26、 Every day, people come into contact with thousands of chemicals. These chemicals are said to be harmless to human health. In fact, the chemicals are considered so safe that we wash with them. We put them on our bodies and even our faces. Other chemical products are used throughout our homes.
By the time you walk out of your front door, you have already been exposed to thousands of chemicals. On its own, each chemical seems harmless. But in combination with other chemicals, they may become deadly. That is the finding of a two - year study by a high - profile task force of scientists. The task force was told to investigate the cancer - causing possibility of chemical mixtures.
Linda Gulliver was one of the 174 scientists on the task force. Their job was to study the cancer - causing potential of 85 chemicals. All 85 are said to be common in the environment.
Ms. Gulliver explains that chemicals have the potential or ability to form dangerous mixtures. Even simple minerals can become dangerous when mixed with chemicals found in plastics or beauty products.
Working in groups, the scientists explored how different chemical mixtures could lead to cancer. Ms. Gulliver’s team looked at the ability of different combinations to support the increase of malignant human cells.
She says the current way to identify whether chemicals cause cancer is to test them one at a time. This method leads, she adds, to a long list of supposedly “safe” chemicals. She and her team say that approach needs to change.
“We definitely need certain research to find out what mixtures of chemicals would be more harmful than others; what groups of chemicals, when together, would produce more harmful effects. And at the moment, that is not known.”
An estimated one in five cancers has been linked to chemical exposure. It may turn out that the cancer -causing villain is not a single chemical at all.
【1】What effect may one single chemical have on us according to the text?
A.It may destroy our body. B.It may not cause danger to us.
C.It may let us suffer from cancer. D.It may let our body make a change.
【2】What does the underlined word “malignant” mean?
A.friendly B.specific
C.harmful D.kind
【3】According to the text, we can infer that the study
A.is just wasting time and money B.is still in need of great efforts
C.will cause panic in public D.will be resisted by the public
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.Mixtures of Safe Chemicals May Cause Cancer
B.Being Exposed to One Chemical Is Safe
C.How Mixtures of Safe Chemicals become dangerous
D.The Real Cause For Cancer
27、In the early times,the music industry was terrified of taping,thinking that customers would just copy music,or record from the radio.But that never really happened,at least not enough to cause any real hardship to anyone in the music business.
The same argument arose over technologies like miniDisc and recordable CDs.But the thing that terrified the music industry more than anything else was the arrival of services like Napster,which allowed people to share music over the Internet without costing them anything.The music industry was shocked: it saw people exchanging digital copies that didn’t degrade（降级）with each transfer,something that kept tapes from being a huge threat.
But it wasn't the Internet that killed the music industry.In fact,everything is still looking optimistic for many musicians.Taylor Swift has had a good year,and her latest album is likely to be making her very wealthy indeed.And that won’t change in all likelihood,not for Swift,and not for those who come after her.There is always going to be public demand for music.
However,the technology will simply destroy the record company.The reason is simple.Record companies are a man in the middle that simply doesn’t need to exist anymore.The same way we buy our flights directly did get our shopping online and have things delivered from Amazon instead of going to a local shop.We have always been willing to enjoy cost reductions at the expense of the middleman and the record companies are that kind of middleman.
What does the record industry offer?Well,surprisingly little these days.It used to be the case that record companies would go and find new talents.Of course this still happens,but more likely is that an artist will be discovered by the public through YouTube,or even from friends on Facebook or Twitter.Record companies also used to have an important role in producing the music.But countless artists are making their own way through software or any of the other amazing music development apps,without any help from the record companies.
【1】Why didn’t tape copying become a serious danger to the music industry?
A. It was hard to transfer.
B. It was strictly controlled.
C. It didn’t save much money.
D. It was replaced by miniDisc and recordable CDs.
【2】The example of Taylor Swift is fused to prove that______.
A. the demand for music is on the increase due to the Internet
B. the sales of albums are badly affected by the Internet
C. the Internet doesn’t have a destructive effect on the music industry
D. the musicians make a great fortune via the Internet
【3】The record companies will suffer most because________.
A. they are in the middle way and block the development of the music industry.
B. the record industry can offer nothing to us
C. people prefer to cut down the expenses at the cost of the record companies
D. the public pa more attention to Facebook or Twitter
28、Libraries have been bastions of knowledge for millennia, and little has changed during the ages in how they operate on a basic level. Only in the past few decades have computer databases made logging books and academic papers more efficient. From virtual AI voices that can help you choose your next novel, to physical machines that archive (归档), retrieve (检索), and log books of all kinds, technology is stealthily influencing our quiet reading zones.
Robots are steadily emerging in libraries around the world, too. Robots that can search through the shelves and scan them for misplaced books may soon be the future for every school and community learning facility. Books have, in recent years, been fitted with radio frequency tags, similar to those used in keycards and for unlocking cars. These can be scanned by autonomous machines, and flagged up to librarians if a book happens not to be found.
Reality technologies that superimpose (叠加) data onto the surroundings of a user are also fast becoming popular in education sectors and in libraries. Subjects such as history, science, and technology are all benefiting from such immersive visual “textbooks”, which may slowly come to replace existing physical paper books.
Apps can now show users what their area looked like in ancient times, as a user looks around, or highlight environmental damage in specific areas with data and analysis in real time as users walk.
The popular use of these programs, especially in university libraries, means that significant facility upgrades will be seen universally in the coming years.
【1】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 1?
A．AI is taking the place of librarians.
B．Computer databases help classify books.
C．Libraries can change a person’s cultural level.
D．Technology revolutions are taking place in libraries.
【2】What help librarians find the missing books?
A．Virtual AI voices.
B．Radio frequency tags.
C．Reality technologies.
D．The keycards.
【3】What can be inferred from the text?
A．Technology is changing the purpose of libraries.
B．Modern libraries improve reading ability quickly.
C．Visual textbooks will gradually be used in the school.
D．The environmental destruction can be predicted by Apps.
【4】What is the text?
A．A science article.
B．A news report.
C．A library brochure.
D．A job diary.
29、 Raised in a fatherless home, my father was extremely strict with us children. His attitude didn’t soften as I grew into adulthood and went to college. I had to ride the bus whenever I came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met me, even in severe weather. If I spoke unhappily, he’d say in his loudest father-voice, “That’s what your legs are for!”
The walk didn’t bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads. I also felt less than valued that my father didn’t seem concerned about my safety. But that feeling disappeared one spring evening.
It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. I longed for home. When the bus reached the stop, I stepped off and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home.
A row of hedge(树篱) edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just come into view when I saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge, moving toward the house. Upon closer observation, I realized it was the top of my father’s head. Then I knew, each time I’d come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely. I swallowed hard against the tears. He did care, after all.
On later visits, that spot of gray became my watchtower. I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery. Upon reaching home, I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair. “So! My son, it’s you!” he’d say, his face lengthening into pretended surprise. I replied, “Yes, Dad, it’s me. I’m home.”
【1】We can infer from the text that_______.
A.the author’s grandfather had a deep influence on his father
B.the author’s father knew that his son had found out his secret
C.the author’s attitude towards his father changed one spring evening

【2】The author’s father watched behind the hedge because ______.
A.he wanted to help his son build up courage
B.he wanted to surprise his son
C.he was embarrassed to meet his son on the way home
D.he wanted to make sure that his son was safe on his way home
【3】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.My Terrible Journey Home B.A Silly Mistake
C.My Father and I D.The Gray Spot Guiding Me Home
