11、w is a desirable annual competition for photographers from all comers of the UK and beyond.Mike Shepherd(2011)Skiddaw in WinterCumbria, EnglandIt was an extremely cold winters evening and freezing fog hung in the air. I climbed to the top of a small rise and realised that the mist was little more th

12、an a few feet deep, and though it was only a short climb, I found myself completely above it and looking at a wonderfully clear view of Skiddaw with the sum setting in the west.

16、up for a night that even coffee doesnt give you the energy that you need? You may have an energy drink, but the benefits of drinking one arc heavily outweighed by the risks.In the past years, more and more studies have found the deadly effects of energy drinks on our bodies. The sugar, caffeine and

17、energy supplements (补充)in energy drinks make up a deadly mixture of ingredients that can affect your heart function and send you to the hospital!A study by the University of Bonn, Germany found that frequent consumption of energy drinks can greatly change the way our heart functions. The study went

18、on to say that consuming energy drinks often causes significantly increased heart contractions in adults, which has the potential of putting you at risk for irregular heartbeats.It is possible that many people are unconscious of the alarming side effects of energy drinks because of the way they are

19、labelled. Most energy drinks contain between 80 milligrams to over 350 milligrams of caffeine, sugar and energy supplements. When an energy drink is marketed as a diet supplement, it may be distributed without a nutrition facts label, which would show the harmful supplements that are in the drink. H

20、owever, even if energy drinks are Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved, they dont have to show the number of supplements.Energy drinks may be widely available but they arent the healthiest or safest choice for your body.

24、 Dont Drink Energy Drinks B. Many People Enjoy Energy DrinksC. The Materials Energy Drinks ContainD. Energy Drinks Could Send You to HospitalCWho is a genius? This question has greatly interested humankind for centuries.Lets state clearly: Einstein was a genius. His face is almost the international

25、symbol for genius. But we want to go beyond one man and explore the nature of genius itself. Why is it that some people are so much more intelligent or creative than the rest of us? And who are they? In the sciences and arts, those praised as geniuses were most often white men, of European origin. P

26、erhaps this is not a surprise. Its said that history is written by the victors, and those victors set the standards for admission to the genius club. When contributions were made by geniuses outside the clubwomen, or people of a different color or beliefthey were unacknowledged and rejected by other

27、s.A study recently published by Science found that as young as age six, girls are less likely than boys to say that members of their gender(性别)are “really, really smart.” Even worse, the study found that girls act on that belief: Around age six they start to avoid activities said to be for children

28、who are “really, really smart.” Can our planet afford to have any great thinkers become discouraged and give up? It doesnt take a genius to know the answer: absolutely not.Heres the good news. In a wired world with constant global communication, were all positioned to see flashes of genius wherever

29、they appear. And the more we look, the more we will see that social factors(因素)like gender, race, and class do not determine the appearance of genius. As a writer says, future geniuses come from those with “intelligence, creativity, perseverance(毅力), and simple good fortune, who are able to change t

30、he world.”28. What does the author think of victors standards for joining the genius club?A. Theyre unfair.B. Theyre conservative.C. Theyre objective.D. Theyre strict.29. What can we infer about girls from the study in Science?A. They think themselves smart.B. They look up to great thinkers.C. They

31、see gender differences earlier than boys.D. They are likely to be influenced by social beliefs30. Why are more geniuses known to the public?A. Improved global communication.B. Less discrimination against women.C. Acceptance of victors concepts.D. Changes in peoples social positions.31. What is the b

32、est title for the text?A. Geniuses Think AlikeB. Genius Takes Many FormsC. Genius and IntelligenceD. Genius and LuckD Around 1975 books were written about strange occurrences in the Bermuda Triangle, a part of the Atlantic Ocean off the southeast coast of the U.S. They told the stories of planes and

33、 ships that disappeared for no understandable reason and were never found again. They told about ships which were found undamaged but with no one on them. According to the books, more than 1,000 people disappeared in the Triangle from 1945 to 1975. According to some writers, there were no natural ex

34、planations for many of the disappearances, so they suggested other explanations. For example, some strange and terrible power exists in the Triangle. According to another writer, people from space are living at the bottom of the Atlantic, and sometimes they need human sailors and airmen for their re

35、search. These ideas were not scientific, but they were good advertisements. The books about the Bermuda Triangle were immediate successes. However, the books give little evidence to support their unusual ideas. In addition, they ignore at least three important facts that suggest natural reasons for

36、many of the occurrences. First, messages from some of the ships and aircraft which later disappeared give us evidence of problems with navigational instruments. Similar stories are told by officers who were on duty on planets and ships which finally managed to come through the Triangle without disas

37、ter. Second, the weather in this part of the Atlantic Ocean is very unpredictable. Dangerous storms that can cause problems even for experienced pilots and sailors can begin suddenly and without warning. Finally, the Bermuda Triangle is very large, and many people, both experienced and inexperienced

38、, sail and fly through it. Perhaps the figure of 1,000 deaths in thirty years shocks some people, but, in fact, the figure is not unusual for an area of ocean that is so large and that is crossed by so many ships. The evidence which exists, therefore, supports one conclusion about Bermuda Triangle:

39、We do not need stories about people from space or strange unnatural powers to explain the disappearances.32. What was strange about the occurrences in the Bermuda according to Paragraph 1? A. Ships survived but with no passengers on board. B. Not only ships but planes went missing as well. C. There

40、were as many as 1,000 deaths from 1945 to 1975. D. They happened across none other than the Atlantic waters.33. Why were the books about Bermuda Triangle unscientific? A. The books were written by unknown writers. B. Nearly no supporting evidence was given. C. The books were written as advertisement

41、s. D. The writers pursued immediate success. 34. What reason for the disappearances may the author agree with? A. The sailors and airmen were taken away by strange species. B. People aboard could not stand the weather and died of diseases. C. The sailors and airmen were to blame as they were inexper

42、ienced. D. Navigational instruments going wrong caused the sink or the crash.35. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Bermuda Triangle Disappearances, Mystery Or Misreading? B. The Deadly Problems With Machines Of Last Century C. One Hundred Lives Lost In Thirty Years! D. New Discoveries In
