The western method was (28) developed by Mr. Bates, a British actor in the early part of the century. He trained people t

His method simply included covering the eyes with the palms of the hands and looking at (30) by moving the eyes from side to side instead of (31) them. They then encouraged school children to look frequently at the (32) on the wall of the cl

His family still has no idea why.B The death of David Woods came as a wake-up call to Aust

28、ralia, which is often voted as the ideal place to bring up kids. But the sun, the beaches and the sporting culture are the cheery backdrop to a disturbing trend: young Australian men are now killing themselves at the rate of one a daytriple the rate of 30 years ago. Though most Australians arent par

29、ticularly suicidal, their boys are. In 2000 suicide surpassed car accidents as the leading cause of death among males aged 15 to 24.

Exactly 20

36、 years ago, a time magazine cover story announced that “scientists are on the verge of being able to predict the time, place and even the size of earthquakes.“ The people of quake-ruined Kobe learned last week how wrong that assertion was.None of the methods praised two decades ago have succeeded. E

37、ven now, scientists have yet to discover a uniform warning signal that precedes all quakes, let alone any sign that would tell whether the coming quake is mild or killer. Earthquake formation can be triggered by many factors, says Hiroo Kanamori, a seismologist (地震学家) at the California Institute of

38、Technology. So, finding one all-purpose warning sign is impossible. One reason: Quakes start deep in the earth, so scientist cant study them directly.If a quake precursor (预兆) were found, it would still be impossible to warn humans in advance of all dangerous quakes. Places like Japan and California

39、 are filled with hundreds, if not thousands, of minor faults. It is impossible to place monitoring instruments on all of them. And these inconspicuous sites can be just as deadly as their better-known cousins like the San Andreas. Both the Kobe and the 1994 Northridge quakes occurred on small faults

40、.Prediction would be less important if scientists could easily build structures to withstand every new quake reveals unexpected weaknesses in “quake-resistant“ structure, says Terry Tullis, a geophysical at Brown University. In Kobe, for example, a highway that opened only last year was damaged.In t

41、he Northridge earthquake, on the other hand, well-built structures generally did not collapse. But engineers have since found hidden problems in 120 steel-frame buildings that survived. Such structures are supposed to sway with the earth rather than crumple (崩溃). They may have swayed, but the quake

42、also unexpectedly weakened the joints in their steel skeletons. If the shaking had been longer ore stronger, the buildings might have collapsed.A recent report in Science adds yet more anxiety about life on the fault lines. Researchers can computer simulations to see how quake-resistant buildings wo

43、uld fare in a moderate-size tremor, taking into account that much of a quakes energy travels in a large “pulse of focused shaking. The results: Both steel-frame buildings and buildings that sit on insulating rubber pads suffered severe damage.“More research will help experts design stronger structur

44、es and possibly find quake pressures. But it is still a certainty that the next earthquake will prove once again that every fault cannot be monitored and every highway cannot be completely quake-proofed.（分数：71.00）(1).Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Scientists have not discovered one

45、 single warning sign for all quakes.B. Scientists have not yet discovered any sign that would tell the size of quakes.C. Scientists claimed that they had found some methods of predicting earthquakes, but they didnt work.D. The methods scientists boasted of 20 years ago of predicting quakes didnt pro

46、duce desired results.（分数：14.20）A.B.C.D.(2).According to the passage, quakes _.A. can in no way be studied fullyB. can be warned of beforehandC. can trigger minor faultsD. on small faults cannot possibly be as deadly as those best known quakes（分数：14.20）A.B.C.D.(3).It is implied in the passage that _.

47、A. well-erected structures do not collapseB. the existent quake-resistant buildings need to be redesignedC. steel-frame buildings survive any earthquakesD. seismic engineering has improved well enough for structures to resist quakes（分数：14.20）A.B.C.D.(4).The best title for this passage could be _.A. “Nature Is Beyond Humans Control.“B. “No Method or Stronger Structures Are Founds to Predict and Withstand Quakes.“C. “Cant We Predict Earthquakes?“D. “Why Earthquake Prediction Is Hard to Do?/（分数：14.20）A.B.C.D.(5).It is impossible to warn of all
