The typical Western diet, high in fat, salt and meat, accounted for about 30% of hea

22、rt attack risk in any population. A “prudent“ diet high in fruit and vegetables lowered heart risk by a third. An Oriental diet, high in tofu, soy and other sauces, made no difference to heart attack risk. People who ate a Western diet had a 35% greater risk of having a heart attack than those who a

23、te little or no fried. The typical Western diet has been widely linked to heart disease. High salt in the diet can raise blood pressure and the wrong type of fat can clog (阻塞 ) blood vessels. Ellen Mason, a cardiac nurse for the British Heart Foundation, said: “This study shows that it doesnt matter

24、 whether you live in B。 lton or B。 mbay, or whether you like to eat British, African Caribbean or Asian foods.

But when Moko arrived at Mahia beach on the east coast of New Zealands North Island, their mood chan

28、ged and they followed him to safety. The ability of some animals to communicate is well known. Whats less well documented, however, is the communication between species. Justin Gregg, vice president of the Dolphins Communication Project, said it is possible that a dolphin and a whale could communica

29、te in some way. “But it wouldnt be instructions like Hey, buddy, theopen oceanis over here. Follow me,“ he says. Dolphins use three forms of signaling to other dolphinswhistles, clicking and postures. A whale might have signals in common with a dolphin, just as different species of dolphins are know

30、n to share signals which might theoretically allow a form of basic inter-species communication. But just as its possible that Moko the dolphin and the stranded whales shared a signal, it is also possible that the whales just saw a vaguely similar creature and followed it. There are many reasons why

31、different species communicate, says Vincent Janik, lecturer at the Sea Mammal Research Unit at St Andrews University. “The animals exploit the systems of others for their own benefits.Sometimes the benefits are the same for each, therefore they share information. Sometimes they are trying to take ad

32、vantage of the other. Getting food may not be to the advantage of the one giving up the food. “ 24 What happened after Moko the dolphin appeared at Mahia beach? （ A） The beached whales still felt distressful. （ B） Moko led the whales back to the sea. （ C） The whales were still stuck on the beach. （

33、D） Moko and the whales swam together ashore. 25 Scientists engaged in animal studies have collected_. （ A） enough data on how animals speak human languages （ B） none of the data on animals ability to communicate （ C） less data on how animals communicate between species （ D） some data on animals tend

34、ency to talk to humans 26 Dolphins communicate with one another, using all the following types of signaling EXCEPT （ A） gestures （ B） whistles （ C） clicking （ D） postures 27 The whales stranded on the beach followed the dolphin to safety probably because_. （ A） they understood the dolphins instructi

35、on “Follow me“ （ B） they had signals in common with one another （ C） they recognized some other animals not far away （ D） they shared those inter-species signals with the dolphin 28 Why do animals of different species communicate with one another? （ A） Because they like to set up their own communica

36、tion systems. （ B） Because they want to take advantage of the other species. （ C） Because they tend to keep more food to themselves. （ D） Because they benefit from using the information from other species. 28 Competition breeds excellence.Ask anyone who pays attention to the car industry and they wi

37、ll tell you that the family-sedan segment is just brutal, with manufacturers fighting tooth and nailover every sale. In fact, that market has become more competitive in recent years. It used to just be the Camry and the Accord fighting for supremacy, but now you have new (Hyundai) and old (Ford) com

38、petitors, among others, joining the fight, with interesting, well-made, compelling products.Its a great time to be shopping for a new family sedan. Compare that with the state of the tablet market today. Hewlett-Packard is in retreat.Research in Motion is in a holding pattern. Motorola has been sold

39、 and its tablet is now an afterthought. Samsung fights the good fight, hut it trails Apples market share by 50 percentage points. Apple is not just ahead of the pack, it almost is the pack. Now, some would say that this is also a simple result of economic laws at work: Apple makes a superior product

40、, therefore it gets most of the sales. But what would be really great is that, Apple, Google, Microsoft, and H. P. , locked in an epic battle for tablet supremacy, are each releasing new and better products at a furious pace, and each dropping prices substantially at a steady clip. Apple is driving

41、innovation and creativity with each upgrade of the iPad it releases. But this isnt about whether you prefer Apple or Android for your tablet. This isnt about picking sides. As a consumer, I want there to be robust competition across the board. I want Coke and Pepsi, Target and Wal-Mart, Engadget and

42、 Gizmodo. If youre a fan of Apple, you want there to be a worthy rival push it, to keep its feet to the fire. If you dont like Apple, you want someone else in the game so that Apple doesnt suck all the air out of the room. And you want Apple to do the same pushing and foot scorching to its competito

43、r that another company would do to it. 29 The phrase “fighting tooth and nail“ (Para.1) means that car makers are_. （ A） competing fiercely with one another （ B） beating one another with their tooth and nail （ C） extremely careful about the family-sedan segment （ D） paying more attention to their to

44、oth and nail 30 Why is it a great time to he shopping for a new family sedan? （ A） Because competition is more interesting and compelling. （ B） Because Hyundai and Ford are joining the competition. （ C） Because customers have enough quality cars to choose from. （ D） Because the Camry and the Accord

45、are competing for supremacy. 31 What are the tablet makers strategically doing, facing the brutal competition?. （ A） Developing new products and reducing prices. （ B） Analyzing the results of the economic laws. （ C） Adapting to the furious pace of development. （ D） Providing best possible services f

46、or their products. 32 The author brings in the pairs of “Coke and Pepsi,Target and Wal-Mart,Engadget and Gizmodo“ (Para. 4) to make_. （ A） a comparison （ B） a contrast （ C） an abstraction （ D） an exemplification 33 What does the phrase “to keep its feet to the fire“ in the last paragraph mean? （ A）

47、To place Apples feet close to the fire. （ B） To pressure Apple into intensifying its competition （ C） To force Apple to dance hard on the fire. （ D） To advise Apple to strategically drop its side products. 34 Why does the author start with the car, industry before he focuses on tablet market? （ A） B

48、ecause he treats the car industry as the key point for his writing. （ B） Because the car industry is more important than table market. （ C） Because he uses the car analogy for a more effective argumentation. （ D） Because the model of the car is far more popular in the market. 34 So what are books go

49、od for? My best answer is that books produce knowledge by encasing it. Books take ideas and set them down, transforming them through the limitations of space into thinking usable by others. In 1959, C.P. Snow threw down the challenge of “two cultures,“ the scientific and the humanistic, pursuing their separate, unconnected lives within developed societies. In the new-media ecology of the 21st century, we may not have closed that gap, but the two cultures of the contemporary world
