If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the countrys economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there i
4、s not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a lot of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as
5、 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning.

But now a British company called EEV has come up with a computerized video system that can do it all automatically.They suggest that all number plates have a bar code(条形码) as well as the usual number. The bar codes a
13、re just stripes of lines like those you see on food packets but bigger. EEVs high speed video camera system can read a bar-coded number plate even if the car is doing over 100 miles per hour. The computer controlling the system could then use the information from the bar code to find out the name an

The inventors also suggest that the system should watch traffic to help catch stolen cars.The new electronic system could be watching everyone that passes the cameras!92.Many people find the idea that “bi

34、 ice crystalsDpreserving human bodies for long periods有史以来,人类都梦想着长生不老,能够战胜死亡和病魔。到目前为止,这也只能是一个梦想,虽然很强烈。很多人想知道能否找到一个方法来保存人体,最好的方法是什么。很长时间以来人们都知道冷冻可以使肉类和水果长时间保鲜;比如,在中国古代,人们将食物贮存在冰中保鲜。这种方法对于人体保存可能也很有用。事实上,很多人已经探索了这方面的可能性。然而,大多数生物只能在温暖的环境下生存,而被冷冻时就会死亡。原因是由于寒冷的冰晶的破坏作用:它们的体积不仅大于最初以水的形式存在于细胞当中的体积,而且会形成细胞的尖锐
35、的棱角。20 世纪 40 年代,B.J.Luyet 博士和一批英格兰科学家致力于研究解决如何冷冻而又不破坏细胞。既然冰晶是主要的造成危害的原因,Luyet 建议在冷冻之前先取出细胞中的部分或全部的水。Luyet 和他的助手对鸡的活细胞做出的研究发现,利用蛋白和甘油-一种主要由脂肪和油料制成透明粘稠的液体- 的混合物可将鸡细胞部分的水脱去。实验取得了一定的成功。这些鸡细胞被脱水、冷冻一段时间,然后小心地解冻。温度恢复正常时,几乎所有的细胞都复活了。从此,将整只动物以大大低于冰点的温度冷冻以后再解冻可能性大大提高,这种甘油方法或许使之成为可能。当这一设想得已实现的时候,离科学将患有不治之症的病人冷

38、g the 15 the century the word “reading” undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Only during the 19 the century did silent reading become a common practice.One should be careful, however, in thinking that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud disturbs others. Research into the historical de
39、velopment of silent reading shows that it became the usual way of reading for most adult reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.The 19 the century saw a gradual increase in literacy (读写能力) and thus in the number of readers. 94.As readers increased, so the number of li
40、steners dropped, and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the popularity of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, trains and offices, where reading aloud would disturb other readers in a
41、 way.Towards the end of the century there was still heated argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in education. Howe
42、ver, whatever its advantages, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and magazines for a specialized readership on the other.By the end of the 19 the century, students were being advised to form their own opinions on books and
43、 to use skills in reading them which were unsuitable for the oral reader. 95.The social, cultural, and technological changes in the 19 the century had greatly changed what the word “reading” implied.36. Why was reading aloud common before the nineteenth century? D.WORD 完美格式 . .专业知识编辑整理. A . Silent r
