Car makers research and development laboratories have already proved that mixing more noise with the help

27、of loudspeakers can reduce the unwanted noise. Physicists have known about the technique for a long time. Sound is made up of pressure waves in the air. If two sound waves of the same frequency (频率 ) mix so that the highest point of one wave happens at the same time as the lowest point of the other

28、wave, the result is no sound. Therefore, by producing a perfect copy of the noise and delaying it by half a wave cycle (周期 ), we can kill the unwanted noise. Using this technique many carmakers are racing to develop noise-killing systems (系统 ) both inside and outside the cars. Another good thing abo

29、ut the use of noise-killing systems is that it saves the need for a silencer; this not only reduces the weight of a car, but also makes the motor burn less fuel and work better. Some engineers believe that the noise-killing system will be used in most cars within a few years. But the carmakers haven

30、t decided if they will carry it into production because it would add several hundred dollars to the cost of their cars. 58 Which of the following gives a general idea of how the noise-killing system works? （ A） By producing pressure waves going in the opposite direction. （ B） By mixing high frequenc

31、y sound waves with low frequency sound waves. （ C） By mixing new sound waves with the noise and sending them out together. （ D） By making copies of the unwanted sound waves and letting them out a little later. 59 Besides its main use the noise-killing system can_. （ A） make a car lighter （ B） make a

32、 car quieter （ C） reduce the cost of a silencer （ D） improve the performance of a silencer 60 The noise-killing system is net yet popular mainly because_. （ A） it is still being tried out （ B） drivers still have their doubts （ C） it increases the cost of car production （ D） carmakers are not sure if

33、 it is necessary 61 Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? Even a skilled writer probably could net describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child or even an animal, such as a pigeon can le

34、arn to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted. We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someones personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others. Like the human face, human personal

35、ity is very complex. But describing someones personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a “nice face“ looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a “nice person“, you might begin to think

36、about someone who was kind, considerate, friendly, warm, and so forth. There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Gordon All port, an American psychologist, found nearly 18 000 English words characterizing differences in peoples behavior. And many of us use this informatio

37、n as a basis for describing, or typing his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types-people are described with such terms. People have always tried to “type“ each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villains (坏人 ) or the heros role.

38、In fact, the words “person“ and “personality“ come from the Latin persona, meaning “mask“. Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easily tell the “good guys“ from the “bad guys“ because the two types differ in appearances as well as in actions. 61 According to this pas

39、sage, some animals have the girl of_. （ A） telling people apart by how they behave （ B） typing each other （ C） telling good people from bad people （ D） recognizing human faces 62 Who most probably knows best how to describe peoples personality? （ A） The ancient Greek audience. （ B） The movie actors.

40、 （ C） Psychologists. （ D） The modem TV audience. 63 Which of the following is the major point of the passage? （ A） Why it is necessary to identify peoples personality. （ B） Why it is possible to describe people. （ C） How to get to know people. （ D） How best to recognize people. 64 To protect you and

41、 your fellow passengers, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is required by law to inspect all checked baggage. As part of this process, some bags are opened and inspected. Your bag was among those selected for inspection. During the inspection, your bag and its contents may have been s

42、earched for items forbidden by law such as fireworks, fuels, gun powder, etc. At the completion of the inspection, the contents were returned to your bag, which was resealed (重新封口 ) with a“ special“ lock. If the TSA screener was unable to open your bag for inspection because it was locked, the scree

43、ner may have been forced to break the locks on your bag. TSA sincerely regrets having to do this, and has taken care to reseal your bag upon completion of inspection.

48、t instead are rather well into it.“ Present predictions are that by 1990, about thirty million jobs in the United States, or about thirty percent of the job market, will be computer-related. In 1980, only twenty-one percent of all American high schools owned one or two computers for student use. In

49、the fall of 1985, a new study showed that half of United States secondary schools have fifteen or more computers for student use. And now educational experts, administrators, and even the general public are demanding that all students become“ computer literate“. By the year 2000 knowledge of computers will be necessary in over eighty percent of all occupations. Soon those people not educated in computer use will be compared to those
