Complete the diagram/Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage. Write NOT MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer. Lead poisoning happens when lead is present in high levels in the blood of a person. It is one of the most common medical problems found in children. And it’s important to recognize the presence of lead in children’s bodies because lead is very harmful. Children often go around and put things in their mouths like paint peelings. This is one of the main causes of lead poisoning. It has also been found that children born in poor families have higher chances of getting exposed to lead. Some of the common symptoms of lead poisoning in children are headaches, stomach pains, hair loss, muscle weakness, and weight loss, etc. Lead poisoning can have bad effects and can lead to heart diseases, kidney diseases and neurologicalproblems. It can also result in mental dullness and a low I . Q. level. There have been cases where lead poisoning proved to be terminal for children. It’s difficult to easily recognize whether a child is affected by lead poisoning, as the symptoms of this disease can occur due to some other medical problems. Therefore, children under the age of 6 should regularly be checked to know the level of lead in their blood through blood tests. It’s possible to completely cure a child with lead poisoning through treatment. Usually the oral medicine chelatoris given to the children. Sometimes, children are given an injectionfor reducing the lead level. Children who have very high level of lead in their blood would need treatment for a long period of time and would also be put on a special diet. Parents have to take certain precautions to lower the chance of lead poisoning in children. Cleaning the house regularly and removing shoes at the door after coming in form outside will prevent the lead particles from entering the house. Children should be put on a healthy diet, containing high proportionsof calcium and iron, such as eggs, milk, fruits, potatoes, etc.Which helps to keep the lead levels in control, in the children’s bodies. In short, it’s a must to be cautious and careful, and protect your children from the horrible results of lead poisoning.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet. Facts are sometimes more unusual than fiction. The following case makes Agatha Christie’s plot look like children’s literature. The medical inspection of Ronald Opus’s body showed that he died from a shot gun wound of the head. He had jumped from the top of a ten-storey building intending to commit suicide. As he fell past the ninth floor, a shotgun blast through a window killed him immediately. Neither the shooter nor Opus knew that a safety net had been put up at the eighth floor level to protect some window washers and that Opus would not have been able to complete his suicide anyway because of this. In the room on the ninth floor where the shotgun blast went through an elderly man and his wife were arguing and he was threatening her with the shotgun. He was so upset that when he pulled the trigger, he completely missed his wife and the pellets went through the window, striking the falling Opus. The old man said it was his long-term habit to threaten his wife with the unloaded shotgun. He had no intention to murder her. Therefore, the killing of Opus seemed to be an accident. That is, the gun had been accidentally loaded. The continuing investigation turned up a witness who saw the old couple’s son loading the shotgun six weeks before the fatal incident. It turned out that the old lady had cut off his son’s financial support and the son, knowing the habit of his father to use the shotgun threateningly against his mother, loaded the gun with the expectation that his father would shoot his mother. Further investigation showed that the son had become increasingly depressed over the failure of his attempt to engineer his mother’s murder. This led him to jump off the ten-storey building, only to be killed by a shotgun blast through a ninth floor window. The case was closed as a suicide. 查看更多

 

题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Some scientists say that animals in the ocean are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings. The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.
Decibels(分贝) measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of 120 decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decible level of 195 would have the same effect.
Some scientists have suggested setting a noise limit of 120 decibles in oceans. They have observed that noises above that level can frighten and confuse whales.
A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that loud noises could seriously injure some animals. The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing, which seriously affected the whales’ ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected(感染的).
Many researches whose work depends on ocean sounds disagree with a limit of 120 decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.
Scientists do not know how many and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists suspect that noise is a greater danger than they previously believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.
【小题1】The second paragraph mainly tells us that the noises on land and in water       .

A.are both from human activities.
B.both do harm to sea animals
C.are measured differently
D.have the same effect on humans
【小题2】As to(依据) the effects of noises on whales, which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A.They are deaf to noises.
B.Noises at a certain level may hurt them.
C.They are easily confused by noises.
D.Noises will limit their ability to reproduce.
【小题3】Many researchers think that the noise limit of 120 decibels would        .
A.protect whales from noises
B.benefit them a lot in their research work
C.do good to their health
D.increase industrial output
【小题4】What will scientists most probably do in the future?
A.Count the number of sea animals.
B.Stop their research on the ocean.
C.Study the effect of different noises.
D.Protect sea creatures from harmful noises.
