12、earch of fish. Two miles into the ocean, their boat began to have some problems. They managed to fix the problems, but decided to head back to shore anyway. However, before they could call for help or grab a life jacket, an eight-foot wave slammed hard against their boat and overturned it, throwing

13、both men into the cold Alaskan waters.Stranded, they beg an to look around to see what they could grab onto and saw a couple of the empty fishing boxes from the boat, floating around. Ryan managed to climb inside one. Stonie, however, was not as lucky and managed to only grab onto the lid of the box

14、. Soon, they both started drifting apart.While Ryan continued to bob up and down in the box, the waves started carrying Stonie away. But as luck would have it, he caught sight of one of the life suits from their boat floating in the ocean and managed to grab it. Though putting it on and hanging onto

15、 the lid at the same time was not an easy task, Stonie managed it and then began his long swim back to shore. He ended up on a deserted patch of land about 25 miles northwest of Sitka, where he had to wait until Saturday morning almost 24 hours after the fishing trip began, for rescuers to find him.

16、 Meanwhile, 19-year-old Ryan continued to drift around the ocean trying to stay alive and hoping someone would find him. The brave teenager repeated himself over and over again, “Im Ryan Hunter Harris and Im not going to die here.” He was sure he would be rescued.Two hours after his friend was rescu

That is the result of a new study on the connection between eye movements and personality, conducted by neuroscience researchers based at the University of South Australia and Published in the scientific Journal Frontiers

28、 in Neuroscience. And if that is true, computers and robots powered by sophisticated algorithms (算法) may soon have the ability to peer into your soul.Eye movements during an everyday task predict aspects of our personality, wrote the researchers, led by Tobias Loetscher, whose team followed 42 study

29、 subjects around the university campus recording their eye movements, then determined their personality traits (特點(diǎn)) with well-established questionnaires for determining personality type, and unfolded some kind of connections between eye movements and personality, according to a summary of the study

30、published by the site Science Daily.The researchers expected that with the data fed into their algorithms computers running the algorithms were able to record human eye movements and immediately determine a persons major personality traits, such as neuroticism, extraversion (外向)，agreeableness, consc

32、ays looking for improved, personalized services. Todays robots and computers are not socially aware so they cannot adapt to non-verbal information, Loetscher said in a statement quoted by Indian Express. This research provides opportunities to develop robots and computers that can become more natura

36、.DThe development of high-tech devices.24（8分）Children all over the world who have tried the potato or lemon battery experiments know that an electrical current can be generated by creating a reaction between the food and two different metals. However, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Te

37、chnology have found a way to harvest power from trees. They use the same metal for both electrodes (電極) specifically in order not to confuse this effect with the potato effect.While proving that trees can provide a source of power is a significant step, a key question remains: can the tiny voltage (

38、電壓) produced by a tree be used for anything useful? Now scientists are debating over how to use this power source for human benefits.The most practical thing is fire alarm for forest department, originating from the tree itself. Trees electric power can charge a battery. This battery in turn will be

39、 connected to a small sensor. This sensor will power a brief radio transmission (傳送). That radio signal will transport daily soil and air condition measurements to a network of much larger, solar powered Forest- Service environmental monitoring stations. Those sensors wilt also give out a crisis sig

41、 technology to a degree that would gain us a lot more fire protection, then wed look at a plan to purchase it for our nationwide infrastructure (基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施), which is huge.”Researchers have discovered that the greater the pH difference between the tree and the soil the more the energy will be produced. So

42、me researchers also admit that “tree power” isnt as practical as solar energy, but believe that the system could be scaled-up as a low-cost option for powering tree sensors that help detect environmental conditions or forest fires, Using the electronic output to keep track of a trees health is anoth

46、ment have become more obvious in recent years.Most scientists agree that efforts are necessary to protect our environment from further harm.As we know,the construction industry consumes a large quantity of energy and resources and creates a huge amount of pollution.So green buildings are in great ne

47、ed.The environmental benefits of building green include the protection of ecosystems and biodiversity（生物多樣性）,improved air and water quality,less waste flowing into streams and the protection of natural resources.Green buildings can also result in lower operating costs because they typically use less

48、 energy and fewer materials and improve indoor air quality,improving the health of people who live there.The process of building green includes technical and artistic planning with nature protection in mind.Building designs often reflect the surrounding environment and natural resources and use rene

49、wable building materials such as bamboo and straw.In addition,recycled resources found locally are used for green buildings,reducing the cost and air pollution associated with transporting materials long distances.Careful site selection is important to minimize（最小化）human effect on the surrounding en

50、vironment.For example,placing a structure in an area that allows it to take advantage of cool breezes（微風(fēng)）and sunlight can reduce energy use and expenses.More energy and expense are needed for larger buildings as well,so it is important to build small.Green roofs are another feature of green houses t

51、hat reduce energy use and cost.These roofs are partially or completely covered with plants,which helps to keep heating and cooling costs low,prevent water running off and deal with pollutants.Other features of green buildings often include energy and water protection,recycling and waste reduction.In

52、 addition,renewable energy sources such as solar power,waterpower and wind power are used for heat and electricity, which greatly reduces costs and decreases the influence on the environment.1、What can we know about green building?AProducing no waste.

55、I 1 knew I wanted to pursue writing as a career.Writing had basically 2 me when I was only 7 years old, 3 since that time, Id been bombarded(轟炸) by guidance counselors and career planners who all 4 me to have a back-up-plan in case writing didnt work out.Id never even 5 a different career path, so I

56、 was very 6 and worried. After much thought, I decided 7 would be my back-up-plan, and I signed up for a class through my high school.This 8 that every morning, I would serve as a teachers helper for my favorite 6th grade teacher, Mr. Ralston. Morning after morning, I showed up in Mr. Ralstons class

57、room and 9 papers for him.Sometimes, I even 10 a lesson or two. It was fun, and the students seemed to like me, so I was surprised when it came time for my 11 .Mr. Ralston looked me right in the eyes and asked, Do you really want to teach?Had I really been that 12 ? I thought.Dont misunderstand. You

58、ll do fine in teaching, he continued. But, is your 13 really in it?Not really, I 14 . I want to write. I want to write new stories and fiction and poetry and so much more. but Ive been told its tough to make it as a writer 15 I thought maybe I would teach and then use my summers 16 to pursue writing

59、.As I shared with Mr. Ralston my hopes, dreams and carefully plotted-out back-up plan, he smiled and said, Why are you preparing to 17 with this back-up plan? If you want to be a writer, go for it! Pursue writing!Mr. Ralstons 18 to follow my dreams was the little nudge(推動(dòng)) I decided to help me push

60、past my 19 of not making it as a writer and simply Go for it!Thats what an encouraging word will do when spoken in love in 20 season. So, Lets try and be like Mr. Ralston and speak that word of encouragement at just the right time and make a difference in someones life today.1、AevenBneverCalreadyDal
