At the time of the Norman invasion in 1066 it had 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 v

9、arious religions. The first cathedral was built in 1095 and has recently celebrated its 900th anniversary, while Norwich itself had a year of celebration in 1994 to mark the 800th anniversary of the city receiving a Royal Charter. This allowed it to be called a city and to govern itself independentl

10、y.Today, in comparison with places like London or Manchester, Norwich is quite small, with a population of around 150,000, but in the 16th century Norwich was the second largest city of England. It continued to grow for the next 300 years and got richer and richer, becoming famous for having as many

11、 churches as there are weeks in the year and as many pubs as their are days in the year.Nowadays, there are far fewer churches and pubs, but in 1964 the University of East Anglia. was built in Norwich. With its fast-frowing student population and its success as a modern commercial centre (Norwich is

12、 the biggest centre for insurance services outside London), the city now has a side choice of entertainment: theatres, cinemas, nightclubs, busy cafes, excellent restaurants, and a number of arts and leisure centres. There is also a football team, whose colours are green and yellow. The team is know

13、n as “The Canaries (金丝雀)“,though nobody can be sure why.Now the citys attractions include another important development, a modern shopping centre called “The Castle Mall“. The people of Norwich lived with a very large hold in the middle of their city for over two years, as builders dug up the main c

14、ar park. Lorries moved nearly a million tons of earth so that the roof of the mall could become a city centre park, with attractive water pools and hundreds of trees, but the local people are really pleased that the old open market remains, right in the heart of the city and next to the new developm

The atmosphere again acts

21、 as our protective blanket on earth light, gets through, and this is essential for plants to make the food that we eat. Heat, too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off. As soon

22、 as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation, but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecrafts, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage.Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation is called “rem“ (“雷姆”). Scientists hav

23、e reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1 rem without being damaged, the figure of 60 reins has been agreed on. The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage-a person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her sex organs may

24、be damaged ,and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed(畸形的)children or even grandchildren. Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation and, during the outward and return journeys, the Apollo crew accumulated a larger amount of reins. So far, no dangerous

25、 amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have been quite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in a space laboratory. Drugs might help to decrease the damage clone by ra

39、esearch has helped brain scientists understands these problems better. Scientists now know there are many different kinds of learning disabilities and that they are caused by many different things. There is no longer any question that all learning disabilities result from differences in the way the

40、brain is organized. You can t look at a child and tell if he or she has a learning disability. There is no outward sign of the disorder. So some researchers began looking at the brain itself to learn what might be wrong.In one study, researchers examined the brain of a learning disabled person who h

41、ad died in an accident. They found two unusual things. One involved cells in the left side of the brain, which control language. These cells normally are white. In the learning disabled person, however, these ceils were gray. The researchers also found that many of the nerve ceils were not in a line

42、 the way they should have been. The nerve cells were mixed together.The study was carried out under the guidance of Norman Geschwind, an early expert on learning disabilities. Doctor Geschwind proposed that learning disabilities mainly resultes from problems in the left side of the brain. He believe

43、d this side of the brain failed to develop normally. Probably, he said, nerve cells there didnt connect as they should. So the brain was like an electrical device in which the wires were crossed.Other researchers didnt examine brain tissue. Instead, they measured the brains electrical activity and m

44、ade a map of the electrical signals.Frank Dully experimented with this technique at Childrens Hospital Medical Center in Boston. Dr. Duffy found large differences in the brain activity of normal children and those with reading problems. The differences appeared throughout the brain. Dr. Dully said h

47、zation of brain cells.D. Learning disabilities may result from problems in the left side of the brain.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(3).All of the following statements are true EXCEPT that _.A. many factors account for learning disorderB. a learning disabled person shows no outward signsC. reading disabilities a

48、re a common problem that affects 10 % of the populationD. the brain activity of learning disabled children is different from that of normal children（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Dr. Dully believed that _.A. he found the exact cause of learning disabilitiesB. the problem of learning disabilities was not limit

49、ed to the left side of the brainC. problem of learning disabilities resulted from the left side of the brainD. the problem of learning disabilities didn t lie in the left side of the brain（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(5).According to the passage we can conclude that further researches should be made_A. to investigate possible influences on brain development and organizat
