It

14、 was my mothers idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition.With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Bell

15、eville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was supper time, I walked back home. “How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked. “None.” “The corner of Bellev

16、ille and Union Avenues.”“What did you do?”“Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”“You just stood there?”“Didnt sell a single one.”“My God, Russell!”Uncle Allen put in, “Well, Ive decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickle (五分鎳幣). It was

17、the first nickle I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.One day, I told my mother

18、Id changed my mind. I didnt want to make a success in the magazine business.“If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “youll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she w

19、ould scold me.My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my fathers plain workmans life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful journalist as me woul

23、e writer in his family.BResearchers have found more evidence that suggests a relationship between races and rates(率) of lung cancer among smokers. A new study shows that black people and Native Hawaiians are more likely to develop lung cancer from smoking. It compared their risk to whites, Japanese-

24、Americans and Latinos. Researchers at the University of Southern California and the University of Hawaii did the new study. The New England Journal of Medicine published the findings. The eight-year research studied more than 180,000 people. They included present and former smokers and people who ne

25、ver smoked. Almost 2.000 people in the study developed lung cancer.Researchers say genetics(遺傳學(xué)) might help explain the racial and ethnic（種族的） differences. There could be differences in how peoples bodies react to smoke. But environmental influences, including the way people smoke, could also make a

26、 difference.African-Americans and Latinos in the study are reported smoking the fewest cigarettes per day. Whites are the heaviest smokers. But the scientists point out that blacks have been reported to breathe cigarette smoke more deeply than white smokers. This could fill their lungs with more of

27、the chemicals in tobacco that cause cancer. Scientists know that some diseases effect different groups differently. And some drug companies have begun to develop racially targeted(針對(duì)) medicines. Last June, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved a drug designed to treat heart failure

28、 in black patients. The name is BiDil. The agency called it a step toward the promise of personalized medicine. 61Which of the following orders is from higher to lower risk of having lung cancer?AWhitesNative HawaiiansBAfricansAmericansLatinosCAsiansNative HawaiiansD. AfricansAmericansNative Hawaiia

33、bon dioxide in the atmosphere. The lowering of the waterspH value is not great at the moment but could cause a serious threat to current ocean life if it continues, they warn. Ken Caldeira and Michael Wickett, from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, report their concerns in the journal Natu

34、re.Increasing use of oil fuels means more carbon dioxide is going into the air, and most of it will eventually be absorbed by seawater. Once in the water, it reacts to form carbonic acid. Scientists believe that the oceans have already become slightly more acidic over the last century. These researc

35、hers have tried to predict what will happen in the future by combining what we know about the history of the oceans with computer models of climate changeThis level of acidity will get much more extreme in the future if we continue releasing COZ into the atmosphere, said Dr Caldeira. And we predict

36、the amount of future acidity will exceed（超過(guò)）anything we have seen over the last several hundred million years, let alone perhaps after rare disastrous events such as asteroid（小1j-%+._) impacts” However, it is not absolutely clear what that means for ocean lifeMost organisms live near the surface, wh

37、ere the greatest pH change would be expected to occur, but deep-ocean life forms may be more sensitive to pH changesCoral reefs and other organisms whose shells contain calcium carbonate（小行星) may be particularly affected if the waters acidity levels keep going up, the team predict. They could find i

38、t much more difficult to build these structures in water with a lower pH. In recent years some people have suggested storing carbon dioxide from power stations in the deep ocean as a way of dealing with global warmingBut Dr Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be re-considered. Previously,

39、most experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good thing一because in releasing CO2 into the atmosphere we warm the planet, and when CO2, is absorbed by the ocean, it reduces the amount of greenhouse warming.”66The ocean is becoming more acidic due to A，the lower water pH value Bt

40、he warming atmosphereCthe higher level of COZ in the air Dthe increasing use of oil fuels67 According to Dr Caldeira, Aocean absorption of carbon dioxide is a good thing Bmore oil fuels will be used in the near future Cscientists may predict climate changes with computer models Dthe future situation

It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kit

44、chen a washing machine and a microwave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.Now, perhaps, more than ever before,

45、 people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or p

46、astimes. Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them. Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year.One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an int

47、ernational bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs, leaving their two children with a nanny. Most evenings Daniel wouldnt get home until eight or nine oclock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large

48、amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. “I always wanted to have a farm then,” says Daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. Its taken some getting used to, but its been worth it. We have to thi

49、nk twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think its made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier.Liz, however, is not quite sure. “I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. Im not really a country gi

50、rl, but I suppose Im gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all.”71The passage tells us that .Apeople sel

51、dom work long hours to make moneyBpeople hardly buy more things than necessaryCpeople are sure everything they own is in the right placeDpeople realize there is more to life than just making money72When Daniel was a reporter he _.Alived in central London Bdisliked his jobCmissed his children Dwas we

53、ple work long hours to earn their living.BTo make more money through hard work is the aim of peoples life.CLong hours of hard work occupy too much of peoples life.DPeople spent too much time and money eating meals.75The underlined word “downshifting” in the second paragraph refers to _.Arepairing yo
