For as long as they can remember Jynne Martin and April Surgent had both dreamed of going to Antarctica.This winter,they each made it to the icy continent as guests of the National Science Foundation(NSF).Bm they didn’t go as scientists.Martin is a poet and Surgent is an artist.They went to Antarctica as participants.in the NSF’s Artists and Writers program.The NSF is thegovernment agency that funds scientific research in Antarctica.But it also makes it possible for artists,including filmmakers and musicians,to experience Antarctica and contribute their own points of view to our understanding of the continent.
The mixing of science and art in Antarctica isn’t new.Some of the earliest explorersbrought along painters and photographers.Edward Wilson was a British painter,doctor,and bird expert who journeyed with RobertFalcon Soott on two separate Antamtic expeditionsmore than 100 years ago.Herbert Ponting was a photographer who also accompanied Scott on one of those expeditions.In hundreds of photos,Pontingcaptured the beauty of the continentand recorded the daily lives and heroic struggles of the explorers.
Today’s scientists write articles forscientificjournals.Unlike theearly explorers’journals,scientific papers can now be very difficult for non-scientists to understand.Writers in Antarctica workto explain the research to the public.Peter Rejcek is editor,writer,and photographer for the Antarctic Sun,an onlinemagazine devoted to news about the U.S.Antarctic Program.Rejeck began his career in the Antarctic in 2003 by spending a year at the South Pole.He has returned everyyear since,interviewing,scientists about research at Palmer,McMurdo,and South Pole stations.
There are also scientists in Antarctica who work hardto explain their research to the public.Scientist Diane McKnight wrote The Lost Seal,a children’s book that explains the research she and others are doing in an unusual ice-free area in Antarctica called the Dry Valleys.
Antarctica is full of stories and wonders that are scientific,historic.and personal. People such as Martin,Surgent,Rejcek,and McKnight are devoted to bringing those storiesto asmany peopleare they can.“Some people are going to be scientists,some people are goingto be journalists,some people are going to be artists,but we can all work together,’saysSurgent,“tocelebrate,thisextraordinary place.”

任务型阅读,请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意:每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。
ID systems are used as a means for people to prove their identity, as a means of access control, or for many other situations. ID cards also contain a lot more information than simply the name of the holder. All ID cards contain information that is relevant to the institution that released them, so there is no single model that applies to all ID cards.
Different institutions have different rules when it comes to ID cards, and ID cards used by students, in universities, will not have the same security features as those used in the military, for example. The more important the institution is, the more important the security is, and the more security features will be used to prevent duplication(复制) of an ID card.
Anyone with a printer that can print ID cards can duplicate in ID card, if it does not have any security measures. There have been lots of cases, especially in low security institutions, where ID cards have been duplicated and this was not noticed, since the person holding the card usually flashed it when it was requested, and that was not enough to notice that it is a fake.
That may not be extremely important when it is simply a case of a student trying to enter the campus of another university, but it can be of vital importance if it happens in a military institution. Checks in military institutions are much stricter and the personnel checking the card are always trained to spot fakes in a short amount of time.
Some may think that creating an ID card is extremely difficult, but it is not. All it takes is a special printer that can print ID cards, a model and a photo ID. The fact that such printers can be freely ordered online has raised security issues with lots of companies and institutions, and most have decided to either create their own ID cards, or simply use more advanced security features that regular home-users do not have access to. This includes magnetic stripes(磁条), chips, barcodes(条形码),and other methods. This does increase the cost of the card per person, so the total cost of the cards increases based on the number of employees the company has, but it also reduces security risks to a minimum.
So ID systems, as basic as they seem, are an excellent security measure for any institution. To ensure that the IDs look good and function properly, the company that handles the card printing services should be top-class. Trying to save some money by choosing a cheaper provider is not really wise. While some companies offer bonuses for large orders, if the quality provided is not of the highest standard, it is not worth it.

On Nov. 18, 1995, violinist Itzhak Perlman performed a concert at Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center in New York City.
Stricken with polio (小儿麻痹症) as a child,Perlman walked with the aid of two crutches(拐杖)to a chair in the middle of the stage.He carefully laid the crutches on the floor, one leg forward and the other underneath his chair, picked up his instrument and nodded to the to begin.
But something went wrong. After only seconds of playing, one of the strings on his violin .The audience immediately knew what happened and fully expected the concert to be until another string or even another insrument could be found. But Perlman them. He quickly calmed down, closed his eyes and then the conductor to begin again.So the orchestra played from where they had and Perlman played on three strings. He played passion and power. All the time he worked out new fingering in his mind to make up for the string. A work that few people play well on four strings Perlman accomplished on three.
When he finished, a(n) silence hung in the room.And then as one, the crowd rose to their feet and wildly.Applause burst forth from every corner of the auditorium fans showed deep for his talent and his courage. Perlman smiled and wiped the sweat from his forehead.Then he raised his bow to the crowd and said, not proudly, but in a , quiet, holy tone, “You know. sometimes it is the artist's to find out how much music you can still make with what you have left.”
Such was Itzhak Perlman. a great violinist. Playing a concert on three strings is not unlike his philosophy of life -- he what he had left and still made music.And isn't that true with us?As for me I'm that the world, more than ever, needs the music only you and I can make.
