30、washes, little balls formed on the surface of the thin material.Do I care? Not at all. You get what you pay for. I have to admit I hate shopping. I dont care enough about spending money on clothes. I have other priorities.In You Are What You Wear, US writer Jennifer Baumgartner says peoples clothes

31、tell a story about their personality.She writes: “The clothes you choose to wear provide important information about you as a person: your approximate education level, your income, social status and even your level of self-esteem (自信).” When I started work as an undercover crime reporter, I had to s

32、hop for jeans and a hoodie in order to fit in with a rough and ready social group.I bought the hoodie in a charity shop. My daughters were astonished.

Scientists have been working hard to produce a material which will make building

38、s as well as people invisible. Now a Canadian company claims to have succeeded with magical textile (纺织品) called Quantum Stealth.British Columbia based on Hyperstealth Technology Corporation claims that the material makes its wearers completely invisible, even to people with night glasses.Also, just

39、 like the young wizards coat, it is light-weight and does not need cameras, batteries, lights or mirrors to operate. But best of all, it is cheap to make.As to how it really works, the company keeps it a top secret. Besides stating that they have successfully managed to bend light waves, so that the

40、y go round the material instead of through it, the company is not giving out any details. What it does detail is all the good uses that Quantum Stealth could be put to-ranging from protecting US and Canadian soldiers forced to step into enemy region, to allowing special armed forces to carry out sur

41、prise attack without any fear of being seen. And if that is not enough they even imagine creating aircrafts and submarines that can go completely undetected.To prove that Quantum Stealth really exists, the company has released photos and even a video showing its magical properties. For those that ar

42、e still sceptical, they have only one thing to say both the US and Canadian military officials have witnessed it live and are so impressed that they are working with Hyper stealth Technology to create the next generation “survival blanket” that could make the soldier invisible all at once! If this i

43、s indeed true, we have only one question: When will this magical fabric be available to the rest of us?55.

46、le have no faith in the photos and video provided at allD.The new product can still be improved for better use CAs a professor I have grown accustomed to the opinion regarding American education. We are repeatedly told that American schools are failing, that colleges are not teaching, and that the s

47、tudents of today are not as good as the students of the past.There are, of course, problems with the education system. Because of economic inequality some schools are significantly better than others and the ideas of equality of education and equality of opportunity are cruel jokes. However, the mer

48、e fact that there are some serious problems does not mean that all the dire claims are true.One stock (陈腐的) claim is that America has fallen behind the world in education in terms of performance on various tests. While the fact that America is behind other countries is a point of concern, there are

49、at least three points worth considering here. The first is the above-mentioned economic inequality which will tend to result in poorer performance when taking the average for America. The second is that many countries have put considerable effort into improving their education systems and hence it i

50、s worth considering that Americas decline is also due to the improvement of others. The third is the matter of the measures do they, in fact, present an accurate picture of the situation? I am not claiming that the data is bad. I am merely raising a reasonable concern about how accurate our picture

51、of education is at this time.Another stock claim is that American students are doing badly on standardized tests. While there is clearly value in assessment, it is reasonable to consider whether or not such tests are a proper and adequate measure of education. It is also worth considering whether th

52、e puzzle with these tests is itself causing damage to education. That is, as teachers teach for the test and students learn for the test, it might be the case that what is being taught is not what should be taught and what is being learned is not what should be learned.59. What does the underlined w

53、ord “dire” in the second paragraph mean? A. Exact or precise. B. Extremely serious or terrible. C. Fair or objective.D. Long and boring.60. Judging by the text ,the claims are centered on .A. what should be taught in the American classroom B. fair judgment of American education C. an accurate pictur

54、e of American collegesD. American students performance on tests61. The passage is written mainly to .A. defend American educationB. show dissatisfaction with American education C. explain why American students do badly on tests D. offer advice on American education reform CWASHINGTON The head of the

56、e problems of poverty, hunger and inequality are wide, urgent and a matter of survival of millions.“We know that despite the great successes of the last decade, there are still about 1.3 billion people living in extreme poverty, 870 million who go hungry every day, and 6.9 million children under fiv

57、e dying every year,” he said.But Kim told a Washington audience that the previous successful efforts to cut the number of people living in extreme poverty by half give them hope.“We are at an auspicious moment in history, when the successes of past decades and an increasingly favourable economic out

58、look combine to give developing countries a chance-for the first time ever-to end extreme poverty within a generation,” he said in a speech at Georgetown University. “Our duty now must be to ensure that these favourable circumstances are matched with deliberate decisions to realize this historic opp

59、ortunity.”Kim says success will require increasing the speed of economic growth, particularly in South Africa and South Asia.But he warned that civil unrest could happen if economic growth does not help people at all income levels, and also include women and youthKim says that the World Bank and oth

60、er development agencies will have more resources to get this job done right. “Meeting this 2030 goal will take extraordinary effort,” he said.However, Kim warned that all the progress in fighting poverty could be destroyed by climate disasters unless the nations of the world do more to prevent clima
