26、 On today’s program we talk about the word “field.” But which one? There are many different kinds of fields.
First, we will talk about fields in which you can work. A common question when you first meet someone in the States is, “What field do you work in?” or simply “What is your field?” Work fields are usually general. For example, if you are a doctor you would answer that you work in the medical field. A lawyer is in the legal field. And a marketing specialist’s field is business.
Now, another kind of field is also outside but we use this one for sports activities. And this type of field has led to several common expressions.
A level playing field is when the conditions of competition are fair or even. Everyone has the same shot at winning. This expression comes from the fact that for a sports field to be fair, it must be the same for both teams. It would be unfair if one team had to play on a rocky part of a field while the other team played on smooth ground.
Maybe you have heard of this expression before or maybe it came out of left field. “To come out of left field” or simply “out of left field” is another baseball term. It means something is a surprise to you. You were not expecting it at all! Other times it can describe something strange or odd.
I hope you have enjoyed today’s show on field expressions.
【1】According to Paragraph 2, who works in the news field?
A. A reporter. B. A lawyer.
C. A teacher. D. A doctor.
【2】How many kinds of fields are mentioned in the passage?
A. One. B. Two.
C. Three. D. Four.
【3】What does the underlined word “even” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Equally balanced. B. Calm.
C. Equally spaced. D. Smooth.
27、 What is success? I am not going to try to explain success. I think a precise meaning is impossible! Is it winning a Gold Medal at the Olympic Games or winning Wimbledon, or being awarded a Nobel Prize? What else? I believe personal success could be anything at all—it does not have to involve public recognition. Who is more successful? A millionaire who is unhappy, or an unnoticed person, who has led a simple, quiet, sincere and happy life? The simplest definition of success, I think, is “to set out to do something and to succeed in doing it”.
The first step on the road to success starts with belief. Believe you can succeed and you will. Achieving success in whatever endeavor (努力) you choose may be the goal of life, because it gives you freedom from worry. Could that be?
Success means different things to every one of us. Some people believe it is measured in financial term; others believe it is helping others rather than helping themselves. However, most people are motivated to a great extent by public recognition. How many people are really happy?
How many people are really doing what they want to with their lives? Incidentally, the ability to imagine makes us different from animals.
Most important of all, I believe success is a matter of personal growth. If every day you are developing or growing just a millimeter, I believe one is successful. Just being a slightly better person each day for me is success. I’ve got a very long way to go them!
Finally, always remember success is a process and is not simply a matter of arriving at a destination. It’s the journey that really matters. Success is what you become in the often very difficult and dangerous journey down the river of life.
【1】What is personal success according to the author?
A.Winning public recognition.
B.Being an unhappy millionaire.
C.Something impossible to define simply.
D.Succeeding in doing what you want.
【2】According to the text, humans are different from animals in .
A.belief B.imagination
C.freedom D.success
【3】What can be the best title for the text?
A.What is success
B.No true success
C.How to be successful
D.Success is reaching a destination
28、 Why does cream go bad faster than butter? Some researchers think they have the answer, and it comes down to the structure of the food, not its chemical composition-a finding that could help break away from some chemicals. Cream and butter contain pretty much the same things, so why cream should go bad much faster has been a problem. Both are small globules (小球) of one liquid which spreads throughout another. The difference lies in what's in the globules and what's in the surrounding liquid, says Brocklehurst, who led the research. In cream, fatty globules drift about in a sea of water. In butter, globules of a watery roads are locked away in a sea of fat. The bacteria (细菌) which make the food go bad prefer to live in the watery areas of the mixture. "This means that in cream, the bacteria are free to grow throughout the mixture," he says, "when in butter, the bacteria are locked away in locked places buried deep in the sea of fat. Trapped in this way, those colonies cannot spread and rapidly run out. They also slowly poison themselves with their waste products." "In butter, you get a self-limiting system which stops the bacteria growing." says Brocklehurst. The researchers are already working with food companies eager to see if their products can be made to stand bacterial attack through changes of the food's structure.
Brocklehurst believes it will be possible to make something used in salad cream, for instance, more like that in butter. The key will be to do this while keeping the salad cream liquid and not turning it into a solid state.
【1】The significance of Brocklehurst's research is that __________.
A.it discovered small globules in both cream and butter
B.it suggested a way to keep some foods fresh without using some chemicals
C.it showed the secret of how bacteria increase in cream and butter
D.it found that cream and butter share the same chemical composition
【2】According to Brocklehurst, we can keep cream fresh by __________.
A.changing its structure B.killing the bacteria
C.reducing its water D.removing its fat
【3】The underlined word "colonies" in the first paragraph refers to __________.
A.tiny globules B.watery regions
C.the surrounding liquid D.bacteria society
【4】Commercial use of the research finding will be possible if salad cream can be made to stand bacterial attack _____.
A.by changing its chemical composition
B.by turning it into a solid lump (肿块)
C.while its liquid form remains
D.while keeping its structure unchanged
29、 In an ideal world, people would not test medicines on animals. Such experiments are stressful and sometimes painful for animals, and expensive and time-consuming for people. Yet animal experimentation is still needed to help bridge vast gaps in medical knowledge. That is why there are some 50 to 100 million animals used in research around the world each year.
Europe, on the whole, has the world’s most restrictive laws on animal experiments. Even so, its scientists use some 12 million animals a year, most of them mice and rats, for medical research. Official statistics show that just 1.1 million animals are used in research in America each year. But that is misleading. The American authorities do not think mice and rats are worth counting and, as these are the most common laboratory animals, the true figure is much higher. Japan and China have even less comprehensive data than America.
Now Europe is reforming the rules governing animal experiments by restricting the number of animals used in labs. Alternatives to animal testing, such as using human tissue or computer models,are now strongly recommended. In addition, sharing all research results freely should help to reduce the number of animals for scientific use. At present, scientists often share only the results of successful experiments. If their findings do not fit the hypothesis being tested, the work never sees the light of day. This practice means wasting time, money, and animals’ lives in endlessly repeating the failed experiments.
Animal experimentation has taught humanity a great deal and saved countless lives. It needs to continue, even if that means animals sometimes suffer. Europe’s new measures should eventually both reduce the number of animals used in experiments and improve the way in which scientific research is conducted.
【1】What is the main idea of this passage?
A.The success of animal experiments should be ensured.
B.A ban on the use of animals in the lab should be enforced.
C.Greater efforts need to be taken to reduce the number of lab animals.
D.Scientists should be required to share their research results with each other.
【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE about animals used in the lab?
A.America uses only about 1.1 million lab animals per year.
B.Europe does not use mice and rats as lab animals at all.
C.Britain does not use as many lab animals as China does.
D.Japan has limited data on the number of lab animals used each year.
【3】Which of the following is mentioned as an alternative to replace animal experiments?
A.Statistical studies.
B.Computer models.
C.DNA planted in animals.
D.Tissue from dead animals.
【4】What usually happens to unsuccessful animal experiments?
A.They are not revealed to the public.
B.They are made into teaching materials.
C.They are collected for future publication.
D.They are not removed from the research topic list.
