He said it was interesting because it gave him an attractive view into a strangers life. Knaggy was inte
9、rested. He decided to pick grocery lists up wherever he found them.In 2000, Knaggy posted his collection of about 40 lists on the Internet.

10、rted working on a book about the lost lists.

15、tless lives and largely reduced the severity of injuries in crashes. Similar technology could greatly reduce broken hips resulting from a fall, something most seniors fear.Dry Robert Beckman and his start-up company, Active protective in Allentown, Pennsylvania, has developed a promising solution, a
16、 wearable airbag that can protect hip bones in the event of a fall. The idea was the result of Dry Beckmans years as a doctor at Temple University. He noticed how many elderly people were being brought into hospitals with broken hips due to falls, and how they often never completely recovered from t
17、he injuries. He started to ask what he could do for these people, and that was when he started trying to figure out whether there was a way of helping people who were at the highest risk of falling and suffering these kinds of injuries.The device is worn much like a regular belt, but on the outside
18、of the clothing, and it includes sensors that monitor the movement of hips. If the device detects that the person is falling, an airbag opens before the person hits the ground, cushioning the fall. When the wearer hits the ground, the bag reduces the force to the hip bones by 90 percent, enough to a
19、void the majority of hip injuries.With one out of every three people aged 65 and older suffering serious falls each year, Active protective has a big market for its wearable device. It also has the potential to sizably reduce hip-related health care expenses: Hip injuries among the elderly cost the
20、US health care system in 2012 $30 billion, which doesnt include the long-term care expenses associated with the high percentage of patients that can no longer live independently.8.

What does the author think of the Active protective airbag?A. It still needs improving.B. It has a promising future.C. It ma
23、y encourage seniors to do exercise.D. It may increase Americas spending on seniors.DAs the most common and popular forms of energy are being used up quickly, the search to find new sources of energy is underway. These sources of energy must be renewable and not cause the pollution that fossil fuels
24、do. Among them are solar energy, geothermal energy, wind energy and tidal energy.We can get endless solar energy from the sun. The main problem is to collect and store this energy in an economical way. We can receive energy from the sun with plates or cells. Collectors put on roofs of houses and oth
25、er buildings turn solar energy into heat. With this energy we can heat up water or the air inside. Solar cells transform the suns light directly into electricity.Geothermal power can be produced in places where water comes into contact with hot rock below the earths surface. The water that reaches t
26、hese hot areas turns into steam, which then produces electricity. Geothermal heat is an important source of energy in countries or regions that lie in volcanic areas, like Iceland, Italy, New Zealand or California.Windmills have been used for centuries to grind grain into flour between two large sto
27、nes or pump (用泵輸送) water out of areas that have been flooded. Today, large wind generators turn the power of wind into electricity. Such devices, however, can only be used in places with strong and constant (恒定的) winds. At the moment, though, costs are too high to produce wind energy on a big scale.
28、Tidal energy comes from the movement of ocean waves. One way to use the power of waves is to seal off a bay with a dam. When water moves into and out of the bay it turns a turbine (渦輪), which produces electricity. There are some coastal areas around the world where the difference between high and lo
29、w tide is up to 10 meters or more. Great Britain, Germany and France have coastal regions where such power can be created.12. The main problem about solar energy is how to _ .A. find the right place to fix plates or cells B. collect and store it economicallyC. use cells to store electricity D. cut d
30、own the costs for it13. Geothermal energy comes from _ .A. heat below the earths surface B. tides from the seaC. the wind D. the sun14. How can windmills be used?a. To grind grain into flour.b. To move a turbine by boiling water.c. To pump water out of flooded areas.d. To turn the power of wind into
31、 electricity.A. a, b, c B. a, b, d C. a, c, d D. b, c, d15. What does the text mainly tell us?A. Tidal energy was used in our daily life centuries ago.B. We can collect and store energy from the sun for free.C. Some kinds of energy mentioned in the text will cause air pollution.D. Environmentally-fr
32、iendly and renewable sources of energy are badly in need.二、語法填空Tom went to the seaside 1 (spend) his holiday last summer with his family. One day, he was swimming in the river when someone shouted, “Look out, there is a shark not far away!” 2 (hear) the shout, Tom was scared to death because he was
