填空题We all believe that technology plays a key role in (shape) ______ our life styles.

填空题 Every now and then a study comes along whose chief interest lies in how peculiarly askew its findings seem to be from the common perception of things. Sometimes, of course, the "surprising new study" itself turns out to be off in some way. But if the data are fundamentally sound, then what you really want to know is why sensible people hold such a contrary view. 41___________________. Researchers took a closer look at an earlier study that had been widely interpreted, when it was first published in 2000, as proof that the homework monster was growing, and insatiable. A Time magazine cover article spawned a minigenre of trend stories, all peopled by pale, exhausted kids and bewildered boomer parents whose own homework memories seemed to encompass only felt puppets and shoe-box dioramas. But the new report points out that while the amount of time schoolchildren 12 and under devoted to study at home did indeed grow between 1981 and 1997, the increase was small: an average of 23 minutes per week. 42___________________. So why do so many parents seem to think otherwise? One answer is that the real increase in homework that has been documented is among younger children. In 1981, for instance, one-third of 6- to 8-year-olds had some homework; one-half did in the late 90's. 43___________________. Since children 6 to 8 are the ones we particularly like to think of as engaged in unstructured play--we imagine them riding bikes in the honeyed light of waning afternoons, even when what they might well be doing, in the absence of homework, is watching TV-homework for them seems like one of those heavy-handed incursions on the freedom of childhood. 44___________________. These children go to elite private schools or to demanding public ones where the competitive pressures are such that they either really do have hours of homework each night or take hours finishing it because they (or their parents) are so anxious that it be done well. They come from the demographic that makes a cultural, almost a. moral, ideal of enrolling children in soccer and oboe lessons and karate and ballet, and so their time really is at a premium. 45___________________. A. Moreover, 20 percent fewer children between the ages of 9 and 12 were doing homework at all in 1997 than in 1981. And high-school students spent no more time on homework than they did in previous decades. B. That is certainly the question raised by a Brookings Institution report released last month showing that the amount of time kids devote to homework has not, in fact, significantly increased over the last two decades. C. Behind the seeming contradictions of steady homework levels and the anti-homework backlash, in other words, is the reality of social class. D. They are likely to have busy professional parents, oversubscribed themselves but with an investment in seeing their children produce book reports of a kind that teachers, counselors and, in time, college admissions boards will find impressive. E. Anti-homework crusades are not new-in 1901, for example, California passed a law abolishing homework for grades one through eight-but they have usually been led by the same kinds of people, which is to say, elites. F. Since parents are more likely to have to supervise a first or second grader doing homework than an older child, the earlier launching of a homework regimen might feel like a disproportionate increase in the parental workload. G. But the bigger answer, I suspect, is that the parents we tend to hear from in the press, at school-board meetings and in Internet chat groups, the parents with elaborated, developmentally savvy critiques of standards and curriculums, are parents whose children really are experiencing a time crunch.

填空题It has been made clear that the major ob______ of the new government is to change public opinion, not least about the role of government itself.

填空题A magnificent scene was ______ before the climbers when they reached the hill top.

填空题A. For example, the Moche lords of Sipán in coastal Peru were buried in about AD 400 in fine cotton dress and with exquisite ornaments of bead, gold, and silver. Few burials rival their lavish sepulchres. Being able to trace the development of such rituals over thousands of years has added to our understanding of the development of human intellect and spirit. B. By 40,000 years ago people could be found hunting and gathering food across most of the regions of Africa. Populations in different regions employed various technological developments in adapting to their different environments and climates. C. Archaeological studies have also provided much information about the people who first arrived in the America over 12,000 years ago. D. The first fossil records of vascular plants—that is, land plants with tissue that carries food—appeared in the Silurian period. They were simple plants that had not developed separate stems and leaves. E. Laetoli even reveals footprints of humans from 3.6 million years ago. Some sites also contain evidence of the earliest use of simple tools. Archaeologists have also recorded how primitive forms of humans spread out of Africa into Asia about 1.8 million years ago, then into Europe about 900,000 years ago. F. One research project involves the study of garbage in present-day cities across the United States. This garbage is the modern equivalent of the remains found in the archaeological record. In the future, archaeologists will continue to move into new realms of study. G. Other sites that represent great human achievement are as varied as the cliff dwellings of the ancient Anasazi (a group of early Native Americans of North America) at Mesa Verde, Colorado; the Inca city of Machu Picchu high in the Andes Mountains of Peru; and the mysterious, massive stone portrait heads of remote Easter Island in the Pacific. Archaeological study covers an extremely long span of time and a great variety of subjects. The earliest subjects of archaeological study date from the origins of humanity. These include fossil remains believed to be of human ancestors who lived 3.5 million to 4.5 million years ago. The earliest archaeological sites include those at Hadar, Ethiopia; Laetoli, Tanzania; East Turkana, Kenya; and elsewhere in East Africa. These sites contain evidence of the first appearance of bipedal (upright- walking, apelike early humans). (41) The first physically modern humans, Homo sapiens, appeared in tropical Africa between 200,000 and 150,000 years ago- dates determined by molecular biologists and archaeologists working together. Dozens of archaeological sites throughout Asia and Europe show how people migrated from Africa and settled in these two continents during the last Ice Age (100,000 to 15,000 years ago). (42) Archaeologists have documented that the development of agriculture took place about 10,000 years ago. Early domestication—the planting and harvesting of plants and the breeding and herding of animals— is evident in such places as the ancient settlement of Jericho in Jordan and in Tehuacán Valley in Mexico. Archaeology plays a major role in the study of early civilizations, such as those of the Sumerians of Mesopotamia, who built the city of Ur, and the ancient Egyptians, who are famous for the pyramids near the city of Giza and the royal sepulchres (tombs) of the Valley of the Kings at Thebes. (43) Archaeological research spans the entire development of phenomena that are unique to humans. For instance, archaeology tells the story of when people learned to bury their dead and developed beliefs in an afterlife. Sites containing signs of the first simple but purposeful burials in graves date to as early as 40,000 years ago in Europe and Southwest Asia. By the time people lived in civilizations, burials and funeral ceremonies had become extremely important and elaborate rituals. (44) Archaeology also examines more recent historical periods. Some archaeologists work with historians to study American colonial life, for example. They have learned such diverse information as how the earliest colonial settlers in Jamestown, Virginia, traded glass beads for food with native Algonquian peoples; how the lives of slaves on plantations reflected their roots in Africa; and how the first major cities in the United States developed.

填空题Translate the following passage into Chinese．Write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET．(中山大学2011研，考试科目：基础英语)The period of Chinese scientific activity did not begin until the first years of the Republic. The older reformers only introduced a book knowledge of the sciences, without fully understanding their intellectual significance, without adequate equipment for laboratory work, and without adequately trained leaders to organize the studies and researches. Most of the textbooks on science were translated by men who admired science most sincerely but who had only a very superficial book knowledge of the subjects in the Japanese schools, and never did real laboratory work or undertook field expeditions. The schools were beginning to have classroom experiments in physics and chemistry, and botanical and zoological specimens: but they were as bookish as the textbooks, and were useless for the training of scientific workers.

填空题Translate the following passage into English．Write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET．(天津外国语大学2012研，考试科目：英语语言文学) 我以为从人类文化和快乐的观点论起来，人类历史中的杰出新发明，其能直接有力地有助于我们的享受空闲、友谊、社交和谈天者，莫过于吸烟、饮酒、饮茶的发明。 烟酒茶的适当享受，只能在空闲、友谊和乐于招待之中发展出来。因为只有富于交友心，择友极慎，天然喜爱闲适生活的人士，方有圆满享受烟酒茶的机会。享受这三件东西，也如享受雪月花草一般，须有适当的同伴。中国的生活艺术家最注意此点，例如：看花须和某种人为伴，赏景须有某种女子为伴，听雨最好须在夏日山中寺院内躺在竹榻上。总括起来说，赏玩一样东西时，最紧要的是心境。我们对每一种事物，各有一种不同的心境。不适当的同伴，常会败坏心境。所以生活艺术家的出发点就是：他如更想要享受人生，则第一个必要条件即是和性情相投的人交朋友，须尽力维持这友谊，如一个下棋名手宁愿跑一千里的长途去会一个同志一般。

填空题Bob: Have a good time.Linda: ______

填空题Most people would not object to living a few years longer than normal, as long as it meant they could live those years in good health. Sadly, the only proven way to extend the lifespan of an animal in this way is to reduce its calorie intake. Studies going back to the 1930s have shown that a considerable reduction in consumption ( about 50% ) can extend the lifespan of everything from dogs to nematode worms by between 30% and 70%. Although humans are neither dogs nor worms, a few people are willing to give the calorie-restricted diet a try in the hope that it might work for them, too. But not many--as the old joke has it, give up the things you enjoy and you may not live longer, but it will sure seem as if you did. Now, though, work done by Marc Hellerstein and his colleagues at the University of California, Berkeley, suggests that it may be possible to have, as it were, your cake and eat it too. Or, at least, to eat 95% of it. Their study, to be published in the American Journal of Physiology--Endocrinology and Metabolism, suggests that significant gains in longevity might be made by a mere 5% reduction in calorie intake. The study was done on mice rather than people. But the ubiquity of previous calorie-restriction results suggests the same outcome might well occur in other species, possibly including humans. However, you would have to fast on alternate days. (41) ______ Cancer is the uncontrolled growth of cells. For a cancer to develop efficiently, it needs multiple mutations to accumulate in the DNA of the cell that becomes the tumor's ancestor. (42) ______ A slower rate of cell division thus results in a slower accumulation of cancer-causing mutations. (43) ______ Heavy water is heavy because the hydrogen in it weighs twice as much as ordinary hydrogen (it has a proton and a neutron in its nucleus, instead of just a proton). Chemically, however, it behaves like its lighter relative. This means, among other things, that it gets incorporated into DNA as that molecule doubles in quantity during cell division. (44) ______ Dr Hellerstein first established how much mice eat if allowed to feed as much as they want. Then he set up a group of mice that were allowed to eat only 95% of that amount. In both cases, he used the heavy-water method to monitor cell division. The upshot was that the rate of division in the calorie-restricted mice was 37% lower than that in those mice that could eat as much as they wanted--which could have a significant effect on the accumulation of cancer-causing mutations. (45) ______[A] To stop this happening, cells have DNA-repair mechanisms. But if a cell divides before the damage is repaired, the chance of a successful repair is significantly reduced.[B] Bingeing and starving is how many animals tend to feed in the wild. The uncertain food supply means they regularly go through cycles of too much and too little food ( it also means that they are often restricted to eating less than they could manage if food were omnipresent).[C] But calorie-reduction is not all the mice had to endure. They were, in addition, fed only on alternate days: bingeing one day and starving the next. So, whether modern man and woman, constantly surrounded by food and advertisements for food, would really be able to forgo eating every other day is debatable.[D] Why caloric restriction extends the lifespan of any animal is unclear, but much of the smart money backs the idea that it slows down cell division by denying cells the resources they need to grow and proliferate. One consequence of that slow-down would be to hamper the development of cancerous tumors.[E] So, by putting heavy water in the diets of their mice, the researchers were able to measure how much DNA in the tissues of those animals had been made since the start of the experiment (and by inference how much cell division had taken place), by the simple expedient of extracting the DNA and weighing it.[F] The second reason, according to Elaine Hsieh, one of Dr Hellerstein's colleagues, is that cutting just a few calories overall, but feeding intermittently, may be a more feasible eating pattern for some people to maintain than making small reductions each and every day.[G] At least, that is the theory. Until now, though, no one has tested whether reduced calorie intake actually does result in slower cell division. Dr Hellerstein and his team were able to do so using heavy water as a chemical "marker" of the process.
