11、 calories(卡路里) per hour,which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking,although fewer than running,which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour.However,race walking does not pound the body as much as running does,Dr.Norberg says.According to her research,runners h

35、。14.What will happen when a brainprint fails?A.A spare one will be ready beforehand.B.A new one will be set again.C.The users security will be leaked.D.The fingerprint record will replace it.答案B解析细节理解题。根据第四段中的“If the brainprint is compromisedlike what happened with the fingerprint recordsthen the sy

As the accents of people from Canada sound very similar to those of people from America,itll be easy to think tha

62、t they share the exact same language.However,Canadian English and American English share as many differences as they do similarities.Founded as a colony(殖民地) of France in the 1500s,Canada later became part of the British Empire,before gaining independence in 1867.Its connection to the former British

63、 Empire can be seen in the way it spells certain words.For example,many nouns use “our” endings instead of “or”,such as “colour” or “neighbour”.At the same time,its French influences can be seen through Canadian English words such as “toque”,a word from French used to describe a woolly hat worn in c

64、old weather.But thats not to say that Canadian English has no identity of its own.Many words that are used to describe everyday things by Canadian people may leave English speakers from other countries feeling confused.A “parkade”,for example,means a multi-level parking lot,while “runners” are what

66、glish the same language.However,they have some differences.On the one hand,Canadian English is connected to British English in spelling for some historical reasons.On the other hand,it is also influenced by French.To sum up,Canadian English is a unique language,thus giving Canadian people a sense of identity.
