¤ While the 2008 Olympics were the first to be broadcast entirely in HD, the 2012 Olympics are the first to broadcast in HD as well as 3D. Sean Taylor, a spokesperson for Panasonic – provider of some of the technologies – said it effectively, “Each Games, from a technology perspective, tries to have a first. London will be the first HD and 3D Games.” The games were first televised in Berlin in 1936 and played on big screens about the city. Then came the first games to enter households (strictly in London that is) in 1948, followed by the first internationally televised games during the 1960 Olympics in Rome. And ever since, that feeling of physically standing in the crowd and watching these mighty contestants has only gotten clearer, more defined. Now, they more literally than ever actually compete in your living room.
§ A paradox is presented as the London games celebrate both the Industrial Revolution (a.k.a. the birth of pollution) and a spirit of committed environmentalism; London will be the first to actively measure its own carbon footprint during these games, designing a stadium and accommodations that cut-back on negative emissions when at all possible. They are also shooting for a world record via the “Javelin,” designed specifically to keep as many exhaust pipes at bay as humanly possible.
【小題1】Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. The Industrial Revolution first happened in England.
B. 2012 London Olympics is the first to broadcast in HD.
C. People couldn’t see the Olympic Games on TV 80 years ago.
D. 2012 London Olympics is more environmentally friendly than before.
【小題2】What does the underlined word “paradox” probably mean in the text?
A.solid evidence | B.a(chǎn)dvanced thought |
C.perfect opinion | D.contradictory view |
A.a(chǎn) novel | B.a(chǎn) report | C.a(chǎn) diary | D.a(chǎn)n essay |
A.The History of Olympic Games. |
B.Two Firsts about 2012 London Olympics |
C.2012 London Olympics --- Eco-Conscious Games |
D.2008 Beijing Olympics and 2012 London Olympics |

Cutting global warming pollution would not only make the planet healthier, it would make people healthier too, new research suggests.
Cutting carbon dioxide emissions could save millions of lives, mostly by reducing preventable deaths from heart and lung diseases, according to studies released Wednesday and published in a special issue of The Lancet British medical journal.
“Relying on fossil fuels leads to unhealthy lifestyles, increasing our chances for getting sick and in some cases takes years from our lives,” US Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said in a telecast (電視廣播) briefing from her home state of Kansas. “As greenhouse gas emissions go down, so do deaths from cardiovascular (心血管的) and respiratory diseases (呼吸疾病). This is not a small effect.”
Instead of looking at the health ills caused by future global warming, as past studies have done, this research looks at the immediate benefits of doing something about the problem, said Linda Birnbaum, director of the US National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.
Some possible benefits seemed highly speculative (投機(jī)的,推測(cè)的), the researchers conceded (承認(rèn),給予), based on people driving less and walking and cycling more. Other proposals studied were more concrete and achievable, such as reducing cook stoves that burn dung (糞便), charcoal and other polluting fuels in the developing world.
And cutting carbon dioxide emissions also makes the air cleaner, reducing lung damage for millions of people, doctors said.
“Here are ways you can attack major health problems at the same time as dealing with climate change," said lead author Dr. Paul Wilkinson, an environmental epidemiologist at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
Wilkinson said the individual studies came up with numbers of premature deaths prevented or extra years of life added for certain places.
For example, switching to low-polluting cars in London and Delhi, India, would save 160 lost years of life in London and nearly 1,700 in Delhi for every million residents, one study found. But if people also drove less and walked or biked more, those extra saved years would soar (高聳,高漲) to more than 7,300 years in London and 12,500 years in Delhi because of less heart disease.
1.What does the passage mainly about?
A. How can people live longer.
B. Cutting carbon dioxide emissions saves life.
C. Global warming threatens people’s lives
D. People should stop relying on fossil fuels
2.The new research differs from past studies in that ________.
A. it focuses on the immediate benefits of cutting carbon dioxide emissions
B. it studies the bad effects arising from future global warming
C. it is believed by most people
D. it mainly targets at developing countries
3.According to Kathleen Sebelius ________.
A. sometimes it takes years to see the bad effects caused by consuming fossil fuels
B. without greenhouse gas emissions, people would not die of cardiovascular and respiratory diseases
C. the main reason why people get sick is that they rely on fossil fuels
D. death from cardiovascular and respiratory diseases are closely related to greenhouse gas emissions
4.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. London and Delhi have already benefited from reducing greenhouse gas emissions
B. switching to low-polluting cars would save 160 lives in London every year
C. walking and biking instead of driving will reduce the chance of heart disease
D. attacking health problems and dealing with climate change are contradictory

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。
71 But science may have just proved them right – because beautiful women are more likely to have daughters than their plainer counterparts, according to a study.
As parents tend to pass on genes that determine looks, this could result in handsome men becoming rather thin on the ground. 72 For example, Yasmin Le Bon is signed to the same modelling agency as daughter Amber, and Jerry Hall’s daughters Elizabeth and Georgia Jagger have both taken to the catwalk.
Dr Satoshi Kanazawa, of the London School of Economics, analysed data from a survey of 17,000 babies born in Britain in March 1958 and tracked them throughout their lives. 73 When they reached 45, they were asked about the gender of any children they had.
Those rated as attractive were equally likely to have a son or daughter as their first child – but the unattractive sorts were more likely to have a son. 74
Dr Kanazawa believes that parents tend to produce children who benefit from their own features. 75 So it pays for attractive women to have daughters. But couples blessed with strength and aggression rather than looks are better off having boys, as these characteristics are of more use to males.
A.Women are becoming more beautiful over the generations because attractive women have more children than plain ones. |
B.Single girls have always complained that good-looking men are difficult to find. |
C.Beauty is of more benefit to a woman than a man. |
D.At the age of seven, their attractiveness was rated by their teachers. |
E. Put another way, the beautiful women were more likely to have daughters.
F. And it may also explain why many models have daughters who follow in their fascinating footsteps.
G. Famously good-looking parents like Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are more likely to have girls than uglier couples.
