    A low-carbon lifestyle means cutting carbon dioxide emissions and living a life characterized by low-energy use, low consumption and low spending. This way of living is being accepted by a growing number of average people in China.
    Before low-carbon became a popular word here, some environmentally conscious people known as "Lohas" had already devoted themselves to living green, low-carbon lifestyles. Lohas is for "lifestyles of health and sustainability." It was first introduced in 1998 by American sociologist Paul Ray and later became a popular lifestyle in western countries. After this concept was introduced into China a few years ago, Lohas was translated into a proper Chinese word "lehuo," meaning happy living.
    Zhang Tao from a joint venture in Beijing is a Lohas supporter and follower. He and some others set up a Lohas club two years ago. They often get together to share their experiences about living green lifestyles or to volunteer for environmental protection activities.
    Zhang says Lohas is both a lifestyle and an attitude towards life rather than just a fashion or slogan.
    "A Lohas lifestyle means a natural and healthy life with low costs. We don't drive cars, and we try our best to save water and electricity. Some people misunderstand us as being too stingy. But in fact, most of us are well-paid. We don't do it to save money, but for the sake of the environment. Living a rich life doesn't mean you can waste resources. We hope what we do can help save energy and reduce the pressures on earth. I know our personal strength is too small, but the changes will be great if everyone can make a little contribution."
    64. A low-carbon lifestyle has the following features except_______.
    A. low energy     B. low wages     C. low consumption   D. low spending
    65. A Lohas is most likely to_______.
    A. drive a car to work every day   B. save money to live a better life
    C. turn off the tap when not using   D. leave the light on day and night
    66. What does the word “stingy” mean in the last paragraph?
    A. generous               B. mean              C. rich                D. willing
    67. In Zhangtao’s opinion, _________.
    A. Lohas is just a fashion or form     B. one shouldn’t get well paid
    C. one should live a happy life             D. environment protection depends on everyone

    Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two—thirds of the world’s population live within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
    In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many of man’s needs.
    The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is immense. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined.
    Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish (贝类动物) is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by Oriental people.
    Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
    Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.
    The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2020 the problems that prevent us from exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.
    1. The major things that the sea offers man are ______.
    A. fish and oil                           B. minerals and oil
    C. warm temperature and ocean currents       D. the food, energy sources, and minerals
    2. The sea serves the needs of man because ______.
    A. in provides man with food              B. it offers oil to man
    C. it supplies man with minerals            D. all of the above
    3. We can conclude from this passage that ______.
    A. the sea resources have largely been used up
    B. the sea, in the broad sense, has not yet been developed
    C. the problems that prevent us from using the food, minerals, and energy sources of the
    sea have already been solved.
    D. by the year 2000 , the technology will be good enough to exploit all the sea resources
    4. The underlined words Oriental people in the fourth paragraph probably mean ______.
    A. the people in Asia                  B. African people
    C. European people                   D. American people
    5. The best title for this passage is ______.
    A. Sea Harvest                       B. Sea Food
    C. Technology for Exploiting the Sea     D. Man and the Sea

    Educators and explorers Will Steger, John Stetson, Elizabeth Andre and Abby Fenton joined four Inuit hunters on a 1,200-mile, four-month-long dog-seld expedition (考察队) across the Canadian Arctic’s Baffin Island.
    The expedition is travelling with four Inuit dog teams over traditional hunting paths, up frozen rivers, through steep-sided bays, over glaciers and ice caps, and across the sea ice to reach some of the most remote Inuit village of the world.
    The travelers wake up early around 6 a. m . During the course of the day they are able to travel about 17 miles. They hope to be able to travel 25 miles or 30 miles per day. They manage their body temperature by adding or taking off layers depending on their level activity.
    Team member Elizabeth Andre had to leave the expedition because of frostbite(冻伤) . She was disappointed to miss part of the expedition, but leaving the field was the right decision to protect her fingers from any more damage. She will rejoin the expedition in Pangnirtung, the next village. Elizabeth feels how tough the weather condition can be in the Arctic. She is beginning to appreciate how much skill and knowledge of the environment the Inuit people have.
    The expedition team plan to eat a combination of country foods from Iglulik, fresh meat hunted on the trail, and dried food packed out from Steger’s homeland in Minnesota.
    The expedition members have already begun to notice the effects of global warming. Theo, a native Inuit traveling with the team, points out that “Looking at what we saw today －we saw that there haven’t been caribou(驯鹿) tracks for a long time. Usually, you look out of your window in Iqaluit and you see them. Now numbers are down”. Theo was born in an igloo(冰屋)and has lived in Inuit for most of his life.
    49. The main purpose of the expedition is to_______.

    When the research on the effect of electric fields on E．coli was begun in 1962, it was essential that a biologist–specifically, a microbiologist–contributed to the project．She does not want her name used because she did not become a scientific researcher for fame, but rather for the challenge of putting pieces of a scientific puzzle together．
    As a girl, she was inspired by the work of great scientists: she read the story of the cure of malaria in the Panama Canal; she also read a biography of Madame Curie．These accounts inspired her to pursue a career in scientific research．After high school, she worked for the Michigan Department of Health, where she did research in biology and microbiology．There, her colleagues saw her talent and encouraged her to pursue science as a career．She went on to earn a bachelor’s degree from Michigan State University in 1948 in medical technology．
    When she began working at Michigan State in the early 1960s,
    she was balancing the demands of scientific research with the needs
    of her family．At that time both of her children were in school．She
    would work in the lab in the morning while they were at school,
    go home to see them at lunch, return to the lab for the afternoon, go
    home for dinner, and return to the lab in the evening, if necessary．
    At that time, there were fewer women scientists working than
    there are today, but she encountered several in her career．At the
    Michigan Department of Health, many of her colleagues were women and, consequently, she did not feel isolated because of her gender–nor did she feel that she was treated differently because she was a woman．      
    While working at Michigan State, she also felt that she was treated with respect by her peers．Her colleagues, among them doctors and Ph．D．chemists, all treated her as an equal．On the whole, she believes that there is not a great deal of difference between men and women in science．
    56．Why does the woman scientist refuse to let out her name?
    A．Because she is a shy lady．
    B．Because she doesn’t mind her fame．    
    C．Because she never takes pride in her research．
    D．Because she never works for her fame．
    57．What is the noble lady scientist really interested in?
    A．The life stories of other women scientists．
    B．Biology and microbiology．

    .
    Part Ⅰ starts with a brief introductory chapter and then takes up Style and Organization, covering them in that order because skill or lack of skill in style affects all writing, while much technical writing is so short as to offer no problems of organization. These chapters are followed by one on Mechanics, covering matters of form that are peculiar(独有) to technical writing or else crop up in it with abnormal frequency.
    The chapter on Special Problems, which follows, performs a double function. It provides writing assignments that may be used while the study of style, organization, and mechanics is still under way, and it explains ways of handling certain problems that may arise during the writing of reports, proposals, and other longer forms. We have also expanded the treatment of technical articles — recognizing the potential contribution of article writing to the career of the writer and the value of the article to science and technology.
    In Part Ⅱ, a change of emphasis at one point is reflected in the new title for Chapter 8, Nonformal Reports — Their Variation in Form and Purpose, which was formerly called Special Types of Reports. Though certain special types of reports are still discussed, additional emphasis is given to the fact that there does not exist any universally accepted set of types, under which all reports can be classified.
    Two other extensive changes have been made in Part Ⅱ: The chapter on Proposals, which first appeared in the second edition, has been rewritten and substantially expanded so as to cover that important subject more thoroughly. Also, an entirely new chapter, Oral Presentation of Technical Information, has been added. Though a study of this chapter is no substitute for training in public speaking, we believe that its recommendations can nevertheless be of substantial assistance to those who use this book on the numerous occasions when they will be called upon to present their ideas in person before a small group or a large audience.
    ?1.The passage is most probably a preface to ____.
    ?A. a technical writing handbook   B. a handbook on composition
    ?C. a book on a literary writing    D. a scientific paper
    2. In Part I, the writer arranges the chapters in the order of ____.
    ? A. Introduction—Organization—Special Problems—Style—Nonformal Reports
    ? B. Introduction—Style—Organization—Special Types of Reports—Mechanics
    ? C. Introduction—Style—Organization—Mechanics—Special Problems
    ? D. Introduction—Style—Proposals—Special Problems—Mechanics
    ?3.You can find some writing exercises in ____.
    ? A. the chapter on Organization        B. the chapter on Style
    ? C. the chapter on Special Problems     D. the chapter on Proposals
    ?4. According to the passage, the chapter on Oral Presentation of Technical Information appears in ____ of the book.
    ? A. Part Ⅰ of the first edition
    ? B. Part Ⅱ of the second edition
    ? C. Part Ⅰ of the second edition
    ? D. Part Ⅱ of the third edition
    ?5. Which of the following is not true of Part Ⅱ of the new edition?
    ? A. There isn’t the chapter on Special Types of Reports.
    ? B. The chapter on Oral Presentation of Technical Information is rewritten and expanded.
    ? C. The chapter on Proposals is a revised chapter.
    ? D. There is a change of the title of Chapter 8.

    C
    A blow-fly was looking for an ideal place like rotting meat to lay her eggs so that when her little babies were born, they could feed on the meat.
    As she turned a corner in the grassland, she smelt something that smells like rotten meat in the air! With a great joy she landed on it and laid her eggs. She was happy that her children would have enough food to eat.
    But the fly did not know she had made a great mistake. What she had sat upon was not meat but a flower, which smells badly. It is called a carrion flower. So, when the blow-fly’s eggs hatched and the little maggots（蛆）came out, they had nothing to eat. They died of starvation.
    The carrion flower is one of the many flowers which send out dirty smells to attract flies. The Rafflesia stinks like rotting meat, while the tropical Lords and Ladies flower gives out a smell like rotting fish.
    They do it for a special reason. These plants cannot move from their place. But it is important for the male cell of one plant to get in touch with the female cell of another plant. Once that is done, the seed of the plant will bloom and give birth to another plant.
    The plant uses its stink to attract flies. As soon as the blow-fly sits on the follower, it is captured by the flower with strong hair. When the hair falls, the fly is free to fly- but it takes some pollen（花粉） with it. And goes and sits on another plant. The male cell of one plant meets the female cell of the other. The seed gets new life.
    64. Why did the fly land on something smelly?
    A. She was too careless before her bearing.       B. She liked the particular smell very much
    C. She hoped to find some food for her babies.    D. She couldn’t find a better place for delivery.
    65. The little maggots finally died because_________.
    A. they were born too weak             B. they lacked food available
    C. carrion flower were poisonous         D. their mother didn’t take care of them
    66. Flowers like carrion flower and Rafflesia naturally smell terrible so that_________.
    A. they need insects to spread their pollen     B. they succeed in producing more seeds
    C. their seeds can be carried to other places    D. they can manage to absorb more nutrients
    67. What is the best title of the text?
    A. Dirty Tricks        B. Smelly Plants   C. A strange Flower   D. Secrets of Nature.
