The most important of these engineers was Isambard Kingdom Brunel, whose work in shipping, bridge-building, and railway construction, to name just three fields, both challenged and motivated his colleagues. He was the driving force behind a number of the hugely ambitious projects, some of which resulted in works which are still in use today. The son of an engineer, Brunel apprenticed with his father at an early age on the building of the Thames Tunnel. At the age of just twenty, he became engineer in charge of the project. This impressive plan to bore under the Thames twice suffered two major disasters when the river broke through into the tunnel when the second breach(决⼝)occurred in 1872, Brunel was seriously injured during rescue operation and further work was halted. While recovering from his injuries, Brunel entered a design competition for a new bridge over the Avon Gorge near Clifton. The original judge of the competition was Thomas Telford, a leading civil engineer of his day, who rejected all entries to the competition in favor of his own design. After considerable scandal, a second contest was held and Brunel's design was accepted. For reasons of funding, however, exacerbated(加剧) by social unrest in Bristol, the project was abandoned in 1843 with only the towers completed. After Brunel’s death, it was decided to begin work on it again, partly so that the bridge could form a fitting memorial to the great engineer. The entire structure was finally completed in 1864. Today, the well-known Clifton Suspension Bridge is a symbol of Bristol, just as the Opera House is of Sydney. Originally intended only for horse-drawn traffic, the bridge now bears over four million motor vehicles a year. 16.【题⼲】Brunel was an important airplane engineer in Britain during the Industrial Revolution. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】C 【解析】 17.【题⼲】Brunel was involved less in railway construction than in other engineering fields. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】C 【解析】 18.【题⼲】Brunel worked only on shipping, bridge-building and railway construction. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】B 【解析】 19.【题⼲】Brunel work was largely ignored by his colleagues. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】B 【解析】 20.【题⼲】Some projects Brunel contributed to are still in use today. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】A 【解析】 21.【题⼲】Brunel became an apprentice with his father when he was very young. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】A 【解析】 22.【题⼲】The Thames Tunnel project was more difficult than any previous projects undertaken in Britain. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】C 【解析】 Geothermal(地热)Energy 1.Since heat naturally moves from hotter regions to cooler ones, the heat from the earth's center flows outwards towards the surface. In this way, it transfers to the next layer of rock. If the temperature is high enough, some of this rock melts and forms magma(岩浆). The magma ascends in its turn towards the earth's surface. It often remains well below the earth's surface, creating vast areas of hot rock. In such regions, there are deep cracks, which allow rainwater to descend underground. Some of the heated rainwater travels back up to the earth's surface where it will appear as a hot spring. However, if this ascending hot water reaches a layer of impermeable(不可渗透的)rock, it remains trapped, forming a geothermal reservoir. If geothermal reservoirs are close enough to the surface, they can be reached by drilling wells. Hot water and steam shoot up the wells naturally, and can be used to produce electricity in geothermal power plants. 2.A few geothermal power plants depend on dry-stem reservoirs which produce steam but little or no water. In these cases, the steam is piped up directly to provide the power to spin a turbine generator. The first geothermal power plant, constructed at Lardarello in Italy, was of this type, and is still producing electricity today. 3.Most currently operating geothermal power plants are either "flash" steam plants or binary(双重的)plants. Flash plants produce mainly hot water ranging in temperature from 300° to 700°Fahrenheit. This water is passed through one or two separators where released from the pressure of the underground reservoir, it "flashes" or boils into steam Again, the force of this steam provides the energy to spin the turbine and produce electricity. The geothermal water and steam are then reinjected directly back down into the earth to maintain the volume and pressure of the reservoir. Gradually they will be reheated and can then be used again. 4.A reservoir with temperatures below 300° Fahrenheit is not hot enough to flash steam but it can still be used to generate electricity in binary fluid. The steam from this is used to power the turbines. As in the flash steam plant, the geothermal water is recycled back into the reservoir. 23.【题⼲】Paragraph1_____ 【选项】 A.Dry steam plants B.Binary plants C.Origin of geothermal energy D.Generation of electricity E.Flash steam plants F.Recyclable water and steam 【答案】C 【解析】 24【题⼲】Paragraph2_____ 【选项】 A.Dry steam plants B.Binary plants C.Origin of geothermal energy D.Generation of electricity E.Flash steam plants F.Recyclable water and steam 【答案】A 【解析】 25【题⼲】Paragraph3_____ 【选项】 A.Dry steam plants B.Binary plants C.Origin of geothermal energy D.Generation of electricity E.Flash steam plants F.Recyclable water and steam 【答案】E 【解析】 26【题⼲】Paragraph4_____ 【选项】 A.Dry steam plants B.Binary plants C.Origin of geothermal energy D.Generation of electricity E.Flash steam plants F.Recyclable water and steam 【答案】F 【解析】 27.【题⼲】A geothermal reservoir is formed when hot water is trapped under _____. 【选项】 A.the energy to turn a turbine B.impermeable rock C.one or two separators D.turbine operator E.little or no water F.hot springs 【答案】B。

2016职称英语--理工A试题及部分答案

1.阅读（15分）Older Volcanic EruptionsVolcanoes were more destructive in ancient history, not because they were bigger, but because the carbon dioxide they released wiped out life with greater ease.Paul Wignall from the University of Leeds was investigating the link between volcanic eruptions and mass extinctions. Not all volcanic eruptions killed off large numbers of animals, but all the mass extinctions over the past 300 million years coincided with huge formations of volcanic rock. To his surprise, the older the massive volcanic eruptions were, the more damage they seemed to do. He calculated the "killing efficiency" for these volcanoes by comparing the proportion of life they killed off with the volume of lava that they produced. He found that size for size, older eruptions were at least 10 times as effective at wiping out life as their more recent rivals.The Permian extinction, for example, which happened 250 million years ago, is marked by floods of volcanic rock in Siberia that cover an area roughly the size of western Europe. Those volcanoes are thought to have pumped out about 10 gigatonnes of carbon as carbon dioxide. The global warming that followed wiped out 80 per cent of all marine genera at the time, and it took 5 million years for the planet to recover. Yet 60 million years ago, there was another huge amount of volcanic activity and global warming but no mass extinction. Some animals did disappear but things returned to normal within ten thousands of years. "The most recent ones hardly have an effect at all," Wignall says. He ignored the extinction which wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago, because many scientists believe it was primarily caused by the impact of an asteroid. He thinks that older volcanoes had more killing power because more recent life forms were better adapted to dealing with increased levels of CO2.Vincent Courtillot, director of the Paris Geophysical. Institute in France, says that Wignall‟s idea is provocative. But he says it is incredibly hard to do these sorts of calculations. He points out that the killing power of volcanic eruptions depends on how long they lasted. And it is impossible to tell whether the huge blasts lasted for thousands or millions of years. He also adds that it is difficult to estimate how much lava prehistoric volcanoes produced, and that lava volume may not necessarily correspond to carbon dioxide emissions.2.阅读（15分）Black Holes TriggerScientists have long understood that supermassive black holes weighing millions or billions of suns can tear apart stars that come too close.The black hotels gravity pulls harder on the nearest part of the star，an imbalance that pulls the star apart over a period of minutes or hours，once it gets close enough.Scientists say this Uneven pulling is not the only hazard facing the star.The strain of these unbalanced forces can also trigger a nuclear explosion powerful enough to destroy the star from within.Matthieu Brassart and Jean-Pierre Luminet of the Observatoire de Paris in Meudon，France1，carried out computer simulations of the final moments of such an unfortunate star…s life，as it veered towards a supermassive black hole.When the star gets close enough，the uneven forces flatten it into a pancake shape.Some previous studies had suggested this flattening would increase the density and temperature inside the star enough to trigger intense nuclear reactions that would tear it apart.But other studies had suggested that the picture would be complicated by shock waves generated during the flattening process and that no nuclear explosion should occur.The new simulations investigated the effects of shock waves in detail，and found that even when their effects are included，the conditions favor a nu clear explosion.“There will be an explosion of the star — it will be completely destroyed，” Brassart says. Although the explosion obliterates the star，it saves some of the star…s matter from beingdevoured by the black hole.The explosion is powerful enough to hurl much of the star‟s matter out of the black hole…s reach，he says.The devouring of stars by black holes may already have been observed，although at a much later stage.It is thought that several months after the event that rips the star apart，its matter starts swirling into the hole itself.It heats up as it does so，releasing ultraviolet light and X-rays.If stars disrupted near black holes really do explode，then they could in principle allow these events to be detected at a much earlier stage，says Jules Hatpern of Columbia University in New York，US2.“It may make it possible to see the disruption of that star immediately if it gets hot enough，” he says.Brassart agrees.“Perhaps it can be observed in the X-rays and gamma rays，but it…s something tha t needs to be more studied，” he says.Supernova researcher Chris Fryer of the Los Alamos National Laboratory in Los Alamos，New Mexico，US3，says the deaths of these stars are difficult to simulate，and he is not sure whether the researchers have proven their case that they explode in the process.3.阅读（12分）Researchers Discover Why Humans Began WalkingUpright研究人员发现为何人类开始直立行走Most of us walk and carry items in our hands every day. These are seemingly simple activities that the majority of us don’t question.But an international team of researchers, including Dr. Richmond from GW's Columbian College of Arts and Sciences，have discovered that human walking upright, may have originated millions of years ago as an adaptation to carrying scarce, high- quality resources. The team of researchers from the U. S., England, Japan and Portugal investigated the behavior of modern-day chimpanzees as they competed for food resources，in an effort to understand what ecological settings would lead a large ape —one that resembles the 6 million-year old ancestor we shared in common with living chimpanzees —to walk on two legs.我们大多数人每天行走并且用手携带东西。

The firststudy was conducted by the team in Kyoto University’s “ outdoor laboratory ” in a natural clearing in Bossou Forest. _48___The chimpanzees’ behavior was monitored in t hree situations: (a) when only oil palm nuts were available, (b) when a small number of coula nuts were available，and (c) when coula nuts were the majority available resource.When the rare coula nuts were available only in small numbers, the chimpanzees transported more at one time. Similarly, when coula nuts were the majority resource, __49____.In such high-petition settings，the frequency of cases in which the chimpanzees started moving on two legs increased by a factor of four. Not only was it obvious that bipedal movement allowed them to carry more of this precious resource, but also that they were actively trying to move as much as they could in one go by using everything available 一even their mouths.The second study, by Kimberley Hockings of Oxford Brookes University, was a 14-month study of Bossou chimpanzees crop-raiding, a situation in which they have to pete for rare and unpredictable Resources. __50___.A. Researchers allowed the wild chimpanzees access todifferent binations of two different types of nut — the oil palmnut，which is naturally widely available, and the coula nut, which is not.B. human walking on tou shdouf hiosu.2016年职称英语理工A答案C. But an international team of researchers, includingDr. Richmond from GW's Columbian College of Arts and Sciences，have discovered that human walking upright,may have originated millions of years ago as an adaptation to carrying scarce, high-quality resources.D. Standing on two legs allows them to carry much moreat one time because it frees up their hands.E.The chimpanzees regarded the coula nuts as amore highly-prized resource and peted for them more intensely.F. Here, 35 percent of the chimpanzees activity involvedsome sort of bipedal movement, and once again, this behavior appeared to be linkedto a clear attempt to carry as much as possible at one time.答案：CDAEF第6部分：完形填空(第51~65题，每题1分，共15分) Cell Phone Lets Your Secrets Out2016年职称英语理工A答案Your cell phone holds secrets about you. Besides the names and numbers that you've programmed into it, ______traces____(51) of your DNA linger (遗留) on the device according to a new study DNA is genetic (遗传的)material _____that_____ (52) appears in every cell.Like your fingerprint, your DNA is _____unique______ (53) to you——unless you have an identical twin. Scientists today analyze DNA in blood, saliva (唾液), or hair left ____behind_______ (54) at the scene of a crime. The results often help detectives identify ____criminals______ (55) and theirvictims. Your cellphone can reveal more about you ____than_____ (56) you mightthink.Meghan J. McFadden, a scientist at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, heard about a crime in which the suspect bled onto a cellphone and later dropped the device_____ (57). This made her wonder whether traces of DNA lingered on cell phones 一evenwhen no blood was___involved_____(58). She and colleague Margaret Wallace of the City University of New York analyzed the flip-open phones(翻盖手机)of10 volunteers. They used swabs (药签) to collect_____invisible___ (59) traces of the users from two parts of the phone: the outside, where the user ____holds_____(60) it, and the speaker which is placed at the user's earThe scientists cleaned the phones using a solution made mostly__of____(61) alcohol. The aim of washing was to remove all detectable traces of DNA. The owners got their phones back for another week. Then theresearchers ___returned________ (62) the phones and cleaned each phone oncemore.The scientists discovered DNA that_____belonged______(63) to the phone's speaker on each of the phones. Better samples were collected from the outside of each phone, but those swabs alsopicked up DNA that belonged to other people who had apparently also____handed______ (64) the phoneSurprisingly, DNA showed up even in swabs thatwere taken immediately after the phones were scrubbed. That suggests that washing won't remove all traces of ___evidence________ (65) from a criminal's device.So cell phones can now be added to the list of clues that can clinch (确定)a crime-scene investigation.

The Greatest of Victorian EngineersIn the hundred years up to 1860, the work of a small group of construction engineers carried forward the enormous social and economic change that we associate with the Industrial Revolution in Britain. The most important of these engineers was Isambard Kingdom Brunel, whose work in shipping, bridge-building, and railway construction, to name just three fields, both challenged and motivated his colleagues. He was the driving force behind a number of the hugely ambitious projects, some of which resulted in works which are still in use today.The son of an engineer, Brunel apprenticed with his father at an early age on the building of the Thames Tunnel. At the age of just twenty, he became engineer in charge of the project. This impressive plan to bore under the Thames twice suffered two major disasters when the river broke through into the tunnel when the second breach(决口)occurred in 1872, Brunel was seriously injured during rescue operation and further work was halted.While recovering from his injuries, Brunel entered a design competition for a new bridge over the Avon Gorge near Clifton. The original judge of the competition was Thomas Telford, a leading civil engineer of his day, who rejected all entries to the competition in favor of his own design. After considerable scandal, a second contest was held and Brunel's design was accepted. For reasons of funding, however, exacerbated(加剧) by social unrest in Bristol, the project was abandoned in 1843 with only the towers completed. After Brunel’s death, it was decided to begin work on it again, partly so that the bridge could form a fitting memorial to the great engineer. The entire structure was finally completed in 1864. Today, the well-known Clifton Suspension Bridge is a symbol of Bristol, just as the Opera House is of Sydney.Originally intended only for horse-drawn traffic, the bridge now bears over four million motor vehicles a year.16.Brunel was an important airplane engineer in Britain during the IndustrialA.
