Sound happens when something vibrates(振动 )or shakes. We can make something vibrate by hitting it. Try this experiment. Put your ruler on your desk so
30、that part of it sticks out(伸出 )over the edge . Put your hand on the part of the ruler that is on the desk. Now pull the part that is sticking out over the edge down, and then let it go.

When you shorten the ruler, it will vibrate more quickly. When something vibrates more quickly it produces a
32、 higher sound. If you lengthen the ruler, it will vibrate more slowly. When something vibrates more slowly, it produces a lower sound. 61. How does sound happen? A. When something vibrates. B.

34、ounds B Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends. My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and his family, but unco
35、mfortable with his children. As a child I loved him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard. On the
36、first day of my visit, we went out with one of my fathers friends for lunch at an outdoor caf. We talked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my sons funny facial expressions. Gone was my fathers critical (挑剔的 ) air and strict rules. Who was this person
37、I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before? The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at
38、 that moment. After so many years, Im at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, Im delighted with my new friend.

41、coughs and lead to more effective medicines, say UK researchers. Their study found that theobromine, found in cocoa, was nearly a third more effective in stopping coughs than codeine, which was considered the best cough medicine at present. The Imperial College London researchers who published their
42、 results online said the discovery could lead to more effective cough treatment. “While coughing is not necessarily harmful, it can have a major effect on the quality of life, and this discovery could be a huge step forward in treating this problem,” said Professor Peter Barnes. Ten healthy voluntee
43、rs were given theobromine, codeine or placebo, a pill that contains no medicine, during the experiment. Neither the volunteers nor the researchers knew who received which pill. The researchers then measured levels of capsaicin, which is used in research to cause coughing and as a sign of how well th
44、e medicine are stopping coughs. The team found that, when the volunteers were given theobromine, the capsaicin needed to produce a cough was around a third higher than in the placebo group. When they were given codeine they need only slightly higher levels of capsaicin to cause a cough compared with
45、 the placebo. The researchers said that theobromine worked by keeping down a nerve activity(神经活动 ), which cause coughing. They also found that unlike some standard cough treatments, theobromine caused no side effects such as sleepiness. 69. According to Professor Barnes, theobromine _. A. cannot be as effective as codeine
