Mother Nature Shows Her Strength
Tornadoes(龙卷风)and heavy thunderstorms moved across the Great Lakes and into
Trumbull County on Saturday evening．The storms were dramatic and dangerous．
George Snyder was driving the fire truck down Route 88 when he first noticed that a funnel
(漏斗状的)cloud was behind him．“I stopped the truck and watched the funnel cloud．It was
about 100 feet off the ground and I saw it go up and down for a while．It was moving toward
Bradley Road and then suddenly it disappeared．”Snyder said．
Snyder only saw one of the funnel clouds that passed through northeastern 0hio on
Saturday．In Trumbull County，a tornado turned trees onto their sides．Some trees fell onto
houses and cars．Other trees fell into telephone and electrical wires as they went down．
Amanda Sym check was having a party when the storm began．“I knew something was
wrong, ”he said．“I saw the sky go green and pink(粉红色)．Then it sounded like a train
rushing toward the house．I started crying and told everyone to go to the basement for
protection．”
The tornado caused a 10t of damage to cars and houses in the area．It will take a long time
and much money to repair everything．There was also serious water damage from the
thunderstorms．The heavy rains and high wind caused the power to go out in many homes．
The storms caused serious flooding in areas near the river．More than four inches of rain fell
in parts of Trumbull County．The river was so high that the water ran into streets and houses．
Many streets had to be closed to Cars and trucks because of the high water．This made it difficult
for fire trucks，police Cars，and other rescue vehicles to help people who were in trouble．
Many people who live near the river had to leave their homes for their own safety．Some
people reported five feet of water in their homes．Local and state officials opened emergency
shelters for the people who were evacuated(撤走)．’The Red Cross served meals to them．
“This was a really intense storm，”said Snyder．“People were afraid．Mother Nature can be
fierce．We were lucky this time．No one was killed”

Earth Angels
1 Joying Brescia was 8 years old when she noticed that cigarette butts(烟头)were littering
her hometown beach in Isle of Palms，South Carolina．When she learned that it takes five years
for the remains of a cigarette to disintegrate，she decided to take action．Joying launched a“No
Butts on the Beach” campaign．She raised money and awareness about the need to keep the
beaches dean．With the help of others．Joying also bought or received donations of gallon-size
plastic ice．cream buckets．The buckets were filled with sand。and placed at a11 public-access
areas of the beach．The buckets allowed people to dispose of their cigarettes before hitting the
beach．Two years later。Joying says the buckets are fun and the beach is nearly free of cigarette
debris(残片)．
2 People who 1ive in or visit Steamboat Springs，Colorado．have Carter Dunham to thank for
a new state wildlife refuge that preserves 20 acres of marshland and many species of wildlife．
Carter and other students wrote a management plan for the area around the Yampa River．The
plan was part of a class project when Carter was a freshman at Steamboat Springs High Schoo1.
Working with the Colorado Division of Wildlife．Carter and his classmates mapped the area and
species of animals living there．They also made decisions about．among other things。where
fences and parking areas should be built．
3 Barbara Brown and her friends collect oil．It started as a project for their 4H Club after one
of the girls noticed her father using motor oil to kill weeds on their farm in Victoria。Texas．They
did some research and discovered that oil can contaminate ground water--a real danger in rural
areas．where people live off the water on their 1and．The girls researched ways to recycle oil and
worked with a local oil-recycling company on the issue．Now．the“Don’t Be Crude”program
runs oil．collection sites--tanks that hold up to 460 gallons--where people in the community can
dispose of their oil．
4 Five years ago．11-year-old Ryan Hreljac was a little boy with a big dream：for all the
people in Africa to have clean drinking water．His dream began in the first grade when he
1earned that people were dying because they didn’t have clean water，and that as 1ittle as$70
could build a well．“We really take water for granted，”says Ryan，of Kemptville，Ontario，in
Canada．“In other countries．you have to plan for it．”Ryan earned the first$70 by doing extra
chores(零工)，but with the help of others，he has since raised hundreds of thousands of dollars．
His efforts led to the start of the Ryan’s Well Foundation，which raises money for clean water
and health．related services for people in African countries and developing countries．

第一篇
Technology Transfer in Germany
When it comes to translating basic research into industrial success．few nations can match
Germany．Since the 1 940s．the nation’s vast industrial base has been fed with a constant stream
of new ideas and expertise from science．And though German prosperity(繁荣)has faltered(衰
退1 over the past decade because of the huge cost of unifying east and west as well as the global
economic decline，it still has an enviable(令人羡慕的)record for turning ideas into profit．
Much of the reason for that success is the Fraunhofer Society，a network of research
institutes that exists solely to solve industrial problems and create sought．after technologies．But
today the Fraunhofer institutes have competition．Universities are taking an ever larger role in
technology transfer，and technology parks are springing up all over．These efforts are being
complemented by the federal programmes for pumping money into start-up companies．
Such a strategy may sound like a recipe for economic success．but it is not without its critics．
These people worry that favouring applied research will mean neglecting basic science，
eventually starving industry of flesh ideas．If every scientist starts thinking like an entrepreneur
(企业家)，the argument goes，then the traditional principles of university research being
Curiosity driven，free and widely available will Suffer．Others claim that many of the
programmes to promote technology transfer are a waste of money because half the small
businesses that are promoted are bound to go bankrupt within a few years．
Ⅵmile this debate continues．new ideas flow at a steady rate from Germany’s research
networks，which bear famous names such as Helmholtz，Max Planck and Leibniz．Yet it is the
fourth network，the Fraunhofer Society，that plays the greatest role in technology transfer．
Founded in 1949,the Fraunhofer Society is now Europe’s largest organisation for applied
technology, and has 59 institutes employing 1 2，000 people．It continues to grow．Last year, it
Swallowed up the Heinrich Hertz Institute for Communication Technology in Berlin．Today,
there are even Fraunhofers in the US and Asia．
31 What factor can be attributed to German prosperity?
A Technology transfer．
B Good management
C Hard work．
D Fierce competition
32 Which of the following is NOT true of traditional university research?
A It is free．
B It is profit—driven．
C It is widely available．
D It is curiosity—driven．
33 The Fraunhofer Society is the largest organisation for applied technology in
A Asia．
B USA．
C Europe．
D Africa．
34 When was the Fraunhofer Society founded?
A In 1940.
B Last year．
C After the unification．
D In 1949.
35 The word “expertise’’ in line 3 could be best replaced by
A “experts”．
B “scientists”． ．
C “scholars”．
D “special knowledge”．

Superconductor Ceramic(陶瓷)
An underground revolution begins this winter．with the flip(轻击)of a switch，30，000
homes in one part of Detroit will soon become the first in the country to receive electricity
transmitted by ice．cold high．performance cables．Other American cities are expected to follow
Detroit’s example in the years ahead．which could conserve enormous amounts of power．
The new electrical cables at the Frisbie power station in Detroit are revolutionary because
they are made of superconductors．A superconductor is a material that transmits electricity with
little or no resistance．Resistance is the degree to which a substance resists electric current．All
common electrical conductors have a certain amount of electrical resistance．They convert at
least some of the electrical energy passing through them into waste heat．Superconductors don’t·
No one understands how superconductivity works．It just does．
Making superconductors isn’t easy．A superconductor material has to be cooled to an
extremely low temperature to 10se its resistance．The first superconductors，made more than 50
years ago，had to be cooled to一263 degrees Celsius before they lost their resistance．Newer
superconducting materials 10se their resistance at一143 degrees Celsius．
The superconductors cable installed at the Frisbie station is made of a ceramic material
that contains copper．oxygen．bismuth(铋)。strontium(锶)．and calcium(钙)．A ceramic is a
hard．strong compound made from clay or minerals．The superconducting ceramic has been
fashioned into a tape that is wrapped lengthwise around a long tube filled with liquid nitrogen．
Liquid nitrogen is supercold and lowers the temperature of the ceramic tape to the point where it
conveys electricity with zero resistance．
The United States loses an enormous amount of electricity each year to resistance．
Because cooled superconductors have no resistance．they waste much less power．0ther cities
are watching the Frisbie experiment in the hope that they might switch to superconducting cable
and conserve power．too．
36 What is the benefit of the revolution mentioned in the first paragraph?
A With a flip of swish．electricity can be transmitted．
B Other American cities can benefit from the high·performance cables．
C Great amounts of power can be conserved．
D Detroit will first receive electricity transmitted by the new electrical cables
37 Compared to common electrical conductors，superconductors
A have little or no electrical resistance．
B Can be used for along time．
C are not energy-efficient．
D can be made easily．
38 At what temperature does the superconducting ceramic lose its resistance?
A-143 degree Celsius．
B一263 degree Celsius．
C As long as it is ice-cold．
D Absolute zero．
39 What element enables the ceramic tape to lower its temperature?
A Copper．
B Liquid nitrogen．．
C Clay．
D Calcium．
40 According to the last paragraph，which of the following statements is NOT true?
A Other cities hope they Can also conserve power．
B Other cities hope they Can use superconducting cables soon．
C Superconductors waste less power because of their low resistance．
D The Fribie experiment is not successful．

The Science of the Future
Until recently，the“science of the future”was supposed to be electronics and artificial
intelligence．Today it seems more and more likely that the next great breakthroughs in
technology will be brought through a combination Of those two sciences with organic chemistry
and genetic engineering．This combination is the science of biotechnology．
Organic chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic(合成的)materials．However,
it is still difficult to manufacture any
