1、1 练习 1 Blood Drive at Civic Center The local university blood center had a blood drive today at the Civic Center auditorium. Almost 300 people showed up, but about 50 were turned away for various medical reasons. Fifty others left because the lines were moving so slowly. The event concluded at 6 pm,
2、 three hours after the scheduled close. It was a long day for everyone-administrators, nurses, and donors. But there were plenty of chairs and tables, and many people brought their own books, magazines, or newspapers. The first thing the donors had to do, of course, was fill out the donor registrati
3、on and screening form. When they finished filling out the form, they waited until a nurse called them to her desk. The average adult body contains 8 to 12 pints of blood. Donors can give one pint at a time. It takes your body 2 to 4 weeks to replace this amount. Most donors filled up the pint bag wi
4、thin 5 to 10 minutes. Before leaving, the donors received a sheet of instructions including: Do not lift any heavy objects for 12 hours. Leave your pressure bandage on for 23 hours. Do not smoke for at least 30 minutes. Avoid alcohol for the rest of the day. Do not do any laborious activity for 24 h
5、ours. “I wish I could hug and kiss all the volunteers that are here today,” said Martha, the blood center donor recruiter. “Many donors underestimate the importance of what theyre doing. They think it is no big deal, but it is a big deal. Their blood is actually saving lives, helping other people to
6、 live, which will lead to a more h armonious society. We cannot thank them enough for that, nor can the recipients.”Title: Blood drive at Civic Centre 71.Place/Where 72.200 73.Failing 74.registration 75.Amount 练习 2、Speaking in public is most people s least favorite thing. The reason is that we are a

11、can speak in public. Here are some of the lessons I have learned:Your audience is going to come away with one or two of your main ideas. One or two. Not ten or 20. If you can t express in a sentence or two what you intend to get across, then your speech is not focused well enough. And if you dont ha
12、ve a clear idea of what you want to say, theres no way your audience will.No matter how long or short your speech is, youve got to get your ducks in a rowhow you are going to open, what major points y ou want to make and how youre going to close.When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last
13、sentence first. When you know where youre headed, you can choose any route to get there. A strong close is critical: the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember. The standard length of a vaudeville act is usually 12 minutes. If all those performers singing and dancing thei

It is the first visit by a Chinese premier to Singapore in eight years. In the arrival statement, Wen said he is looking
15、forward to the meeting with Singing pore on ways to deepen East Asian cooperation between two nations so as to contribute to the building of a peaceful, harmonious relationship. Premier Wen Jiabao and Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong agreed to jointly develop an environmentally friendly city

24、 not programmable. The microprocessor card can add. delete, and deal with the information on the card, while a memory-chip card can only do one thing. Smart cards, unlike magnetic stripe cards, can do many different things and hold a lot of information. In this way, they do not need to get informati
25、on from a faraway place when they are used. Today, there are several kinds of smart cards, all of which are very popular in the market: IC (Integrated Circuit) Microprocessor Cards Microprocessor Cards (chip cards) offer a larger memory and better security than the traditional magnetic stripe cards
26、do. Chip cards can also hold data. These cards are used for many things. Thus, chips have been the main platform for cards that hold a secure digital identity. Some examples of these cards are: Cards that hold money. Cards that provide safe access to a network. Cards that allow setting stop boxes on
27、 televisions to remain safe from privacy. Optical Memory Cards Optical memory cards look like cards with a piece of CD on the top. Optical memory cards can store up to 4MB of data. But once written, the data can not be changed or removed. Thus, this type of card is good for keeping records, such as
28、medical files, driving records or travel histories. Today, these have no processors in them (although this is coming in the near future). While the cards are almost as cheap as chip cards, the card readers are expensive. Title: (1)_cards Types (3)_ Disadvantages Similarities IC Chip Cards A larger m

30、oise is damaging Children s HearingMichel become hooked on headphones in his early teens. He walked in the streets of Brooklyn day after day with his favorite music blasting directly into his ears. By his early 20s, Michel had lost much of his upper-range hearing. The Childrens Hearing Institute rep
31、orts that hearing loss among children and young adults is rising in the United States, and that one third of the damage is caused by noise. Surrounded By Noise We live in a noisy world. Young and old alike are beset by sounds over which we may have little or no control: power mowers, leaf blowers, s
32、now blowers, cars and house alarms, sirens, motorcycles, Jet Skis, loudspeakers, even movie previews. We attend rock concerts, weddings, parties and sports events at which the music is so loud you can hardly hear the person sitting next to you. At home, televisions, stereos and computer games are of
33、ten turned up so loud that listeners can not hear a doorbell or telephone. Many “modern ” restaurants have chosen noise enhancement instead of abatement( 减轻). Any time you need to shout to be heard by someone near you, your hearing is most likely to be in a decibel( 分贝) danger zone. As if environmen
34、tal noise were not enough, now we surround children with noisy toys and personal listening devices that can permanently damage their hearing. Toys that meet the safety standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials can produce sound up to 138 decibels, as loud as a jet plane taking off.
35、 Yet workplace rules require hearing protection for those exposed to noise above 85 decibels. Protecting Young Ears Before buying noisemaking toys, parents would do well to listen to how loud they are. If the toy comes with a volume control, monitor its use to make sure it is kept near the lowest le
36、vel. Consider returning gifts that make loud noises, disable the noise-making function. Or limit the use of noisy toys to outside play areas. Children who play computer games and stereo equipment should be warned to keep the volume down. Time spent in video arcades, where the noise level can be over
37、 110 decibels, should be strictly limited. Most iPods have a control that allow parents to set a maximum volume. Don t take children to loud action movies. If you do go and the sound seems deafening, ask the manager to turn down the volume or insist on you money back. Children who play in bands and
38、teenagers who use power tools, gardening equipment or guns should be made to wear hearing protection, available at sporting goods stores. The League for the Hard of Hearing urges parents to encourage participation in quiet activities, like reading, watching family-oriented films, doing puzzles, maki

41、tol, could be launched commercially in 2008, its developers said on Friday. If it catches on, the product will solve a major headache for local authorities around the world. The advantage of our Clean Gum is that it has a great taste, it is easy to remove and has the potential to be environmentally
42、degradable( 可降解性 ), said Terence Cosgrove, a professor of chemistry who helped found a company called Revolymer to commercialize the technology. Todays chewing gums are made from synthetic latex, which is resistant to the weather and is strongly adhesive. The new gum adds a special polymer to modify
43、 its properties, making it far less sticky. In two street trials, leading commercial gums remained stuck to the pavement three out or four times, while Clean Gum came away naturally in all cases, Revolymer said.

48、urth quality independent will that really makes effective self-management possible. It is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in agreement with them. It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon, to actively carry out the program we have developed through the other three qu
49、alities. The human will is an amazing thing. Time after time, it has overcome unbelievable difficulties. The Helen Kellers of this world give dramatic(给人深刻印象的 ) evidence to the value, the power of the independent will. But as we examine this quality in the context of effective self-management, we re
50、alize it s usually not the dramatic, the visible( 可见的 ), the once-in-a-lifetime, up-by-the-bootstraps(自立自强的 ) effort that brings lasting success. This special ability comes from learning how to use this great quality in the decisions we make every day. The degree to which we have developed our indep
