27、As she once said of herself: “I would never sit back in a rocking chair ,waiting for someone to help me.” No one could have had a more productive old age.She was born Anna Roberston on a farm in New York State ,one of five boys and five girls.(“We came in bunches ,like radishes.”)At twelve she left

28、home and was in domestic service until ,at twenty-seven ,she married Thomas Moses ,the hired hand of one of her employees.

34、 our world .It covers seventy-one per cent of the earth. There is still much to be discovered about working to explain its mysteries(神秘) .Some are studying ways of bringing the oceans huge supply of water to the deserts of the world. Others hope to control the weather by learning more about the exch

35、ange of heat and moisture (潮濕) between the ocean and the air. Others are studying the ways in which sound travels and is affected by water and heat.One of the most interesting projects in oceanography（ 海洋學(xué)）is the work of mapping the ocean floor .Only a very small part of it has been mapped. This was

36、 not important when only surface ships sailed the worlds ocean, but is can mean the difference between life and death to men in submarines(潛水艇) .Long ago there was only one way to find out how deep the ocean was. A seamen could throw a weighted rope over the side of his ship .Then he pulled the rope

37、 up after it had reached the bottom .But this was not a very exact way of measuring.In the 20th century a better way was found . Sound was used to measure the ocean. Seaman did an experiment .They dropped a number of devices(裝置) that would burst with a loud noise when they hit the bottom .And a litt

38、le instrument measured the time it took for the sound to reach the ship. This has helped the scientists to map the ocean floor.Underwater photography is also important in mapping parts of the ocean floor.Around the edges of the continents the ocean floor is flat and the water does not become much de

42、ed rope is _.A. exact B. a new way C. false D. nearly correct but not exact69.Another aid to the mapping of the ocean floor has been in the _.A. twentieth century B. eighteenth century C. seventeenth century D. nineteenth century70.The oceans greatest riches are found_.A. in deep hollows B. in the f

43、lat part of the sea C. close to the continents D. around islandsD“Most episode(片段) of absent-mindednessforgetting where you left something or wondering why you just entered a room are caused by a simple lack of attention , ” says Schacter. “Youre supposed to remember something , but you havent encod

44、ed it deeply”“Encoding”, Schacter explains , “ is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major effect on remembering it later . Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations .If you put your mobile phone in a pocket , for example ,and dont pay attention to what you did

45、because youre involved in a conversation ,youll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your wardrobe(衣柜).” “Your memory itself isnt failing you ,”says Schacter. “ Rather , you didnt give your memory system the information it needed.”Lack of interest can also lead to absent-mi

46、ndedness. “A man who can recite sports statistics(數(shù)據(jù)) from 30 years age .”says Zelinski, “may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox.” Women have slightly better memories than men , possibly because they pay more attention to their environment . And memory depends on just that.“Reminders can h

47、elp prevent absent-mindedness,” says Schacter. “But be sure the reminder is clear and available,” he says. If you want to remember to take medicine with lunch , put it on the kitchen tabledont leave it in the medicine chest and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket .Another common episode

48、of absent-mindedness: walking into a room and wondering why youre there . Most likely , you are thinking about something else .“Everyone does this from time to time ,” sys Zelinski, The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room and youll likely remember.71.Why does the

50、er variety of interests.B. They are more dependent on the environment.C. They pay more attention to things they like.D.

51、h for you to read.C. Because its out of your sight.D. Because it might get mixed up with other things.74.What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. If we pay more attention to one thing ,we might forget another.B. Memory depends to a certain extent on the environment.C. Doing something again helps

54、e , in 1979 , The book was about a hare , and a month before it came out Williams buried a gold hare in a park in Bedfordshire .The book contained a large number of clues to help readers find the hare , but Williams put in a lot of “ red h herrings”, or false clues , to mislead them .Ken Roberts , the man who found the hare , had been looking for it for nearly two years
