Motion Sickness

Living in space looks like lots of fun.You can do certain things in space (like floating around,or pushing huge objects) that you cannot do on earth.But being in space can do things to you,too.If you stay too long in a gravity-free environment,your bones could become weak,and a small spaceship just might annoy you after a while,because space travel could make you seasick!

On July 4,1982,after seven days orbiting the earth,astronauts Thomas K.Mattingly and Henry W.Hartsfield returned home.Although not all of the experiments on board worked properly,the flight basically seemed to be a success except for one "little" thing: early in the flight,astronaut Hartsfield became "seasick".

Thomas Mattingly,who is also a jet pilot and is highly resistant to motion sickness on earth,did much better.Mattingly sailed through space with a steady stomach.But no one knows why Hartsfield felt uneasy and Mattingly did not.

So far it seems there is no reliable way to predict who will become motion sick in outer space and who will not.in all,at least four astronauts have suffered from space motion sickness.Russian and American scientists are working together to try to understand and solve the motion sickness.Space program officials worry that if so many highly-trained pilots get sick in space,what will happen when civilians start flying in the shuttle?

Motion sickness is a disagreeable feeling that comes from the pitching,rolling,swaying,or just the moving of the object you are riding in or on.Symptoms of motion sickness include: dizziness,headache,a sinking feeling in the stomach,and vomiting.

Why does motion make some people ill?

Doctors believe that motion sickness is caused by a disturbance in the inner ear.Our ears do more than give us hearing.A part of the ears gives us a sense of balance and helps make us aware of whether we are right side up or upside down.

If you know that you get carsick or seasick,what can you do?

Speak to your doctor.There are certain medicines available that can help stop that uneasy feeling.But many of them can also make you https://www.360docs.net/doc/0517308446.html,ually they work best taken before you begin feeling ill.

Some people also recommend water,ice cubes,mints,or plain toast.But these remedies do not always work for everyone.

Perhaps,since motion sickness is such a big problem in outer space,researchers may soon find a way to cure the astronauts - and those of us who stay on earth.

Plants in Desert

Only special plants can survive the terrible climate of a desert,for these are regions where the annual range of the soil temperature can be over 75℃.Furthermore,during the summer there are few clouds in the sky to protect plants from the sun's ray.Another problem is the fact that there are frequently strong winds which drive small,sharp particles of sand into the plants,tearing and damaging them.The most difficult problem for all forms of plant life,however,is the fact that the entire annual rainfall occurs during a few days or weeks in spring.

Grasses and flowers in desert survive from one year to the next by existing through the long,hot,dry season in the form of seeds.These seeds remain inactive unless the right amount of rain falls.If no rain falls,or if insufficient rain falls,they wait until the next year,or even still the

next.Another factor that helps these plants to survive is the fact that their life cycles are short.By the time that the water from the spring rains disappears —— just a few weeks after it falls ——such plants no longer need any.

The perennials have special features which enable them to survive as plants for several years.Thus,nearly all desert perennials have extensive root systems below ground and a small shoot system above ground.The large root network enables the plant to absorb as much water as possible in a short time.The small shoot system,on the other hand,considerably limits water loss by evaporation.

Another feature of many desert perennials is that after the rainy season they lose their leaves in preparation for the long,dry season,just as trees in wetter climates lose theirs in preparation for the winter.This reduces their water loss by evaporation during the dry season.Then,in next rainy season,they come fully alive once more,and grow new branches,leaves and flowers,just as the grasses and flowers in desert do.

A Pay Rise or Not?

"Unless I get a rise,I'll have a talk with the boss,Henry Manley，" George Strong said to himself.George liked his job and he liked the town he lived in,but his wife kept telling him that his pay was not enough to meet the needs of the family.That was why he was thinking of taking a job in Birmingham,a nearby city,about 50 miles away.He had been offered a job in a factory there,and the pay was far better.

George lived in Wyeford,a medium-sized town.He really liked the place and didn't like the idea of moving somewhere else,but if he took the job in Birmingham,he would have to move his family there.

Henry Manley was the manager of a small company manufacturing electric motors.The company was in deep trouble because,among other reasons,the Japanese were selling such things at very low prices.As a result,Manley had to cut his own prices and profits as well.Otherwise he would not get any orders at all.Even then,orders were still not coming in fast enough,so that there was no money for raises (加工资) for his workers Somehow,he had to struggle along and keep his best workers as well.He sighed.Just then the phone rang.

His secretary told him that George Strong wanted to see him as soon as possible.Manley sighed again.He could guess what it was about.George Strong was a very young engineer.The company had no future unless it could attract and keep men like him Manley rubbed his forehead (前额); his problems seemed endless.

Mad Scientist Stereotype Outdated

Do people still imagine a physicist as a bearded man in glasses or has the image of the mad scientist changed? The Institute of Physics set out to find out whether the stereotype of a physics…boffin'(科学家)still exists by conducting a survey on shoppers in London.The people were asked to identify the physicist from a photograph of a line-up of possible suspects.98 percent of those asked got it wrong.The majority of people picked a white male of around 60,wearing glasses and with a white beard.

While this stereotype may have been the image of all average physicist fifty years ago,the reality is now very different Since 1960 the number of young women entering physics has doubled and the average age of a physicist is now 31.

The stereotype of the absent-minded scientist has lasted a long time because the media and Hollywood help promote the image of men in white lab coats with glasses sitting by blackboardsfull of equations(等式)or working with fizzing(嘶嘶响)test tubes.These stereotypes are really damaging to society.Very good school children are put off studying science because they don't see people like themselves on television or in magazines doing science.They simply don't relate to the media's image of the mad scientist.

This is one reason why fewer young people are choosing to do science at university.If we want to encourage more young people to study science subjects,we need to change this image of the scientist and make science careers more attractive.But we must also develop children's interest in science.

Science Olympiads which are held in a different county every year.These events are all interesting for the young people who take part but they only involve a small proportion of students who are already interested in science.It seems that there is a long way to go before science becomes attractive as subjects like computer studies or fashion and design.

A Dolphin and an Astronomer

One day in 1963,a dolphin named Elvar and a famous astronomer,Carl Sagan,were playing a little game. The astronomer was visiting an institute which was looking into the way dolphins communicate with each other. Sagan was standing on the edge of one of the tanks where several of these friendly,highly intelligent creatures were kept. Elvar had just swum up alongside him and had turned on his back.

The dolphin wanted Sagan to scratch his stomach again,as the astronomer had done twice before. Elvar looked up at Sagan,waiting. Then,after a minute or so,the dolphin leapt up through the water and made a sound just like the word "more". The astonished astronomer went to the

director of the institute and told him about the incident. "Oh,yes. That's one of the words he knows," the director said,showing no surprise at all.

Dolphins have bigger brains in proportion to their body size than humans have,and it has been known for a long time that they can make a number of sounds. What is more,these sounds seem to have different functions,such as warning each other of danger. Sound travels much faster and much further in water than it does in air. That is why the parts of the brain that deal with sound are much better developed in dolphins than in humans. But can it be said that dolphins have a language,in the real sense of the word?

Scientists don't agree on this.

A language is not just a collection of sounds,or even words. A language has a structure and what we call a grammar. The structure and grammar of a language help to give it meaning. For example,the two questions 'Who loves Mary?' and 'Who does Mary love?' mean very different things. If you stop to think about it,you will see that this difference doesn't come from the words in the question but from the difference in structure. That is why the question Can dolphins speak? can't be answered until we find out if dolphins not only make sounds but also arrange them in a grammatical order which affects their meaning.

1.The astronomer was not interested in the way dolphins communicate with each other.

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

2.The dolphin leapt up into the air because Sagan was too near the water.

A.Right

B.Wrong

The Smog

For over a month,Indonesia was in crisis.Forest fires raged out of control as the country suffered its worst drought for 50 years.Smoke from the fires mixed with sunlight and hot dry air to form a cloud of smog.This pollution quickly spread and within days it was hanging over neighbouring countries including Malaysia,Singapore and Thailand.

When the smoke combined with pollution from factories and cars,it soon became poisonous(有毒的).Dangerous amounts of CO became trapped under the smog and pollution levels rose.People wheezed(喘息)and coughed as they left the house and their eyes watered immediately.

The smog made it impossible to see across streets and whole cities disappeared as grey

soot(烟灰)covered everything.In some areas,water was hosed(用胶管浇)from high-rise city buildings to try and break up the smog

Finally,heavy rains,which came came in November. Put out the fires and clear the air.But the environmental costs and health problems will remain Many people from South—Eastern Asian cities already suffer from breathing huge amounts of Car exhaust fumes(汽车排放的废气)and factory pollution Breathing problems could well increase and many non—sufferers may have difficulties for the first time.Wildlife has suffered too.In lowland forests,elephants,deer,and tigers have been driven out of their homes by smog.

But smog is not just an Asian problem. In fact.was world was first used in London in 1905 to describe the mixture of smoke and thick fog.Fog often hung over the capital.Sometimes the smog was SO thick and poisonous that people were killed by breathing problems or in accidents.

About 4,000 Londoners died within five days as a result of thick smog in 1952.

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 Ohio on Saturday.In Trumbull County, a tornado turned trees onto their sides.Some trees feel onto houses and Cars.Other trees fell into telephone and electrical wires as they went down.

Amanda Symcheck was having a party when the storm began."I knew something was wrong,"she 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 lot 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 hight 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 call be fierce.We were lucky this time.No one was killed."

The Threat to Kiribati

The people of Kiribati are afraid that one day in the not-too-distant future,their countrywill disappear from the face of the earth literally.Several times this year,the Pacific islandnation has been flooded by a sudden high tide.These tides,which swept across the island anddestroyed houses,came when there was neither wind nor rain."This never happened before,"say the older citizens of Kiribati.

What is causing these mysterious high tides? The answer may well be global warming.When fuels like oil and coal are being burned,pollutants (污染物) are released; thesepollutants trap heat in the earth's atmosphere.Warmer temperatures cause water to expand andalso create more water by melting glaciers (冰川) and polar (极地的) ice caps.

If the trend continues,scientists say,many countries will suffer,Bangladesh,for example,might lose one-fifth of its land.The coral (珊瑚) island nations of the Pacific,like Kiribati andthe Marshall Islands,however,would face an even worse fate -- they would be swallowed bythe sea.The loss of these coral islands would be everyone's loss.Coral formations are home tomore species than any other place on earth.

The people of these nations feel frustrated.The sea,on which their economies have alwaysbeen based,is suddenly threatening their existence.They don't have the money for expensivetechnological solutions like seawalls.And they have no control over the pollutants,which arebeing released mainly by activities in large industrialized countries.All they can do is to hopethat industrialized countries will take steps to reduce pollution.

Study Helps Predict Big Mediterranean Quake

Scientists have found evidence that an overlooked fault (断层) in the eastern Mediterranean is likely to produce an earthquake every 800 years as powerful as the one that destroyed Alandria in A 365.

Using radiocarbon techniques,simulations and computer models,the researchers recreated the ancient disaster in order to identify the responsible fault."We are saying there is probably a repeat time of 800 years for this kind of earthquake," said Ms.Beth Shaw,an earthquake scientist at the University of Cambridge,who led the study.Scientists study past earthquakes in order to determine the future possibility of similar large shocks.

Identifying the fault for the A 365 earthquake and tsunami is important for the tens of millions of people in the region,Ms.Shaw said.The fault close to the southwest coast of Crete last produced a big enough quake to generate a tsunami about 1300,which means the powerful one could come in the 100 years,she added in a telephone interview.

Ms.Shaw and her colleagues calculate the likely intervals by measuring the motion of either side of the fault to find how often such large earthquakes would have to occur to account for that level of motion,she said.Their computer model suggested an 8 magnitude quake on the fault would produce a tsunami that floods the coastal regions of Alandria and North Africa,the southern coast of Greece and Sicily all the way up the Adriati to Dubrovnik.This would be similar to the ancient quake in A 365 that caused widespread destruction in much of Greece and unleashed a tsunami that flooded Alandria and the Nile Delta,likely killing tens of thousands of people,she said.

职称英语等级考试试题-综合A6 第三篇Play Play is the principal business of childhood, and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy, every child needs opportunity and the right materials for play, and the main tools of play are toys. Their main function is to suggest, encourage and assist play. To succeed in this they must be good toys, which children will play with often, and will come back to again and again. Therefore it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child’s development. In recent years research on infant development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach, within the range of his inherited abilities, is largely determined in the first three years of his life. So a baby’s ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated. A baby who is encouraged and stimulated, talked to and shown things and played with, has the best chance of growing up successfully. In the next stage, from three to five years old, curiosity knows no bounds. Every type of suitable toy should be made available to the child, for trying out, experimenting and learning, for discovering his own particular ability. Bricks and jigsaws（七巧板）and construction toys; painting, scribbling(涂鸦) and making things; sand and water play; toys for imaginative and pretending play; the first social games for learning to play and get on with others. Bt the third stage of play development-from five to seven or eight years-the child is at school. But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning, at home or at school. It is easier to see which type of toys the chills most enjoys.

2020年职称英语考试综合类阅读判断练习及答案(10) Disease, Diagnosis, Treatment and Prevention Disease may be defined as the abnormal state in which part or all of the body is not properly adjusted or is not capable of carrying on all its required functions. There are marked variations in the extent of the disease and in its effect on the person. In order to treat a disease, the doctor obviously must first determine the nature of the illness–this is, make a diagnosis. A diagnosis is the conclusion drawn from a number of facts put together. The doctor must know the symptoms, which are the changes body function felt by the patient and the signs(also called objective symptoms) which the doctor himself can observe. Sometimes a characteristic group of signs(or symptoms)accompanied a given disease. Such a group is called a syndrome. Frequently certain laboratory tests are performed and the results evaluated by the physician in making his diagnosis. Although nurses do not diagnose, they play an extremely valuable role in this process by observing closely for signs, encouraging the patient to talk about himself and his symptoms, and then reporting this information to the doctor. Once the patience's disorder is known, the doctor prescribes a course of treatment, also referred to as therapy. Many measures in this course of treatment are carried out by the nurse under the physician's orders. In recent years physicians, nurses and other health workers have taken on increasing responsibilities in

2020年职称英语理工A概括大意真题及答案

2020年职称英语理工A概括大意真题及答案 Geothermal(地热)Energy 1.Since heat naturally moves from hotter regions to cooler ones, the heat from the earth's center flows outwards towards the surface. In this way, it transfers to the next layer of rock. If the temperature is high enough, some of this rock melts and forms magma(岩浆). The magma ascends in its turn towards the earth's surface. It often remains well below the earth's surface, creating vast areas of hot rock. In such regions, there are deep cracks, which allow rainwater to descend underground. Some of the heated rainwater travels back up to the earth's surface where it will appear as a hot spring. However, if this ascending hot water reaches a layer of impermeable(不可渗透的)rock, it remains trapped, forming a geothermal reservoir. If geothermal reservoirs are close enough to the surface, they can be reached by drilling wells. Hot water and steam shoot up the wells naturally, and can be used to produce electricity in geothermal power plants. 2.A few geothermal power plants depend on dry-stem reservoirs which produce steam but little or no water. In these cases, the steam is piped up directly to provide the power to spin a turbine generator. The first geothermal power plant, constructed at Lardarello in Italy, was of this type, and is still producing electricity today. 3.Most currently operating geothermal power plants are either "flash" steam plants or binary(双重的)plants. Flash plants produce mainly hot water ranging in temperature from 300° to 700°Fahrenheit. This water is passed through one or

Is it art or is it just vandalism (野蛮行为)? Well, it's still a crime, but graffiti (涂鸦) has changed since the days of spraying your name on a wall to mark your territory. Street art has become much more sophisticated since a 17-year-old called Demetrius started spraying his "tag" , TAKI 183, all over the New York underground in 1971, and hip - hop culture was born. Hip-hop is a mixture of art, music and dancing, poetry, language and fashion. It came from young inner-city people who fell left out by their richer classmates and who were desperate to express themselves in any way they could. An experiment to control the spread of graffiti in Rochdale, Creater Manchester, has been sosuccessful that plans have been made by local street artists for an international convention in June. "We're planning to get people together from different countries like France and Cermany for a week, " says Liam, one of the organizers. The scheme started in 2000, and has attracted people of all age groups and both sexes. " We all share a commen interest and get on really well with each other. " The first site to be chosen was a subway. " Before we began, people were afraid to use the subway. We had it cleaned up and now, with all the artists hanging out down there, people are using it again. People can relate to graffiti much more now. " By providing places to display their talents legally, there has been a fall in the amount of "tagging" on people's private property. Street artists Temper developed his drawing skills at a young age. In art classes at school he was really frustrated because the Art teacher didn't spend time with him. They thought he was already very good at art and so spend more time with other students. So, at 12 years old, Temper started painting with all these guys he'd hooked up with who were about 22 years old. He looked
