Humans are often thought to be insensitive smellers compared with animals, but this is largely because

25、, 1 animals, we stand upright. This means that our noses are 2to perceiving those smells which float through the air, missing the majority of smells which stick to 3. In fact, though, we are extremely sensitive to smells, even if we do not generally realize it. Our noses are capable of 4human smells

26、 even when these are diluted to far below one part in one million. Strangely, some people find that they can smell one type of flower but not another, whereas others are sensitive to the smells of both flowers. This may be because some people do not have the genes necessary to generate 5smell recept

27、ors in the nose. These receptors are the cells which sense smells and send 6to the brain. However, it has been found that even people insensitive to a certain smell at first can suddenly become sensitive to it when exposed to it often enough. The explanation for insensitivity to smell seems to be th

28、at the brain finds it 7to keep all smell receptors working all the time but can 8new receptors if necessary. This may also explain why we are not usually sensitive to our own smells-we simply do not need to be. We are not 9of the usual smell of our own house, but we notice new smells when we visit s

29、omeone elses. The brain finds it best to keep smell receptors available for unfamiliar and 10 signals such as the smell of smoke, which might indicate the danger of fire.（分数：20.00）填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_五、READING COMPREHENSIO(总题数：10，分数：32.00)29.PART V READING COM

30、PREHENSION_30.SECTION AIn this section there are several passages followed by ten multiple-choice questions. For each question, there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer._(l)The Westlife story really began way back in December 1996 when t

31、he three original members of Westlife were performing in a local production of the musical Grease. Shane Filan, Kian Egan and Mark Feehilly were all born and bred in Sligo, a small town a few hours west of the Republic of Irelands capital city, Dublin. During breaks the three would get together and

32、sing covers of some of their favorite songs including Boyz II Mens I Make Love To You. The reaction to their singing was so positive that they decided to form a band as soon as they had finished their exams at school. This they duly did and on July 3 1997 they formed I.O.U. (2)The boys organized con

33、certs in the area and even produced their own CDs to sell locally. This local success led to an appearance on TV that was to prove extremely important. Among the viewers who saw the trio perform in a childrens hospital was Boyzones manager, Louis Walsh. Soon after Shanes mother contacted him about I

34、.O.U. and found he had been desperately trying to get in contact with them. (3)Louis Walsh decided to hold auditions to recruit two new members in June of 1998. This is when Nicky Byrne and Bryan McFadden, two Dublin boys and friends entered the picture. A quick name change and Westside was born. Ye

35、s, WESTSIDE. This was to be the quintets name until they discovered another band already using the name and a final change to Westlife was called for. The final link in the chain was Ronan Keating, Boyzones lead singer, who at Louis Walshs request joined him to help and nurtured this raw talent. His

36、 experience proved an invaluable help. (4)The next step was to secure a record deal. The band organized a showcase in Dublin and soon representatives of every major record label were offering the bewildered boys contracts. In October 1998 Westlife signed to RCA, a label that had a proven track recor

37、d with the successful marketing of both Take That and Five. (5)Barely had the ink on the contract dried when they headed out on tour as part of the Smash Hits Show, which led to them winning the Best New Tour Act in December 1998 (this was an award Boyzone themselves had won in 1994 which seemed lik

38、e a pretty good omen). (6)Styled by Kenny Ho, who was responsible for The Spice Girls image, Westlifes first single Swear It Again was released in March 1999. In their native Ireland it went straight to number one and became the biggest selling debut single in the history of the Irish charts. A mont

39、h later Swear It Again repeated the feat in the UK, staying at number one for two weeks and following on from Boyzones dominance of the UK top spot. This success was soon matched all around Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand. (7)They look set to repeat their success now in the USA. A tour throu

40、ghout the States has meant Swear It Again is rapidly climbing the Billboard charts. This is the good news the boys needed as Bryan McFadden recently suffered nervous exhaustion and had to miss some shows while recuperating back in Ireland with his family. Not only that but Ronan Keatings solo plans

41、have forced him to give up his co-managing duties due to lack of time. More good news, though, is they have recently recorded with Marian Carey and are due to begin work on their second album.（分数：8.00）(1).Before the I.O.U. was formed, its members were _.（分数：2.00）A.neighborsB.classmatesC.co-performer
