6.COPENHAGEN-The world is gathered in Copenhagen for the U.N.climate summit,but Denmark's bicycle-friendly capital has also given its name to a movement of cities trying to find a kinder way to travel to and from work.
Nearly 40 percent of Copenhagen's population cycle to work or school on ubiquitous(無處不在的) paved cycle paths.Many residents take to their bikes year-round,braving rain and snow through the winter in a city where the bicycles outnumber the people.
Amsterdam and Beijing too are known for their bicycles,but the Danish capital is where urban planners from around the world have been looking for ways to get their people out of cars and up onto bikes,an effort known as Copenhagenisation.
Klaus Bondam,Copenhagen's technical and environmental chief,calls himself a"mega cyclist"and says the bike's popularity stems partly from high taxes on cars which meant working-class Danes could not afford to drive in the 1930s and 1940s."Today you'll meet everybody on the bicycle lanes-women and men,rich and poor,old and young."Bondam said.
The local government has during the last three years invested more than 250 million crowns ($49.42 million) in bicycle lanes and to make the traffic safer for bicyclists.Today around a third of the population drive cars to work or study,another third take public transport,while 37 percent cycle--a figure the city aims to increase to 50 percent by 2015.
There are many benefits when citizens choose bicycles over cars:pollution and noise decline,public health improves,and more people on bikes or walking creates a sense of safety in the city.Fewer parked cars leaves more space for playgrounds,parks,shopping areas and other useful public places.
53.According to the first paragraph,Copenhagen is better known asB.
A.a(chǎn) city without cars                
B.a(chǎn) bicycle-friendly city
C.Denmark's capital                
D.the U.N.climate summit
54.We can learn from the second and the third paragraph,D.
A.there is no path for cars during rainy and snowy days
B.citizens are limited to have only one bike for each person
C.two-thirds of people in Copenhagen cycle to work or school
D.city planners try their best to encourage more citizens to ride bikes
55.Bikes are popular in Copenhagen partly becauseD.
A.the citizens are unable to afford to buy a car
B.the rich tend to keep fit by cycling to work
C.young people regard cycling a fashion to follow
D.high taxes were paid for cars in the 1930s and 1940s
56.We can learn from the passage thatC.
A.cars are forbidden to park in Copenhagen
B.more citizens tend to choose cars in Copenhagen
C.Copenhagen becomes a model for cities'traffic
D.living standards in Copenhagen are greatly declining.

14.LOS ANGELES (Reuters)---Onions make you cry,add flavor to food and are talked about a lot for their medicinal benefits.Now the vegetable has another use---powering up green energy.
A new system debuts on Friday that changes onion juice into electricity at Gills Onions,the largest fresh onion processor (加工機(jī)) in the United States.
The Oxnard,California-based company expects its new onion-fueled power to reduce its electric bill by﹩700,000 a year and cut its annual greenhouse gas releasing by up to 30,000 tons.The happy ending to this green energy tale,however,generated another question:how to get rid of onion waste."When we peel an onion,35 to 40 percent of the onion comes off before we have a usable onion.That's the top,tail and skins around the onion before you get to the meat,"said Steven Gill,co-owner of the 25-year-old company.
They used to take the waste to the fields for composting (堆肥) but that became a problem as it cost too much.Ten years ago,Gill started looking at technology for a solution."We ended up destroying the skins as they c ome out of the plant and extracting all the juice,which is very high in sugars,and bacteria love it,"Gill said.
In the new system,bacteria produce methane gas(沼氣) from the juice.The gas then goes to two 300 kilowatt fuel cells,creating enough power for 460 homes.The company expects to get 35 to 40 percent of its electricity from this new system.
The company invested﹩9.5 million in the project and will receive﹩2.7 million from Southern California Gas Co.,a regulated subsidiary of Sempra Energy,as part of a state program to encourage self-contained generation by businesses.In addition to cutting its electric bill,the company will save﹩400,000 in costs of taking the waste to the fields and expects pay-back in six years.
The onion grower now has a new goal:to be a zero-waste facility by 2013.
"We wanted to follow it all the way through and make the full circle,"Gill said.

B.US company finds a new way to reduce costs
C.Onions are widely used to produce electricity now

A.onion waste was a problem for most people
B.a(chǎn) big part of an onion was wasted
C.onions were mainly used as medicine
D.onions were not liked by most people

A.the skins of onions can be destroyed easily
B.the onion waste is taken to the fields
C.a(chǎn) lot of bacteria are put into onions

D.using onions to produce electricity will help reduce pollution

15.If you're a male and you're reading this,congratulations!You're a survivor.According to statistics,you're more than twice as likely to die of skin cancer than a woman,and nine times more likely to die of AIDS.Assuming you make it to the end of your natural term,about 78 years for men in Australia,you'll die on average five years before a woman.
There're many reasons for this--typically,men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke but perhaps more importantly,men don't go to the doctor.
"Men aren't seeing doctors as often as they should,"says Dr.Gullotta."This is particularly so
for the over-40s,when diseases tend to strike.According to a recent survey,95%of women aged between 15 and early 49s see a doctor once a year,compared to 70%of men in the same age group.
"A lot of men think they're unbeatable,"Gullotta says."They only come in when a friend drops dead on the golf course and they think,Geez,if it could happen to him …"
Then there's the ostrich(鴕鳥)approach."Some men are scared of what might be there and would rather not know,"says Dr.Ross Cartmill.
 
"Most men get their cars serviced more regularly than they service their bodies,"Cartmill says.He believes most diseases that commonly affect men could be addressed by preventive check-ups.
"Prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases.Besides,the final cost is far greater,it's called premature death."
 
64.Why does the author congratulate male readers at the beginning of the passage?C
A.They can live longer than they expected.
B.They are sure to enjoy a longer and happier life.
C.They have lived long enough to read this article.
D.They are more likely to survive serious diseases now.
65.Which of the author's statements is the most important reason that men die five years earlier on average than women according to the passage?B
A.Men drink and smoke much more than women.
B.Men don't seek medical care as often as women.
C.Men are more likely to suffer from deadly diseases.
D.Men aren't as cautious as women in face of danger.
66.Which of the following best completes the underlined sentence"Geez,if it could happen to him…"(in Para 4)?A
A.it could happen to me,too.
B.it would be a big misfortune.
C.I should avoid playing golf.
D.I should consider myself lucky.
67.What does Dr.Ross Cartmill mean by"the ostrich approach"(in Para 5)?D
A.A casual attitude towards one's health conditions.
B.A new treatment for certain psychological problems.
C.Refusal to get medical treatment for fear of the pain involved.
D.Unwillingness to find out about one's disease because of fear.
