5 startling statistics about rhinos

1. Rhinos have been on Earth for around 50 million years. In that time, species in the rhino family have roamed across not only Africa and Asia but also Europe and North America. There was even a rhino species we dubbed the Giant Unicorn, which grew up to 20 feet in length and had a horn that reached 7 feet long!

2. Some 500,000 rhinos could be found across Asia and Africa just one century ago. But since the beginning of the 20th century, their numbers have fallen precipitously. There were just 70,000 by 1970 and a mere 29,000 in the wild today.

3. The price for rhino horn is extremely high — so high, in fact, that Save the Rhino asks journalists not to publicize it. Although the price is widely reported anyway, many conservationists worry this publicity can encourage more criminals to enter the rhino-horn trade and stimulate more consumer demand. And regardless of the specific price for a kilogram of rhino horn, it's worth noting that all this fuss is about keratin — a product that's the exact same material as horse hooves, cockatoo beaks, and even our hair and fingernails. Yes, you can get the basically the same thing for free every time you trim your nails or get a hair cut.

Why the high price? Primarily rhino horn is used in traditional Chinese medicine, however there's no scientific proof that rhino horn has any medicinal value. According to PBS:

"Overall there isn’t much evidence to support the plethora of claims about the healing properties of the horns. In 1990, researchers at Chinese University in Hong Kong found that large doses of rhino horn extract could slightly lower fever in rats (as could extracts from Saiga antelope and water buffalo horn), but the concentration of horn given by a traditional Chinese medicine specialist are many, many times lower than used in those experiments. In short, says Amin, you’d do just as well chewing on your fingernails."

4. If poaching levels continue as they are going, wild rhinos could disappear within the next 20 years. This would be not only a devastating blow to the world as a whole, but also to many national economies, which could continue to make money from rhinos through eco-tourism and photo safaris. Rhinos, like so many big fauna, are worth far more alive than dead over the course of their long lifetimes, both through the ecological benefits they provide to their habitats as well as through the thousands upon thousands of dollars tourists are willing to pay to see a rhino grazing peacefully in the wild.

5. South Africa is home to 74 percent of the continent's remaining rhino population, according to Stop Rhino Poaching, yet more than 6,100 rhinos have been poached in that country in the last nine years. "This poaching is by no means isolated to South Africa; rhino poaching is surging across the entire African continent, and is a constant threat to the smaller rhino populations in Asia," according to Save the Rhino. "Other rhino states do not regularly publish poaching statistics, however updates are available in news reports and press releases."

21. According to paragraph 1, what can we infer about the Giant Unicorn ?

    A. It belonged to rhino species, whose size was extremely large.

    B. It was a kind of species similar to rhino species.

    C. It belonged to rhino species, whose size was the largest among rhino species.

    D. It was a common rhino species.

22. From what time have the numbers of rhinos dropped dramatically ?

   A. Not mentioned

   B. One century ago

   C. From the start of the 20th century

   D. At the end of the 20th century

23. What is the passage mainly about ?

   A. Some figures about rhinos.

   B. The dangers rhinos were faced with

   C. The ways to protect rhinos

   D. The alarming figures about rhinos and their current situation

【答案与解析】

文章标题是《关于犀牛的五组令人震惊的数据惊》。本篇展现了关于犀牛的五组令人震惊的数据,通过这些数据,描述了犀牛的现状以及呼吁人们采取行动保护犀牛。

21. A  事实细节题,本文第一段描述了被称作独角兽的一种犀牛,介绍了犀牛的概况。文章通过对犀牛的细节描写,得知此题答案选A。“犀牛已经在地球上生活了大约5000万年。在那个时候,犀牛科的物种不仅漫游于非洲和亚洲,也漫游于欧洲和北美。甚至还有一种犀牛,我们称之为巨型独角兽,它长到20英尺长,有一个长达7英尺的角!”

22. C 事实细节题,从什么时候开始犀牛数量急剧下降?定位到文章第二段第二句话,“But since the beginning of the 20th century, their numbers have fallen precipitously.”但自20世纪初以来,它们的数量急剧下降。根据这个信息可得知此题选C。

23. D 主旨大意题,首先通过快速浏览后再认真阅读文章,即可得知此题选D。关于犀牛及其现状的令人担忧的数字。

【文章大意】

1. 犀牛已经在地球上生活了大约5000万年。在那个时候,犀牛科的物种不仅漫游于非洲和亚洲,也漫游于欧洲和北美。甚至还有一种犀牛,我们称之为巨型独角兽,它长到20英尺长,有一个长达7英尺的角!

2. 仅仅一个世纪前,亚洲和非洲就可以发现大约50万头犀牛。但自20世纪初以来,它们的数量急剧下降。到1970年只有7万只,而今天野外只有2.9万只。

3. 犀牛角的价格高昂,而事实上,如此之高以至于为拯救犀牛要求记者不要宣传其价格。尽管价格已被广泛报道,但许多环保人士担心,这种宣传可能会鼓励更多的犯罪分子进入犀牛角贸易,并刺激更多的消费者需求。不管一公斤犀牛角的具体价格如何,值得注意的是,所有这些小题大做都是关于角蛋白——是一种与马蹄、凤头鹦鹉嘴甚至我们的头发和指甲材料完全相同的产品。是的,每次修剪指甲或理发,你都可以免费得到基本相同的东西。

为什么价格这么高?犀角主要用于中医,但没有科学证据证明犀角具有任何药用价值。

根据PBS:“总的来说,没有太多证据支持关于角的愈合特性的说法。1990,香港中国大学的研究人员发现,大剂量犀牛角提取物能降低大鼠发烧(如赛加羚羊和水牛角提取物),但中药专家给予的角浓度比实验中使用的低很多倍。阿民说到:简言之,你最好咀嚼你的指甲。”

4. 如果继续进行偷猎,野生犀牛可能在未来20年内消失。这不仅是对整个世界的毁灭性打击,而且对许多国家经济体也是如此,它们可以继续通过生态旅游和摄影旅行从犀牛身上赚钱。像许多大型动物一样,犀牛在其漫长的一生中,通过它们为栖息地提供的生态效益,也通过成千上万的美元的旅游消费,游客们都愿意花钱去看犀牛在野外和平地放牧。

5. 据Stop Rhino Poaching统计,南非是非洲大陆剩余犀牛数量的74%,但在过去的9年里,南非已经有6100多头犀牛被偷猎。“这种偷猎决不是孤立于南非;根据拯救犀牛组织的说法,犀牛偷猎正在整个非洲大陆蔓延,并对亚洲较小的犀牛种群构成持续的威胁。其他犀牛州不定期公布偷猎统计数据,无论如何,新闻报道和新闻稿中都在不断地更新信息。”

Julian Treasure cares very deeply for your ears. That’s why he’s given TED talks like “The 4 ways sound affects us” and “Why architects need to use their ears.” Treasure is on a mission to make policymakers, engineers, architects and, well,  everyone think more about what they hear around them — because the way things sound have a tangible, measurable effect on how we feel, how we heal, how we work and how we live.

To this end, Treasure’s The Sound Agency has teamed up with Biamp Systems to create a white paper called “Building in Sound,” a look at the data linking sound and well-being.

“This paper is based on exhaustive review of academic papers, and reports from national governments and multinational bodies, going back some 40 years,” it begins. “The research examines the causes and impacts of sound on our health, recovery from illness or surgery, our ability to absorb information and learn, our productivity, and general sense of well-being.”

Read the paper in full, or check out some of the most fascinating facts below.

The estimated cost of noise pollution is $30.8 billion a year — and that’s just in Europe.  The World Health Organization Europe’s 2011 report, “Burden of disease from environmental noise,” analyzes the relationship between environmental noise and health. In this study, they calculate the financial cost of lost work days, health care treatment, impaired learning and decreased productivity due to noise. The total they came up with is staggering, considering they’re looking at just one continent.

Each year, noise pollution takes a day off the life of every adult and child in Europe. This same study also looked at the cost of noise pollution in terms of lost life expectancy. Shockingly, they determined that every 365 days, one million years are taken off European’s collective life expectancy — averaging to a day per person.

If you can hear someone talking while you’re reading or writing, your productivity dips by up to 66%.  Open floor-plan offices distract workers without them even noticing it. In a classic study published in the British Journal of Psychology in 1998, researchers found that employers were highly distracted when they could hear conversation around them, and less able to perform their duties. Another classic study found that noise in the office also correlated to increased stress hormone levels and a lower willingness to engage with others. According to Sound Agency case study, when sound masking technology was used in an office, there was a 46% improvement in employees’ ability to concentrate and their short term memory accuracy increased 10 percent.

The average noise level in many classrooms is not just associated with impaired learning — but with permanent hearing loss. Noise can deeply affect learning too. The WHO recommends a noise level in classrooms akin to that you’d find in a library — 35 decibels. However, a study in Germany found that the actual average noise volume in classrooms is 65 decibels — a level associated with permanent hearing loss. As Treasure outlines in this talk, for a student sitting in the fourth row of a traditional classroom, speech intelligibility is just 50 percent — meaning that they only hear half of what their teacher says.

A 20 decibel increase in aircraft noise is enough to delay a student’s reading level by up to 8 months. A study published in the American Journal of Epidemiology in 2006 looked at 2000 students between the ages of 9 and 10 in schools in The Netherlands, Spain and the U.K. — many in schools near airports. They found that aircraft noise was associated with impaired reading comprehension.

50% of teachers have experienced damage to their voice from talking over classroom noise. A study of teachers published in the Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing Research in 2004, noted another side-effect of noise pollution in classrooms — 50% of teachers have suffered irreversible damage to their voices. Why? Because as the environment gets noisier, we speak more loudly.

The average noise level in some hospital wards not only impedes healing — but could legally require hearing protection. The WHO recommends noise levels in hospital wards to stay around 35 decibels. But a study in the US found the average noise level in hospital wards is actually closer to 95 decibels — just 10 decibels beyond the noise level at which U.S. federal law requires ear protection for prolonged exposure. Sleep is crucial for patient recovery, and yet with the constant beeps, tones and shuffling, the body feels that it is under threat. Not to mention that staff errors increase the greater the level of distracting noise.

3% of cardiac arrest cases in Germany have been explicitly linked to traffic noise. Treasure found this alarming fact in a 2009 press release from the Environmental Protection UK.

Noise pollution may possibly even contribute to crime. When the city of Lancaster, California, installed a sound system featuring birdsong along a half-mile stretch of a main road, there was a 15 percent reduction in reported crime, according to an article in The Wall Street Journal. Similarly, when the London Underground started playing classical music at a crime-heavy station, robberies fell by 33% while assaults on staff dropped 25%, says The Independent.

24. According to paragraph 1, what’s the mission of Julian Treasure ?

   A. To make everyone better understand the sound around them and its effects on human beings

   B. To publicize the benefits from the sound around us

   C. Not mentioned

   D. To encourage people to get involved in more sound

25. What does the underlined word “ staggering’’ probably mean ?

   A. Disappointing

   B. Shocking

   C. Pleasing 

D. Exciting

26. Among the nine ways that sound affects us, which one is related to heart disease?

   A. The first way

   B. The third way

   C. The eighth way

   D. The ninth way

27. What’s the passage mainly about ?

   A. The advice on how to deal with noise pollution

   B. The ways to protect our environment

   C. The opinions on how to reduce noise pollution

   D. 9 ways that sound affects our health, well-being and productivity

【答案与解析】

本文阐述了噪音污染通过九种途径对人们的身体健康产生负面的影响。

24. A 事实细节题,通过定位到文章第一段“Treasure is on a mission to make policymakers, engineers, architects and, well, everyone think more about what they hear around them — because the way things sound have a tangible, measurable effect on how we feel, how we heal, how we work and how we live.”,得知此题选A。朱利安.特雷热的使命是“让决策者、工程师、建筑师以及每一个人都更多地思考他们周围的声音,因为事物的声音方式对我们的感觉、对我们治愈的方式、对我们如何工作和我们如何生活都有着有形的、可测量的影响。”

25. B 猜测词义题,定位到“The total they came up with is staggering, considering they’re looking at just one continent.”,结合上下文语境,得知此题选B,Shocking的意思就是 staggering,惊人的。

26. C 事实细节题,根据题干:在声音影响我们的九种方式中,哪一种与心脏病有关?定位到文章倒数第二段“3% of cardiac arrest cases in Germany have been explicitly linked to traffic noise. Treasure found this alarming fact in a 2009 press release from the Environmental Protection UK.”,其中的cardiac arrest为心脏停搏,是本题要点。

27. D 主旨大意题,通过快速浏览,再认真阅读此篇文章得知此题选D,9种声音影响我们的健康、幸福和工作效率。

【文章大意】

朱利安·特雷热非常关心人们的耳朵。这就是他给泰德讲了“声音影响我们的四种方式”和“为什么建筑师需要用他们的耳朵”的原因。特雷热的使命是让决策者、工程师、建筑师以及每一个人都更多地思考他们周围的声音,因为事物的声音方式对我们的感觉、对我们治愈的方式、对我们如何工作和我们如何生活都有着有形的、可测量的影响。

为此,特雷热的声音机构与Biamp系统合作,创建了一个名为“在声音中构建”的白皮书,查看声音与幸福之间的数据链接。

“这篇论文是基于对学术论文的详尽回顾以及国家政府和跨国机构的报告,追溯到大约40年前,”文章开始说。“这项研究调查了声音对我们健康的原因和影响,从疾病或手术中恢复,我们吸收信息和学习的能力,我们的生产力,以及普遍的幸福感。”

阅读全文,或查看下面一些最引人入胜的事实。

噪音污染的估计成本是每年308亿美元,这只是在欧洲而已。世界卫生组织欧洲2011年的报告“环境噪音带来的疾病负担”分析了环境噪音与健康之间的关系。在这项研究中,他们计算了因噪音导致的工作日损失、医疗保健、学习障碍和生产力下降的财务成本。请考虑他们只是关注一个大陆,而得出的总数就令人震惊。

每年,噪音污染都会使欧洲每个成人和儿童的生活都有一天的不上班、不上学。这项研究还以预期寿命的损失来衡量噪音污染的成本。令人震惊的是:他们确定在100万年内,每365天就要从欧洲人的集体预期寿命中扣除——平均每人一天。

如果你在读或写的时候听到有人在说话,你的工作效率会下降66%。开放式平面办公室会分散员工的注意力,而他们自己甚至不会注意到。在1998年发表在《英国心理学杂志》上的一项经典研究中,研究人员发现,当雇主能够听到他们周围的谈话时,他们会高度分心,而不能履行他们的职责。另一项经典研究发现,办公室里的噪音也与压力荷尔蒙水平的增加和与他人交往的意愿的降低有关。根据Sound Agency的案例研究,当办公室使用声音屏蔽技术时,员工集中注意力的能力提高了46%,短期记忆的准确性提高了10%。

许多教室的平均噪音水平不仅与学习障碍有关,还与永久性听力损失有关。噪音也会对学习产生深远影响。世界卫生组织建议教室的噪音水平与图书馆的噪音水平相当——35分贝。然而,德国的一项研究发现,教室里的实际平均噪音是65分贝——这一水平与永久性听力损失有关。正如本次谈话中的特雷热所描述的,对于一个坐在传统教室第四排的学生来说,语言的清晰度只有50%——这意味着他们只能听到老师所说的一半。

飞机噪音增加20分贝,就足以使学生的阅读水平延迟8个月。2006年发表在《美国流行病学杂志》上的一项研究对荷兰、西班牙和英国的2000名9至10岁的学生进行了调查,其中很多人在机场附近的学校上学。他们发现飞机噪音与阅读理解障碍有关。

50%的教师声音由于课堂噪音而受到损害。2004年发表在《言语、语言和听力研究杂志》上的一项针对教师的研究指出,教室噪音污染的另一个副作用——50%的教师的声音受到不可逆转的损害。为什么?因为随着环境越来越嘈杂,我们说话的声音越来越大。

一些医院病房的平均噪音水平不仅妨碍愈合,而且可能需要听力保护。世卫组织建议医院病房的噪音水平保持在35分贝左右。但美国的一项研究发现,医院病房的平均噪音水平实际上接近95分贝——仅比美国联邦法律要求长时间接触耳朵保护的噪音水平高出10分贝。睡眠对患者的康复至关重要,但随着不断的哔哔声、音调和脚步声,身体会感到受到威胁。更不用说,工作人员的失误会增加更大程度的干扰噪音。

德国有3%的心脏骤停病例与交通噪音有明确联系。特雷热在2009年英国环保组织的新闻发布会上发现了这个令人担忧的事实。

噪音污染甚至可能导致犯罪。据《华尔街日报》的一篇文章称,当加利福尼亚州兰开斯特市在一条主干道半英里长的地方安装了一个以鸟鸣为特色的音响系统时,报告的犯罪率降低了15%。《独立报》称,同样地,当伦敦地铁在犯罪率很高的车站开始播放古典音乐时,抢劫案减少了33%,而对员工的袭击减少了25%。

In the food industry right now there are a lot of words being thrown around like GMO, organic, natural, fresh or local. But do all of these words really mean better for you? I recently saw a green Diet Coke can and above it the word “organic” in italicized cursive letters. Is this supposed to mean it is better for you than regular Diet Coke? Does it mean that the ingredients in it are less likely to be processed and possibly affect your health? Probably not.

The proof lies in the pudding when it comes to foods that are good for your health. As a Registered Dietitian, I encourage my patients to focus on “whole foods” that are nutrient dense rather than “processed foods” that are energy dense. What is the difference between the two? Well, nutrient dense foods provide nutrients for your body such as fiber, vitamins and minerals with low added sugar and fat, while energy dense foods, or high calorie foods, provide many calories with little value to your body.

A whole food would be considered, ideally, as a food with only one ingredient i.e. corn on the cob, apple, chicken or a cucumber. These foods will assist you in reducing your cholesterol, regulating your blood sugars and reducing risk for diabetes while also assisting you in maintaining your weight. A processed food is any food with more than one ingredient, and food companies typically add additional sugars, preservatives, dyes and “bad” fats such as saturated and trans fats. A perfect example would be a baked potato (one ingredient) compared to instant mashed potatoes. The ingredients list on the Hungry Jack instant mashed potatoes include: POTATO FLAKES (SODIUM BISULFITE, BHA AND CITRIC ACID ADDED TO PROTECT COLOR AND FLAVOR), CONTAINS 2% OR LESS OF: MONOGLYCERIDES, PARTIALLY HYDROGENATED COTTONSEED OIL, NATURAL FLAVOR, SODIUM ACID PYROPHOSPHATE, BUTTEROIL.  (Note: hydrogenated oil is trans fat, which is directly linked to heart disease and plaque build up.) It makes you wonder, with all of these added ingredients and chemicals and altering of oils, is this a real food?

Here's how to incorporate whole foods into your daily routine:

• Buy seasonal food directly from a local farmer at a farmer's market or through a CSA.

• Shop around the perimeter of the grocery store — that’s where all the whole foods are! Avoid the aisles as that is where the processed foods are located. Make a grocery list that takes you around the outside of the store — fruits and vegetables, low-fat meat and low-fat dairy — and includes just 1-2 aisles per trip.

See below for foods to look for at the grocery store, and foods to avoid:

Fruits and Vegetables

Whole foods: fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, frozen vegetables, frozen fruits, unsalted nuts

Processed foods to avoid: fruit or vegetable juices, fruits canned in heavy syrup, fruit snacks/fruit roll ups, veggie or potato chips, salted/seasoned nuts

Meats

Whole foods: fresh lean meats, fresh fish/shellfish, eggs

Processed foods to avoid: bacon, sausage, chicken fingers, fish sticks, hot dogs, deli meats, potted meats and spam

Dairy

Whole foods: low-fat milk (skim or 1%), plain yogurt, low-fat cheese and cottage cheese

Processed foods to avoid: ice cream bars, processed cheese such as Velveeta, sweetened yogurt/parfaits

• Last but not least, garden! Try growing your own fruits, vegetables and herbs at home. Check out your local cooperative extension for landscape, garden and indoor plant information and find a Master Gardener in your area.

Happy gardening to my fellow gardeners out there and wishes for a healthy summer!

28. How does the writer feel about the words like GMO, organic, natural, fresh or local ?

A. Not mentioned

B. Trustworthy

C. Doubtful

D. Common

29. According to paragraph 2, which kind of foods can provide more value for you, whole foods or processed foods?

A. whole foods

B. processed foods

C. Neither of them

D. Both of them

30. What effect does the whole foods have on your body ?

A. Increasing your cholesterol

B. Affecting your blood sugars negatively

C. Increasing risk for diabetes

D. Keeping your weight stable

31. What does the underlined word “incorporate” mean ?

A. Bring

B. Take 

C. Break

D. Include

【答案与解析】

本篇展现了食品行业出现的各种标签不同的食品,通过对比和举例,本文作者建议广大消费者购买营养密集的食物,而不是能量密集的事物,并给出了筛选出营养密集食物的一些方法。

28. C  推断题,作者对诸如gmo、organic、natural、fresh或local等词有何看法?通过认真阅读本文第一段的内容,得知此题选C,作者持怀疑态度。

29. A  事实细节题,问题:根据第2段,哪种食物能为你、全食品或加工食品提供更大的价值?通过认真阅读第二段的内容,得知此题选A,天然食品对健康更有价值。

30. D  事实细节题,通过定位到文章第三段“These foods will assist you in reducing your cholesterol, regulating your blood sugars and reducing risk for diabetes while also assisting you in maintaining your weight.”这些食物将帮助你降低胆固醇,调节血糖,降低患糖尿病的风险,同时帮助你保持体重。因此,此题选D。

31. D  猜测词义题,问题:带下划线的单词“incorporate”是什么意思?定位到原句“Here's how to incorporate whole foods into your daily routine”,通过上下文语境,得知此题选D。

【文章大意】

在食品工业中,现在有很多词被抛到一边,比如转基因、有机、天然、新鲜或当地。但这些话对你来说真的意味着更好吗?我最近看到一种绿色的健怡可乐罐,上面用斜体草书写着“有机”一词。这是否意味着它比普通的健怡可乐更适合你?这是否意味着其中的成分不太可能被加工,也可能影响你的健康?大概不会。

证据就是布丁食物对健康有益。作为一名注册营养师,我鼓励我的患者关注营养密集的“全食品”,而不是能量密集的“加工食品”。这两者有什么区别?嗯,营养密集的食物为你的身体提供营养素,如纤维、维生素和矿物质,低添加的糖和脂肪,而能量密集的食物,或高热量的食物,提供许多卡路里,对你的身体没有什么价值。

理想情况下,整个食物被认为是只有一种成分的食物,即玉米棒子、苹果、鸡肉或黄瓜。这些食物将帮助你降低胆固醇,调节血糖,降低患糖尿病的风险,同时帮助你保持体重。加工食品是指任何含有一种以上成分的食品,食品公司通常会添加额外的糖、防腐剂、染料和“坏”脂肪,如饱和脂肪和反式脂肪。与速溶土豆泥相比,烤土豆(一种配料)就是一个很好的例子。饥饿杰克速溶土豆泥上的配料表包括:土豆片(亚硫酸氢钠、BHA和柠檬酸添加以保护颜色和风味),含有2%或更少的:

单甘油酯,部分氢化棉籽油,天然香料,焦磷酸钠,黄油。(注:氢化油是反式脂肪,与心脏病和血小板的形成直接相关。)这让你怀疑,有了所有这些添加的成分和化学物质以及油的改变,这是真正的食物吗?

以下是如何将全食融入日常生活的方法:

•直接从农贸市场的当地农民或通过CSA购买季节性食品。

•在杂货店购物----在那里购买所有的食物!要避免顺路购买,因为顺路放置的都是加工食品。要先列一份杂货清单,转一转水果和蔬菜摊位,低脂肉类和低脂奶制品一般只放置在1-2个通道里。

食品杂货店要找的食物和要避免的食物如下:

水果蔬菜类

天然食品:新鲜水果、新鲜蔬菜、冷冻蔬菜、冷冻水果、无盐坚果

应避免的加工食品:果蔬汁、水果罐头、蔬菜罐头、水果类小食品/水果卷、蔬菜片或薯片、调味坚果

肉蛋类

天然食品:新鲜瘦肉、新鲜鱼类、贝类、鸡蛋

应避免的加工食品:培根、香肠、鸡手指、鱼棒、热狗、熟食肉、罐装肉、午餐肉

奶制品

天然食品:低脂牛奶(脱脂或1%),普通酸奶,低脂奶酪、干酪。

应避免的加工食品:冰淇淋棒、加工奶酪(如维维埃塔奶酪)、甜酸奶、冰糕

•把一半的盘子装满水果和蔬菜!查看choosemyplate.gov(这里指:政府发布的健康饮食食谱)了解健康饮食的食谱想法和建议。

•最后一点,也是最重要的一点,花园!尝试在家里种植自己的水果、蔬菜和草药。查看您当地的景观、花园和室内植物信息合作扩展,并在您所在的地区找到一位专业的园丁。

祝我的园丁们园艺愉快,祝你们夏天健康!

We've all seen movies in which a character has a retinal scan to prove his or her identity before walking into a top-secret installation. That's an example of a biometric system. In general, biometrics is a collection of measures of human physiology and behavior. A biometric system could scan a person's fingerprint or analyze the way he or she types on a keyboard. The purpose of most biometric systems is to authenticate a person's claimed identity.

Biometrics tend to be more convenient than other methods of identity authentication. You might forget your ID at home when you head out the door, but you'll still be able to use biometric devices. Imagine verifying your identity while at the store by swiping your finger across a sensor.

But along with convenience and security comes a concern for privacy. For biometrics to work, there needs to be a database containing the relevant information for each individual authorized by the system. For example, at that top-secret installation, every employee's biometric signature would have to be recorded so that the scanners could verify each person's identity.This might not present much of a problem on its own. If the only data the system stores relates to the actual biometric measurements, privacy violations are at a minimum. But by their very nature, biometric systems collect more information than just the users' fingerprints, retinal patterns or other biometric data. At a basic level, most systems will record when and where a person is at the time of a scan.

 You might think of fingerprint or retinal scanners when you hear the word biometrics, but the term has a broader definition. Facial recognition technology falls into the biometric category. There are already several cameras on the market that can detect faces. A few are able to recognize and remember a group of faces. You just take a picture of a friend, tag the photo and the camera will automatically tag any future photos of that friend. It's both cool and creepy.Imagine using this technology in public places to identify the people passing through. For example, a major city might install cameras at high-traffic areas to scan for terrorists or identify criminals. While the motivation for using that technology might be pure, it creates difficult privacy issues. The city would have a record of everyone who passed through that neighborhood. The technology treats everyone as a suspect as if it's only a matter of time before each of us commits a crime. And what happens if the technology makes a mistake and misidentifies someone? Weather conditions, clothing, hairstyles and even the cleanliness of the lens could affect the ability of the camera to identify people. Critics might ask: Why install a system that's unreliable?

What happens if a person suffers an illness or injury that changes his or her appearance? Such a change could present problems with biometrics. Adjusting the biometric system to accommodate the change could also result in a violation of the user's privacy. The system administrator now knows more details about the user.

A society with pervasive biometric systems would make anonymity a virtual impossibility. Should that society become oppressive or otherwise abusive to the population, the citizens would have few opportunities to react without revealing their own identities.

Groups like the Biometrics Institute are aware of privacy concerns and strive to create processes to limit the chance for biometric applications to violate a person's privacy. Other groups advocate that companies, governments and other organizations conduct a privacy assessment before installing a biometric system. With vigilance and caution, we may find a way to incorporate biometrics into our lives and still maintain our privacy.

32. According to paragraph 1, what can we infer about biometrics?

A. It hasn’t been applied to real life so far.

B. Its purpose is unknown.

C. It can only scan a person's fingerprint.

D. It collects measures of human physiology and behavior.

33. What advantage does biometrics have over other methods of identity authentication?

A. Not mentioned

B. More convenient

C. More efficient

D. Not mentioned

34. What is the nature of biometric systems ?

A. Collecting the information only about the users' fingerprints, retinal patterns or other biometric data.

【答案与解析】

文章围绕生物特征识别系统这个话题展开论述,作者前面描述了生物特征识别系统给人类带来了各种好处,但后面出现转折,描述了生物特征识别系统侵犯了人们的隐私以及呼吁针对这个问题所采取的一些措施。

32. D  推断题,定位到文章第一段“In general, biometrics is a collection of measures of human physiology and behavior”,得知此题选D,一般来说,生物识别是收集测定人体生理和行为指标的。

33. B  事实细节题,问题是:生物识别技术比其他身份认证方法有什么优势?定位到文章第二段“Biometrics tend to be more convenient than other methods of identity authentication”,生物特征识别往往比其他身份认证方法更方便。因此,此题选B。

34. C  事实细节题,问题是:生物识别系统的本质是什么?定位到文章第三段“But by their very nature, biometric systems collect more information than just the users' fingerprints, retinal patterns or other biometric data. At a basic level, most systems will record when and where a person is at the time of a scan”,但就其本质而言,生物识别系统收集的信息不仅仅是用户的指纹、视网膜模式或其他生物识别数据。在基本级别上,大多数系统都会记录扫描时人员的时间和位置。所以,此题选C。

35. D 主旨大意题,通过对全文认真分析和理解,得知此题选D。

【文章大意】

我们都看过这样的电影:一个角色在进入一个绝密的装置前,通过视网膜扫描来证明他或她的身份。这是一个生物识别系统的例子。一般来说,生物测定学是人类生理学和行为学的一个集合。生物识别系统可以扫描一个人的指纹或分析他或她在键盘上键入的方式。大多数生物识别系统的目的是验证一个人声称的身份。

生物特征识别往往比其他身份认证方法更方便。出门时,你可能会忘记自己的身份证,但你仍然可以使用生物识别设备。想象一下,在商店里用手指划过传感器来验证你的身份。

但是,伴随着便利和安全,隐私也受到了关注。要使生物特征识别工作,需要有一个数据库,其中包含系统授权的每个人的相关信息。例如,在这个绝密装置中,每个员工的生物特征签名都必须被记录下来,这样扫描仪就可以验证每个人的身份。这本身可能不会带来太多问题。如果系统存储的唯一数据与实际的生物特征测量相关,则至少会侵犯隐私。但从本质上说,生物特征系统收集的信息不仅仅是用户的指纹、视网膜图案或其他生物特征数据。在基本级别上,大多数系统都会记录扫描时人员的时间和位置。

当你听到生物识别这个词时,你可能会想到指纹或视网膜扫描仪,但这个词有一个更广泛的定义。面部识别技术属于生物识别技术。市场上已经有几个摄像头可以检测人脸。一些人能够识别和记忆一组面孔。你只需给一个朋友拍张照片,给照片加上标签,相机就会自动给他将来的任何照片加上标签。既酷又恐怖。

想象一下,在公共场所使用这种技术来识别经过的人。例如,一个大城市可能会在交通繁忙的地区安装摄像头,以扫描恐怖分子或识别罪犯。虽然使用这项技术的动机可能是纯粹的,但它会造成难以解决的隐私问题。这座城市将记录所有经过那个街区的人。这项技术把每个人都当作嫌疑犯对待,好像我们每个人犯罪只是时间问题。

如果技术出了错,误认了某人,会发生什么?天气状况、衣服、发型甚至镜头的清洁度都会影响相机识别人的能力。批评者可能会问:为什么要安装一个不可靠的系统?如果一个人患病或受伤,改变了他或她的外表,会发生什么?这种变化可能会给生物特征学带来问题。调整生物识别系统以适应变化也可能导致侵犯用户隐私。系统管理员现在了解用户的更多详细信息。一个拥有普及生物特征识别系统的社会将使匿名成为一种虚拟的不可能。如果社会变得压迫或以其他方式虐待人口,公民将几乎没有机会在不暴露自己身份的情况下作出反应。

像生物识别研究所这样的团体意识到隐私问题,并努力创建流程,以限制生物识别应用程序侵犯个人隐私的机会。其他团体主张,公司、政府和其他组织在安装生物识别系统之前进行隐私评估。警惕和谨慎,我们可能会找到一种方法,将生物特征融入我们的生活,并仍然保持我们的隐私。

第二节  (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

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。选项中有两项为多项。

The world’s fastest runners come from Jamaica. In the past decade most of the sprint events have been dominated by male and female runners from the Caribbean island. Usain Bolt, Asafa Powell and Verona Campbell-Brown are among Jamaica’s world record holders and Olympic gold medalists.

___36_____ In former times sprinters were poor people who came from the slums. When they saw they had talent they got scholarships at American colleges. They experienced world class training there but,nevertheless,did not feel at home. Today,Jamaica has the money to employ top coaches,so Jamaican sprinters stay at home. Here they are more relaxed and can perform better.

In Jamaica,children start running at a very early age. When they get to school,teachers and athletic coaches watch them run and walk. Then,depending on their talent they are sent to track and field clubs.__37__ At school track meets crowds of teenagers get together to compete with each other. Running is very important in Jamaica and winning a national title or a school championship is something really big. __38__Another reason for Jamaica’s success on tracks around the world is food. A typical breakfast includes salt fish with yams,bananas and maybe a cup of tea. It contains carbohydrates which runners need to perform well. __39__ They have long legs and little fat. Their narrow hips allow them to lift their knees higher when they run. Many scientists have been researching African and Caribbean runners in order to find out if they have a special gene that makes them faster than the others. __40__

The success of Bolt,Powell and others has triggered hype among Jamaican children. These are their idols and they want to be just like them.

A.A tough competition may be one of the reasons why Jamaicans are so good.

B.Nutritionists argue that the diet of Jamaican children is one of the keys to success.

C.Jamaican athletes are also built differently from non-blacks.

D.Running has changed in Jamaica.

E.Most of the country’s world class runners started out in the two leading track clubs.

F.Hard training and iron will is essential to be among the best in the world.

G.However,there is no evidence of such a gene.

【答案与解析】

本文主要讲了牙买加跑步运动员跑步快的原因。

36.D 根据后文内容可推断出跑步使得牙买加人的生活发生了变化,所以选D。

37.E 根据前后文内容,空前讲“they are sent to track and field clubs”,空后讲“At school track meets crowd...”,由此可以推断出此处选E。

38.A 根据后一段中“Another reason”可知前文讲的是其中的一种原因,再结合前文内容就可以推断出此处选A。

39.C 根据后文内容可知这一段讲的是牙买加运动员身体的特征,以及后文中“... they have a special gene that makes them faster than the others”。由这两点可推出此处应选C。

40.G 这一段主要讲了研究人员认为基因对于牙买加运动员在跑步这一方面有一定的影响,所以此处选的也应与基因有关,所以选G。

【短文大意】

世界上跑得最快的选手来自牙买加。在过去的十年里,大多数短跑项目都是由加勒比岛的男女选手主宰的。乌塞恩·博尔特、阿萨法·鲍威尔和维罗纳·坎贝尔·布朗是牙买加世界纪录保持者和奥运会金牌得主之一。

牙买加的跑步的情况已经改变了。从前,短跑运动员是来自贫民窟的穷人。当他们看到自己有天赋时,就获得了美国大学的奖学金。他们在那里接受过世界级的训练,但却没有宾至如归的感觉。现在,牙买加有足够的资金聘请顶级教练,所以牙买加短跑运动员留在家。在这里,他们更放松,表现更好。

在牙买加,孩子们很早就开始跑步了。当他们上学时,老师和体育教练看着他们跑步和走路。然后,根据他们的天赋,他们被送到田径俱乐部。大多数国家的世界级跑步者都是从两个领先的田径俱乐部开始的。在学校跑道上,成群结队的青少年聚在一起互相竞争。在牙买加,跑步是非常重要的,赢得国家冠军或学校冠军是非常重要的。艰难的竞争可能是牙买加人如此优秀的原因之一。

牙买加在世界各地赛道上取得成功的另一个原因是食物。典型的早餐包括含山药的咸鱼、香蕉,也许还有一杯茶。它含有跑步者需要表现良好的碳水化合物。牙买加运动员的体格也不同于非黑人。他们的腿长,脂肪少,臀部窄,跑步时可以把膝盖抬高。许多科学家一直在研究非洲和加勒比的跑步者,以找出他们是否有一个特殊的基因,使他们比其他人跑得更快。然而,没有证据表明有这种基因。

由于天花乱坠的广告宣传在牙买加引发的炒作使博尔特、鲍威尔和其他人的成功在牙买加儿童中引起了轰动,这些人都是孩子们的偶像,孩子们想和他们一样获得成功。
