21、preciate looking at day after day, no matter what other people may say. Dont buy something that doesnt appeal to you just because it is trendy(流行的), because the artist is famous, or because you have been advised that the artwork will make a good investment. If you dont like the artwork at all, dont
22、buy it!Art Improves Your EnvironmentHave you ever noticed that all beautiful homes have art as an essential part of the decoration? Art lends life and color to otherwise plain and ordinary walls. A well thought-out art collection will help create a unique pattern in your home and make it more attrac
23、tive. For similar reasons, art often graces commercial buildings, such as reception rooms and the offices of top executives.Art Makes a StatementThe kind of art you surround yourself says much about your personality, tastes and values. Art truly is a mirror of the soul. Its an expression of who you
24、are. Be true to yourself, and choose art which is meaningful to you.Art Can Be an InvestmentArt can pay handsome returns, but this very rarely happens overnight. If youre hoping to make a fast buck, art may not be the right avenue for you. There are investors, of course, who like to put their money
25、in art. They do this for two main reasons: emotional as well as financial benefits.Art Enriches Your LifeAt a conference on health and aging, held in Australia, a professor from Melbournes RMIT University shared his findings that loveeven the love of an activity or a work of art contributes to healt
26、hier living and a longer lifespan.Art Makes an ImpressionWhen you need to give a gift which will make a lasting impression, a fine piece of artwork is hard to beat.

30、ow to choose artworks for your lifeC. what attitudes people have to art D. how to make a fortune from artworksBOne reaction to all the concern about tropical deforestation(砍伐森林) is a blank stare that asks the question, “Since I dont live there, what does it have to do with me?“The answer is that you
31、r way of life, wherever you live in the world, is tied to the tropics in many ways. If you live in a house, wash your hair, eat fruits and vegetables, drink soda, or drive a car, you can be certain that you are affected by the loss of tropical forests.Take rubber(橡胶) for example. For many uses, only
32、 natural rubber from trees will do. Synthetics are not good enough. Today over half the worlds commercial(商业的)rubber is produced in Malaysia and Indonesia, while the Amazons rubber industry produces much of the worlds four million tons. And rubber is an important material in making gloves, balloons,
33、 footwear and many sporting goods. Thousands of other tropical plants are valuable for their industrial use.Many scientists strongly believe that deforestation contributes to the greenhouse effector heating of the earth from increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. As we destroy forests, we lose
34、their ability to change carbon dioxide into oxygen.Carbon dioxide levels could double within the next half-century, warming the earth by as much as 4.5 degrees. The result? A partial melt-down of polar ice caps, raising sea levels as much as 24 feet; even 15 feet could threaten anyone living within
35、35 miles of the coast. Unbelievable? Maybe. But scientists warn that by the time we realize the severe effects of tropical deforestation, it will be 20 years too late.Can tropical deforestation affect our everyday lives? Now, you should have got the answer.45. The underlined word “synthetics“ probab

38、hemistry, geology, engineering, medicine or any other science?We all know that science plays an important role in the societies in which we live. Many people believe, however, that our progress depends on two different aspects of science. The first of these is the application of the machines, produc
39、ts and systems of applied knowledge that scientists and technologists develop. Through technology, science improves the structure of society and helps man to gain increasing control over his environment.The second aspect is the application by all members of society of the special methods of thought
40、and action that scientists use in their work.What are these special methods of thinking and acting? First of all, it seems that a successful scientist is full of curiosity-he wants to find out how and why the universe works. He usually directs his attention towards problems which he notices have no
41、satisfactory explanation, and his curiosity makes him look for underlying relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected. Moreover, he thinks he can improve the existing conditions and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves.He is a good observer, accurate, patient a
42、nd objective and applies logical thought to the observations he makes. He utilizes the facts he observes to the fullest extent. For example, trained observers obtain a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum(光谱).He
43、 is skeptical - he does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available-and therefore rejects authority as the sole basis for truth. Scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively to verify them.Furthermore, he is not only critical
44、 of the work of others, but also of his own, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation.Lastly, he is highly imaginative since he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex b
45、ut also frequently incomplete. Furthermore, he needs imagination if he wants to make hypotheses of how processes work and how events take place.These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts.48.Many people believe that science helps society to progr
46、ess through_.A. applied knowledge.B. more than one aspect.C. technology only.D. the use of machines.49. According to this passage, a successful scientist would not _.A. easily believe in unchecked statements. B. easily criticize others research work.C. always use his imagination in work. D. always u
47、se evidence from observation.50. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Application of technology. B. Progress in modern society.C. Scientists ways of thinking and acting.D. How to become a successful scientist.D根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。I met Rose, my new classmate, on the first day
48、 of college. To my surprise, she was already 87 years old. “Why are you in college at such a young age?“ I joked. “Im here to meet a rich man, get married, have two children, and then retire and travel.“ She answered. 51 Like young students, Rose was outgoing, kind and helpful. 52 Soon she became a
49、superstar in our college.At the end of the term, Rose was invited to give us a speech.
