33、iles weep while eating their hunted animals because they are sad; however, this sadness is not honest.The term crocodile tears became widely popular after it was documented in a fifteenth-century book titled The Voyage and Travel of Sir John Mandeville, Knight. A passage from the book reads: "T

34、hese crocodiles kill men and they eat them weeping." As you may already know, crocodilians (鱷目動(dòng)物)likely feel bad about littleespecially feeding. However, the assumption of the crocodile-tears metaphor may be true. In a 2007 paper published in BioScience titled “Crocodile Tears: And they eaten t

35、hem wepynge ”(“Crocodile Tears: And they eat them weeping”), researchers observed 7 crocodilians in cages during feeding time at a reserve (4 caimans and 3 American alligators). The researchers observed the animals outside of water at feeding stations to better find out whether tearing developed. Fi

36、ve of the 7 crocodihans developed something like tears in their eyes before, during or after feeding. The researchers suggest that these crocodile tears occur because a crocodilian hisses （發(fā)出嘶嘶聲）while it cats, and this hissing forces air through the spaces in the bone behind the nose and out the eye

37、, in the process picking up nasolacrimal secretions （鼻淚管分泌物. In humans, crocodile tears is a medical condition that causes a person to tear up while eating. Crocodile tears typically occur because of a temporary loss of facial control due to damage of the facial nerve. Specifically, when the facial

38、nerve grows again, it does so incorrectly thus resulting in tears during chewing food.58. The underlined word “etymology” in Paragraph 1 refers to_. A.a reference book containing articles on various topicsB.the origin and history of a particular termC.a printed sheet of paper that arc given free to

39、advertiseD.the application and influeme of a new theory59. The term "crocodile tears"_.A.is a medical condition that causes a crocodile to tear upB.became widely popular as early as the fourth centuryC.refers to pretended sadnessD.proved to be only an assumption60. From the 2007 paper publ

40、ished in BioScience, we can know thatA.crocodilians especially feel bad about feedingB.not all the 7 crocodilians developed tearingC.the crocodilians were carefully observed inside waterD.crocodile tears occur because a crocodilian hisses after it eats61. The passage is mainly about_.A.what the real

41、 truth is about crocodile tearsB.when the term "crocodile tears" got popular in literatureC.how researchers made the experiment on crocodiliansD.why crocodile tears typically occur in humansCFor several decades, there has been an organized campaign intended to produce distrust in science,

42、funded by those whose interests are threatened by the findings of modem science. In response, scientists have tended to stress the success of science. After all, scientists have been right about most things, from the structure of the universe to the relativity of time and space. Stressing successes

43、isn't wrong, but for many people ifs not persuasive. An alternative answer to the question “Why trust science?” is that scientists use the so-called scientific method. But what is called the scientific method isn't what scientists actually do. Science is dynamic: new methods get invented; ol

44、d ones get abandoned; and at any particular point, scientists can be found doing many different things. False theories sometimes lead to true results, so even if an experiment works, it doesn't prove that the theory it was designed to test is true.If there is no specific scientific method, then

45、what is the basis for trust in science? The answer is the methods by which those claims are evaluated. A scientific claim is never accepted as true until it has gone through a long process of examination by fellow scientists. Scientists draft the initial version of a paper and then send it to collea

46、gues for suggestions. Until this point, scientific feedback is typically fairly friendly. But the next step is different: the revised paper is submitted to a scientific journal, where things get a whole lot tougher. Editors deliberately send scientific papers to people who are not friends or colleag

47、ues of the authors, and the job of the reviewer is to find errors or other faults. We call this process "peer review'' because the reviewers are scientific peersexperts in the same fieldbut they act in the role of a superior who has both the right and the responsibility to find fault. I

48、t is only after the reviewers and the editor are satisfied that any problems have beenfixed that the paper will be printed in the journal and enters the body of “science."Some people argue that we should not trust science because scientists arc “always changing their minds." While examples

49、 of truly settled science being overturned are far fewer than is sometimes claimed, they do exist. But the beauty of this scientific process is that science produces both creativity and stability. New observations, ideas, explanations and attempts to combine competing claims introduce creativity; tr

50、ansformative questioning leads to collective decisions and the stability of scientific knowledge. Scientists do change their minds in the face of new evidence, but this is a strength of science, not a weakness.62.Scientists stress the success of science in order to_.A.promote basic knowledge of scie

51、nceB.remind people of scientific achievementsC.remove possible doubts about scienceD.show their attitude towards the campaign63.What can we learn about the so-called scientific method?A.It's an easy job to prove its existence.B.It usually agrees with scientists* ideas.C.It hardly gets mixed with

52、 false theories.D.It constantly changes and progresses.64.What can we learn about "peer" review?A.It seldom gives negative evaluation of a paper.B.It is usually conducted by unfriendly experts.C.It aims to perfect the paper to be published.D.It happens at the beginning of the evaluation pr

53、ocess.65.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies that_.A.it is not uncommon for science to be overturnedB.scientists are very strong in changing their mindsC.people lose faith in those changeable scientistsD.changes bring creativity and stability to scienceDA Latin phrase beloved by ev

54、ery old-feshioncd British schoolmaster was mens sana in corpora sanoa healthy mind in a healthy body. Greater physical activity is associated with better mental, as well as physical, health. And it might also be linked to greater worker productivity, and thus faster economic growth. That is the conc

55、lusion of a new report from a European think tank RAND.The RAND study looks at different measures: absenteeism (when workers take time off for illness) and presenteeism (when they turn up for work but are less productive because of sickness). The latter measure was self-reported by employees, who we

56、re asked whether their work was negatively affected by health issues. The survey suggests that between 3 and 4.5 working days each year are lost as a consequence of workers being physically inactive. This is between 1.3% and 2% of annual working time. Most of this was down to presenteeism. Another p

57、otential gain from improved fitness is reduced health-care costs. In America, where health care is often provided through employment-based systems, firms could benefit. RAND estimates that total American health savings could be $6bn a year by 2025. But the study,s authors conclude that if people met

58、 certain exercise targets, global GDP could be around 0.17-0.24% higher by 2050. Nothing to laugh at in a world of slowing growth. How to encourage workers to become more active? Rewards are useful but only if they have conditions; giving all employees free gym membership does not seem to work. Another RAND Eu
