25、nt our planet from overheating: move it to a cooler spot. All you have to do is send a few comets （彗星）in the direction of Earth, and its orbit will be changed. Our world will then be sent into a safer, colder part of the solar system. This idea for improving our climate comes from a group of US Nati

26、onal Aeronautics and Space Administration（ NASA）engineers and American astronomers. They say their plan could add another six billion years to the useful lifetime of our planeteffectively doubling its working life.The plan put forward by Dr Laughlin, and his colleagues Don Korycansky and Fred Adams,

27、 needs carefully directing a comet of asteroid（小行星）so that it passes close by our planet and sends some of its gravitational（引力的）energy to Earth. Earths orbital speed would increase as a result and we would move to a higher orbit away from the. Sun, Laughlin said.Engineers would then direct their co

28、met so that it passed close to Jupiter or Saturn. The comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets. Later its orbit would bring it back to Earth, and the process would be repeated.In the short term, the plan provides an ideal way to global warming, although the team was actually concer

29、ned with a much greater danger. The sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so seriously compromise our biosphere（生物圈） by cooking us. Thats why the group decided to try to save Earth.The plan has one or two worrying aspects, however. For a start, space engineers would have to be very

30、careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards Earth. The smallest miscalculation（误算） in orbit could fire it straight at Earthwith deadly results.There is also the question of the Moon. As the Scientific American magazine points out, if Earth was pushed out of its current position i

I had to go to the airport at 9:00 a. m. to pick up my Uncle Ali and take him to my fathers house. However, I was late because I was

51、ped. It has been pointed out that human beings, by agreement, can make anything stand for anything. Human beings have agreed, in the course of centuries of mutual（相互的）dependency， to let the various noises that they can produce with their lungs, throats, tongues, teeth, and lips systematically stand

52、for certain happenings in their nervous systems. We call that system of agreements language.There is no necessary connection between the symbols and that which it stands for. Just as social positions can be symbolized by feathers worn on the head, by gold on the watch chain, or by a thousand other t

53、hings according to the culture we live in, so the fact of being hungry can be symbolized by a thousand different noises according to the culture we live in. However obvious these facts may appear at first glance, they are actually not so obvious as they seem except when we take special pains to thin

54、k about the subject. Symbols and the things they stand for are independent of each other, yet we all have a way of feeling as if, and sometimes acting as if, there were necessary connections. For example, there are people who feel that foreign languages are unreasonable by nature; foreigners have su

55、ch funny names for things, and why cant they call things by their right names? This feeling exhibits itself most strongly in those English and American tourists who seem to believe that they can make the natives of any country understand English if they shout loud enough. Like the little boy who is

56、reported to have said: Pigs are called pigs because they are such dirty animals. They feel that the symbol is inherently（内在地）connected in some way with the things symbolized. 68.

60、ect to live with American families in the summer.Its not easy, even desperate. “We have many children left to place: 40 out of 75,” said Straub, who works for a Paris based foreign exchange programme called LEC. When exchange programmes started 50 years ago, more families were willing to help others

61、. For one thing, more mothers stayed home. But now, increasing numbers of women work outside the home. Exchange student programmes have struggled in recent years to sign up host families for the 30,000 teenagers who come from abroad every year to have some courses for one year in the United States.

62、as well as the thousands more who take part in summer programmes.School systems in many parts of the US, unhappy about accepting non taxpaying students, have also strictly limited the number of exchange students they accept.

74、Topic for Today”. I feel interested in the report on banning the use of cell-phones on campus in middle school.In fact, more students now come to school with cell-phones. My schoolmates have different opinions. Some think it is convenient to get in touch with others with the cell-phone, which also m

75、akes you feel safe especially in time of trouble. Besides, it is nice to enjoy various functions of different cell-phones.Others think differently. First, the cell-phone in not a must in school, as there are some IC phones there, making it easy to call others. Second, many often play e -games and send e-massages with their cell-phones, even in class, which will surely have bad effects on their study. Worse is to come, it will result in a great waste of time and money.In my opinion, the cell-phone is a useful tool in our daily life. But it doesnt mean we can use freely in school.
