填空题Translate the following passage into Chinese．Write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET．(中山大学2013研，考试科目：基础英语)Carrara, shut in by the great hills, is a very picturesque town in Italy. Few tourists stay there: and the people are nearly all connected, in one way or another, with the mining of marble. There are also villages among the caves, where the workmen live. It contains a beautiful little Theatre, newly built: and it is an interesting custom there, to form the chorus of laborers in the marble mines, who are self-taught and sing by ear. I heard them in a comic opera, and in an act of "Norma" : and they performed remarkably well:unlike the common people of Italy generally, who(with some exceptions among the Neapolitans)sing terribly out of tune, and have very disagreeable singing voices.Neapolitans: 那不勒斯人

Two types of stress:{{/B}} There are basically two types of stress placed on human beings--physical and mental.{{B}}42. Effects of stress--physical or emotional:{{/B}} Whether physical or emotional in origin, stress causes the body to react in the same way.{{B}}43.

People cannot always be cheerful and helpful to every one they meet. Another good lesson is that mistakes should be forgotten, not lingered over and brought out to examine periodically.{{B}}45.

But many people do feel guilty over such apparently innocent actions. Excessive guilt can sour all of life and make life not worth living; it can also cause self-hatred as well as other fears and anxieties that cause all life's successes to be bittersweet, at best.[B] Stress from physical activity, if not carried too far, is actually beneficial. Exercise relaxes you and may help forget about mental and emotional stress. But mental stress is almost always bad for you. If mental stress is unrelieved l it can actually cause diseases such as ulcers, migraine headaches, heart problems, or mental illness.[C] Just as we need a little guilt--to keep us correct--and a little worry--to make us plan ahead--we need a little stress to stay interested in life. But when stress begins to bother you, you might as well change your routine. Take your mind off your worries with some physical activity; you may discover a solution you have overlooked before.[D] Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and iii health.[E] Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities, others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties.[F] In the first stage, your body prepares to meet the stress. The heartbeat and respiration rates increase, and the pupils of the eyes dilate; the blood sugar level increases, and the rate of perspiration speeds up, while digestion slows down as blood and muscular activity is diverted elsewhere. In the second stage, your body returns to normal and repairs any damage caused by the stressful situation. However, if stress continues, the body cannot repair itself, and the final stage, exhaustion, then begins. If this stage continues, if for example you are frustrated by your work and continue to be frustrated for a long time, physical or emotional damage will occur. These stages of stress reaction are always the same, whether the stress is caused by a cross-country run, a first date, buying a house, or narrowly missing an automobile accident.[G] This common emotion is useful to have when it helps us to realize that we have, in fact, committed some error, violated our own rules or social rules. If we did not feel guilty, we would never do anything except the things that brought us immediate pleasure--we'd never obey the law, work, exercise, or even study in school, unless we wanted to do so in the first place. As a person's conscience develops, guilt feelings become inevitable; guilt is the sorrow we experience when we know we have done something incorrect.

填空题To understand better the forces that control human aging and longevity, we have tried to determine whether the longer lifespan of females might be part of some grand Darwinian scheme. Gender differences in longevity have been (51) in other members of the animal kingdom: in fact, in almost all species that have been observed in the wild, females (52) to live longer than males. Female macaques live an (53) of eight years longer than males, for example, and female sperm whales outlive their male (54) by an average of 30 years. It seems that a species' lifespan is roughly correlated (55) the length of time that its young remain (56) on adults. We have come to believe that (57) a significant, long-term investment of energy is required to ensure the survival of offspring, evolution favors longevity—in (58) , female longevity. Indeed, we believe that the necessity for female (59) in the human reproductive cycle has (60) the length of the human lifespan. We start with the assumption (61) the longer a woman lives and the more slowly she ages, the (62) offspring she can produce and rear to adulthood. Long-lived women (63) have a selective advantage over women who die young. Long-lived men would (64) have an evolutionary advantage over their shorter-lived (65) .But primary studies suggest that men's (66) capacity is actually limited more by their access (67) females than by lifespan. Hence, the advantage of longevity for men would (68) be nearly as significant as it is for women. And because males historically are not as (69) in child care as females, in the not so distant evolutionary past the survival of a man's offspring depended not so (70) on how long he lived as on how long the children's mother lived.

填空题Directions: Read the following text and answer questions by deciding each of the statements after the text is True or False. Choose T if the statement is true or F if the statement is not true. A Tree Project Helps the Genes of Champions Live on As an eagle wheels overhead against a crystalline blue sky, Martin Flanagan walks toward a grove of towering cottonwood trees beside the Yellowstone River, which is the color of chocolate milk due to the spring rain. As Mr. Flanagan leaves the glaring sun of the prairie and enters the shady grove, his eyes search for specific tree. As he reaches a narrow-leaf cottonwood, a towering giant, he cranes his neck to look at the top, "This is the one I plan to nominate for state champion," he says, petting the bark with his hand. "It"s a beauty, isn"t it?" When Europeans first came to North America, one of the largest primeval forests in the world covered much of the continent. Experts say a squirrel could have traveled from the Atlantic coast to the Mississippi River without touching the ground. But only about 3 percent of America"s native old-growth forest remains, and many of the trees they hold are those that were not big enough to attract a logger"s eye. The result is a generation of trees that barely resemble the native forests that once covered the country. That makes some scientists suspect that the surviving forests have lost much of their genetic quality, the molecular muscle that made them dominate the landscape. When the loggers swept through, these scientists say, only poor specimens were left to reproduce. Other researchers wonder whether environmental factors or just plain luck may explain a good part of the supertrees" success. To answer those questions, the mightiest trees of their types, or genetically identical offspring, must be preserved for study, and that is what is being done by a handful of enthusiasts, including Mr. Flanagan and David Milarch, a nurseryman Copemish, Michigan. They are searching out the largest tree of each species and taking cuttings of new growth to make copies of genetic clones of the giants. With tissue culture and grafting, they have reproduced 52 of the 827 living giants and are planting the offspring in what they call "living libraries." More than 20,000 offspring have been planted. The work is part of the Champion Tree Project, which began in 1996 with financial help from the National Tree Trust, a nonprofit group in Washington. "Those big trees are the last links to the boreal forests," Mr. Milarch, president of the Champion Tree Project, said. State and federal agencies and private organizations have been keeping track of the largest trees in each state for some time. The largest effort is the National Register of Big Trees, run by American Forests, a 125-year-old nonprofit group based in Washington. But the Champion Tree Project takes things a step further by making it possible for the largest trees to live on. Eventually the Champion Tree Project hopes to reproduce enough genetically superior trees for a nationwide reforestation project. The offspring of the native trees, should they prove genetically superior, could be especially valuable in urban settings, where the average tree lives just 7 to 10 years. But things like soil conditions, moisture and other environmental factors can also affect the success of the trees.
