Postmen are all too used to keeping an eye out for the threat of dogs. But in a seaside town in North Wales，they have been forced to take cover from an unexpected threat seagulls. They have complained that the birds have become so terrifying that deliveries to some streets have been suspended. Yesterday residents of Abergele agreed the seagulls were fearless but said they were angry at losing their daily post.

Roberts, who works as a safety adviser，lives where the attacks have taken place. “Last week，we noticed we hadn’t got any mail for what we thought was a week，but it’s hard to tell because you don’t always know if you’re due any mail，”she said. “We put something on　 Facebook asking if anyone else had not had their post. . . One of my Facebook friends said a postman had refused to deliver because of the seagulls. ”

Royal Mail said that deliveries had been interrupted because of the postman experiencing attacks by seagulls as he delivered mail on his round there over the past few weeks, adding that the postman got people’s mail through whenever it was safe.

“We know that these kinds of attacks do happen at this time of year across the country as they are nesting，’’she said. Royal Mail apologized to the customers affected and promised to continue to monitor the situation every day，but in the meantime some are having to travel to neighbouring Rhyl to collect mail from the delivery office there. But he recommends preventing gulls nesting on roofs in advance by putting up nets, and if all else fails, walking with an umbrella up during worst-affected areas.

高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

Science textbooks around the world have become suddenly out of date. Four new chemical elements(元素)have been added to the periodic table. A big decision now lies ahead-elements 113,115,117 and 118 need to be given their official names and symbols.

New elements can be named after a mythical(神话的) concept, a mineral, a place or country, a property(性质) or a scientist. The names have to be unique and maintain ＂historical and chemical consistency＂. This means a lot of ＂-iums＂.

＂They’re Latinising the name,＂ explains chemist Andrea Sella. ＂The most recent tradition is to name them after places or people.＂ The places chosen tend to be where the element was discovered or first produced.

No one has yet named an element after themselves but many elements are named in honour of important scientists. Albert Einstein was given einsteinium. This can also be a way of righting the wrongs of the past. ＂Lise Meitner was really the chemist who spotted nuclear fission(核裂变)but she was never really recognised for it because she was Jewish and a woman, ＂ says Sella. ＂Giving an element a name that reminds us of her is greatly important. ＂

The naming process isn’t quick. The scientists who discovered them will start things off by suggesting a name. But it will be down to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) to approve it. A special division of the US-based group has to accept the suggestion. Then there is a public review period of five months before the IUPAC gets the final approval. Once it’s ready, the name is announced in the scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry.

Naming an element is not just about functionality. Names are always important.

1.What is the function of Paragraph 1?

A. To introduce the topic.

B. To present a finding.

C. To point out a problem.

D. To call for a decision,

2.Why was Lise Meitner mentioned in the naming process in Paragraph 4?

A. To praise her.

B. To build her reputation.

C. To correct the wrongs of the past.

D. To end racial discrimination

3.Who has the final say in the naming process of an element?

A. The scientist who discovered them.

B. The special division of US-based group.

C. The scientific journal Pure and Applied Chemistry,

D. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. How elements get their names.

B. Why science textbooks are out of date.

C. How new elements are discovered.

D. How functional naming an element is.
