7、ver picture of a single particle of rusty Martian dust with one of its microscopes. The dust particles of dust were shown at a higher magnification than anything outside of Earth that has been imaged before. The rounded particle measured only about one micrometer, or one millionth of a meter, across

8、. “Taking this image required the highest resolution microscope operated off Earth and a specially designed device to hold the Martian dust,“ said Tom Pike, a Phoenix science team member from Imperial College London. “We always knew it was going to be technically very challenging to image particles

9、this small.“ The device that imaged the dust speck is called an atomic force microscope, which maps the shape of particles in three dimensions by scanning them with a sharp tip at the end of a spring. The atomic force microscope can detail the shapes of particles as small as about 100 nanometers. An

10、d this won“t be the last dust particle that Phoenix will image. “After this first success, we“re now working on building up a portrait gallery of the dust on Mars,“ Pike said. Dust exists everywhere on Mars, coating the surface and giving it its rusty red color. Dust particles also color the Martian

Voluntary learning in organized courses by mature men and women is called adult education. Such education is offered to make people able to enlarge and interpret th

17、eir experience as adults. Adults may want to study something which they missed in earlier schooling, get new skills or job training, find out about new technological developments, seek better selfunderstanding, or develop new talents and skills. 2. This kind of education may be in the form of self-s

18、tudy with proper guidance through the use of libraries, correspondence courses, or broadcasting. It may also be acquired collectively in schools and colleges, study groups, workshops, clubs, and professional associations. 3. Modern adult education for large numbers of people started in the 18th and

19、19th centuries with the rise of the Industrial Revolution. Great economic and social changes were taking place, people were moving from rural areas to cities, new types of work were being created in an expanding factory system. These and other factors produced a need for further education and re-edu

20、cation of adults. 4. The earliest programs of organized adult education arose in Great Britain in the 1790s, with the founding of an adult school in Nottingham and a mechanics institute in Glasgow. The earliest adult education institution in the United States was founded by Benjamin Franklin and som

21、e friends in Philadelphia in 1727. 5. People recognize that continued learning is necessary for most forms of employment today. For example, parts of the adult population in many countries find it necessary to take part in retraining programs at work or even to learn completely new jobs. Adult educa

25、Lets Brain File MemoriesTo sleep. Perchance to file? Findings published online this week by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences further support the theory that the brain organizes and stows memories formed during the day while the rest of the body is catching zzz“s. Gyorgy Buzsaki of

26、 Rutgers University and his colleagues analyzed the brain waves of sleeping rats and mice. Specifically, they examined the electrical activity emanating from the somatosensory neocortex (an area that processes sensory information) and the hippocampus, which is a center for learning and memory. The s

27、cientists found that oscillations in brain waves from the two regions appear to be intertwined. So-called sleep spindles (bursts of activity from the neocortex) were followed tens of milliseconds later by beats in the hippocampus known as ripples. The team posits that this interplay between the two

28、brain regions is a key step in memory consolidation. A second study, also published on line this week by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, links age-associated memory decline to high glucose levels. Previous research had shown that individuals with diabetes suffer from increased m

29、emory problems. In the new work; Antonio Convit of New York University School of Medicine and his collaborators studied 30 people whose average age was 69 to investigate whether sugar levels, which tend to increase with age, affect memory in healthy people as well. The scientists administered recall

30、 tests, brain scans and glucose tolerance tests, which measure how quickly sugar is absorbed from the blood by the body“s tissues. Subjects with the poorest memory recollection, the team discovered, also displayed the poorest glucose tolerance. In addition, their brain scans showed more hippocampus

31、shrinkage than those of subjects better able to absorb blood sugar. “Our study suggests that this impairment may contribute to the memory deficits that occur as people age.“ Convit says. “And it raises the intriguing possibility that improving glucose tolerance could reverse some age-associated prob

32、lems in cognition.“ Exercise and weight control can help keep glucose levels in check, so there may be one more reason to go to the gym.（分数：15.00）(1).Which of the following statements is nearest in meaning to the sentence “To sleep. Perchance to file?“（分数：3.00）A.Does brain arrange memories in useful

33、 order during sleep?B.Does brain have memories when one is sleeping?C.Does brain remember files after one falls asleep?D.Does brain work on files in sleep?(2).What is the result of the experiment with rats and mice carried out at Rutgers University?（分数：3.00）A.The electrical activity is emanating fro

34、m the somatosensory neocortex.B.Oscillations in brain waves are from hippocampus.C.Somatosensory neocortex and hippocampus work together in memory consolidation.D.Somatosensory neocortex plays it primary role in memory consolidation.(3).What is the relation of memory to glucose tolerance, as is indi

35、cated by a research mentioned in paragraph 3?（分数：3.00）A.People with poor memory have high glucose tolerance.B.People with good memory have low glucose tolerance.C.Memory level has nothing to do with glucose tolerance.D.The poorer the memory, the poorer glucose tolerance.(4).In what way is memory rel

36、ated to hippocampus shrinkage?（分数：3.00）A.There is no relation between memory and hippocampus shrinkage.B.The more hippocampus shrinks, the poorer one“s memory.C.The more hippocampus shrinks, the better one“s memory.D.The less hippocampus shrinks, the poorer one“s memory.(5).According to the last par

37、agraph, what is the ultimate reason for going to the gym?（分数：3.00）A.To prevent hippocampus shrinkage.B.To control weight.C.To exercise.D.To control glucose levels.六、第二篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)第二篇 Driven to DistractionJoe Coyne slides into the driver“s seat, starts up the car and heads to town. The empty str

38、etch of interstate gives way to urban congestion, and Coyne hits the brakes as a pedestrian suddenly crosses the street in front of him. But even if he hadn“t stopped in time, the woman would have been safe. She isn“t real. Neither is the town. And Coyne isn“t really driving. Coyne is demonstrating

39、a computerized driving simulator that is helping researchers at Old Dominion University (ODU) examine how in vehicle guidance systems affect the person behind the wheel. The researchers want to know if such systems, which give audible or written directions, are too distractingor whether any distract

40、ions are offset by the benefits drivers get from having help finding their way in unfamiliar locations. “We are looking at the performance and mental workload of drivers,“ said Cary Baldwin, the assistant psychology professor leading the research, which involves measuring drivers“ reaction time and

41、brain activity as they respond to auditory and visual cues. The researchers just completed a study of the mental workload involved in driving through different kinds of environments and heavy, light traffic. Preliminary results show that as people “get into more challenging driving situations, they

42、don“t have any extra mental energy to respond to something else in the environment.“ Baldwin said. But the tradeoffs could be worth it, she said. The next step is to test different ways of giving drivers navigational information and how those methods change the drivers“ mental workload. “Is it best

43、if they see a picture, that shows their position, a map kind of display?“ Baldwin said. “Is it best if they hear it?“ Navigational systems now on the market give point by point directions that follow a prescribed route. “They“re very unforgiving“ Baldwin said. “If you miss a turn, they can almost se

44、em to get angry.“ That style of directions also can be frustrating for people who prefer more general instructions. But such broad directions can confuse drivers who prefer route directions. Baldwin said. Perhaps manufacturers should allow drivers to choose the style of directions they want, or modi

45、fy systems to present some information in a way that makes sense for people who prefer the survey style, she said. Interestingly, other research has shown that about 60 percent of men prefer the survey style, while 60 percent women prefer the route style, Baldwin said. This explains the classic litt

46、le thing of why men don“t like to stop and ask for directions and women do, Baldwin added.（分数：15.00）(1).Which statement is true of the description in the first two paragraphs?（分数：3.00）A.If Coyne had stopped the car in time, he wouldn“t have hit the woman.B.The woman would have been knocked over, if

47、Coyne had followed the traffic regulations.C.Coyne is not really driving so it is impossible for him to have hit the woman.D.If the woman had not crossed the street suddenly, Coyne would not have hit her.(2).What do researchers want to find out, according to the third and fourth paragraphs?（分数：3.00）

48、A.Whether or not audible or written directions are distracting.B.How long it will take the driver to respond to auditory and visual stimuli.C.How the driver perform under certain mental workload.D.All of the above.(3).What are the preliminary results given in the fifth paragraph?（分数：3.00）A.Drivers a

49、re afraid of getting into challenging driving situations.B.In challenging driving situations, drivers still have extra energy to handle other things.C.In challenging driving situations, drivers do not have any additional mental energy to deal with something else.D.Drivers“ mental load remains unchanged under different situations.(4).The sixth paragraph mainly state that the researchers（分数：3.00）A.are designing a visual navigational information system.B.are designing an audio navigational information system.C.are designing an audio visual navigational information system.D.want to determine the
