9、ery.In 1945,some researchers realized that things commonly used to keep colours in meats and other food additives caused cancer.Yet,these additives remain in our food,and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings of foods are helpful or harmful.The additives which we eat are not all so d

10、irect.Farmers often give penicillin to their animals,and because of this,penicillin has been found in the milk of cows.Sometimes similar things are supplied to animals not for their health,but just to make a profit.The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on

17、cture(基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施)costs by 10 000 yuan.Last year,Shanghai saved 300 million cubic meters of water either from readjustment of industrial structure or the employment of new technology.“The aim is to arouse public awareness of the seriousness of water shortages,”Chen said.”The abundant surface water and amou

18、nt of rain of the city are so misleading that they result in improper use of water.”Shanghai lacks drinkable water.The Huangpu River,which supplies 80 percent of the city's drinkable water,is nearing exhaustion.The city,therefore,has been exploring new sources from the Yangtze River and growing

19、forests along it to conserve quality water.Besides penning regulations,the authority is popularizing technology among the public to efficiently cut the amount of water used.At present,the city has 600 000 family toilets,each using 13 liters of water per flush.These are to be renovated(整修)to use only

27、d eyes. At least，some people think so. If there were a man on the mooninstead of mountains and valleys that just look like the face of a manwhat would he be like?He would not be like anyone you know. He would not be like anyone anybody knows. If the man on the moon were bothered by too much heat or

28、cold the way Earth people are，he could not stay on the moon. The moon becomes very，very hot. It becomes as hot as boiling water. And the moon becomes very，very cold. It becomes colder than ice.Whatever part of the moon the sun shines on is hot and bright. The rest of the moon is cold and dark.If the

29、 man on the moon had to breathe to stay alive，he couldn't live on the moon because there's no air there. (He'd have to carry an oxygen tank，as astronauts do. )There's no food on the moon，either. Nothing growsnot even weeds. If the man on the moon liked to climb mountains，he would be

30、very happy. There are many high places there，such as the raised land around the holes，or craters，of the moon. Some of these rims are as tall as Earth's highest mountains. But if the man on the moon liked to swim，he would be unhappy. There is no water on the moonjust dust and rock. When you think

31、 of what it's like on the moon，you may wonder why it interests our scientists. One reason is that the moon is Earth's nearest neighborit is the easiest place in space to get to. Going back and forth between the moon and Earth，astronauts will get a lot of practice in space travel. Things lear

32、ned on moon trips will be of great help to astronauts who later take long，long trips to some of the planets. Scientists are also interested in the moon because it has no air. The air that surrounds Earth cuts down the view of the scientists who look at the stars through telescopes. A telescope on th

I could see a thousand memories flashed through h

43、er mind. So she picked up the pen and turning the paper over，this is what she wrote：For 9 months I carried you，growing inside me No ChargeFor the nights I sat up with you，doctored and prayed for you No ChargeFor the toys，food and clothes and wiping your nose No ChargeWhen you add it all up，the full

47、idD.the mother was angry with what the boy saidGComputers have many uses today：Computers can solve difficult problems and control other machines. Many people use small computers called calculators(計(jì)算器) to solve simple math problems quickly. Scientists use large computers to solve many problems at th

48、e same time. You can play games with computers，and some computers can help you learn languages. The Kurzweil Reading Machine is a special kind of computer. It can read books for blind people. To use the Kurzweil machine，a blind person can simply open the book and put it down on the scanner(掃描儀). The

49、 machine “reads” the words on the page. When one page is finished，the blind person turns the page and puts the book on the scanner again. The Kurzweil machine can read in a normal voice or in a special fast voice. It can read words with small letters and large letters. Blind people like the Kurzweil

50、 machine because they can “read” anything with it：newspapers，magazines，books，even typed letters. Many libraries now have Kurzweil machine for blind people to use.

52、zweil machine can help not only the blind but also the shortsighted children. HA young man named Charles Lyell had different ideas. He wrote a book about them called Principles of Geology (地質(zhì)學(xué)). The earth，according to Lyell，was not only thousands of years old，it was millions of years old.As to (關(guān)于)

53、the common belief that changes in the earths surface happen suddenly because of a single earthquake or flood，he said that this might happen once in a while，but usually these changes took place very slowly. He believed that the surface of the earth had been changing from the beginning of time. The ch

54、anges，he said，were caused by the long-term action of the winds and seas，and by forces such as volcanoes breaking out under the earths surface. Once in a great while he thought，a mountain might appear for the first time after an earthquake. But usually mountains would rise slowly and steadily. Profes

55、sor Henslow was interested in Lyells ideas，but he did not actually believe them. Charles Darwin could not make up his mind about them. But they set him thinking along lines which would later change the beliefs of thoughtful people all over the world.At Cambridge，Charles Darwin studied just enough to

56、 pass the examination，and received his college degree in 1831.During this time，he had become more and more interested in geology. At the end of the school year，he went to North Wales with one of his teachers to examine the rock formations (構(gòu)成) and to search for fossils (化石). Fossils are the remains

57、of ancient living things. They are usually found fixed in rocks in the earths crust (地殼). Fossils may be of animals，such as fish，insects，birds，or humans. They may be of plants from tiny leaves to huge trees. When a living creature dies，it usually decays (腐爛)or is eaten by animals. However，if it sinks into a riverbed (河床) or is quickly covered by the blowing sands of a desert storm，the bones are kept up in the earth. Over many years the soft inner parts of a bone dis
