14、y options soon.BEveryone knows that death is natural, but do you have any idea of the process of dying? Modern scientists divide the process of dying into two stages clinical or temporary death and biological death. Clinical death occurs when the vital organs, such as the heart or lungs, have stoppe
15、d functioning, but have not suffered permanent damage. The organism can still be saved. Biological death occurs when changes in the organism lead to the “breaking up” of vital cells and tissues. Death is then unchangeable and final.Scientists have been seeking a way to prolong the period of clinical
16、 death so that the organism can remain alive before biological death occurs. The best method developed so far involves cooling the organism, combined with narcotic (麻醉) sleep. By slowing down the bodys metabolism (新陈代谢), cooling delays the processes leading to biological death.To show how this works
17、, scientists performed an experiment on a six-year-old female monkey called Keta. The scientist put Keta to sleep with a narcotic. Then they surrounded her body with ice-bags and began checking her body temperature. When it had dropped to 28 degrees the scientists began taking blood out from an arte
18、ry (动脉). The monkeys blood pressure decreased and an hour later both the heart and breathing stopped: clinical death set in. For twenty minutes Keta remained in this state. Her temperature dropped to 22 degrees. At this point the scientists pumped blood into an artery in the direction of the heart a
19、nd started artificial breathing. After two minutes Ketas heart became active once more. After fifteen minutes, spontaneous (自发的) breathing began, and after four hours Keta opened her eyes and lifted her head. After six hours, when the scientists tried to give her a penicillin (青霉素) injection, Keta s

Keta was healthyC. Keta was ill D. Keta was crazy.七选五阅读A laugh track,sometimes called canned laughter,is a
23、 collection of pre-recorded audience laughter and applause sounds added to television programs during post-production.The main purpose of the track is to trigger(激发) a response from home viewers who may not understand all of the intended humour when watching a taped sitcom(situation comedy). 1 There
24、fore,canned laughter causes natural reactions to comedies. 2 The producers of the Hank McCune Show added canned laughter after the shows taping.Until that time,other radio and television comedies used a live studio audience or no canned laughter at all.In 1953,a sound engineer named Charley Douglass
25、 invented the Laff Box,a small electronic device(装置) containing numerous sounds of recorded laughter and applause.It is said that Charley Douglass selected almost all of his laugh track material from in-studio recordings of several different comedy shows. 3 During the 1970s,many sitcoms chose to get
26、 rid of the practice altogether or mix live audience reactions with the canned laughter.Filming a show in front of a live audience became a symbol of honour. 4 Live audiences did not always provide a usable response,especially after a long day of retakes. Today,the same company created by Charley Do
27、uglass offers an improved digital version of the original Laff Box. 5 Most sitcoms produced today are still recorded 5in front of a live audience,but a more subtle laugh track can be used to improve weak responses. A.However,there was a problem.B.The belief is that laughter creates laughter.C.The fi
28、rst known use of a recorded laugh track is said to be in 1950.D.The effective use of canned laughter is considered more of an art than a science.E.Douglass recorded different styles of laughter and applause without the sound of dialogue.F.If this is true,audience reactions in modern sitcoms may have
29、 actually been recorded several years ago.G.In addition to the original laughter and applause,there are tracks for foreign audiences and childrens shows.书面表达(2017安徽“皖南八校”第二次联考)假如你是学生会主席李华,为了让外国人了解中国传统文化,学生会将进行“唐诗吟诵大赛”(Tang Poetry Recitation Contest),特邀请学校国际部学生参加,请你根据提示写一则通知。主要内容包括:1.大赛目的和意义;2.主办方:校学
