39、as gone mash-up (混合) crazy.A new food combination that puts a hot dog and a hamburger together launched in July and has become a hit in Australia.The “hamdog”a hamburger with a hot dog sausage in itcomes in a bun (小面包) made in a special way. It holds an uncut hot dog in the middle and has a sliced b

40、urger on either side of it. The new invention also features lettuce, tomato, pickles, cheese and a variety of sauces.The mash-ups started when the “cronut” took 2013 by storm. New York baker Dominique Ansel mixed two pastriesa French croissant and an American doughnuttogether into a big, greasy trea

41、t.From there, hybrid (or: mixed) foods, containing the best of both worlds, went wild. With a combination of flavors (风味) and textures (口感), they created things that some said were better than the original. There was the “mega burger pizza”thick burger patties sandwiched between two big pizzas, firs

42、t made in Japan. And then there was the waffle taco, which uses waffles as taco shells for scrambled eggs, sausage, chicken with gravy and fruit with cream. A US restaurant called Quality Italian cut a wide, very thin slice of chicken, decorated it with cheese and tomato and called it a chicken pizz

43、a. When the craze came to the UK, a British cake called a tart (果馅饼) was mixed with the American chocolate brownie cake, resulting in the “townie”.For some, the queues of people who want to buy the hybrid foods are even harder to understand than the foods themselves. Last year, CNN reported that a g

44、roup of people in San Francisco in the US started lining up outside Mr. Holmes Bakehouse at 7 am, even at weekends, to get their hands on the latest foodie discoverythe “cruffin”. It is a cross between a croissant and a muffin.The only rule for dishes these days is that “there are no rules”, the USA

45、 Todays newspaper commented. “This anything-goes mentality (不受限制的心态) sees chefs ranging from small-town types to some of the biggest names in the industry satisfying their inner mad scientist by serving the craziest dishes imaginable.” Indeed, hybrid food fits the spirit of the times: Today, eaters

46、are a little bit of everything all at once. Maybe its time to make up your own combo dish. How about “broodles”bread rolled into noodles and dipped in jam and butter? Better yet, maybe you could just rename a classic. What about Shanghai soup dumplings? You could call them “souplings”！68. What was t

48、d foods are healthier than other foods.B. Hybrid foods started in the UK and then gradually spread to the US.C. Without rules to follow, hybrid foods challenge chefs creativity and imagination.D. Hybrid foods are popular because they are easy to make and taste better than the original foods.70. How

49、is the article mainly developed?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By analyzing causes and effects.D. By describing events in order of time.71. What is the authors attitude toward the rise of hybrid foods?A. Objective.B. Positive.C. Bored.D. Worried.C“Today, technical innovations rule

50、 our everyday life in many areas. New technologies, however, always are associated with risks and these are also seen by average persons,” says Christoph Bohmert, first author of the recently published study and researcher of the Science Communication Group of KITs Institute for German Studies. “It

51、is crucial to enable adequate communication between science and society, which does not only consider scientific findings, but also concerns of the population.” The study clearly showed that communication of risks may be complicated sometimes. Information on effective precautions was found to lead t

52、o an increased risk awareness by those who receive the information.In their study, the researchers analyzed communication about a technology that has become necessary in our life mobile communications and the electromagnetic fields (电磁场) on which it is based. All over the world, radiation (辐射) prote

53、ction authorities, such as the German Federal Office for Radiation Protection, communicate the present state of research into risks of electromagnetic fields as follows: Investigations made and all findings obtained so far do not allow any conclusions to be drawn with respect to mobile communication

54、s being a risk for human health. But, the experts continue, there still are knowledge gaps concerning long-term influences. Then, measures are recommended to reduce exposure of the individual to electromagnetic fields.It had been known from previous studies already that information on precautions ma

55、y increase worries. It had been suspected that people conclude from the recommendation of precautions that there really is a risk. This effect was not confirmed by the recent study. The scientists rather attributed (归因于) the increased worries to a lack of knowledge about the propagation (传播) of elec

56、tromagnetic fields.On the basis of the study, 1717 Australians were informed of the recommended precautions, together with one of six information brochures providing scientific background information. When test persons were given not only the recommendations, but also explained why the observation o

57、f these tips strongly reduces their exposure to electromagnetic fields, worries increased. For example, scientists explained to the test persons that telephone conversations with a headset largely reduce exposure. When a mobile phone is located ten centimeters instead of just one centimeter away fro

58、m the ear, the electric power absorbed by the ear is about one hundredth of the initial value. Hence, the own mobile phone usually causes an exposure that by far exceeds (超出) that of mobile communications stations that are generally referred to as “cellphone towers” While the scientists wanted to ex

59、plain the effectiveness of precautions, test persons mainly considered this information to be an indication of their mobile phone not the transmission towers being dangerous. As a result, they perceived increased risk potentials for telephone conversations with their mobile phones.“The study reveals

60、 that messages on precautions and information are a double-edged sword in terms of subjective risk awareness. Their use should be far better understood,” Boehmert says.72. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Information about technologies and their risks may have un

61、desired side effects.B. Mobile communications definitely do harm to peoples health in the long run.C. Observation of the precautions can help reduce the concerns of the publicD. Adequate information on effective precautions can relieve the concerns of the public73. According to the passage, we can c

62、onclude that the best way to relieve the inappropriate worries is to .A. enable the users to know better of science and technologyB. produce new electric products with a lower radiation valueC. provide the public with less information on effective precautionD. inform the public about the potential r

63、isks with more patience74. The word “precaution” (first appearing in paragraph 1) in bold letters has the closest meaning to .A. introductionB. intentionC. recommendationD. prevention75. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Science and Technology: A Double -edged SwordB.

65、 can be described as the overuse of the computer which continues despite serious negative consequences for personal, social or occupational functions. However, not all people who spend hours each day on the computer are considered addicted. There are many uses for computers and the Internet and in m

66、any cases, an individual may spend 6 or more hours in a day on the computer but still not be considered an addict. Therefore, there is no set number of hours that is considered a potential for computer addiction.But those who are suffering from anxiety and depression caused by stress at work, relati

67、onships or financial problems tend to become computer addicts. Some people become addicted mainly because they feel bored with everything and feel like there is nothing else to do.If one feels an intense desire to go online, play a computer game, or socialize as soon as he wakes up and before he goe

68、s to bed, he may have become an addict. Other symptoms include using the computer as the only source of entertainment, lying to his family and friends about the activities that he performs while on the computer. Some addicts possess anxious feelings when wanting to use the computer or knowing that t

69、ime on the computer is limited. Others may lose track of time while on the computer and spend more time on it than intended. The computer can also be used as a form of escapism from reality.Excessive computer use may result in the lack of face-to-face social interaction and an increasing amount of t

70、ime and money on hardware, software and computer-related activities. Computer addiction makes one neglect his work, school, or family obligations. He often fails at repeated efforts to control computer use. So its time to seek help for the sake of health.Counseling (心理辅导) or therapy can focus on tre

71、ating underlying mental health conditions that caused the addiction such as anxiety, depression, social trauma or other conditions. Many different options for group or community support are available to assist those addicts. Just getting out and interacting with others can be very rewarding to the c

72、omputer addict. Another method is to focus on new interests. For instance, a computer user might take part in a new gym membership, spend time at the movies with friends or go out for a walk. If a computer user does feel that he must go onto the computer, consider talking himself out of the computer

73、 use unless it is absolutely necessary. If he does go on the computer, he must make a plan for what he will do when on the computer, how long it will take and what time you will be off of the computer.Computer AddictionIntroductionComputer addiction refers to the overuse of the computer (76) of seri

On the one hand, there is no denying that the computer is currently the most efficient tool to meet the needs of their work or to entertain themselves. But o

85、n the other hand, many people admit that they are too much addicted to computers to maintain face-to-face contact with their friends and colleagues.Hence, its necessary for us to use computers in a reasonable way. After all, the computer is invented to connect you and me, and to bring convenience to our life rather than set a barrier to keep people beyond reach. (150词)
