7、n in the history of human knowledge. We dont know what our Stone Age ancestors (祖先) knew about plants, but from what we can observe of preindustrial societies that still exist, a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient. They have always been enormously (巨大地) import

8、ant to the welfare of people, not only for food, but also for clothing, weapons, tools, dyes, Medicines, shelter, and many other purposes. Tribes living today in the jungle of the Amazon (亚马逊河) recognize hundreds of plants and know many properties of each. To them botany has no name and is probably

9、not even recognized as a special branch of “knowledge“ at all.Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become the farther away we move from direct contact with plants. And the less distinct our knowledge of botany grows. Yet everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge,

10、and few people will fail to recognize a rose, an apple, or an orchid (淡紫色的). When our Neolithic (新石器时代) ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10,000 years ago, discovered that certain grasses could be harvested and their seeds planted for richer yields the next season, the first great step in a

11、 new association of plants and humans was taken. Grains were discovered and from them flowed the marvel of agriculture: cultivated crops. From then on, humans would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather than getting a little here and a little there fro

12、m many varieties that grew wild and the accumulated knowledge of tens of thousands of years of experience and intimacy with plants in the wild would begin to fade away.（分数：7.00）(1).It is logical that a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient.（分数：1.00）A.A.

Long before he started a car company, he was a worker, known for picking up pieces of metal and wire and turning them into machines. He started putting cars together in 1891, a

17、lthough it was by no means the first popular automobile, the Model T showed the world just how creative Ford was at combining technology and market.2. The companys assembly line alone threw Americas Industrial Revolution into overdrive (高速运转). Instead of having workers put together the entire car, F

18、ords friends, who were great toolmakers from Scotland, organized teams that added parts to each Model T as it moved down a line. By the time Fords Highland Park plant was humming (嗡嗡作响) along in 1914, the worlds first automatic conveyor belt could turn out a car every 93 minutes.3. The same year Hen

19、ry Ford shocked the world with the $ 5 - a day minimum wage scheme. The greatest contribution he had ever made. The average wage in the auto industry then was $ 2.34 for a 9-hour shift. Ford not only doubled that he also took an hour off the workday. In those years it was unthinkable that a man coul

20、d be paid that much for doing something that didnt involve an awful lot of training or education. The Wall Street Journal called the plan “an economic crime“. And critics everywhere laughed at Ford.4. But as the wage increased later to daily $10, it proved a critical component of Fords dream to make

21、 the automobile accessible (可及的) to all.

They dream of placing enzymes (酶) in the automobile to monitor exhaust and send data on pollu

25、tion to a microprocessor (微处理器) that will then adjust the engine. They speak of what the New York Times calls metal-hungry microbes that might be used to mine valuable trace metals from ocean water. They have already demanded and won the right to patent new life forms.Nervous critics, including many

26、 scientists, worry that there is corporate, national, international, and inter-scientific rivalry in the entire biotechnological (生物科技的) field. They create images not of oil spills, but of microbe spills that could spread disease and destroy entire populations. The creation and accidental release of

27、 extremely poisonous microbes, however, is only one cause for alarm. Completely rational and respectable scientists are talking about possibilities that stagger (使震惊) the imagination.Should we breed people with cowlike stomachs so they can digest grass and hay, thereby relieving the food problem by

28、modifying us to eat lower down on the food chain? Should we biologically alter workers to fit the job requirement, for example, creating pilots with faster reaction times or assembly-line workers designed to do our monotonous work for us? Should we attempt to eliminate inferior people and breed a su

29、per-race? (Hitler tried this, but without the genetic weaponry that may soon issue from our laboratories.) Should we produce soldiers to do our fighting? Should we use genetic (遗传的) forecasting to pre-eliminate (除去) unfit (不合适的) babies? Should we grow reserve organs for ourselves, each of us having,

30、 as it were, a “savings bank “ full of spare kidney, livers, or hands?Wild as thses notions may sound, every one has its advocates (and opposers) in the scientific community as well as its striking commercial application. As two critics of genetic engineering, Jeremy Rifkin and Ted Howard, state in

31、their book Who Should Play God? “Broad scale genetic engineering will probably be introduced to America much the same way sa assembly lines, automobiles, vaccines, computers and all the other technologies. As each new genetic advance boomes commercially practical, a new consumer need will be exploit

32、de and a market for the new technology will be created. “（分数：15.00）(1).According to the passage, the new biology could potentially solve the pollution problem of automobiles by（分数：3.00）A.using metal-hungry microbes.B.making use of enzymes.C.adjusting the engines.D.patenting new lifeforms.(2).Accordi

37、 potential application of each new genetic advance should be controlled.B第二篇/BMale and Female Pilots Cause Accidents DifferentlyMale pilots flying general aviation (private) aircraft in the United States are more likely to crash due to inattention or flawed decision making. While female pilots are m

38、ore likely to crash from mishandling (错误地处理) the aircraft (航行器). These are the results of a study by researchers at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health.The study identifies the differences between male and female pilots in terms of circumstances of the crash and the type o

39、f pilots error involved. “Crashes of general aviation aircraft account for 85 percent of all aviation deaths“ in the United States. The crash rate for male pilots as for motor vehicle drivers, exceeds that of crashes of female pilots, “ explains Susan P. Baker, MPH, professor of health policy and ma

40、nagement at the Bloomberg School of Public Health. “Because pilot youth and inexperience are established contributors to aviation crashes, we focused on only mature pilots, to determine the gender differences in the reasons for the crash.The researchers extracted data for this study from a large res

41、earch project on pilot aging and flight safety. The data were gathered from general aviation (航行) crashes of airplanes and helicopters between 1983 and 1997, involving 144 female pilots and 267 male pilots aged 40-63. Female pilots were matched with male pilots in a 1:2 ratio, by age, classes of med

42、ical and pilot certificates, state or area of crash, and year of crash. Then the circumstances of the crashes and the pilot error involved were categorized and coded without knowledge of pilot gender.The researchers found that loss of control on landing or takeoff was the most common circumstance fo

43、r both sexes, leading to 59 percent of female pilots crashes and 36 percent of males. Experiencing mechanical failure, running out of fuel (燃料), and landing the plane with the landing gear up were among the factors more likely with males, while stalling was more likely with females.The majority of t

44、he crashes - 95 percent for females and 88 percent for males - involved at least one type of pilot error. Mishandling aircraft kinetics was the most common error for both sexes, but was more common among females (accounting for 81 percent of the crashes) than males (accounting for 48 percent). Males

45、, however, appeared more likely to be guilty of poor decision-making, risk-taking, and inattentiveness, examples of which include misjudging weather and visibility or flying an aircraft with a known defect (过失). Females, though more likely to mishandle or lose control of the aircraft, were generally

46、 more careful than their male counterparts.（分数：15.00）(1).What is the research at Johns Hopkins University about?（分数：3.00）A.Causes of aircraft crash.B.Gender difference in relation to types of aircraft crashes.C.Causes of mishandling aircraft.D.Gender discrimination in general aviation in the United
