21、兆) pounds, “ says University of Massachusetts anthropologist (人类学家) George Armelagos. He says burning off that stored energy would produce enough power for 900, 000 cars to go 12, 000 miles. Losing weight is hard work, but most people want to find a fast and easy way to take off fat. Bookstores sell

26、kites were used for military purposes. Historical records say they were large in size; some were powerful enough to carry men up in the air to observe enemy movements, and others were used to scatter some information over hostile forces. During the Tang Dynasty(618907) , people began to fix on kites

27、 some bamboo(竹子) strips which, when high in the air, would ring in the wind like a zheng(a traditional Chinese musical instrument). Since then, the popular Chinese name for the kite has become fengzheng. The kites made today in some places are fixed with silk strings or rubber bands to give out plea

28、sant ringing in the wind. It was also believed, for instance, during the Qing Dynasty( 16441911) , that flying a kite and then letting it go, apart from the pleasure in itself, might send off ones bad luck and illness. Consequently it would bring him bad luck if one should pick up a kite lost by oth

29、er people. This may be regarded as superstition (迷信) but may not be altogether without reason: think of the good it will do to a person, ill and depressed all the time, if he or she could go out into the fields and fresh air to fly a kite. Chinese kites fall into two major types: those with wings th

30、at can be taken apart and those with wings that are fixed. The former can be taken apart and packed in boxes. Easy to carry about, they make good presents. The second type refers to those with fixed structure, they fly better and higher, given a steady wind, classified by designs and other standards

36、ay come to an end, according to a survey that suggests holiday postcards are more and more given up because of emails and instant messages in mobile phones. More than half of the 1000 holiday-makers interviewed said they had decided to send fewer cards, turning instead to their electronic rivals. A

37、quarter of the respondents (受调查者) regard postcards as old-fashioned and slow to arrive. A further 14% admitted that thinking of something to fill the space was too challenging, compared with a call home. Although officially invented by a Hungarian, Emanuel Herrmann, in 1869, the idea of illustrated

38、cards was taken up with most enthusiasm in Victorian Britain, joining Gothic architecture and landscape gardening as fields for which the country was famous. “If the British postcard did disappear, we would lose forever something of great importance to the nation, “said Chris Mottershead of Thomson

39、Holidays, which did the survey. He was backed by Marie Angelou of Sussex University, who has investigated the importance of sending and receiving postcards. “Postcards are nothing like phone calls, instant messages and direct photo shots via the mobile, “she said. “All these are useful, practical de

40、vices, but postcards offer something else, something additional that is not simply functional, but imaginative and personal. They can create the real atmosphere of your holiday in a way that nothing else can do. They are also for more than a momentwith some people adding them to collections built up

41、 over years and years.（分数：10.00）(1).Who first got the idea of illustrated cards?（分数：2.00）A.Emanuel Herrmann.B.Victorian Britain.C.Chris Mottershead.D.Marie Angelou.(2).The word challenging (in paragraph 2) probably means_.（分数：2.00）A.interestingB.expensiveC.difficultD.dishonest(3).The reason why some

45、 momentC.postcard collecting might be one of the reasons why some people still like the postcardsD.without postcards, people will have less communication with othersDespite a cooling of the economy, high-technology companies are still crying out for skilled workers. The Information Technology Associ

46、ation of America projects that more than 800, 000 technology jobs will go unfilled next year. The lack of qualified workers poses a huge threat to the U. S. economy. The most commonly cited reason for this state of affairs is that the countrys agrarian-age (农村时代) education system fails to prepare st

47、udents in the primary and secondary grades for the 21st century work. Yet an inadequate and outmoded education system is only part of the problem. A less tangible (明确的) but equally powerful cause is an antique (过时的) classification system that divides the workforce into two camps; white-collar knowle

48、dge workers and blue-collar manual laborers. Blue-collar workers emerged in the United States during the Industrial Age as work moved from farms to factories. White-collar office workers became a significant class in the twentieth century, outnumbering(多于) the blue-collar workers by mid-century. Cor
