week 13 原文及答案
Conversation 1:RACHEL WRIGHT: Penelope was born here under water six weeks ago. Her mother says after four difficult births, she wanted to try something different.JANE ATTENBOROUGH: My first four deliveries were quite complicated, with epidurals and lots of intervention, and this time I had the water birth and it was wonderful. She is a little darling, very calm, and I’m sure that’s part and parcel of having a baby in the water.RACHEL WRIGHT: Jane’s midwife, who helped bring Penelope into the world, has delivered many babies under water.JEAN PATERSON: A baby won’t breathe under water, there is an instinct, the diving instinct which, er, makes the baby hold its breath until it, until it surfaces.RACHEL WRIGHT: Babies at this Aqua Tots class don’t seem to have any problem holding their breath. Some of them are as young as three months old. And all appear to be able to swim above and below the water, even if they don’t always enjoy the experience. But not everyone believes this is instinctive. Dr Ruth Gilbert has done extensive research into water births, and says that although it’s hard to prove water births are more dangerous than other types, she thinks women should be aware of the risks.DR RUTH GILBERT: We know that there are cases of babies drowning of nearly drowning, and that’s because they, they breathe as they’re being delivered before they get to the surface of the water. Now, one way to try and reduce that risk is to bring the babies to the surface of the water very quickly, but we know ther e’s cases of that causing traction on the cord, and several cases of snap, the umbilical cord snapping during delivery.RACHEL WRIGHT: But despite these warnings, proponents of natural childbirth still believe all possible options should be available to expectant mothers.BELINDA PHIPPS: I think that every single woman should be offered the opportunity to use a birth pool, certainly in labour. Some women will then want to go on and have a baby, their baby born in water. I don’t know how many that’ll be, we don’t have the research, we don’t know that, but at least women need to have the choice.RACHEL WRIGHT: Every birth has an element of risk, but mothers like Jane here tell me that even if there is the tiniest risk of serious injury, the benefits of a water birth make it all well worth it.

It’s sweetening the fruit and even producing a rare sight in an English vineyard: bunches of fully ripened, lush, black grapes. But the important thing about this year’s weather is that it’s done to the flesh of the grape. The warm but relatively moist summer means ther e’s plenty of juice in them, and the hot sunny September means that that juice is very sweet. The two things, a recipe for a tasty and full-bodies wine.TOM HEAP: There are actually fewer bunches on the vine this year, Rainstorms in July spoiled some of the yond buds, so the plants put more effort into the fruit that remains. Nature has made more sugar which fermentation turns to alcohol.MAN 1: We’ve had a very, very god ripening period at the end of the year which has meant that we’ve got beautifully ripe grapes, lots of flavor, lots of character, and some of the wines that are in these tanks are going to rival some of the best wine produced in Europe this year.TOM HEAP: There’ll only be proof, of course, when it’s ready to drink next summer. TOM HEAP: And this is a typical proving ground. London’s Crescent Wine Bar doesn’t currently stock English wine. It’s going to be a hard sell.WOMAN 1: Er, I don’t think I’ve ever drunk English wine.MAN 2: Why would you buy a wine for yourself you know nothing about with a very bad reputation?WOMAN 2: You think of England, you think of ale, cider. You don’t think of wine. MAN 3: So if you give a bit of air, swirl it round …TOM HEAP: But the critics think our palates could be in for a surprise.MAN 3: On the dry white wines, we’re going to have wines with a lot more flavor, a lot more intensity, which is, which is wonderful. They’ll still be fresh and crisp but they’ll have a lot more fruit flavor, which is, which everybody likes. And this year we’re going to make some nice reds, which makes a change, so you’ll be able to have some good reds for once.TOM HEAP: Less than one per cent of the wine drunk in this country comes from our own vines. The growers’ fervent wish is that this good vintage will change the image of English wine and permanently boost consumption, even when the weather is not so kind.

TPassage 1:Since we've been discussing alternative fuels lately, I wanted to pass on to you some information I read about a new fuel that's been in the news a lot lately. It's called A-21. It's composed of water and a chemical known as naphtha. It seems to be a very promising fuel because it's much cleaner than the gasoline that we use today. That's not to say that it doesn't pollute, but it is cleaner. A-21 isn't like some other alternative fuels that require completely new types of engines. A-21 still works in regular, everyday combustion engines - like the ones in cars with onlyminor mechanical modifications. So changing over wouldn't be a big deal. You may doubt some of these claims as many researchers have. Some people feared that because it contains about 45% water, it would freeze in the winter. But a small amount of antifreeze was added to it, and that seems to have solved the problem. A-21 has recently undergone street tests in buses in Reno, Nevada. So far it seems to work just fine. This is a good thing, especially in Nevada, because the state government there has passed a law requiring that a large percentage of vehicles in Nevada run on alternative fuels. A-21 should help.Key:1. alternative2. composed3. promising4. pollute5. minor6. claims7. 45%8. added9. undergone 10. vehicles Passage 2:I'm glad you brought up the question of our investigations into the makeup of the Earth's interior. In fact, since this is the topic of your reading assignment for next time, let me spend these last few minutes of class talking about it. There were several important discoveries in the early part of this century that helped geologists develop a more accurate picture of the Earth's interior. The first key discovery had to do with seismic waves, remember they are the vibrations caused by earthquakes. Well, scientists found that they travelled thousands of miles through the Earth's interior. This finding enabled geologists to study the inner parts of the Earth. You see these studies revealed that these vibrations were of two types: compression or P waves andshear or S waves. And researchers found that P waves travel through both liquids and solids, while S waves travel only through solid matter. In 1906 a British geologist discovered that P waves slowed down at a certain depth but kept travelling deeper. On the other hand, S waves either disappeared or were reflected back, so he concluded that the depth marked the boundary between a solid mantle and a liquid core. Three years later another boundary was discovered - that between the mantle and the Earth's crust. There's still a lot to be learned about the Earth. For instance, geologists know that the core is hot. Evidence of this is the molten lava that flows out of volcanoes, but we're still not sure what the source of the heat is.Key:1. Earth's interior2. vibrations caused by earthquakes3. liquids and solids4. reflected back5. the source ofPassage 3:Our electric car is the way of the future．Automobile manufactures are under the pressure to develop cars that do not pollute．One powerful motive is a California law requiring that by the year 2000 10％of the new car sales in the state be so-called zero emission vehicles．These cars must put no pollutants whatsoever into the atmosphere．California is a huge market for the automobile companies．So they are working hard to meet these standards．So far the electric car seems to be the best alternative. So the biggest advantage of electric cars is that they don’t pollute．However they will be in competition with gas powered cars．And that’s where the weaknesses come out．The big problem is that the batteries in electric cars weigh a lot relative to the amount of power they deliver．For instance in one electric car the batteries weigh four hundred kilograms and they provide enough energy to go 250 km before recharging，which take 8 hours．Compare that to a moderately fuel efficient conventional car it can go 400--700 km on a tank of gas．And refilling takes just minutes．If there are other drains on an electric car’s batteries besides a motor，headlights，air-conditioning or a heater，its already limited range would be significantly reduced．So automobile engineers are trying to make more powerful batteries that would increase the car’s range and make them more attractive to buyers. Key:1. pollute2. whatsoever3. alternative4. competition5. weaknesses6. weigh7. efficient8. refilling9. significantly 10. range Passage 4:When you have a biscuit with your cup of tea do you dunk it? And if so, what's the perfect way to do it? That's the subject of today's Science in Action report. It may be hard to believe but scientists at the University of Bristol have been analyzing this question. And after a two-month study they devised a mathematical formula fordunking biscuits. So no more melting chocolate, or biscuit crumbs in the bottom of your cup, which is the fate of one in four biscuits that are dunked in tea, according to research by a biscuit manufacturer.Doughnut dunkers don't face the same problems because doughnuts are held together with an elastic net of protein gluten. This substance allows the doughnut to absorb liquid without breaking down its structure. The structure of a biscuit, however, is held together by sugar which melts when placed in hot tea or coffee.So what is the answer? The researchers, led by Dr Len Fisher, discovered that holding the biscuit in a horizontal position—or "flat-on"—has a significant effect on the amount of time that a biscuit can stay in hot liquid before falling apart. In fact this horizontal dunking results in a dunking time up to four times longer than traditional vertical dunking.What's the reason for this? It seems that the answer is related to diffusion, in other words, the length of time it takes for the liquid to penetrate the structure of the biscuit. Basically, it takes longer for the liquid to travel through the channels of a biscuit when it is laid flat on the surface of the liquid. Also the fact that when a biscuit is dunked horizontally, with the biscuit submerged in the liquid, and the chocolate coating staying out of the liquid, the chocolate helps hold the biscuit together. Another factor influencing the equation is the temperature of the tea – the hotter the tea, the faster the sugar melts.The researchers also found that by dunking a biscuit into tea or coffee, up to ten times more flavour is released than if the biscuit is eaten dry. So it's worth experimenting yourself. If you are wondering how you can perfect the horizontal dunk, the researchers have come up with an idea for a biscuit-holding device to make dunking biscuits easier. They are even now working on producing a table giving guidelines on dunking times for different types of biscuits.On that note, I think it's time to go off to the canteen for a tea break!Key:1. Check the true statements according to the passage.1. T2. F3. T4. T5. F6. T2. Complete the sentences.1. dunking biscuits2. held together3. absorb liquid4. travel through5. hold the biscuit6. producing a table。
