(There are others who claimed to the title, but only Calment had the official documents to prove her age.)Each Februa

24、ry 21, her birthday, she would share the secrets of long life. Some years it was “a sense of humour”, others it was “keeping busy”. “God must have forgotten me,” she once explained. The truth probably was that she had good genes: her mother reportedly lived to be 86 and her father 94.Her life had it

25、s sadness: she outlived her husband, her only daughter and her grandson. According to a friend, she was imperturbable. “If you cant do anything about it,” she reportedly said, “dont worry about it.”In her last years she was nearly blind and deaf, but her health remained good. She ate a few bars of c

26、hocolate each week and continued smoking until a few years ago, when she could no 金太阳新课标资源网金太阳新课标资源网 第 4 页 共 12 页 金太阳新课标资源网金太阳新课标资源网 longer light her own cigarettes.

But the dreams may soon come true as research findings in laboratories are being turned into products more rapidly in the new century, according to experts participating in the fourth Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) T

31、echnomart, a technology exhibition and trade fair in Suzhou.Most people think nano-technology（纳米技术）is too far-fetched to be real. But in fact nano-technology has been applied in a wide range of fields, such as medicine. It is coming into our daily life, said Cheng Jiachong from a Hong Kong-based nan

32、o-technology firm. Nano-technology based on the nanometer, the unit of which is a billionth of a meter, enables scientists to have new concepts of disease diagnosis and treatment on a molecular（分子）and atomic scale, Cheng said.By using nanometer particles, a doctor can separate the fetus cells（胚胎细胞）f

33、rom the blood of a pregnant woman to see if the development of the fetus is normal. This method is also being used in the early diagnosis of cancer and heart disease, he said.One of the most significant impacts of nano-technology is at the bio-inorganic materials interface, according to Greg Tegart,

34、 executive advisor of the APEC Center for Technology Foresight.By combining enzymes（酶）and silicon chips we can produce biosensors. These could be implanted in humans or animals to monitor health and to deliver corrective doses（剂量）of drugs, he told the participants a technology forum during the exhib

35、ition.Nano-technology could affect the production of nearly every man-made object, from automobiles, tires and computer circuits（电路）, to advanced medicines and tissue replacement, and lead to the invention of objects yet to be imagined, said David Minns, a special advisor to the National Research Co

40、ice available on the Internet which offers you the chance to compare two different items and see how many hits they get on the Google search engine. The seemingly simple device has proved invaluable to users, especially to help win arguments. For example, imagine that you and your friends are arguin

41、g about who are the most popular music or movie stars, you can decide the argument by writing the names in the Googlefight boxes. Lets say that you are arguing about Jackie Chan and Jet Li. You will quickly discover that Jet Li is mentioned 16 million times on Google pages, whereas Jackie Chan is me

42、ntioned a mere 12 million times! In this unscientific way, you can claim victory for one Star over another.But teachers have come up with ways of using Googlefight which are much more useful from an academic point of view, particularly when it comes to studying languages. You can, for example, find

43、out the frequency of two words with the same meaning, and deduce (推断) from the answers which one is more common. For example, lets take the words “buy” and “purchase”, which mean the same thing (although “buy” is only a verb and “purchase” is both a verb and a noun). It is immediately clear from Goo

44、glefight that “buy” is much more commonly used, with a massive three and a half billion hits, compared to only one billion occurrences for the more formal word.But the real value of Googlefight to the language learner is in determining which is the more common of two phrases. For example, “raining c

45、ats and dogs” is an old-fashioned English expression about the weather. Do English speakers still use it? Or are they more likely to say “pouring down”? Googlefight suggests the latter. “Pouring down” has 898,000 Google hits, whereas “raining cats and dogs” only has 326,000.With phrases, its importa

46、nt to remember that you need to use quote marks to make the 金太阳新课标资源网金太阳新课标资源网 第 6 页 共 12 页 金太阳新课标资源网金太阳新课标资源网 search more accurate. For example, if you type in the similar phrases “look after” and “take care of “ without quote marks, the second phrase seems to be more common, but with quote marks,

47、the result is reversed.49. What is Googlefight?A. A fight between two people on Google.B. A way to make sure you win an argument.C. A website showing how many hits two different things have.D. A list of all the websites on Google.50. Language teachers find it useful because _.A. there are a lot of w

48、ords on GooglefightB. it can tell them which of the two words with the same meaning appears more oftenC. some words mean the same thingD. common words have a billion hits51. What must you remember to do if you are checking phrases by Googlefight?A. Make sure they mean be same thing.B. Make sure they

49、 are different.C. Remember to put quote marks round the phrase.D. Dont put quote marks round the phrase.52. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. Googlefight is effective to determine the more common of two phrases.B. Googlefight is a scientific way to decide an argument.C. Quote m

50、arks can make the search more accurate.D. Googlefight is invaluable to help win arguments.D Celebrity (名人) has become one of the most important representatives of popular culture. Fans used to be crazy about a specific film, but now the public tends to base its consumption on the interest of celebri

51、ty attached to any given product. Besides, fashion magazines have almost abandoned the practice of putting models on the cover because they dont sell nearly as well as famous faces. As a result, celebrities have realized their unbelievably powerful market potential, moving from advertising for other

52、s products to developing their own. Celebrity clothing lines arent a completely new phenomenon, but in the past they were typically aimed at the ordinary consumers, and limited to a few TV actresses. Today theyre started by first-class stars whose products enjoy equal fame with some world top brands

53、. The most successful start-ups have been those by celebrities with specific personal style. As celebrities become more and more experienced at the market, they expand their production scale rapidly, covering almost all the products of daily life. However, for every success story, theres a related w

54、arning tale of a celebrity who overvalued his consumer appeal. No matter how famous the products origins is, if it fails to impress consumers with its own qualities it begins to resemble an exercise in self-promotional marketing. And once the initial (最初的）attention dies down, consumer interest might

55、 fade, loyalty returning to tried-and-true labels.Today, celebrities face ever more severe embarrassment. The pop-cultural circle might be 金太阳新课标资源网金太阳新课标资源网 第 7 页 共 12 页 金太阳新课标资源网金太阳新课标资源网 bigger than ever, but its rate of turnover has speeded up as well. Each misstep threatens to reduce a celebrit

56、ys shelf life, and the same newspaper or magazine that once brought him fame has no problem picking him to pieces when the opportunity appears. Still, the egos (自我的）potential for expansion is limitless. Having already achieved great wealth and public recognition, many celebrities see fashion as the

57、next frontier to be conquered. As the saying goes, success and failure always go hand in hand. Their success as designers might last only a short time, but fashion like celebrity has always been temporary.53. Fashion magazines today _. A. seldom put models on the cover B. no longer put models on the

58、 cover C. need not worry about celebrities market potential D. judge the market potential of every celebrity correctly 54. A change in the consumer market can be found today that _. A. price rather than brand name is more concerned B. producers prefer models to celebrities for achievements C. produc

59、ers prefer TV actresses to film stars for advertisements D. quality rather than the outside of products is more concerned55. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 indicates that any wrong step will possibly _. A. decrease the popularity of a celebrity and the sales of his products B. damage the ima

60、ge of a celebrity in the eyes of the general public C. cut short the artistic careen of a celebrity in show business D. influence the price of a celebritys products56. The passage is mainly about _. A. celebrity and personal style B. celebrity and market potential C. celebrity and fashion design D.

61、celebrity and clothing industryEA study involving 8,500 teenagers from all social backgrounds found that most of them are ignorant when it comes to money. The findings, the first in a series of reports from NatWest that has started a five-year research project into teenagers and money, are particula

62、rly worrying as this generation of young people is likely to be burdened with greater debts than any before.University tuition fees are currently capped at 3,000 annually, but this will be reviewed next year and the Government is under enormous pressure to raise the ceiling.In the research, the teen

63、agers were presented with the terms of four different loans but 76 per cent failed to identify the cheapest. The young people also predicted that they would be earning on average 31.000 by the age of 25, although the average salary for those aged 22 to 29 is just 17,815. The teenagers expected to be

64、 in debt when they finished university or training, although half said that they assumed the debts would be less than 10.000. Average debts for graduates are 12,363.Stephen Moir, head of community investment at the Royal Bank of Scotland Group which owns NatWest, said. The more exposed young people

65、are to financial issues, and the younger 金太阳新课标资源网金太阳新课标资源网 第 8 页 共 12 页 金太阳新课标资源网金太阳新课标资源网 they become aware of them, the more likely they are to become responsible, forward-planning adults who manage their finances confidently and effectively.Ministers are deeply concerned about the financial pres
