13、f the Running Man, on Monday received the approval of Guinness World Records for a 30,000-mile six-year running.“It feels very, very good indeed,” Garside told Reuters shortly after hearing the news.“Im really happy about this; this run cost me everything,” said the former London policeman who was j
14、ailed in China, shot at in Russia and driven by armed men in Mexico and Panama during the journey which ended in New Delhi in 2003.The Guinness decision was a major proof for Garside, who has been dogged by accusations of cheating by endurance runners doubtful about a man who claimed to have run thr
15、ough jungles and across deserts with no support team. Others accused him of giving color to his efforts and of skipping whole sections of the run, something Garside disagrees to.Garside, who is planning a book and a film of his experiences, kept careful record, including eyewitness statements and mo
16、re than 300 hours of video footage which Guinness used to prove the run. “Its been a long process, but it was very well documented and it has now been recognised officially as the first fully authenticated run around the world,” said a spokeswoman for Guinness World Records.Garside, who described th
17、e run as “just like going for a jog every day and not going back home”, said it took him two years to recover physically and mentally from his efforts. He met his future wife while running through Venezuela in 2000. He said one of the hardest moments came in the Himalayas. “It was very cold and I wa

23、s not yet mentally recovered from his efforts against all hardships in the run.BThe UN Environment Programme says that rising temperatures could mean the end for some migrating animals. Migrating or mobile animals move through several environments as they travel away from the cold of winter to warme
24、r areas. Birds may fly from one part of the world to another, perhaps stopping at feeding grounds on the way. Whales and turtles cover vast areas of ocean. The report says that changes in any one of the places which these animals use can cause serious harm. “Obviously these animals have developed th
25、eir traveling patterns over thousands of years, but climate change is almost certain to be extreme over the next 25 to 50 years and it is extremely unlikely that these animals can change their habits fast enough,” said the report author Dr Robert Hepworth. Hardest hit by rising temperatures are turt
26、les. Scientists have found that at higher temperatures, turtles produce far more female eggs than male ones. In parts of Malaysia, turtle birthing sites are producing only females, the report says. It also provides evidence that some turtles are more likely to develop cancer as the waters get warmer
27、. With birds, the main problem is climate related damage to important areas at either end of the travels or at resting places along the way. About one-fifth of migrating birds are now in danger because of climate related changes including rising sea levels, land loss and more violent storms, the rep
28、ort concludes.Other animals picked out as particularly in danger include:the North Atlantic Right Whale, whose main food (tiny shrimp) is disturbed by the change in ocean flows and the White Nose Dolphin, which is out-competed by other kinds of dolphins in warmer waters. The report is not all bad ne
29、ws. Even with major climatic changes, protecting the environment can still help mobile animals to recover. We need governments to start taking action at the national and international level. The clock is running.” said Dr. Hepworth. And some animals are already adapting, with the report mentioning w
30、hales that are changing their feeding behaviors, finding new feeding grounds and new foods to eat.31. What is the main topic of the text? A. The effect of climate change on migrating animals.B. How animals are adapting to changes in temperature.C. The actions required to save migrating animals.D. Th
31、e need for government policies to prevent global warming.32. By saying “the clock is running” in the last paragraph, Dr. Hepworth means that_. A. it may be too late to save some animals B. it is time to start protecting the animalsC. there is not much time to solve the problem D. it takes time to co
32、mplete the actions33. According to the report, how will global warming affect turtles in the future?A. They will only produce female babies.B. Their food supply will gradually disappear.C. Some will suffer from higher rates of cancer.D. They will be in greater danger because of more violent storms.3
33、4. Which of the following is mentioned as a consequence of rising temperatures?A. More storms will affect the ability of whales to find their feeding grounds.B. 20 percent of all birds are likely to die out because of land loss.C. Migrating animals are likely to start adapting to the changes more qu
34、ickly.D. Warmer oceans will increase the competition between different kinds of dolphins.35. What can be inferred about turtles from the text?A. They are the only animals besides humans that suffer from cancer.B. They have traditionally lived longer than other ocean based animals.C. Those born near
35、a hotter area are more likely to be female.D. Most kinds of turtles are likely to die out within 50 years.CA 51-year-old Israeli woman who was left paralyzed and unable to communicate following a massive stroke has typed an emotional e-mail to her six children for the first time in seven years using
36、 a revolutionary device(装备,设备) that is controlled by sniffing, scientists say. The woman was so badly brain-damaged by the stroke that she cannot move any parts of her body or even blink her eyes in response to simple questions. She wrote the letter within a few days of being taught how to use the d
37、evice. The technology, developed by scientists at the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot, Israel, is now being used by other severely disabled people to surf the Internet and even control a wheelchair. “The most moving thing has been witnessing this technology give people a means of communication when th
38、ey havent had it,” said Noam Sobel, a neurobiologist at the institute, who helped develop the technology. The device works by detecting(察觉) slight changes in pressure that are produced when a person opens or closes their soft palate, the tissue at the roof of the mouth that controls air flow through
39、 the nose. Many patients with serious disabilities are still able to move their palate voluntarily, and so can use the device, said Sobel. When the sensor is connected to a computer, a person wearing the device can use sniffs alone to select letters on the screen and build up words, phrases and sent
40、ences. One patient, a 42-year-old man who was completely paralyzed after a car crash 18 years ago, used the sniff-controlled device to say he preferred it to a previous disability aid that performed a similar function by tracking his eye movement, writing that it was “more comfortable and easier to
41、use.”The speed at which patients can write with the new device varied between around 20 seconds and a minute for a single letter of the alphabet. The 1997 book, the Diving Bell and the Butterfly, was written by Jean-Dominique Bauby at a rate of roughly one word every two minutes. Bauby, who became p
42、aralyzed after suffering a stroke, selected letters by blinking his left eye. Sobel said he was anxious about what patients might write after being unable to move or communicate for so long, but he said none wrote about wanting to end their own lives. “I was afraid that the minute we could communica
43、te, all that might come out,” he said. “Whats important is giving the person the ability to express themselves.” 36. What does the underlined word “paralyzed” in paragraph 1 most probably mean?A. Unable to speak. B. Unable to blink. C. Unable to write. D. Unable to move. 37. Which of the following i
44、nformation is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. How the Israeli woman became paralyzed. B. Who developed the revolutionary device. C. How the device works. D. Examples of unsuccessful users.38. What can we infer from the passage?A. The Israeli woman was the first user of the sniffing device. B. There
45、are other inventions similar to the sniffing device. C. The sniffing device once helped a woman write a book. D. Some paralyzed people expressed their desire to die using the sniffing device. 39. We can most probably read the passage in _. A. a newspaperB. a course bookC. a science journalD. a sport
46、s magazine40. Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?A. Sniffing Device Is a New Israeli Invention B. Sniffing Device Helps Paralyzed People to CommunicateC. Sniffing Device Helps Paralyzed People to MoveD. Sniffing Device Invented by Noam SobelDOne day in my class, Maria share
47、d her feelings about money, Money worries me. I think I want to live without money because I hate it. I HATE MONEY. We were all touched by Marias words as they reminded us of the spiritual burdens that money managing can bring to us. After class I offered to help Maria deal with her financial proble
48、ms. She hesitated to accept my offer, and I could see from the expression on her face that she was afraid of what it might involve. I quickly promised her that I wouldnt make her do more than she was able to. I told her frankly that I didnt enjoy managing my money any more than she did hers and wouldn
