This is one of the expected conclusions of an official government report to be published this week. Th
30、e report is expected to call for the mobile phone industry to refrain from promoting phone use by children, and to start labeling phones with data on the amount of radiation they emit.The Independent Expert Group on Mobile Phones, chaired by former government chief scientist William Stewart, has spe
31、nt eight months reviewing existing scientific evidence on all aspects of the health effects of using mobile phones. Its report is believed to conclude that because we dont fully understand the nonthermal effects of radiation on human tissue, the government should adopt a precautionary approach, part
32、icularly in relation to children.There is currently no evidence that mobile phones harm users or people living near transmitter masts. But some studies show that cell-phones operating at radiation levels within current safety limits do have some sort of biological effect on the brain.John Tattersall
33、, a researcher on the health effects of radiation at the Defense Evaluation and Research Agencys site at Porton Down, agrees that it might be wise to limit phone use by children. “If you have a developing nervous system, its known to be more susceptible to environmental insults,“ he says, “So if pho
34、nes did prove to be hazardous which they havent yetit would be sensible.“In 1998, Tattersall showed that radiation levels similar to those emitted by mobile phones could alter signals from brain cells in slices of rat brain, “What weve found is an effect, but we dont know if its hazardous,“ he says.
35、Alan Preece of the University of Bristol, who found last year that microwaves increase reaction times in test subjects, agreed that childrens exposure would be greater. “Theres a lot less tissue in the way, and the skill is thinner, so childrens heads are considerably closer,“ he says.Stewarts repor
36、t is likely to recommend that the current British safety standards on energy emissions from cell-phones should be cut to the level recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection, which is one-fifth of the current British limit. “The extra safety factor of five is so
37、mewhat arbitrary,“ says Michael Clark of the National Radiological Protection Board. “But we accept that its difficult for the UK to have different standards from an international body.“61 Just because it has not been confirmed yet whether mobile phone emissions can harm human tissue, according to t
38、he government report, does not mean that_.（A）the government should prohibit children from using cell-phones（B） we should put down the phone for the sake of safety（C） the industry can have a right to promote phone use（D）children are safe using cell-phones62 Tattersall argues that it is wise to refrai
39、n mobile phone use by children in terms of_.（A）their neural development（B） their ill-designed cell-phones（C） the frequency of their irrational use（D）their ignorance of its possible health effects63 On the issue in question, Preece_.（A）does not agree with Tattersall（B） tries to remove the obstacles i
40、n the way（C） asks for further investigation（D）would stand by Stewart64 What is worrisome at present is that the UK_.（A）is going to turn deaf ears to the voice of Stesarts plan（B） finds it difficult to cut the current safety standards on phone use（C） maintains different standards on safety limit from
41、 the international ones（D）does not even impose safety limit on the mobile phones energy emissions65 Which of the following can be the best candidate for the title of the passage?（A）Brain Wave.（B） For Adults Only.（C） Catch Them Young.（D）The Answer in the Air.65 Advances in cosmetic dentistry and plas
42、tic surgery have made it possible to correct facial birth defects, repair damaged teeth and tissue, and prevent or greatly delay the onset of tooth decay and gum disease. As a result, more people smile more often and more openly today than ever in the past, and we can expect more smiles in the futur
43、e.Evidence of the smiles ascent may be seen in famous paintings in museums and galleries throughout the world. The vast majority of prosperous bigwigs(要人), voluptuous nudes, or middle-class family members in formal portraits and domestic scenes appear to have their mouths firmly closed. Soldiers in
44、battle, children at play, beggars, old people, and especially villains may have their mouths open; but their smiles are seldom attractive, and more often suggest strain or violence than joy.Smiles convey a wide range of meanings in different eras and cultures, says art historian Angus Trumble, curre
45、ntly curator(馆长)of Yale Universitys Center for British Art, in his book A Brief History of the Smile. Compare, for instance, the varying impressions made by the shy dimples(酒窝)of Leonardos Mona Lisa; the rosy-cheeked, mustachioed Laughing Cavalier of Frans Hals; and the “Smiley Face“ logo perfected(
46、though not invented)in 1963 by American graphic artist Harvey R.Ball.In some non-Western cultures, Trumble notes, even a warm, open smile does not necessarily indicate pleasure or agreement. It can simply be a polite mask to cover emotions considered too rude or shocking to be openly displayed.Subtl
47、e differences in muscle movement can convey enormous differences in emotion, from the tranquility of bronze Buddhas, to the erotic bliss of couples entwined in stone on Hindu temples, to the fierce smirk(假笑)of a guardian demon at the entrance to a Chinese tomb.Trumble expects the impact of Western m
48、edicine and mass media to further increase the pressure on people to grin broadly and laugh openly in public. “Faint smiles are increasingly thought of in scientific and psychological circles as something that falls short of the true smile,“ and therefore suggest insincerity or lack of enthusiasm, h
49、e says.With tattooing, body piercing, and permanent cosmetics already well established as fashion trends, one can imagine tomorrows beauty shops adding plastic surgeons and dentists to their staffs. These corner-store cosmeticians would offer style makeovers to reshape our lips, teeth, and jawlines to mimic the signature smile of ones favorite celebrity.What can you say to that except “Have a nice day?“66 Had it not been for cosm
