11、uth, the chances are that at some point you will have heard the exhortation to drink lots of water in order to 2those evil toxins and keep your skin healthy. The exact amount people suggest varies. US-based advice 3eight glasses a day, while in hotter climates people are advised to drink more to 4hi
12、gher rates of sweating. But regardless of the exact volume of water suggested, the principle behind the advice remains the sametaking extra water on board will keep your skin hydrated. In other words, water acts like a moisturiser, but from the inside out. This is such a common idea you might be sur
13、prised at the 5to back up. You might expect there to be countless studies where people are 6two groups, one assigned to sip water all day, the other to drink a normal amount. Then the smoothness of the skin could be 7a month or so later to establish whether sipping more led to smoother skin. In fact
14、 such studies are rare, partly because water cant be patented, so it is hard to find anyone to fund such research when there will be no new 8or cosmetic to sell that could repay the costs. A review by the dermatologist Ronni Wolf at the Kaplan Medical Centre in Israel found just one study looking at
15、 the effect of long-term water intake on the skin. But the results were 9. After four weeks, the group who drank extra mineral water showed a decrease in skin density, which some believe suggests the skin is retaining more moisture, while those who drank tap water showed an increase in skin density.
16、 But regardless of the type of water they drank, it made no difference to their 10or to the smoothness of their skin.（分数：20.00）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_二、Vocabulary and Struc(总题数：16，分数：32.00)7.Part Vocabulary and Structure（分数：2.00）_8.It was unfortunate, b

Such robots usually look like boxes wi
30、th wheels. Though these robots are useful, however, they are extremely expensivethey break easily and they cannot do very many tasks. Because of these problems, scientists have been working on a new and unusual kind of robot. These new robots will look and move like snakes, so they have been given t
31、he name snakebots. The way a snake is shaped allows it to do special things, such as getting into very small spaces, like cracks in rocks. Snakes can also push themselves underground, and climb up different kinds of objects, like rocks and trees. Such abilities account for the usefulness of robots d
32、esigned like snakes, because they will be able to do these things, too. Such robots would be much more effective than regular robots with wheels. Wheeled robots easily get stuck and fall over, but snakebots would not have these problems. They could go almost anywhere and so would be useful for explo
33、ring the different environments of other planets. Since they can carry tools, snakebots would be able to work in space, as well. They could, for example, help repair the International Space Station. How do you make a robot shaped like a snake? A snakebot is put together like a chain, made of about t
34、hirty parts, or modules. Each module is basically the samethey all contain a computer and a wheel to aid movement. The computer in the head of the snake makes the modules work together. If one module fails, another can easily take its place. Snakebot modules can also carry different kinds of tools,
35、as well as cameras. Since each module is actually a robot in itself, each module can work apart from the rest if necessary. The snakebot design is much simpler than that of most common robots. Thus, snakebots will be much less expensive to build. One of the robots sent to Mars cost over a hundred mi
36、llion dollars to build. However, snakebots cost as little as a few hundred dollars to make and could therefore save enormous amounts of money on future space missions. With their versatility and affordability, snakebots will be the way of the future; at least as far as space robots are concerned. Qu

The
38、y do not seem to be any more intelligent than others, so what makes language learning so much easier for them? Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners, we may discover a few of the techniques which make language learning easier for them. 2They do not depend on the book
39、or the teacher: they discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to
40、 learn from mistakes. 3Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language: they look for such a chance. They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to r
41、epeat what they hear or to say strange things: they are willing to make mistakes and try again. When communication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every world. 4They w
42、ant to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn wi
43、th it. 5If you are a successful language learner, you have probably been learning independently , actively, and purposefully. On the other hand, if your language learning has been less than successful, you might as well try some of the techniques outlined above. Questions 6165Complete the passage wi

Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose.C. Successful language learning is active learning.D. Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages.E.
