BMW) car than laugh on the backseat of a bicycle, “Ma told her suitor with a giggle.
The televised words swept the Internet and made an instant celebrity of Ma, who becomes one of the most talked-about women in the country. The reaction among young Chinese was especially severe, reflecting growing anxieties over the widening gap between rich and poor, shifting societal values ??and public attention on the difficulties of finding a mate in a country where men are expected to outnumber women by 24 million in a decade.
As disgusted as they have been by some of the contestants, viewers continue to watch religiously. Why are people still tuning in? “Audiences like programs because they are honest. They show the current reality of Chinese society,” says Yan Mu, one of the founders of Baihe.com. Young people are so focused on making money and building their careers these days, they have little time to devote to dating, he says. “Many people feel pressure from their parents and peers,” Yan adds. “It can be a struggle to find a partner.” Money may not buy you love. But on China reality shows, it can at least get you a date.

Your House Will Take Care of You In Old Age
Have you ever thought what your life would be like in old age? Everyone talks about the “aging” society with large numbers of elderly people needing home care. Now German researchers have set up a “smart” house, programmed to help the elderly live at home with dignity. Scientists at Germany Fraunhofer Institute say the house combines existing technology with future-oriented technology.
For example, the “smart” bathroom has a touch screen mirror that can remind people to take their medicine, wash their hands or brush their teeth. The hardware behind Fraunhofer electronic bathroom is not new, and the software runs on a regular personal computer.
When the medicine cabinet is opened, a display in the middle of the mirror tells the person how many pills to take. The mirror is linked to a care provider, who can remotely check whether a patient at home is actually taking medicine and brushing his or her teeth. As many elderly people have arthritic (arthritis) conditions that make it difficult to operate water taps, the mirror also has displays that turn the water tap on or off or control the water temperature.
The bathroom is only the start. Kitchens, bedrooms and all other parts of the “intelligent “home will become” user-friendly “to meet all kinds of individual needs. Sensors in doors, toilets, taps, light switches and carpets detect every activity and record them electronically. Doctors or care staff can see from the computer records what personal hygiene tasks have been completed, how often the elderly person visits the bathroom or uses the toilet. In case of an emergency, the computer automatically alerts the chosen contact person or calls the care center.
61. The smart “bathroom has a touch screen mirror ________.
A. that can help the elderly brush their teeth B. which is linked to a nursing house
C. behind which is a medicine cabinetD. that can remind people to do many things
62. The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to ________.
A. every activity B. doors, toilets, taps, light switches and carpets C. individual needs D. sensors
63. The house mentioned in the passage can be described as _________.
A. smart but expensive B. intelligent and convenient
C. smart and environmentally-friendly D. fashionable and energy-saving
64. How is the passage mainly developed?
A. By inferring B. By listing examples. C. By comparing. D. By introducing a practical method.
65. The author of the text mainly _________.
< br /> A. calls on people to care for the old B. encourages the old to live with dignity
C. introduces a new houseD. promotes a new house

Heavy downpours last month in Rhode Island led to widespread flooding, causing millions of dollars in property damage and leaving thousands homeless. The floodwaters also poured vast amounts of raw sewage (sewage) into the rivers and streams that flow into Narragansett Bay.
It sounds like the makings of an environmental nightmare, but in fact it just the opposite. To scientists delight, the sewage-loaded floodwaters have caused a well-timed growth of phytoplankton , the microscopic creatures that form the foundation of marine food chains. With more food available for fish, clams and other sea creatures, the bay fisheries industry is expected to benefit.
In decades past, Narragansett Bay typically experienced a late winter / early spring algal (algae) bloom that fed creatures up and down the water column. But in recent years, the waters of Narragansett Bay have warmed greatly, interrupting this seasonal event.
Mark Berman, an oceanographer with the National Marine Fisheries Service, said the flood seemed to have sent the bay back to its normal state.
However, local, state and federal officials in Rhode Island have been battling other algal blooms that, by contrast, are causing widespread harm to the Narragansett Bay ecosystem. During summer months, sewage and agricultural runoff flows into the bay, causing large blooms. But instead of becoming food for sea creatures, much of the phytoplankton is consumed by bacteria , which grow fast in the warmer waters. The rapid bacteria growth leads to hypoxiaa decrease of oxygen in the water that can cause large fish kills. One such die-off occurred in 2003, when millions of oxygen-starved fish washed up on the beaches of Narragansett Bay.
The flood positive impact will probably be a one-time event, Mr. Berman said. Meanwhile, efforts to curb the harmful summer blooms continue; in 2008, for instance, Providence completed a $ 359 million sewage tunnel under the city designed to reduce the polluted storm overflow into Narragansett Bay.
66. Scientists believe that the raw sewage flowing into the bay will _______.
A . pollute the island environmentB. cause lots of property damage
C. increase the fisheries production D. destroy the food chains in the bay
67. The potential benefit of fisheries industry relies on the _______.
A. warm temperatures of the bay B. growth of phytoplankton
C. large summer alga bloomsD. consumption of oxygen by bacteria
< br /> 68. People struggle against the summer blooms because they will ________.
A. pollute the local natural environment B. increase the production of fishery industry
C. cause large fish kills of the bay indirectly D. provide too much food for sea creatures
69. It can be inferred that _______. A. money spent on the summer blooms has been wasted B. the government is investing to promote the local fisheries C. research of oceanology should be encouraged D. opinions on the raw sewage impact are currently contradictory 70. The underlined word “curb” in the last paragraph can be defined as “______”.
A. controlB. consume C. cause D. cure
D
In a new article, Zehr, a professor at the University of Victoria, Victoria, British Columbia, describes his success in using the Caped Crusader (Phi canopy Knight) to engage students in the study of physiology.
“Batman (Batman) has such powerful influence on readers because he is a fictional human with superpowers that seem within reach if we only work at it, “writes Zehr, in a new article published in Advances in Physiology Education, a journal of the American Physiological Society. Zehr believes that it is not Batman vast wealth that allows him to protect the citizens of Gotham City (Gotham City), but his dedication to developing a wide range of physical skills.
Zehr uses Batman to establish a framework, grounded in his fictional universe as well as our real one, in order to discuss the various components of exercise and physical training and illustrate how the body physiological systems respond. His experiences in teaching undergraduate courses in physiology and neurophysiology made him realize that connecting science to popular culture helped students understand the lessons better.
He first presented a formal analysis of the personal and physical discipline that would be required to transform an ordinary person into a superhero in his book, Becoming Batman: The Possibility of a Superhero. The book drew on Zehr understanding and work in human movement and the plasticity of nerves and muscles associated with exercise. By coincidence, the book was published in the wake of The Dark Knight, the blockbuster movie which recounts Batman and his arch-enemy, the Joker.
With the casting almost complete for the sequel (sequel), The Dark Knight Rises, Dr. Zehr writes about his experiences connecting science to popular culture, which is captured in the Advances, article, “A Personal View: From Claude Bernard to the Batcave and Beyond: Using Batman as a hook for physiology education. “
71.In Zehr opinion, what makes Batman be able to defend his citizens?
A. his large amount of fortune B. his devotion to developing varieties of physical skills
C. his habit of wearing a cape D. his developing so wide range of magic power
72. Which one of the following statements is TRUE according to the third paragraph?
A. Students of physiology and neurophysiology should have more physical training
B. To become a batman needs developing a wide range of physical skills
C. Only Batman can illustrate the respond of the body physiological system
D. combining science with popular culture can be beneficial to students study
73.To help students study physiology well, Dr.Zehr uses Batman to do the following EXCEPT___
A. set up his theoretical principles of teaching physiology
B. discuss the different components of physical training
C. illustrate the ways of body physiology system responding
D. perform many physiology experiments on the body movement
74.According to the book Becoming Batman, what does the possibility of becoming a superhero mainly lie on?
A. Dr. Zehr formal analyses of the body movement rules
< br /> B. the flexibility of nerves and muscles when being trained well
C. the physical training conducted by Dr. Zehr

Improve The Treatment Of PTSD Can Be Through The Amygdala.
Researchers who have deliberate a popsy with a missing amygdala – the put of the sense believed to contrive fear – report that their findings may staff improve treatment for post-traumatic distress disorder (PTSD) and other anxiety disorders. In it is possible that the first human study confirming that the almond-shaped form is crucial for triggering fear, researchers at the University of Iowa monitored a 44-year-old woman feedback to typically frightful stimuli such as snakes, spiders, dread films and a haunted house, and asked about painful experiences in her past Toprol XL. The woman, identified as SM, does not seem to timidity a large range of stimuli that would normally horrify most people.
Scientists have been studying her for the past 20 years, and their one-time research had already determined that the woman cannot show gratitude fear in others facial expressions. SM suffers from an uncommonly rare disease that destroyed her amygdala. Future observations will conclude if her educate affects anxiety levels for everyday stressors such as banking or health issues, said weigh author Justin Feinstein, a University of Iowa doctoral schoolchild studying clinical neuropsychology. “Certainly, when it comes to fear, she missing it,” Feinstein said Natural penis enlargement. “She so one of a kind in her presentation”.
Researchers said the study, reported in the Dec 16, 2010 arise of the catalogue Current Biology, could distance to immature treatment strategies for PTSD and angst disorders. According to the US National Institute of Mental Health, more than 7,7 million Americans are gripped by the condition, and a 2008 dissection predicted that 300000 soldiers returning from action in the Middle East would test PTSD Electronic cigarette fi. “Because of her leader damage, the patient appears to be safe to PTSD,” Feinstein said, noting that she is otherwise cognitively ordinary and experiences other emotions such as blithesomeness and sadness.
In addition to recording her responses to spiders, snakes and other horrifying stimuli, the researchers reasoned her experience of fear using many standardized questionnaires that probed various aspects of the emotion, such as foreboding of death or veneration of public speaking. She also carried a computerized feeling diary for three months that randomly asked her to deserve her fear level throughout the day.
Perhaps most notable, Feinstein said, are her many near-misses with danger because of her unfitness to avoid dangerous circumstances. In one case, when she was 30, she approached a drugged out-looking the human race past one night who pulled a wound and threatened to kill her.
Because of her complete non-presence of fear, the woman – who heard a choir singing in a reach church – responded, “If you e flourishing to kill me, you e affluent to have to go through my God angels first “. The male abruptly let her go. The mum of three was also seen by her children approaching and picking up a beamy snake near their home with no seeming observe for its ability to harm her, Feinstein said.
And “Its a sublime example of the sort of berth she gets herself in that anyone without brain damage would be able to avoid,” Feinstein said. “With her acumen damage, she so trusting, so approachable to everything. In hindsight, her retort to the houseman with the knife may have saved her bounce because the guy got freaked out “.
Alicia Izquierdo, an aide-de-camp professor of psychology at California State University in Los Angeles , said the swot results go on to existing evidence that the amygdala should be targeted in developing therapies for phobias, dread disorders and PTSD, “where too much respect is a bad thing”. “In immature doses, fear is a orderly thing – it keeps us alive, “Izquierdo said.” For many years, we have known from studies in rodents and monkeys that the amygdala is vital for the natural locution of fear. Those who study the amygdala in animals are limited, however – and can only wager about what this perspicacity region does for the experience of fear “.
So” This is one perspicacity why the study – is so meaningful: We can now order that the amygdala is important for the expression and the subjective go through of fear, “she added. Feinstein said PTSD remedying tactics targeting the amygdala would not incorporate surgically removing or altering it. Rather, it is reason that the amygdala hyperactive response in harrowing situations can be modified over time through repetitively doing things a acquiescent considers scary. “This prolonged jeopardy therapy involves approaching the things causing them bother and fear the most,” Feinstein said caliplus pill. “We don ever want to surgically remodel this area”.

Young people aged 18-29 years old, and this group is more willing to try a single electronic cigarette. According to the World Health Organization, tobacco is the world largest cause of preventable death.

Great
changes have taken place in Tianjin these years. There are more and
more tall buildings. People are having a better life than
before.
But Tianjin, as a big
city , has a large population of over ten million. Too many people
cause traffic jams. Some people have no room to live in. There are
also a number of cars, they add to air pollution and do harm to
people health. More police are needed to protect people from
crime. More general hospitals should be set up.
To solve the < br /> problems, it needs our effort to have a better city.

In the past ten
years, great changes have taken place in Tianjin. Our city has
become more and more beautiful. But there are also very serious
problems-the population of Tianjin is too large. There is not
enough room for so many people. Also, a large population adds to
the pollution and that does harm to our environment. And it
difficult to protect people from crime.
To solve these
problems, we should save energy and protect the environment. We
should obey the “one child” policy as well. I hope we can have a
better life in the future.

In the last 40 years,
great changes have taken place in Tianjin, but there are also many
problems. The factories produce much pollution, it does harm to the
air. The population is too large and there not enough room in the
city. Too many cars add to traffic jams and they make much
noise.
I think we should
walk or ride a bike rather than drive a car. We should plant more
trees and flowers, and we mustn waste energy. All of us will try
our best to make a better city.

Great changes have
taken place in Tianjin. Tianjin is becoming more and more
beautiful. Tall buildings, quiet parks and colourful lights make
lives in Tianjin comfortable. But there are also some problems. The
population of Tianjin is too large. It difficult for people to
find jobs. There are too many cars in the street. It adds to the
heavy traffic. Another serious problem is air pollution. It does
harm to our body.
I
think that we should do something to protect the environment from
pollution. We should control the increasing population to make
Tianjin better and better.
Tianjin is developing
very fast. Great changes have taken place recently. People lives
are getting better and better.
On the other hand,
the development also brings us some problems. Because of the
increasing population, there is more pollution doing harm to our
environment. Too many cars make parking more difficult. No room to
park also adds problems to the city.
To solve the
problems, we need to walk or ride to school instead of driving. We
should plant more trees to protect the environment from pollution.
I hopeful that Tianjin will be more and more
beautiful.
Han Jiaxiu
Great changes have
taken place in Tianjin. The roads are wider and the buildings are
taller. The night vision of Tianjin is very amazing. But there is
more pollution and fewer big trees.
The large population
leads to many environmental problems. We should plant more trees
and build more gardens. Protect Haihe River from pollution and
don throw wastes everywhere.
I hope that Tianjin
will become the greenest city in China.

phone number easy to remember, as long as you can to remind the telephone number (phonetic) word or sentence, and that person or company, or that person or company associate alternative words can. Finally, the telephone company will use the ANC, all the code numbers, not exchange names. Currently, some way of exchange of names still in use.
remember all digital phone number and remember any number of the same. If your doctor telephone number is 940-8212, the doctors and pressure fountain, or copper fountain, fountains associate or price. If you prefer, you can name the numbers and his associate.
electrician if you want to remember the number, the number and power of his associate. Assuming number is 862-9421, you can see a power socket in the fishing to drink brandy, or you can use the fashion brand. No one rules your word must contain the first three numbers, and then the last four digits. You can use any number of any representative. If you think of a word contains all the necessary sound, you use that word. To 720-5127, for example, you might think of canned robbery canslooting, very good, but the word consultant consulting can also make you think of this figure.
The name of the phone number exchange, there is a simple way to deal with. The first word you think of to remind you to be able to swap two letters and two exchange numbers. Then you can remind yourself of any other word or number.
If you want to remember the number is RA3-9110, ram potato rampotatoes this sentence will help you remember. Ram is the first letter of the word ra, followed by a consonant is m, on behalf of 3: RA3. The first word contains only two letters and not a consonant, way easier to find the appropriate words. This condition is necessary, as other voices can be ignored. Therefore, you can use the rampant potato rampant potatoes to represent this number, as rampant rampant still represents RA3.
burning burn or written word can represent BU4: Taro cigarette behalf CI7, plant or plant design book plan on behalf of PL2, and so on. The TN and LW (New York exchange) can not come up with such a word on behalf of the switch, so I invented a set of standards. Ton on behalf of TN, on behalf of low-low LW. So you will know the standard toncowmaftked Dayton cow picture on behalf of TN-73471. After learning how to be single letters of the screen, you will find that way also help to resolve this always.
First, when you use the word on behalf of last four digits, use the basic peg word, which may be a little confusing. If we use the coin file coin file, then how do you know the coin file coinfile, not coins file file file coin? In fact, this has little, you dial the phone number several times after the initial formation of the picture is not absolutely necessary, you have Remember that number. But you can solve this problem, as long as the word is used to remember the second word is not a basic peg words can be. If the habit, you will know the basic peg word always standing in the front. Therefore, the number 5230 you will not use the mouse lion lion mouse, you will be confused with lion lion mess, moss moss or velvet moose.
The second point is that you can save the exchange name, thereby eliminating the need to form a word Han Yun exchange names. You can watch telephone dial, the letters into numbers, the problem is solved. But the telephone dial was not always want to use there, the best way to remember it. Once the mind, you can immediately name any exchange or letters into numbers.
compile a word or sentence to remind ourselves that each number on the dial of the three letters, the letters and numbers (peg word) think up. We have several suggestions: really see the picture, then you will immediately remember the dial.
2 – ABC: Imagine Noah Noah is learning ABC.
3 – DEF: imagine the sound of your mother Ma deaf.
4 – GHI: see American soldiers GI drinking rye whiskey rye, or you drink rye whiskey rye, and the mood high.
5 – JKL: Jackal jackal imagine the police (law? law).
6 – MNO: Imagine shoes shoe said, “I? not” (Me? No); shoe or shoes on O is very bad mean.
7 – PRS: see cattle cow with a huge bag purse.
8 – TUV: imagine Ivy ivy is very strong and tough (reminds you of TUV).
9 – WXY: bee bee the same as snails waxy.
The remaining part of the discussions is the need for area code. Only the seven-digit area code phone number into the tens digit. Think of a word to represent the area code, put it in the became the initial association. If Mr. Smith telephone number is (201) 6489470, you can imagine yourself with blacksmith blacksmith hammer to crack the nest nest (201); sheriff sheriff (648) to break the break (9470) of your hammer.
