Wind turbines are efficient sources of cheap energy but also a source of concern as their huge spinning blades (叶片) frequently kill birds and bats. A new type of wind generator developed in Spain offers a creative solution to that problem.

In 2002, Spanish inventor David Yanez saw a short film about the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in the U.S., collapsing in strong wind. It was a vivid example of the powerful vibrations wind can create when it blows past a long pole, such as a car antenna or even a stick of bamboo. It gave him the idea for a new type of wind-energy generator.

“The initial philosophy or spirit was to create a generator of dreams that had all the qualities one would want: It should be as cheap as possible, need as little maintenance as possible, the setup as simple as possible,” he said.

Yanez and his friend Raoul Martin took the idea to an engineering firm, where they were told it would never work. Undiscouraged, they started experimenting on their own in a small wind tunnel they built.

Good initial results were repeated by a larger working model called Vortex (涡旋) installed in a nearby field. “What we have is a mast (桅杆), which is the top piece and acts as a blade,” Yanez said. “It’s constructed from the same material as a conventional generator, and what it does is it oscillates (振荡), transmitting the oscillation to a conventional alternator, which by its own oscillation converts the wind’s energy into electric energy.”

Yanez said the output of the 6-meter-tall generator, and even that of smaller models, was better than expected. The Vortex creates about 30 percent less energy than a comparable bladed wind turbine, but it is lighter and cheaper to build and maintain. It is made mostly of reinforced plastic and has very few moving parts. Also, it does not create noise and—even more important for many environmentalists—it does not present a threat to passing birds.

The current prototype works at wind speeds ranging from 1.5 to 7 meters per second. The inventors say the next step is building a 12.5-meter tall bladeless generator with a 4-kilowatt capacity that could power small businesses or individual homes, or provide supplemental power to a main grid. The commercial version of the Vortex Bladeless generator should be ready for the market by 2017.

1.The author mentions a short film about the Tacoma Narrows Bridge to show ________.

A. what the initial philosophy or spirit was

B. what inspired Yanez to create the generator

C. how the bridge was destroyed in strong wind

D. how wind creates powerful vibrations

2.What do we know from the passage?

A. The original idea was considered as practical in an engineering firm.

B. Yanez and Martin’s initial tests by themselves proved to be successful.

C. The material for constructing the mast is different from that of the past.

D. The new generator is better at creating energy than a comparable bladed one.

3. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Bladeless wind-power generator is friendly to birds.

B. Wind turbines are efficient sources of cheap energy.

C. A new generator will come onto the market by 2017.

D. Yanez has made a generator for the benefit of people.

I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or conflict. I ’m left 　　　 . Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other 　　　 ？

I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s, 　　　 children from different races and religions played and studied 　　 in harmony. At that time my family lived a stone’s　　　 from Ismail’s.

Perhaps, our elders had not filled our heads with unnecessary advice，well 　　　 or otherwise.

We were nine when we became friends. During the school holidays, we'd 　　　 the countryside on our bicycles, hoping to 　　　 the unexpected. At times Ismail would accompany my family as we made a rare shopping trip to town. We would be glad of his 　　 .

When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail’s family later returned to their village, and I 　　　　 touch with him.

One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. I 　　　 my destination. The driver acknowledged my 　　　 but did not move off. Instead, he looked 　　　 at me.“Raddar?" he said, using my childhood nickname(绰号). I was astonished at being so 　　　　 addressed (称呼). Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two 　　 we still recognized each other. Grasping his shoulder, I felt a true affection, something 　　　 to describe.

If we can allow our children to be 　　 without prejudice, they'll build friendships with people, regardless of race or religion, who will be 　　　 their side through thick and thin. On such friendships are societies built and 　　 we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote, “We happy few, we band of brothers".

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该选项的标号涂黑。

The literal meaning of philosophy is “love of wisdom”. But this meaning does not tell us very much. Unlike the other disciplines(学科)，philosophy cannot be defined by what you study, because it is actually unlimited. Anything can be the subject matter of philosophy: art, history, law, language, literature, mathematics, medicine, psychology, religion, science, and values. Philosophy is one of the world’s oldest subjects of study, and in fact, the other academic disciplines are directly related to philosophy. For this reason you get a Doctorate(博士学位) of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in biochemistry, or computer science, or psychology.

Two broad sub-fields of philosophy are logic and the history of philosophy. Logic is the science of argument and critical thinking. It provides sound methods for distinguishing good from bad reasoning. The history of philosophy involves the study of major philosophers and periods in the development of philosophy.

Of what use is philosophy? First it is useful in educational advancement. It is necessary for understanding other disciplines. Only philosophy questions the nature of the concepts used in a discipline, and its relation to other disciplines. And through the study of philosophy, one develops sound methods of research and analysis that can be applied to any field.

There are a number of general uses of philosophy. It strengthens one’s ability to solve problems, to communicate, to organize ideas and issues, to persuade, and to take what is the most important from a large quantity of data.These general uses are of great benefit in the career field, not necessarily for obtaining one’s first job after graduation, but for preparing for positions of responsibility, management and leadership later on. It is very short-sighted after all, to take a course of studies only for the purpose of getting one’s first job. The useful skills developed through the study of philosophy have significant long-term benefits in career advancement. No other discipline systematically follows the ideals of wisdom, leadership, and capacity to resolve human conflict.

1.According to Paragraph 1, philosophy can best be described as the study of ______.

A．social sciences

B．natural sciences

C．both social and natural sciences

D．the subject matter of politics

2.With the study of philosophy, you can_______.

A．become a great leader

B．succeed in everything

C．find a good job soon after graduation

D．make progress in your career development

3.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．Philosophy is an independent discipline.

B．Logic helps you to become a better thinker.

C．The study of philosophy brings you immediate benefits.

D．The meaning of philosophy is too limited to define.

4.From the passage, we can conclude ______.

A．not all the subjects have to do with philosophy

B．a person will get a Ph.D. if he/she studies philosophy

C．philosophy can be helpful for the study of any other subjects

D．philosophy is the only solution to all the problems to the world

A surprisingly high number of city citizens in China suffer from poor health and many die at an early age.

Poor health with no sign of any identified disease, a condition known in China as “sub health,” is on the rise. Sub health is marked by general weakness, low energy levels and a poor immune system.

A survey held in 16 cities with over 1 million population showed high proportions of urban Chinese have been suffering sub health problems.

The numbers are particularly high in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, with 75.31, 73.49, and 73.41 percent respectively of residents in poor health, the survey showed.

The problem happens mostly among senior and middle-level managers, clerks and other white-collar workers with high education levels, said the website of the Red Cross Society of China.

“The sub health condition, found in most cases among groups of people with a high educational level, will have bad effects on China’s long-term development and progress if not dealt timely and properly,” the website warned.

A survey by the Chinese Academy of Sciences shows that the average life of Chinese intellectuals is 58 years, 10 years lower than the nation’s average.

This early death phenomenon may be increasing.

Among Chinese people with high education in the 25-59 age group, the death rate for women is as high as 10.4 per cent. For men it is even higher: 16.5 percent.
