  Unit 1 Tales of the unexplainedⅠ.填词

  Another US President won the Nobel Peace Prize for his calls to reduce the world’s stockpile of nuclear weapons and working for world peace on October 9,2009.

  US President Barack Obama won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday.The Norwegian Nobel Committee praised Obama for “his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples”.The first African-American to hold his country’s highest office,Obama has called for disarmament(裁减军备)and worked to restart the stalled(陷入泥潭)Middle East peace process since taking office in January.“Very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world’s attention and given his people hope for a better future,” the Committee said.

  Jimmy Carter won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 as ex-president for what the Nobel Prize Committee said “his decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts,to advance democracy and human rights,and to promote economic and social development”.

  Woodrow Wilson won the 1919 prize in recognition of his Fourteen Points peace programme and work in achieving inclusion of the Covenant of the League of Nations in the 1919 Treaty of Versailles at the end of World War One.“The President succeeded in bringing a design for a fundamental law of humanity into present-day international politics,”the Nobel Committee said.

  Theodore Roosevelt won the 1906 prize for his role in ending the bloody 1905 war between two of the world’s great powers,Japan and Russia.The result was the Treaty of Portsmouth signed by Russia and Japan on September 5,1905,at Portsmouth,New Hampshire.

  Ⅱ.简答题

  A vast dust storm that blew in from the deserts of Australia’s red centre has blanketed the country’s largest city and eastern coast in a red fog,causing widespread traffic chaos and severe flight delays.

  Residents from Sydney in New South Wales to Canberra inland and towns in southern Queensland awoke to a red sky and greatly reduced visibility after the country’s worst dust storm in 70 years blew in overnight.The Sydney Harbor Bridge and Opera House were covered in the red fog and hundreds of people were reported to suffer from breathing problems.Children,the elderly and those suffering from asthma(哮喘)were advised to stay indoors as even healthy adults reported “itchy throats” after walking through the thick fog.

  Commuters used face masks,originally intended to protect them from the spread of swine flu,to negotiate(越过)the blocked streets on their way to work.Some schools were closed and sports activities were called off as the conditions pushed air pollution levels to 1,500 times their normal levels—the highest on record.

  Passengers at the busy Sydney Airport faced delays of up to six hours for international flights and three hours for domestic trips,and some international flights were cancelled as visibility was reduced to just a few feet.

  Locals,ringing in to radio stations to express their shock at the red dawn.“It’s like a nuclear winter morning,”Daniel Hall told the Daily Telegraph,adding that when he awoke the sky was “bright red” and “all the cars were covered in dirt”.

  The dust hanging over Sydney had largely cleared by mid-afternoon,although national carrier Qantas said severe delays would last all day because of diverted and late-running flights.

  The sandstorm,which measured more than 310 miles wide and 620 miles long,was caused by dust clouds blowing east from Australia’s dry interior,which has been attacked by the worst drought on record.It covered dozens of towns and cities in two states as strong winds snatched up tons of topsoil,threw it high into the sky and carried it hundreds of miles.

  1.Who were warned not to stay in the open air?(no more than 10 words)

  ________________________________________________________________________

  2.What was the face mask originally intended for?(no more than 10 words)

  ________________________________________________________________________

  3.What effect did the dust storm have on the flight?(no more than 8 words)

  4.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?(no more than 8 words)

  Ⅲ.阅读理解

  What will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question,you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术).With the help of new medicine,the human body will last a very long time.Death will come mainly from accidents,murder and war.Today’s leading killers,such as heart disease,cancer,and aging itself,will become distant memories.

  In discussion of technological changes,the Internet gets most of the attention these days.But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times.How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death.Cells are the basic units of all living things,and until recently,scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells,such as those of brain cells,would not last forever.But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine.Sometime between 2050 and 2100,medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so,people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs.The medicine,made up of the basic building materials of life,will build new brain cells,heart cells,and so on,in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.

  It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence,but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.

  1.According to the passage,human death is now mainly caused by ________.

  A.diseases and aging
