19、ple who talk of the village as being “dead“ are talking nothing but nonsense, as in their hearts they must surely know. No, the village is not dead.

20、o. When many girls left home to go into service in town many miles away, and men also left home in increasing numbers in search of work, and home was where work was. There are still a number of people alive today who can remember what “village life“ meant in the early years of the present century. I
21、t meant finding your entertainment in the village of within walking distance of it. It meant housewives tied to the home all day and every day. It meant going to bed early to save lamp-oil and coal. Then came the First World War and the Second World War. After each war, new ideas, new attitudes, new
22、 trades and occupations were revealed to villagers. The long-established order of society was no longer taken for granted.

Earth Day was
29、 first observed on April 22, 1970. The tradition began in the United States and is now an international focal point for people who are concerned about the environment. Imagine a time before the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Endangered Species Act, and even the Environmental Protection Agen
30、cy. Hot topics of the time were industrial pollution, nuclear accidents, oil dependency, pesticides, and a variety of social issues. However, policymakers were not yet acting on many important environmental problems. Earth Day grew out of grassroots action and institutional support. Student leader D
31、enis Hayes and Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson were two key organizers for the first event. Over 20 million concerned citizens rallied for clean air and water. College students were a major force in the campaign, although participants of all ages were involved. Still, we cannot really credit a hand
32、ful of individuals for the success of Earth Day. After all, a major message of Earth Day is that every single person has an important role in the environment. The first Earth Day was very successful, inspiring the passage of congressional protection for air, water, and endangered species. Momentum f
33、rom the demonstration also fueled the formation of the Environmental Protection Agency. Thirty years later, the focus has changed but the urgency remains the same. Due to increasing amounts of scientific evidence that fossil fuels are changing the global climate, the theme for Earth Day 2000 is Clea
34、n Energy.

37、 Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares(噩梦). Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help
38、people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase(抹去), the effect of painful memories. In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals th
39、at fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased. The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills
40、that prevent or treat soldiers“ troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. “Some memories can ruin people“s lives. They come back to you when you don“t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions
41、.“ said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve a lot of that suffering.“ But those who are against the research say that it is very dangerous to change memories because memories give us our identity(物质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the
42、past. “All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I“m not sure we want to wipe those memories out,“ said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.（分数：10.00）(1).The passage is mainly about _.（分数：2.00）A.a new medical inventionB.a new research on me

45、mories can ruin people“s lives.B.People want to get rid of bad memories.C.Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.D.The pill will reduce people“s sufferings from bad memories.(5).The word “scars“ in Paragraph One is close in meaning to _.（分数：2.00）A.good storiesB.painsC.experiencesD.me
