The throwers lack of distance was a blessing. Had he gathered tips from the competitors of the hammer throw(链球) competition, which was taking place in the infield at the same time as the 100 final, the bottle could have hit one of the competitors. It ended up landing a few feet from Blake (lane5).Edith Bosch, a female Dutch judoka who won a bronze medal earlier during the Olympics, claimed that the man who threw the bottle was sitting near her and that she “beat” him. Whether thats true or the hyperbole (夸张的语句) of an aggravated athlete was unclear in the minutes after the incident. Pictures show a group of Dutch athletes sitting behind the starting area.Police took the man into custody(监护). He will appear in court on Monday morning.Neither Bolt nor Blake said they knew of the incident until they were informed by reporters. “I dont know who would have done that,” Bolt said.Gatlin was aware of it but implied it was only a slight distraction. “I didnt know what it was,” he said, according to the BBC, “but when youre in those blocks, the whole stadium is so quiet that you can hear a pin drop.”1.How many exact athletes are mentioned in the text?A.

Its an interesting and original form of tourism which will no doubt revolutionize real travel, and even make actual life somewhat different. On the banks of the River Rin, in the city of St. Alban, you can now take a half virtual, half real tour on horseback with the help of a piece of electronic equipment, earphones, and a science-fiction style visor (面罩) which contains a small camera. This modern equipment is called Life Clipper. It is the original idea of both Swiss inventor Jan Torpus, who studied in Barcelona, and German technology expert Nikolas Neecke. According to the instructions for the Life Clipper, once a tourist is equipped, hell need a guide to assist him to get used to seeing the world8through the visor. Once on the Rin riverbank, the tourist starts his journey with the sounds of the water, which are created by sensors(传感器).From here the tourist travels on foot to the St. Alban neighborhood, feeling and sensing the view with his hands, nose and mouth. What he sees are images between the year 1000 and the year 1500: carriages, princes, etc. This project sounds like something from science fiction and it looks funny when people in a visor try to touch a horse which isnt there. So far, this tourism has been a success only in Basilea, and will be introduced anywhere else in the world in the near future. This is a fun and unusual way of travelling. Surely it wont be long before we see a new and improved form of Life Clipper - one that isnt just for sightseeing, but also for other parts of our life. For example, instead of taking a bus to the office or university, we just sit at home and put on the visor, feeling as if we were m a different place, and virtual work becomes reality. 41.

Making music is something that we are born with. Theres a reason we refer to music as the“universal language”；there has been no known human culture without music,Dancingandmusic came before agriculture, and possibly even before languageThe fact that whale music andhuman music have so much in common suggests that music may exist before humans and that wemay be latecomers to the musical scene rather than being the inventors of music We begin life being affected by music; babies first begin to respond to music even beforetheir birth，Whether or not its true, everyone has heard that playing classical music; for your babysupposedly helps him or her become smarter. A study done in the United Kingdom concluded thatchildren were able to .recognize and even preferred music that they had heard lip to three monthsbefore birth. Although it made no difference whether it was rock music or country music, thebabies who were exposed to faster songs showed a stronger preference for that song than thosewho had heard something slower. Researchers have also found that the playing of soft backgroundmusic or a mothers soft singing actually helps premature (早产的）babies. Those who were.subjected to the music tended to gain weight faster and were able to leave hospitals earlier thanthose who werent. However, the study in the UK uncovers no links between babies listening tomusic and increased intelligence or brain development. Another experiment at the University of California at Irvine compared the puzzle-solvingabilities of 3-year-olds who were given piano lessons with those of others who sang, usedcomputers, or did nothing. The children studying the piano were better at the puzzlesAlso, highschool students with a musical background seem to do better in their SATs，Whether its naturalintelligence that helps the children do better in both music and math，or the music that helpsdevelop other areas, you cant deny the benefits of a musical background. On the other hand, its possible that some music and lyrics（歌词）could be had for childrenand teenagersThe lyrics of todays popular music are stated more and more clearly. A study oilmass media and teenagers showed that a group of 14- to 16-year-olds in 10 different southeasterncities listened to music an average of 40 hours per week. Obviously, the music they are listeningto plays a large part in their lives，and especially influences self-identity. So any bad influencesin the music will have a very direct effect on the teenagers.Several other experiments mentioned in the American Academy of Pediatrics policy statement on the "Effect of Music Lyrics and Music Videos on Children and Youth" supported this idea. One study from Sweden found that children who developed a preference to rock music were more likely to be influenced by their peers than by their parents. Others showed links between a predilection for heavy metal and detrimental behaviors, including taking drugs, self-killing risk, and other risk-taking habits. The American Acajeny of Pediatries (AAP) doesnt support the idea of censorship（检查制度）, but strongly encourages parents to monitor what their children are listening to. 50.Music is regarded as the “universal longunge” because_51.Acording to Paragrapg 3,what afgerts bubies preference for songs?
