They can hold your books, your lunch, and a change of clothes, leaving your hands free to

25、do other things. Someday, if you dont mind carrying a heavy load, your backpacks might also power your MP3 player, keep your cell phone running, and maybe even light your way home. Lawrence C. Rome and his colleagues from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and the Marine Biological Labor

26、atory in Woods Hole, Mass. , have invented a backpack that makes electricity from energy produced while its wearer walks. In military actions, search-and-rescue operations, and scientific field studies, people rely increasingly on cell phones, global positioning system (GPS) receivers, night-vision

27、goggles, and other battery-powered devices to get around and do their work. The backpacks electricity-generating feature could dramatically reduce the amount of a wearers load now devoted to spare batteries, report Rome and his colleagues in the Sept. 9 Science. The backpacks electricity-crew, ring

28、powers depend on springs used to hang a cloth pack from its metal frame. The frame sits against the wearers back, and the whole pack moves up and down as the person walks. A gear mechanism converts vertical movements of the pack to rotary motions of an electrical generator, producing up to 7.4 watts

29、. Unexpectedly, tests showed that wearers of the new backpack alter their gaits in response to the packs oscillations, so that they carry loads more comfortably and with less effort than they do ordinary backpacks. Because of that surprising advantage, Rome plans to commercialize both electric and n

30、on-electric versions of the backpack. The backpack could be especially useful for soldiers, scientists, mountaineers, and emergency workers who typically carry heavy backpacks. For the rest of us, power-generating backpacks could make it possible to walk, play video games, watch TV, and listen to mu

31、sic, all at the same time.

34、e act or an instance of jumping or leaping. （ D） a length of metal wound around, which returns to its original shape after being pushed. 34 According to Paragraph 4, what does Rome plan to do? （ A） To make the backpack more comfortable for the wearer. （ B） To put the backpack on the market. （ C） To

35、test the advantage of the backpack. （ D） To promote the backpack in a newspaper or on television. 35 What is implied in “if you do get one eventually, just make sure to look both ways before crossing the street ! “? （ A） You will be too excited to watch the traffic. （ B） Enjoying electronic devices

Consider some recent developments: The child-murderers in the J

37、onesboro, Ark. schoolyard shooting case were convicted and sentenced. Two boys, 7 and 8, were charged in the murder of an 11-year-old girl in Chicago. Children who commit horrible crimes appear to act of their own will. Yet, as legal proceedings in Jonesboro showed, the one boy who was able to addre

38、ss the court couldnt begin to explain his acts, though he tried to apologize. There may have been a motive-youthful jealousy(妒忌 ) and resentment. But a deeper question remains. Why did these boys and others in similar trouble apparently lack any inner, moral restraint? That question echoes for the a

39、ccused in Chicago, young as they are. They wanted the girls bicycle, a selfish impulse common enough among kids. Redemption (拯救 ) is a practical necessity. How can value be restored to young lives distorted by acts of violence? The boys in Jonesboro and in Chicago will be confined in institutions fo

40、r a relatively short time. Despite horror at what was done, children are not-cannot be-dealt with as adults, not if a people wants to consider itself civilized. Thats why politicians cries for adult treatment of youthful criminals ultimately miss the point. But the moral void(真空 )that invites violen

41、ce has many sources. Family instability con-tributes. So does economic stress. That void, however, can be filled. The work starts with parents, who have to ask themselves whether theyre doing enough to give their children a firm sense of right and wrong. Are they really monitoring their activities a

42、nd their developing processes of thought? Schools, too, have a role in building character. So do youth organizations. So do law enforcement agencies, which can do more to inform the young about laws, their meaning, and their observance (遵守 ). The goal, ultimately, is to allow all children a normal p

43、assage from childhood to adulthood (成年 ), so that tragic gaps in moral judgment are less likely to occur. The relative few who fill such gaps with acts of violence hint at many others who dont go that far, but who lack the moral foundations childhood should provide-and which progressive human societ

44、y relies on. 36 The two boys in Chicago were_. （ A） shot （ B） murdered （ C） sentenced （ D） accused 37 Thy boys in Jonesboro and Chicago apparently lacked a sense of_. （ A） discipline （ B） right and wrong （ C） shame （ D） safety 38 According to politicians, when children commit crimes, they should be

47、Gerontologists (老年人问题学者 ) study how old people are treated within a society and how the elderly deal with the inevitable problems of aging, particularly those involving health and income. Health problems include normal losses in hearing, eyesight, and memory, and the increased possibility of chronic

48、(慢性的 )diseases. These losses are gradual and proceed at different rates for each individual. In general, the health of old people today is better than that of earlier generation-a condition that is likely to improve still further as more people receive better medical care through their lives. Becaus

49、e most old people are no longer in the labor force, a steady source of income is necessary. Systems of pensions and benefits are characteristic of industrial societies. One example is Social Security in the U. S. , which is now increased automatically as the cost of living rises, thus reducing somewhat the effect of inflation. Although the income of retired people is about half that of working people, most
