Directions: Read then following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET Ⅱ. ( 10 points)

Laws of nature are of two basic forms: (1) a law is Universal if it states that some conditions, so far as are known, in- variably are found together with certain other conditions; and (2) a law is probabilistic if it affirms that, on the average, a stated fraction of cases displaying a given condition will display a certain other condition as well. In either case, a law may be valid even though it obtains only under special circumstances or as a convenient approximation.

46) Moreover, a law of nature has no logical necessity; rather, it rests directly or indirectly upon the evidence of experience. Laws of universal form. must be distinguished from generalizations, such as "All chairs in this office are gray," which appear to be accidental. Generalizations, for example, cannot support counterfactual conditional statements such as "If this chair had been in my office, it would be gray" nor subjunctive conditionals such as "If this chair were put in my office, it would be gray." On the other hand, the statement "All planetary objects move in nearly elliptical paths about their star" does provide this support. All scientific laws appear to give similar results.

47) The class of universal statements that can be candidates for the status of laws, however, is determined at any time in history, by the theories of science current then.

Several positive attributes are commonly required of a natural law. Statements about things or events limited to one location or one date cannot be lawlike. Also, most scientists hold that the predicate must apply to evidence not used in deft- ring the law: though the law is founded upon experience, it must predict or help one to understand matters not included among these experiences. Finally, it is normally expected that o law will be explainable by more embracing laws or by some theory.

48) Thus t a regularity for which there are general theoretical grounds for expecting it will be more readily called a natural law than an empirical regularity that cannot be subsumed under more general laws or theories.

Universal laws are of several types. 49) Many assert a dependence between varying quantities measuring certain properties, as in the law that the pressure of a gas under steady temperature is inversely proportional to its volnme.

Others state that events occur in an invariant order, as in "Vertebrates always occur in the fossil record after the rise of invertebrates." Lastly, there are laws affirming that if an object is of a stated sort it will have certain observable properties. 50) Part of the reason for the ambiguity of the term law of nature lies in the temptation to apply the term only to statements of one of these sorts of laws, as in the claim that science deals solely with cause and effect relationships, when in fact all three kinds are equally valid.

Sleep
Sleep is part of a person's daily activity cycle .There are several different stages of sleep,and they too occur in cycles.______(46)
When you first drift off into slumber,your eyes will roll about a bit,your temperature will drop slightly,your muscles will relax,and your breathing will slow and become quite regular. Your brain waves slow down a bit too,with the alpha rhythm of rather fast waves predominating for the first few minutes.______(47)
For the next half hour or so,as you relax more and more,you will drift down through stage 2 and stage 3 sleep.______(48)
Then about 40 to 60 minutes after you lose consciousness you will have reached the deepest sleep of all.Your brain waves will show the large slow waves that are known as the delta rhythm.
This is stage 4 sleep.You do not remain at this deep fourth stage all night long,but instead about 80 minutes after you fall into slumber,your brain activity level will increase again slightly. ______(49)
Your eyes will begin to dart around under your closed eyelids as if you were loo-king at something occurring in front of you.______(50)
It is during REM sleep period,your body will soon relax again,your breathing will grow slow and regular once more,and you will slip gently back from stage 1 to stage 4 sleep-only to rise once again to the surface of near consciousness some 80 minutes later.

______(48)
A: The delta rhythm will disappear,to be replaced by the activity pattern of brain waves.
B: If you are an average sleeper,your sleep cycle is as follows.
C: In stage 4 sleep people tend to dream.
D: The lower your stage of sleep,the slower your brain waves will be.
E: This period of rapid eye movement lasts for some 8 to 15 minutes and is called REM sleep.
F: This is called stage 1 sleep.

答案:D
解析:
如果你是一个正常的睡眠者,你的睡眠循环会这样进行。本文以一个人的睡眠过程为例,说明睡眠的不同阶段和周期。从接下来的文章中看出以下就是描述睡眠的四个阶段和周期,因此这里选择B导入这个叙述。


这被称为第一阶段睡眠。根据接下来一句话:在随后约半小时内,你进一步放松,进入第二和第三阶段睡眠,可以推断该句之前描述的就是睡眠的第一阶段。


睡眠越深入,脑电波就越缓慢。接下来两句话说:大约在开始睡眠后的40~6O分钟,你将进入沉睡状态。这时脑电波表现为巨大的缓波,被称为δ节律。可以看出沉睡和脑电波的缓波为正比发生的,因此选D。


δ节律消失,并被脑电波的运动图形取代。该句前一句说:入睡后约80分钟左右,你的大脑运动水平会再度略有提高。δ节律被再次运动的脑电波图形取代,因此选A。


这种迅速的眼球运动持续约8~15分钟,这一阶段睡眠被称之为快速眼动(REM)睡眠。接下来一句说:在REM睡眠阶段,你的肢体会很快再度放松,呼吸也再次放慢并变得有节奏,你会轻松地从第一阶段滑入第四阶段睡眠——直到大约80分钟后重新接近清醒状态。这里的REM和前一句相衔接。

第8题:

During sleep, the fatigue (疲劳) of the body disappears and recuperation ( 恢复) begins. The tired mind gathers new energy. Once awake, the memory improves, and annoyance and problems are seen in a better perspective.

Some adults require little sleep; others need eight to ten hours in every twenty-four. Infants sleep sixteen to eighteen hours daily and, as they grow older, the amount gradually diminishes. Young students may need twelve hours; university students may need ten. A worker with a physically demanding job may also need ten, whereas an executive worker under great pressure may manage on six to eight. Many famous people are reputed to have required little sleep. Napoleon, Thomas Edison and Charles Darwin apparently averaged only four to six hours a night.

Whatever your individual need, you can be sure that by the age of thirty you will have slept for a total of more than twelve years. By that age you will also have developed a sleep routine: a favorite hour, a favorite bed, a favorite position, and a formula you need to follow in order to rest comfortably. Investigators have tried to find out how long a person can go without sleep. Several people have reached more than 115 hours ?nearly five days, whereas animals kept awake for from five to eight days have died of exhaustion. The limit for human beings is probably about a week.

1、The writer implies that _________

A、sleep is important for good mental and physical health

B、a light sleep is as restful as a deep sleep

C、memory is improved during sleep

D、sleep is relatively unimportant for human beings

2、From the amount of sleep Napoleon, Edison and Darwin required, we can infer that_______.

A、they were famous great men

B、 they were executive workers

C、 they were intelligent people

D、 they were involved in mentally demanding work

3、The amount of sleep required ________.

A、varies greatly from individual to individual

B、 depends on an individual''s age

C、 relates to an individual''s occupation

D、 all of the above.

4、According to the passage, the sleeping routine will be built at the age of _________.

A、10

B、20

C、30

D、40

5、From animal experiments, we can conclude that the final result of the lack of sleep is probably _________

A、mental illness

B、mental breakdown

C、susceptibility to illness

D、death

第9题:

At the first sight the planet Mars does not appear very welcome to any kind of life.It has very little oxygen and water,the temperature at night is below-50~Cand winds of 100 miles per hour cause severe dust storms.However,the surface of the planet seems to show that water flowed across it some time in the past,and it is believed that there is enough ice at the poles to cover the planet with water if it melts.Although there is no life on the Mars now,some scientists think that there may have been some form of life long time ago.At that time,the planet had active volcanoes;the atmosphere was thicker and warmer;and there was water.In fact,in some ways the Mars may have been similar to the Earth,where life exists.
Some people believe that the Mars could support life in the future if the right conditions were produced.The first step would be to warm the planet using certain gases which trap the Sun's heat in the planet's atmosphere.With warmth,water and carbon dioxide(二氧化碳),simple plants could begin to grow.These plants could slowly make the Mars more suitable for living.It is estimated that the whole process might take between 100,000 and 200,000 years.In the meantime,people could begin to live on the planet in special closed environments.They would provide a lot of useful information about conditions on the Mars and the problems connected with living there.

Which is the best title for this passage?

A.The Possibility of Life on the Mars
B.Future Conditions on the Mars
C.The Mars and the Earth
D.A Study of the Climate of the Mars

答案:A

答案:D
解析:
第一段大意是:人们最初对火星的印象是火星上不可能有生命。因为几乎没有氧气和水,并且夜间温度低于-50°C,同时还有每小时l00英里的风速引起的严重的沙尘暴。然而星球的表面却告诉我们,过去的某个时段水曾经从这里流过。人们相信极地有足够的冰,一旦融化便可覆盖整个星球。虽然现在火星上没有生命,但在过去很久很久以前,生命很有可能存在过。由此可看出,生命所需的条件——水和氧——在火星上和在地球上是相似的。所以选项D正确。而选项B说火星上有水是不对的。火星的极地有冰,只有当冰融化后才能使整个星球有水。
