Annealing
Annealing is a way of making metal softer by heating it and then letting it cool very slowly, if metal is heated and then cooled very quickly, for example by dipping(浸) it in water, it will be very hard but also very brittle(脆)—that is, it will break easily. Metal that has been annealed is soft but does not breaks as easily. It is possible to make metal as hard or as soft as is wished, by annealing it. The metal is heated, and allowed to cool slowly for a certain length of time. The longer the heated metal takes to cool slowly, the softer it becomes. Annealing can also be used on other material, such as glass.
1. Annealing can make metal ____
  A. hard and tough(韧) B. hard but brittle  C. soft but tough  D. soft and brittle
2. Why do people put hot metal in water?
  A. To make it hard.  B. To make it soft. C. To make it cool. D. To make it brittle
3. In annealing, the required hardness of a metal depends on  ______
  A. the quantity of water used B. the temperature of the metal
  C. the softness of the metal   D. the timing of the operation
4. As suggested by the text, how can glass be made less brittle?
  A. It can be heated and then cooled quickly.
  B. It can be cooled and then heated slowly.
  C. It can be heated and then cooled slowly.
D. It can be cooled and then heated quickly.
答案

1---4   CADC 
解析
1.此题属词句意义理解题。文章第一句“Annealing is a way of making metal sofer”。第三句“Metal that has been annealed is soft but does not break as easily”.其中“does not break as easily”的意思就是“tough”.因此C项符合要求。A和D两面中均有一方面与上文不符。B中两方面均不符。因此都被排除。C为正确答案。
2.本题属推断归纳题。文中第一句:”if metal is heated and then cooled very quickly, for example by dipping it in water, it will be very hard but also very brittle”.意思是说如果把金属加热,然后迅速放到水里冷却,也就会变得非常硬,但也变得脆。“bald”是工艺的主观目的。“brittle”是伴随的客观结果。因此选A而不选D,B项与题目不符:C项是手段不是目的。因此,都可被排除。A为正确答案。
3.此题属概括归纳题。timing是时间的选择。本答案的依据是5和6两句,“The metal is heated,… length of time.”“The longer…the softer it becomes.”,“。cool”的时间是可以控制的,时间越长就越“soft”,即硬度就越低。由此我们可得出结论:在退火过程中,金属的硬度是受到冷却的时间长短影响的。文章中没有提到退火时使用的水的数量,没有提到金属的温度,也没有提及金属的软度。因此这三答案均被排除。D为正确答案。
4.此题属推理判断题。文中最后一句说“Annealing can also be used on other materials ,such as glass.”很明显退火这工艺同样可用于象玻璃一类的其他材料。文中我们已知“annealing”就是先“heat”后“。cool slowly”.由此推断C是正确的。A项中“Cooled quickly”不符合上述工艺要求。B和C工艺程序都不对。因此,A、B、D三项被排除。C为正确答案.

Shishmaref, an Eskimo village on an island off northwestern Alaska, is falling into the ocean. Giant storm waves have so hit the place—once well buffered by sea ice—that villagers voted in 2002 to leave their ancestral home for the mainland. They are being called one of the first refugees(难民)of global warming.  
“We tend to describe climate change in terms that are abstract—a one degree rise in temperature, an increase in greenhouse gases—but when waves wash away a village, that’s concrete and very emotional,” says Igor Krupnik, an expert at the National Museum of Natural History. “When they lose a piece of their land, they aren’t just losing a certain number of square miles. They are losing part of their history and their memory. They are losing childhood events and grandparents’ tales.”
Before temperatures began to rise in Shishmaref about 30 years ago, 20 to 30 miles of hard sea ice protected the village from powerful fall storms. But the natives say the ice doesn’t freeze as solidly or as soon as it used to and now stretches only six or seven miles, leaving the community of 600 people more exposed. Storms have swept houses into the ocean.
The villagers’ plan is to move to Tin Creek, a site on the Alaska mainland 12 miles away, and they have received $180 million from the government. Residents hope that in their new community they’ll be able to maintain their close ties, continue hunting animals, and keep fishing, much as their ancestors have done for centuries. “People are asking why the government should be spending so much money on so few people,” said a government official. “But people in Alaska are like everyone else. We want to help keep their culture alive.”
小题1:The underlined word “buffered” probably means “______”.  
A.protectedB.destroyedC.preventedD.damaged
小题2:From the passage what do we know about the sea ice around the village in the past?
A.It was very thin and easily broken.
B.It was very thick and smooth.
C.It frozen more solidly and sooner.
D.It frozen more slowly and solidly.
小题3:According to the passage, _____ caused the village to be in danger of disappearing.
A.water pollutionB.global warming
C.air pollutionD.human’s actions
小题4:What’s the villagers’ main purpose to rebuild the community?
A.To live more happilyB.To earn money
C.To avoid being washed awayD.To keep their culture alive

  On May 21, 2000, some American scientists were working at the computers to look for information they needed . Suddenly they saw a lot of very bright red spots crossing the computers’ screens. At the same time the computers were working much slower. To find out what was happening they stopped their work to check some parts of the computers. To their horror, they found out that most of their stored information was got rid of by computer viruses (病毒). Obviously all these computers had been infected by computer viruses.
It is said that the computer viruses were made by two or three Philippine young men fond of playing tricks. They all had excellent education. They created the viruses just to show their intelligence. The kind of computer virus is named I Love You Virus. This virus can hide in computers for long. When the time comes they will attack the computers by lowering the important functions, damaging their normal programs or even getting rid of a great deal of information which operators of the computers often use or store, what’s worse, it still can reproduce itself in great quantities within a short time.
We come to know that “I Love You” Virus often attacks computers on Mondays and that it is spreading to many computers in the world. Among the countries that suffered computer viruses last year are Britain, Australia, Switzerland and the USA. Those who made the computer muses have been found out slowly and carefully. But till now, how to get rid of the terrible viruses remains a problem.
1.When the viruses attack the computers, the computers will work _______.
  A. normally B. abnormally C. faster D. well
2 .Two or three Philippine young men created the computer viruses to _______.
  A. damage the computers
  B. test their ability quickly
  C. tell the world that they were intelligent
  D. play a trick in operators of the computers
3. According to the passage, computer viruses seem to________.
  A. have been in nature for years
  B. exist in any computers
  C. be able to be got rid of in the near future
  D. be difficult to get rid of at present
4.The most serious damage caused by the viruses is that_______.
  A. the computer’s funtions are lowered
  B. the normal programs are damaged
  C. all the information stored in the computers is gone
  D. the computers infected by the viruses can no longer be used
5. According to the passage, which of the following is true?
  A. Scientists are trying to find a way to get rid of the viruses.
  B. The viruses will come to the new computer after staying in the old one for some time.
  C. Last year four countries found their computers were infected by   viruses.
  D. The “I Love You” Virus is a great harm to human health.

The Ministry of Education has spared no efforts to bring on IT learning. What is its main aim? Is it to teach students how to learn the computer or is it meant to change the usual method of teaching in order to    1  students’ strong interest in computers?
Teaching students computer knowledge and skills is different     2  giving class lessons through the use of computers. And schools are beginning to pay much attention to using computers to teach students. There is     3  about the fact that IT learning plays an important role as a new teaching tool in this day of technology.    4  ,views differ on whether the schools can achieve their targets, as success     5  whether they can make use of computers effectively.
Let’s take the subject of Chinese as an example and see    6  difficulties the experts face in their IT management. At present,20 percent of lessons are given with the help of computers. In other words, in a period of 10 weeks, a Chinese-language teacher must spend two weeks to teach the subject    7  .In carrying out such a major policy as IT learning, the experts should know the    8  that different teachers teaching different subjects have different demands, thus making it     9  to see the policy through.
Some teachers, having already got some computer knowledge, will still be forced to    10  the training courses with those who have zero knowledge about computer.
Another problem is that new teachers may be sent to work in schools    11  IT learning has just started. All teachers—including the seniors who are very     12  in teaching, but who suddenly have no idea what to do when it comes to computers will have to    13  from the very beginning. They will become    14  and their teaching performances may be badly affected. The experts have found out how much of each subject is taught by computers in every school, and have     15  all schools to complete the given work. A hard-pressed teacher may put the daily teaching     16  or the courses onto the computer just to order the required time for IT learning and then    17  the usual way. Furthermore, he may leave school work to his    18  through the computer before class comes to an end in order to “complete” his IT learning    19  .   20   the teaching of the Chinese language is concerned, do computer lessons really achieve the desire goals to raise the students’ level of Chinese, pass on common values and so on?
