SECTION 3

Directions: Each passage in this group is followed by questions based on its content. After reading a passage, choose the best answer to each question. Answer all questions following a passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage.

Hitherto, there is no evidence yet that would definitively prove whether or

not some dinosaurs were warm-blooded, but scientists have begun to investigate

oxygen isotopic abundances in the annual growth bands of teeth or bones of high

latitude, hence seasonally influenced, terrestrial dinosaurs. The ratio of oxygen

(5) isotopes depends on temperature, and an absence of seasonal variations in

oxygen 18—a heavy version of the common oxygen 16 atom—would strongly

suggest that the animals maintained a constant internal temperatures. Such a

finding would not, however, constitute "proof" that dinosaurs were warm

blooded, as there are external mechanisms that cold-blooded animals employ to

(10) regulate body temperatures and thereby influence metabolic rates. More

nettlesome is that proof would have to come from discovery of intact dinosaur

remains in which the soft tissue had not been replaced or altered, and from

which the biomolecules responsible for thermoregulation could be extracted

identified and characterized. Such a proof is unlikely, as it would require an

(15) almost impossible level of preservation over 65 million years, plus the advent of

biotechnology that does not yet exist.

The author's primary purpose is to

A．answer a theoretical question in the field of dinosaur thermoregulation

B．discuss the current state of research in the field of dinosaur thermoregulation

C．resolve a dispute in the field of dinosaur thermoregulation research

D．predict a future crisis in the field of dinosaur thermoregulation research

E．suggest some of the possible benefits of a technique in dinosaur thermoregulation research

Study the following abbreviated essay outline. Then choose the most appropriate concluding paragraph. When computing technology is making an ever-increasing impact on many aspects of the production and life of mankind, computers have been widely applied in almost every field. However, the question of whether there are more benefits than drawbacks for young children using a computer everyday has triggered a wide debate. As far as I am concerned, I tend to believe that the advantages outweigh disadvantages for the following reasons. For one thing, in modern society, computer is used in many different fields such as health, education and business. It has become an indispensable part in our life… For another thing, some computer knowledge is required for the job, so great importance should be attached to it. Some people consider that it is not good for children to use computer everyday, because sitting in front of a screen for too long can damage both the eyes and the physical posture of young children. But we can cope with this problem by limiting the time of using computers and giving proper supervision for them… ...

A、Although, to some extent, computers have brought people great convenience in getting information, entertainment and contact with others, especially for those businessmen, for those youngsters, typically those teenagers who are not rational enough to control themselves, computers should not be allowed to intrude into their daily life.

B、All in all, everything has two sides. Whether computers will do us good or harm all depend on how we use them.

C、In conclusion, I strongly believe that using computer everyday brings more benefits than drawbacks to young children. The most important aspect depends on that the young children need proper guidance.

D、To sum up, computers benefit young children a lot and also bring about some negative influence on children.

tages seems difficult to fulfill Many innovations that were once heavily supported and publicized have since fallen by the wayside. The proposals themselves were technically feasible, but they proved to be economically unenviable and to yield food products culturally unacceptable to their consumers.

One characteristic common to unsuccessful food innovations has been that, even with extensive government support, they often have not been technologically adapted or culturally acceptable to the people for whom they had been developed. A successful new technology, therefore, must fit the entire sociocultural system in which it is to find a place Security of crop yield, practicality of storage, and costs are much more significant than what had previously been realized by the advocates of new technologies.

The adoption of new food technologies depends on more than these technical and cultural considerations; economic factors and governmental policies also strongly influence the ultimate success of any innovation. Economists in the Anglo-American tradition have taken the lead in investigating the economics of technological innovation. Although they exaggerate in claiming that profitability is the key factor guiding technical change -- they completely disregard the substantial effects of culture—they are correct in stressing the importance of profits. Most technological innovations in agriculture can be fully used only by large landowners and are only adopted if these profit-oriented business people believe that the innovation will increase their incomes, Thus innovations that carry high rewards for big agribusiness groups will be adopted even if they harm segments of the population and reduce the availability of food in a country. Further, should s new technology promise to alter substantially the profits and losses associated with any production system, those with economic power will strive to maintain and improve their own positions. Therefore, although technical advances in food production and processing will perhaps be needed to ensure food availability, meeting food needs will depend much more on equalizing economic power among the various segments of the populations within the developing countries themselves.

Japan"s 24-hour convenience stores， already struggling with lagging sales and growth， may soon face yet another threat——moves to limit business hours and close the stores late at night. The prefecture of Saitama， which borders Tokyo， may follow in the footsteps of the western city of Kyoto and urge convenience stores to close during late night hours in an effort to limit carbon dioxide emissions.

Kyoto， a former capital， wants to persuade convenience and other 24-hour stores to close late at night so as to improve evening views of the city and cut down on energy use. The Nikkei said closures could last from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. The move is strongly opposed by the industry， which fears a withering impact on an already troubled sector also grappling with the. specter of a higher tobacco tax， which could hit overall sales.

"Even if we only operate the stores for 16 hours， we can"t stop the refrigerators，" said Toshiro Yamaguchi， the president of Seven-Eleven Japan Co. He said such cuts in operating hours wouldreduce each store"s profit by 20 percent. "If this happens， our current business model will lose its foundation. "

Analysts said that while it is difficult to estimate the potential impact of the move without a concrete plan， their overall impression was that it was likely to be negative. "This could cut profits and lead to less efficient operations and the increased loss of opportunities，" said Masafumi Shoda， an analyst. " But it depends on the store——urban stores do better than others. There are some in the countryside that are inefficient. ""

Which Japanese city was the first to try to limit convenience store hours？ 查看材料

A.Saitama.

B.Tokyo.

C.Kyoto.

D.Nagoya.

experience was magic. The silent film had extraordinary powers to draw members of an audience into the story, and an equally potent capacity of make their imaginations work. It required the audience to become engaged—to supply voices and sound effects. The audience was the final, creative contributor to the process of making a film.

The finest films of the silent era depended on two elements that we can seldom provide today a large and receptive audience and a well-orchestrated score. For the audience, the fusion of picture and live music added up to more than the sum of the respective parts.

The one word that sums up the attitude of the silent filmmakers is enthusiasm, conveyed most strongly before formulas took shape and when there was more room for experimentation. This enthusiastic uncertainty often resulted in such accidental discoveries as new camera or editing techniques. Some films experimented with players; the 1915 film Regeneration, for example, by using real gangsters and streetwalkers, provided startling local color. Other films, particularly those of Thomas Ince, provided tragic endings as often as films by other companies supplied happy ones.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of silent films survive today in inferior prints that no longer reflect the care that the original technicians put into them. The modern versions of silent films may appear jerky and flickery, but the vast picture palaces did not attract four to six thousand people a night by giving them eyestrain. A silent film depends on its visuals; as soon as you degrade those, you lose elements that go far beyond the image on the surface. The acting in silent was often very subtle and very restrained, despite legends to the contrary.

In paragraph 2, the sentence" For the audience. . . parts, "indicates that______.

A．music was the most important element of silent films

B．silent films rely on a combination of music and image in affecting an audience

C．the importance of music in silent film has been overestimated

D．live music compensated for the poor quality of silent film images
