It began as a small village beside the River Wensum. At the time of the Norman invasion in 1066 it had
9、 grown to become one of the largest towns in England.With two cathedrals and a mosque(清真寺), Norwich has long been a popular centre for various religions.

14、ll“. The people of Norwich lived with a very large hold n the middle of their city for over two years, as builders dug up the main car park.

19、Attention to the Details1 Attention to detail is something everyone can and should do-especially in a tight job market.

20、esumes(简历)arrive with stains. Some candidates dont bother to spell the companys name correctly. Once I see a mistake, I eliminate the candidate,“Crossley concludes. “if they cannot take care of these details,why should we trust them with a job?“3 Can we pay too much attention to details? Absolutely.
21、 Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. “To keep from losing the forest for the trees,“says Charles Garfield, associate professor at the University of California, San Francisco,“we must constantly ask ourselves how the details were working on fit

They can hold your books, your lunch, and a charge of clothes, leaving your hands free to do other things. Someday, if you dont mind carrying a heavy load, your backpacks might also pow
28、er your MP3 player, keep your cell phone running, and maybe even light your way home.Lawrence C. Rome and his colleagues from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, Mass. , have invented a backpack that makes electricity from energy produce
29、d while its wearer walks. In military actions, search and-rescue operations, and scientific field studies, people rely increasingly on cell phones, global positioning system (GPS) receivers, night-vision goggles, and other battery-powered devices to get around and do their work. The backpacks electr
30、icity-generating feature could dramatically reduce the amount of a wearers load now devoted to spare batteries, report Rome and his colleagues in the Sept. 9 Science.The backpacks electricity-crew, ring powers depend on springs used to hang a cloth pack from its metal frame. The frame sits against t
31、he wearers back, and the whole pack moves up and down as the person walks. A gear mechanism converts vertical movements of the pack to rotary motions of an electrical generator, producing up to 7.4 watts.Unexpectedly, tests showed that wearers of the new backpack alter their gaits in response to the
32、 packs oscillations, so that they carry loads more comfortably and with less effort than they do ordinary backpacks. Because of that surprising advantage, Rome plans to commercialize both electric and non-electric versions of the backpack.The backpack could be especially useful for soldiers, scienti
33、sts, mountaineers, and emergency workers who typically carry heavy backpacks. For the rest of us, power-generating backpacks could make it possible to walk, play video games, watch TV, and listen to music, all at the same time. Electricity-generating packs arent on the market yet, but if you do get

39、have such a backpack.B第二篇/BValuing ChildhoodThe value of childhood is easily blurred (变得模糊不清) in todays world. Consider some recent developments: The child-murderers in the Jonesboro, Ark. schoolyard shooting case were convicted and sentenced. Two boys, 7 and 8, were charged in the murder of an 11 y
40、ear old girl in Chicago.Children who commit horrible crimes appear to act of their own will. Yet, as legal proceedings in Jonesboro showed, the one boy who was able to address the court couldnt begin to explain his acts, though he tried to apologize. There may have been a motive-youthful jealousy(妒忌
41、) and resentment. But a deeper question remains:Why did these boys and others in similar trouble apparently lack any inner, moral restraint?That question echoes for the accused in Chicago, young as they are. They wanted the girls bicycle, a selfish impulse common enough among kids.Redemption (拯救) is
42、 a practical necessity. How can value be restored to young lives distorted by acts of violence? The boys in Jonesboro and in Chicago will be confined in institutions for a relatively short time. Despite horror at what was done, children are not-cannot be-dealt with as adults, not if a people wants t
43、o consider itself civilized. Thats why politicians cries for adult treatment of youthful criminals ultimately miss the point.But the moral void(真空)that invites violence has many sources. Family instability contributes. So does economic stress. That void, however, can be filled. The work starts with
44、parents, who have to ask themselves whether theyre doing enough to give their children a firm sense of right and wrong. Are they really monitoring their activities and their developing processes of thought?Schools, too, have a role in building character. So do youth organizations. So do law enforcem
45、ent agencies, which can do more to inform the young about laws, their meaning, and their observance (遵守).The goal, ultimately, is to allow all children a normal passage from childhood to adulthood (成年), so that tragic gaps in moral judgement are less likely to occur. The relative few who fill such g
46、aps with acts of violence hint at many others who dont go that far, but who lack the moral foundations childhood should provide-and which progressive human society relies on.(分数:15.00)(1).The two boys in Chicago were(分数:3.00)A.shotB.murderedC.sentencedD.accused(2).Thy boys in Jonesboro and Chicago a
