7、the earth move, and sometimes this may cause the sides of the fault to move up and down or lengthways (纵向地 ) against each other. When one piece of rock starts to rub on another with great force, a lot of energy is used. This energy is changed into vibrations (振动 ) and it is these vibrations that we

This record time had been set in

17、1993 by British sprinter (短跑运动员 ) Colin Jackson and 9 years went by before another athlete was able to run as fast. 2 Record-breaking in all track events is slowing down and we appear to be moving much closer to the limits of human performance. Nevertheless, every four years, records which were prev

18、iously thought to be unbeatable are broken. So whats behind this never-ending improvement in performance? And how long can we keep breaking records? Is there a limit to human performance or will athletes continue to gain seconds? 3 Most experts agree that it isnt the athletes bodies which have chang

19、ed but the huge advances in sport science which have enabled them to improve their performances. The individual athlete obviously has to have the necessary skill and determination to succeed, but the help of science and technology can be significant. Research has brought a better understanding of th

20、e athletes body and mind but the advances in sports equipment technology have also had an important impact on human performance. 4 Scientists have shown that an athletes bodys needs vary according to the type of sport. This research has helped top sports people to adapt their training programme and

21、diet better to their particular needs. Running the marathon and cycling, for example, are endurance (耐力 ) sports and require a different parathion (硝苯硫磷脂 ) to that of a 100-metre sprinter. In some sports, changes in techniques have significantly improved performance. 5 But in any sport, a players su

22、ccess or failure results from a combination of both physical and mental abilities. Most coaches use psychological techniques to help their athletes cope with stress and concentrate on their performance. For example, the English football team listens to music in the changing rooms before a game to he

23、lp the players relax and not feel so nervous. Before a difficult match, tennis players are encouraged to use visualization (相象 ) techniques to build confidence and this is almost as good as practice. 6 But as science, begins to dominate sport, are we in danger of losing sight of the heart of the com

24、petition, the sporting challenge? Whats more, are all these advantages fair? 23 A. Science may be too important today. B. Sports equipment has been improved a lot. C. Athletes are still breaking records. D. Sport science helps improve athletes performances. E. Mental training is as important as phys

27、g is one of the best environmental success stories of the late 20th century. But we could do more. People must not see recycling .as fashionable, but essential. The Japanese are very good at recycling because they live in a crowded country. They do not have much space. They do not want to share thei

28、r limited space with rubbish. But even so, Tokyo area alone is estimated to have three million tons of leftover rubbish at present. In 1996, the United States recycled and composted (制成肥料 )57 million tons of waste (27% of the nations solid waste). This is 57 million tons of waste which did not go in

29、to landfills and incinerators (焚化炉 ). In doing this, 7,000 rubbish collection programmes and recycling centres helped the authorities. In Rockford, a city in Illinois, US, its officials choose one house each week and check its garbage (废物 ). If the garbage does not contain any newspapers or aluminiu

30、m (铝 ) cans, then the resident of the house gets a prize of at least $1,000. In Japan, certain cities give children weekly supplies of tissue paper and toilet paper in exchange for a weekly collection of newspapers. In one year Britain recycles: - 1 out of every 3 newspapers. - 1 out of every 4 glas

31、s bottles and jars (罐子 ). - 1 out of every 4 items of clothing. - 1 out of every 3 aluminium drink cans. In 1999, Hong Kong transported 1.3 million tons of waste to mainland China for recycling. Around 535,000 tons of waste were recycled in Hong Kong itself. Over half the things we throw away could

32、be recycled. That means we could recycle 10 times as much as we do now. However, recycling needs a lot of organization and special equipment. Also, there is not much use for some recycled material. 31 Which of the following is NOT true of the Japanese? （ A） They live in a crowded country. （ B） They

33、have recycled all their waste. （ C） They are very good at recycling. （ D） They have to share their limited space with rubbish 32 How much waste did the US recycle in 1996? （ A） 1.3 million tons. （ B） 27 million tons. （ C） 57 million tons. （ D） 53 million tons. 33 Where can people get a big prize for

34、 contributing to recycling? （ A） Rockford. （ B） Tokyo. （ C） Hong Kong. （ D） London. 34 In Japan, the newspapers collected by children （ A） are given to poor people. （ B） are used as reading materials. （ C） are used as prizes. （ D） are recycled. 35 Which of the following is NOT true of Britain? （ A）

36、apable of carrying a person unveiled on Friday in Tokyo, Japan. Its creators at Waseda University in Tokyo and the Japanese robotics company Tmsuk hope their two-legged creation will one day enable wheel-chair users to climb up and down the stairs and assist the movement of heavy goods over uneven g

37、round. The battery-powered robot, code-named WL-16, is essentially an aluminium chair mounted on two sets of telescopic poles. The poles are bolted to flat plates which act as feet. WL-16 uses 12 actuators (传动装置 ) to move forwards, backwards and sideways while carrying an adult weighing up to 60 kil

38、ograms (130 pounds). The robot can adjust its body and walk smoothly even if the person it is carrying shifts in the chair. At present it can only step up or down a few millimeters, but the, team plans to make it capable of dealing with a normal flight of stairs. I believe this bipedal (两足的 ) robot,

39、 which I prefer to call a two-legged walking chair rather than a wheel-chair, will eventually enable people to go up and down the stairs,“ said Atsuo Takanishi, from Waseda University. “We have had strong robots for some time but usually they have been manipulators, they have not been geared to carr

40、ying people around,“ says Ron Arkin, at the Georgia Institute of Technology and robotics consultant for Sony. “But I dont know how safe and how user-friendly WL-16 is.“ Tmsuk chief executive Yoichi Takamoto argues that bipedal or multi-legged robots will be more useful than so-called “caterpillar (毛

41、毛虫 ) models“ for moving over uneven ground. WL-16s normal walking step measures 30 centimetres, but it can stretch its legs to 136 cm apart. The prototype (原型 ) is currently radio-controlled, but the research team plans to equip it with a stick-like controller for the user in future. Takanishi said

42、it will take “at least two years“ to develop the WL-16 prototype into a working model. Smaller, ground-hugging (紧贴地面行走的 ) robots have been developed to pass across tricky ground. One maggot-like (像蛆一样的 ) device uses a magnetic fluid to pulse its way along, while another snake-like robot uses smart s

43、oftware to devise new movement strategies if the landscape affects any one part. One ball-shaped robot even uses a leap-and-bounce approach to travel over rough territory. But none of these are big or strong enough to carry a person too. 36 The robot presented to the public on Friday in Tokyo, Japan

44、 （ A） surprised visitors from Waseda University. （ B） can move up to 60 kilometres per hour. （ C） can transport heavy goods over uneven ground （ D） has two legs and is able to carry a person. 37 The researchers plan to make WL-16 capable of （ A） moving up and down the stairs easily. （ B） turning its

45、 head easily. （ C） using a telescope to find the way. （ D） carrying a person of over 60 kilograms. 38 What does Ron Arkin think of WL-16? （ A） He doesnt think it is useful. （ B） He thinks it is only a manipulator. （ C） He thinks it is user-friendly. （ D） He is unsure of its safety. 39 Which of the f

46、ollowing is true of WL-16? （ A） It can only move forwards and backwards. （ B） It is a caterpillar model. （ C） It can walk with a step of up to 136 cm. （ D） It is equipped with a stick-like controller. 40 Which type of robot is NOI mentioned in the last paragraph? （ A） Maggot-like robots. （ B） Snake-

47、like robots. （ C） Ball-shaped robots. （ D） Chair-shaped robots. 41 Is the Tie a Necessity? Ties, or neckties, have been a symbol of politeness and elegance in Britain for centuries. But the casual Prime Minister Tony Blair has problems with them. Reports suggest that even the civil servants may stop

48、 wearing ties. So, are the famously formal British really going to abandon the neckties? Maybe. Last week, the UKs Cabinet Secretary Andrew Turnbull openly welcomed a tieless era. Fie hinted that civil servants would soon be free of the costliest 12 inches of fabric that most men ever buy in their l

49、ives. In fact, Blair showed this attitude when he had his first guests to a cocktail party. Many of them were celebrities (知名人士 ) without ties, which would have been unimaginable even in the recent past. For some more conservative British, the tie is a must for proper appearance. Earlier, Labor leader Jim Callaghan said he would have died rather than have his children seen in public without a tie. For people like Callaghan, the tie was a sign o
