26、Online debates, conducted on virtual platforms on the Internet, have somehow taken over in being beneficial, as compared to real life debates, for many reasons. For example, they favor more in-depth analysis—This one is especially for the main participants in the debate. They put forward their views from a place where they’re comfortably seated. 【1】 That is why online debaters can comprehend and think their competitors’ arguments while they write down their own points of view.
【2】 You don’t need to find a place or arrange for the audience to be seated. The experts and opinion formers don’t need to take an entire day out from their busy schedules to come to the venue and speak. 【3】
Online debates leave a lasting impression. The debates and the comments on them are archived (存档) by the debate website and anyone who wants to get back to the discussion can do so at any time. 【4】 This is because it can all be seen again on the website, including every word, every argument.
Also, if there are some developments on the issue, then a comment on the issue will tell all the participants to get back to the debate. 【5】 It’s like keeping the doors open to people who want to learn more and share.

27、 Some scientists say that animals in the ocean are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings.
The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.
Decibels (分贝)measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect. Some scientists have proposed setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales.
A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals. The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales' ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected.
Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds object to a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.
Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists suspect that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.
【1】According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea creatures?
A．The man-made noises.
B．The noises made by themselves.
C．The sound of earthquakes.
D．The sound of the ice-breaking,
【2】Which of the following is discussed in the third paragraph?
A．The ocean animal’s reaction to noises.
B．Different places with different types of noises.
C．The human ears sensitive to all types of noises.
D．The same noise on land measured differently in the ocean.
【3】As to the influence of noises on whales, which of the following statements is true?
A．They are deaf to noises.
B．Noises at a certain level may hurt them.
C．They are easily confused by noises.
D．Noises will limit their ability to reproduce.
【4】According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future?
A．They will try their best to decrease noise.
B．They will work hard to cut down noise pollution.
C．They will study the effect of different noises.
D．They will protect animals from harmful noises.
28、 If you had the opportunity to live forever, would you take it? Keeping your body alive indefinitely still seems like an impossibility, but some scientists think that digital technology may have the answer: creating a digital copy of your “self” and keeping it “alive” online long after your physical body has ceased to function.
In effect, the proposal is to clone a person electronically. Unlike the familiar physical clones — children that have identical features as their parents, but that are completely separate organisms with a separate life — your electronic clone would believe itself to be you. How might this be possible? The first step would be to map the brain.
How? One plan relies on the development of nanotechnology (纳米技术). Ray Kurzweil — one of the kings of artificial intelligence — predicts that within two or three decades we will have nano transmitters that can be put into the bloodstream. In the capillaries (毛细血管) of the brain, they would line up alongside the neurons and detect the details of the cerebral (大脑的) electronic activity. They would be able to send that information to a receiver inside a special helmet, so there would be no need for any wires sticking out of the head.
As a further step, Ray Kurzweil also imagines the nano transmitters being able to connect you to a world of virtual reality on the Internet, similar to what was shown in the film “Matrix”. With the nano transmitters in place, by thought alone, you could log on to the Internet and instead of the pictures coming up on your screen, they would play inside your mind. Rather than send your friends e-mails you would agree to meet up on some virtual tropical beach.
Some people believe that they can enjoy life after death. But why wait for that when you could have a shot of nanobots (纳米机器人) and upload your brain onto the Internet and live forever as a virtual surfer?
One snag: to exist on the net you will have to have your neural network parked on the computer of a web-hosting company. These companies want real money in real bank accounts every year or they will wipe your bit of the hard disc and sell the space to someone else. With your body six feet underground how will you pay?
【1】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Nano transmitters can help map the human brain.
B．Electronic clones recreate the original human body.
C．Electronic clones may put their physical selves into movies.
D．Nano transmitters use a helmet to detect the cerebral activities.
【2】What is the author’s attitude towards electronic clones?
A．Optimistic and careful.
B．Interested and unconvinced.
C．Excited and confused.
D．Assured and critical.
【3】The author asks “how will you pay?” at the end of the article, because ________.
A．you can’t pay to exist on the Internet if you are physically dead
B．you can’t pay for hard disc space if you don’t have a bank account
C．you can’t pay for a special service if too many people want to use it
D．you can’t pay the web-hosting company if you don’t have a neural network
29、Three Yale University professors agreed in a discussion that the automobile was what one of them called “Public Health Enemy No. 1 in this century”. Besides polluting the air and overcrowding the cities, cars are involved in more than half the disastrous accidents, and they contribute to heart disease “because we won’t walk anywhere any more,” said Richard Weeinaman, professor of medicine and public health.
Speaking of many of those man-made dangers of the automobile, Arthur W. Galson, professor of biology, said it was possible to make a kerosene-burning turbine car that would “lessen smog by a very large factor”. But he expressed doubt whether Americans were willing to give up moving about the countryside at 90 miles per hour in a large vehicle. “America seems wedded to the motor car—every family has to have at least two, and one has to be a convertible (敞篷汽车) with 300 horsepower,” professor Galson continued. “Is this the way of life that we choose because we treasure these values?”
For professor Sears, part of the blame lies with “a society that regards profit as a supreme value, under the illusion that anything that’s technically possible is, therefore, morally justified”. Professor Sears also called the country’s dependence on its modern automobiles “terrible economics” because of the large horsepower used simply “moving one individual to work”. But he admitted that Americans have painted themselves into a corner by allowing the national economy to become so dependent on the automobile industry.
“The solution,” Dr Weeinerman said, “is not finding a less dangerous fuel but a different system of inner city transportation. Because of the increasing use of cars, public transportation has been allowed to wither (衰弱) and grow worse, so that if you can’t walk to where you want to go, you have to have a car in most cities,” he declared. This, in turn, Dr Weeinerman contended, is responsible for the “arteriosclerosis (动脉硬化)” of public roads, for the pollution of the inner city and for the middle-class movement to the suburbs.
【1】The main idea of the passage is that_______.
A. Americans are used to traveling by cars
B. American public transportation is growing worse
C. American people’s health is threatened by automobiles
D. American car industry caused disastrous road accidents
【2】It can be inferred from the passage that .
A. Americans prefer cars to anything else
B. Americans are interested in fast automobiles
C. kerosene-burning engines cause more problems
D. kerosene-burning engines are green transportation
【3】 In Paragraph 3, Professor Sears implies that .
A. more attention should be paid to social effects
B. technology is always good for people
C. technology is a sword with two sides
D. US doesn’t care about the environment at all
【4】According to Dr Weeinerman, the best solution is .
A. to look for a fuel alternative
B. to walk to where people want to go
C. to control the production of the automobile
D. to improve public transportation
