The patient should be at rest when vital signs are measured.Vital signs reflect even minor changes in a person’s condition. They must be measured accurately (精确地).

We all hope it won’t happen to us, but the fact is about seven thousand people will die on our roads this year. That’s more than a hundred every week.No one expects to die in that way. But some people know that they have only a limited time to live: they are people suffering from conditions such as kidney disease. Almost as many people die of kidney failure as are killed on our roads.It’s the job of our kidneys to purify the blood. If the y stop working properly, what can we do? We must purify the blood somehow, if we are to stay alive. This can be done in one of two ways: we can either visit a hospital two or three times a week or attach ourselves to a kidney machine, or we can get a new pair of real kidneys. Both courses of action are far from easy.Kidney machines are extremely expensive and there are a limited number of them in our hospitals. The lucky ones who do receive this treatment have their lives extended, but being tied to regular hospital visits means that life is made very difficult. (207ws)71.

During their lifetime, it can be expected that of these 3000 about 23 will be murdered, 30 will die in traffic accidents, and nearly 750 will be killed by a smoking-related disease. The number of deaths attributed to cigarette smoking outweighs all other factors, whether voluntary or involuntary, as a cause of death. Since the later 1970s, when daily smoking among high school seniors reached 30 percent, smoking rates among youth have declined. While the decline is impressive, several important issues must be raised.First, in the past several years, smoking rates among youth have declined very little. Second, in the late 1970s, smoking among male high school seniors exceeded that among female by nearly 10 percent. The statistic is reversing. Third, several recent studies have indicate high school dropouts have excessively high smoking rates, as much as 75 percent.Finally, though significant declines in adolescent smoking have occurred in the past decade,no definite reasons for the decline exist. Within this context, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) began its current effort to determine the most effective measures to reduce smoking levels among youth. (212ws)76.

The reason for declining adolescent smoking is that______.[A] NCI has taken effective measures[B] smoking is prevented among high school seniors[C] there are many smokers who have died of cancer[D] none of these80. What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that_________.[A] smoking rates among youth have declined very little[B] there are now more female than male smokers among high school seniors[C] high smoking rates are due to the increase in wealth[D] smoking at high school are from low socio-economic backgroundsSection ⅤTranslation(Time—15 minutes)Directions:In this part, there is a paragraph consisting of 4 sentences for you to translate into Chinese.

These meanings of health have also changed over time. This change is no more evident than in Western society today, when notions of health and health promotion are being challenged and expanded in new ways.BFor much of recent Western history, health has been viewed in the physical sense only. That is, good health has been connected to the smooth mechanical operation of the body, while ill health has been attributed to a breakdown in this machine. Health in this sense has been defined as the absence of disease or illness and is seen in medical terms. According to this view, creating health for people means providing medical care to treat or prevent disease and illness. During this period, there was an emphasis on providing clean water, improved sanitation and housing.CIn the late 1940s the World Health Organisation challenged this physically and medically oriented view of health. They stated that "health is a complete state of physical, mental and social well-being and is not merely the absence of disease" (WHO, 1946). Health and the person were seen more holistically (mind/body/spirit) and not just in physical terms.DThe 1970s was a time of focusing on the prevention of disease and illness by emphasising the importance of the lifestyle and behaviour of the individual. Specific behaviours which were seen to increase risk of disease, such as smoking, lack of fitness and unhealthy eating habits, were targeted. Creating health meant providing not only medical health care, but health promotion programs and policies which would help people maintain healthy behaviours and lifestyles. While this individualistic healthy lifestyles approach to health worked for some (the wealthy members of society), people experiencing poverty, unemployment, underemployment or little control over the conditions of their daily lives benefited little from this approach. This was largely because both the healthy lifestyles approach and the medical approach to health largely ignored the social and environmental conditions affecting the health of people.EDuring the 1980s and 1990s there has been a growing swing away from seeing lifestyle risks as the root cause of poor health. While lifestyle factors still remain important, health is being viewed also in terms of the social, economic and environmental contexts in which people live. This broad approach to health is called the socio-ecological view of health. The broad socio-ecological view of health was endorsed at the first International Conference of Health Promotion held in 1986, Ottawa, Canada, where people from 38 countries agreed and declared that:"The fundamental conditions and resources for health are peace, shelter, education, food, a viable income,a stable eco-system, sustainable resources, social justice and equity. Improvement in health requires asecure foundation in these basic requirements."(WHO, 1986)It is clear from this statement that the creation of health is about much more than encouraging healthy individual behaviours and lifestyles and providing appropriate medical care. Therefore, the creation of health must include addressing issues such as poverty, pollution, urbanisation, natural resource depletion, social alienation and poor working conditions. The social, economic and environmental contexts which contribute to the creation of heath do not operate separately or independently of each other. Rather, they are interacting and interdependent, and it is the complex interrelationships between them which determine the conditions that promote health. A broad socio-ecological view of health suggests that the promotion of health must include a strong social, economic and environmental focus.FAt the Ottawa Conference in 1986, a charter was developed which outlined new directions for health promotion based on the socio-ecological view of health. This charter, known as the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, remains as the backbone of health action today. In exploring the scope of health promotion it states that:Good health is a major resource for social, economic and personal development and an important dimension of quality of life. Political, economic, social, cultural, environmental, behavioural and biological factors can all favour health or be harmful to it. (WHO, 1986)The Ottawa Charter brings practical meaning and action to this broad notion of health promotion. It presents fundamental strategies and approaches in achieving health for all. The overall philosophy of health promotion which guides these fundamental strategies and approaches is one of "enabling people to increase control over and to improve their health" (WHO, 1986).Answer the questions below using NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS from the passage for each answer.Write your answers in boxes 1-3 on your answer sheet.1.In which year did the World Health Organisation define health in terms of mental, physical and socialwell-being?______________________________________________________________________________________2.During which decade were lifestyle risks seen as the major contributors to poor health?______________________________________________________________________________________ the three broad areas which relate to people's health, according to the socio-ecological view of health.______________________________________________________________________________________Reading Passage 2Questions 4– 8Reading Passage 2 has six sections, A-F.Choose the correct heading for sections A-D and F from the list of headings below.Write the correct number i-ix in boxes 4-8.4.Section A ______5.Section B ______6.Section C ______7.Section D ______ExampleSection EVi 8.Section F ______Section AThe role of governments in environmental management is difficult but inescapable. Sometimes, the state tries to manage the resources it owns, and does so badly. Often, however, governments act in an even more harmful way. They actually subsidise the exploitation and consumption of natural resources. A whole range of policies, from farm-price support to protection for coal-mining, do environmental damage and (often) make no economic sense. Scrapping them offers a two-fold bonus: a cleanerenvironment and a more efficient economy. Growth and environmentalism can actually go hand in hand, if politicians have the courage to confront the vested interest that subsidies create.Section BNo activity affects more of the earth's surface than farming. It shapes a third of the planet's land area, notcounting Antarctica, and the proportion is rising. World food output per head has risen by 4 per cent between the 1970s and 1980s mainly as a result of increases in yields from land already in cultivation, but also because more land has been brought under the plough. Higher yields have been achieved by increased irrigation, better crop breeding, and a doubling in the use of pesticides and chemical fertilisers in the 1970s and 1980s.Section CAll these activities may have damaging environmental impacts. For example, land clearing for agriculture is the largest single cause of deforestation; chemical fertilisers and pesticides may contaminate water supplies; more intensive farming and the abandonment of fallow periods tend to exacerbate soil erosion; and the spread of monoculture and use of high-yielding varieties of crops have been accompanied by the disappearance of old varieties of food plants which might have provided some insurance against pests or diseases in future. Soil erosion threatens the productivity of land in both rich and poor countries. The United States, where the most careful measurements have been done, discovered in 1982 that about one-fifth of its farmland was losing topsoil at a rate likely to diminish the soil's productivity. The country subsequently embarked upon a program to convert 11 per cent of its cropped land to meadow or forest. Topsoil in India and China is vanishing much faster than in America.Section DGovernment policies have frequently compounded the environmental damage that farming can cause. In the rich countries, subsidies for growing crops and price supports for farm output drive up the price of land. The annual value of these subsidies is immense: about $250 billion, or more than all World Bank lending in the 1980s. To increase the output of crops per acre, a farmer's easiest option is to use more of the most readily available inputs: fertilisers and pesticides. Fertiliser use doubled in Denmark in the period 1960-1985 and increased in The Netherlands by 150 per cent. The quantity of pesticides applied has risen too: by 69 per cent in 1975-1984 in Denmark, for example, with a rise of 115 per cent in the frequency of application in the three years from 1981.In the late 1980s and early 1990s some efforts were made to reduce farm subsidies. The most dramatic example was that of New Zealand, which scrapped most farm support in 1984. A study of the environmental effects, conducted in 1993, found that the end of fertiliser subsidies had been followed by a fall in fertiliser use (a fall compounded by the decline in world commodity prices, which cut farm incomes). The removal of subsidies also stopped land-clearing and over-stocking, which in the past had been the principal causes of erosion. Farms began to diversify. The one kind of subsidy whose removal appeared to have been bad for the environment was the subsidy to manage soil erosion. Academic Reading sample task – Matching headingsIn less enlightened countries, and in the European Union, the trend has been to reduce rather than eliminate subsidies, and to introduce new payments to encourage farmers to treat their land in environmentally friendlier ways, or to leave it fallow. It may sound strange but such payments need to be higher than the existing incentives for farmers to grow food crops. Farmers, however, dislike being paid to do nothing. In several countries they have become interested in the possibility of using fuel produced from crop residues either as a replacement for petrol (as ethanol) or as fuel for power stations (as biomass). Such fuels produce far less carbon dioxide than coal or oil, and absorb carbon dioxide as they grow. They are therefore less likely to contribute to the greenhouse effect. But they are rarely competitive with fossil fuels unless subsidised - and growing them does no less environmental harm than other crops.Section EIn poor countries, governments aggravate other sorts of damage. Subsidies for pesticides and artificial fertilisers encourage farmers to use greater quantities than are needed to get the highest economic crop yield. A study by the International Rice Research Institute of pesticide use by farmers in South East Asia found that, with pest-resistant varieties of rice, even moderate applications of pesticide frequently cost farmers more than they saved. Such waste puts farmers on a chemical treadmill: bugs and weeds become resistant to poisons, so next year's poisons must be more lethal. One cost is to human health. Every year some 10,000 people die from pesticide poisoning, almost all of them in the developing countries, and another 400,000 become seriously ill. As for artificial fertilisers, their use world-wide increased by 40 per cent per unit of farmed land between the mid 1970s and late 1980s, mostly in the developing countries. Overuse of fertilisers may cause farmers to stop rotating crops or leaving their land fallow. That, in turn, may make soil erosion worse.Section FA result of the Uruguay Round of world trade negotiations is likely to be a reduction of 36 per cent in the average levels of farm subsidies paid by the rich countries in 1986-1990. Some of the world's food production will move from Western Europe to regions where subsidies are lower or non-existent, such as the former communist countries and parts of the developing world. Some environmentalists worry about this outcome. It will undoubtedly mean more pressure to convert natural habitat into farmland. But it will also have many desirable environmental effects. The intensity of farming in the rich world should decline, and the use of chemical inputs will diminish. Crops are more likely to be grown in the environments to which they are naturally suited. And more farmers in poor countries will have the money and the incentive to manage their land in ways that are sustainable in the long run. That is important. To feed an increasingly hungry world, farmers need every incentive to use their soil and water effectively and efficiently.Reading Passage 3[Note: This is an extract from an Academic Reading passage on the development of rockets. The text preceding this extract explored the slow development of the rocket and explained the principle of propulsion.]The invention of rockets is linked inextricably with the invention of 'black powder'. Most historians of technology credit the Chinese with its discovery. They base their belief on studies of Chinese writings or on the notebooks of early Europeans who settled in or made long visits to China to study its history and civilisation. It is probable that, some time in the tenth century, black powder was first compounded from its basic ingredients of saltpetre, charcoal and sulphur. But this does not mean that it was immediately used to propel rockets. By the thirteenth century, powder-propelled fire arrows had become rather common. The Chinese relied on this type of technological development to produce incendiary projectiles of many sorts, explosive grenades and possibly cannons to repel their enemies. One such weapon was the 'basket of fire' or, as directly translated from Chinese, the 'arrows like flying leopards'. The 0.7 metre-long arrows, each with a long tube of gunpowder attached near the point of each arrow, could be fired from a long, octagonal-shaped basket at the same time and had a range of 400 paces. Another weapon was the 'arrow as a flying sabre', which could be fired from crossbows. The rocket, placed in a similar position to other rocket-propelled arrows, was designed to increase the range. A smalliron weight was attached to the 1.5m bamboo shaft, just below the feathers, to increase the arrow's stability by moving the centre of gravity to a position below the rocket. At a similar time, the Arabs had developed the 'egg which moves and burns'. This 'egg' was apparently full of gunpowder and stabilised by a 1.5m tail. It was fired using two rockets attached to either side of this tail.It was not until the eighteenth century that Europe became seriously interested in the possibilities of using the rocket itself as a weapon of war and not just to propel other weapons. Prior to this, rockets were used only in pyrotechnic displays. The incentive for the more aggressive use of rockets came not from within the European continent but from far-away India, whose leaders had built up a corps of rocketeers and used rockets successfully against the British in the late eighteenth century. The Indian rockets used against the British were described by a British Captain serving in India as ‘an iron envelope about 200 millimetres long and 40 millimetres in diameter with sharp points at the top and a 3m-long bamboo guiding stick’. In the early nineteenth century the British began to experiment with incendiary barrage rockets. The British rocket differed from the Indian version in that it was completely encased in a stout, iron cylinder, terminating in a conical head, measuring one metre in diameter and having a stick almost five metres long and constructed in such a way that it could be firmly attached to the body of the rocket. The Americans developed a rocket, complete with its own launcher, to use against the Mexicans in the mid-nineteenth century. A long cylindrical tube was propped up by two sticks and fastened to the top of the launcher, thereby allowing the rockets to be inserted and lit from the other end. However, the results were sometimes not that impressive as the behaviour of the rockets in flight was less than predictable.Questions 9 – 12Look at the following items (Questions 9-12) and the list of groups below.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D.Text 1A pioneering study by Donald Apple Yard made the surprise sudden increase in the volume of traffic through an area affects a sudden increase in crime does. Apple yard observed this by fir house in San Francisco that looked much alike and had middle-class and working-class residents. The difference was that only 2,000 cars a day ran down Octavia in Apple yard‟s terminology while Gough Street (MEDIUM street) had 9,000 cars a day and Franklin Street (HEA VY street) had around 16,000 cars a day.Franklin Street often had as many cars in an hour as Octavia Street had in a day. Heavy traffic brought with it danger, noise, fumes, and soot, directly, and trash secondarily. That is, the cars didn‟t bring in much trash, but when trash accumulated, residents seldom picked it up. The cars, Apple yard determined, reduced the amount of territory residents felt responsible for. Noise was a constant intrusion into their homes. Many Franklin Street residents covered their doors and windows and spent most of their time in the rear of their houses. Most families with children had already left.Conditions on Octavia Street were much different. Residents picked up trash. They sat on their front steps and chatted with neighbors. They had three times as many friends and twice as many acquaintances as the people on Franklin.On Gough Street, residents said that the old feeling of community was disappearing as traffic increased. People were becoming more and more preoccupied with their own lives. A number of families had recently moved. And more were considering it. Those who were staying expressed deep regret at the destruction of their community.46.Appleyard‟s study focuses on the influence of ______.A. traffic volume on the residentsB. rate of crime on the neighborhoodC. social classes on the transportationD. degree of pollution on the environment47.Appleyard discovered that increase in the volume of traffic ______.A. made people more violentB. would lead to increase in crimeC. was accompanied by increase in crimeD. had the same effect on people as increase in crime48.The author‟s main purpose in the second paragraph is to ______.A. discuss the problem of handling trashB. suggest ways to cope with traffic problemsC. point out the disadvantages of heavy trafficD. propose an alternative system of transportation49.People on Gough Street ______.A. felt sorry that their block had been pulled downB. felt indifferent about people moving outC. thought their old community was goneD. thought mostly of themselves50.What can we learn about Franklin Street?A. It is not a nice neighborhood for childrenB. People often throw trash out as they drive throughC. People there have made friends with people on OctaviD. People there own twice as many cars as people on Gough StreetText 2Imagine, if you will, the average games player. What do you see A guy who never grew up Or a nervous 18-year-old pushing buttons on his controller, lost and alone in a violent onscreen world Sorry, you lose. The average gamer is starting to look pretty much like the average person. For the first time, according to a US poll commissioned by AOL Games, roughly half of those surveyed, ages 12 to 55, are tapping away at some kind of electronic game—whether on a PC, a cell phone or another handheld device—for an average of three hours every week.The games people play say a lot about who they are. Machines like the Xbox and PlayStation 2 are largely the territory of twenty-something men, who prefer to picture themselves as sports …stars and racing drivers. Men 50 and older prefer military games. Teenage girls are much more likely than boys to play games on their phone, while older women make up the majority of people playing card games such as Hearts on line.Is it a good thing, all this time spent on games Or is it as harmful as television, pulling people ever further from reality The AOL survey suggests some players are in denial about the extent of their habit. One in 10 gamers find it impossible to resist games; 1 in 4 admits to losing a night‟s sleep to play games; and another quarter has been too absorbed to have meals.But don‟t think we‟re all heading into a world with everyone plugged into, if not totally controlled by, his own game. Quite the contrary: gamers appear to be more engaged with reality than other kinds of couch potatoes. According to a comprehensive survey by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA-whose members, of course, want you to think video games are healthy), gamers spend an average of 23 hours a week volunteering and going to church, concerts, museums and other cultural events. More enthusiastic gamers who play 11 hours a week or more spend ever more time out in the cultural world (34 hours).51. The AOL survey finds that electronic games ______.A. do not present a violent onscreen worldB. no longer keep gamers from growing upC. are no longer exclusive to young peopleD. are not as popular with teenagers as before52.Who does the author say tend to identify themselves with the characters in the game?A. Teenage girlB. Older womenC. Men in their 20D. Men 50 and older53.When asked about the extent of their habit, some players ______.A. refused to provide an answer to this questionB. denied they were affected by electronic gamesC. wondered why they were asked such a questionD. stressed their interest in playing electronic games54.It can be inferred from the text that ______.A. electronic games are less harmful than televisionB. television viewers are more realistic than gamersC. television is more popular than electronic gamesD. gamers have less self-control than TV viewers55.According to the writer, the ESA members ______.A. have sufficient knowledge of gamesB. think their games are healthy productsC. serve as the role models for game playersD. are concerned about gamers' cultural activitiesText 3The ostrich, the largest bird in the world at present, lives in the drier regions of Africa outside the actual deserts. Because of its very long, powerful legs and the floating effect of its extended wings, it is able to run at great speed over considerable distances.The female ostrich normally produces about twenty eggs every rainy season. When the female ostrich begins to lay her eggs, however, she does not begin in her own nest. Instead she goes off in search of the nests of neighboring females and lays two or three eggs in each of them. By the time she has laid eight or nine eggs, she returns and lays the rest in her own nest.Because of the size of the eggs, the female ostrich cannot lay more than one every two days, so it takes her three weeks to finish laying in her own nest. During that period, she spends a lot of time away from her nest looking for food. And while she is off her nest, other females visit it to lay their eggs amongst hers. By the time she is ready to sit on the eggs to hatch them, there could be up to thirty eggs in her nest, over half of which are not her own.The female ostrich can comfortably cover only about twenty eggs when she is sitting on the nest so before settling down she pushes the surplus ten or so eggs out of the nest. The rejected eggs, however, never include any of her own. Each female is remarkably consistent in the size and shape of the eggs she produces, so it is not difficult for her to distinguish her own from those of strangers.Of all the eggs laid by a colony of ostriches, only a very small number hatch into young birds. There are times when nests are left unprotected, for there are too few males to sit on all the nests at night. Thus there are ample opportunities for their natural enemies to raid the nests and eat the eggs. In fact, nearly 80% of the nests are destroyed. But even if a particular female‟s nest suffers this fate, there is a good chance that one or two of her eggs will be hatched in the nest of one of her neighbors.56.We learn from the text that an ostrich can go a long distance at high speed as ______.A. it is a special kind of birdB. it lives in large desert areasC. it has special wings and legsD. it is the largest bird in the world57.Normally, in every rainy season, the female ostrich produces about ______.A.12 eggs in her nestB.18 eggs in her nestC.20 eggs in her nestD.30 eggs in her nest58.The female ostrich would push some of the eggs out of her nest because ______.A. she can only hatch her own eggsB. those eggs are unlikely to be hatchedC. those eggs are to be hatched by othersD. she can only hatch a limited number of eggs59.The female ostrich identifies her own eggs by their size and ______.A. colorB. numberC. shapeD. weight60.The female ostrich lays her eggs in her neighbors' nests most probably because ______.A. her nest -is not big enoughB. she cannot protect all her eggsC. she cannot tolerate all her eggsD. her nest is not comfortable enoughPart BDirections: Read the opinions given by five scholars on challenges facing today‟s single women. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each scholar (61 to 65) to one of the statements (A to G) given below.James TailorWhat the women I spoke with said was that they want a husband who is independent and dedicated to his career, but that he doesn‟t have to make a lot of money. The emphasi s was always on finding a best friend—a soul mate—someone you could tell all your troubles to and who would be supportive. So it doesn‟t seem to be the case that these women were looking for super high-achieving men.Grise LevisonI think that for women, as well as for men, the standard for someone who you‟d want to spend your life with depends much more today on emotional intimacy. It takes some trial and error and a pretty long and dedicated search to identify the kind of person who is emotionally matching you and who is able to communicate and listen to trouble talk.Marry BrownIn recent decades girls have been raised to be more competitive and stronger than they were in the past. Several women I talked to mentioned that in their life they felt that their intelligence or intellectual achievement seemed to work against them in their romantic relationships with men. However, most of the women I interviewed felt that there were some men "out there" who would be attracted to smart women. The problem was finding them.Donna SmithI think, for the women I talked to, their ultimate sense of what they want in life includes family and children, but they aren‟t willing to think about the fact that they therefore will probably have to give up some of their own individual pursuits and career goals. I think the definition of success includes both love and work, and that the challenge is how to arrange that in a particular order.Elizabeth BudyI think that people who have clone at least some of the things that are essential for a wise judgment about a partner are more likely to eventually end up in a stable marriage. It‟s also true that they‟re likely to marry someone who is similar to them in education and earning power, which means that those marriages are likely to have more money in them.Now match the name of each scholar (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements61.__________________[A] Career success is in fact not a disadvantage.62.__________________[B] The ability to choose a right partner ensures a stable marriage.63.__________________ [C] How to balance career with family is key to success.64.__________________ [D] The essential part of marriage is the union of soul.65.__________________ [E] Finding an emotionally intimate mate isn‟t a piece of cake.[F] Career success ensures a solid marriage.[G] Social assistance is needed for today‟s single women.IV Translation (10 Points)Direction: Please translate the following Chinese into English66.The substance does not dissolve in water _______________________________（不管是否加热）.67. Not only ___ （他向我收费过高）, but didn't do a good repair job.68. Your losses in trade this year are nothing ___ __ ____________________（与我相比）.69.

Don't bother carrying all those things, ___________________________________ （我本不想给你添许多麻烦）.75. __________________________________________________ （我不大想去参加那个聚会）, but I'd better put in an appearance.V.

Your friend Li Ming has written to invite you to go to his hometown together with him and youare willing to accept his invitation.

When a penguin wants to walk through its neighbor's ground, it must ask permission（允许）. If itdoes not do that, it will have to fight. Most of the time, penguins live on the water. They eat shellfish and look after their children carefully.All penguins are good parents — the male penguins are perhaps the best parents in the world. They walk in from the sea in the middle of the dark Antarctic water. They choose their wives in the dark. They can only hear them — not see them. Then the female penguins lay their eggs and go away for about two months. The males take care of the eggs. If the eggs get cold, there will be no chicks. There is no food. The snow falls heavily and the wind blows strongly—sometimes at 150 kilometers an hour. The penguins do not move. When the females return from the sea, they will not remember their husbands. It does not matter. Only one thing matters—the eggs. Male penguins never fight—unless a penguin leaves a chick for a minute. They then fight because they all want it. They are strange and wonderful birds.1. “. . . the male penguins are perhaps the best parents in the world. ”Here the word “male” means “______”in Chinese.A. 雄性的B. 壮实的C. 成年的D. ⼤腹便便的2.

Which of the following is not true？A. Female penguins often have their new husbands.B. Male penguins don't move even though the wind often blows strongly.C. Female penguins take care of the eggs.D. Male penguins use their ears to choose wives.BStrange things happen to time when you travel because the earth is divided into twenty-four zones（时区）, one hour apart（⼀时区相差⼀⼩时）. You can have days with more or fewer than twenty-four hours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic Ocean（⼤西洋）, your ship enters adifferent time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling west, you set your clock back, traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours.If you travel by ship across the Pacific Ocean（太平洋）, you cross the International Date Line（国际⽇期变更线）. By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins.When you cross the line, you change your calendar one full day, backward or forward. Traveling east today becomes yesterday. Traveling west, it is tomorrow.1. Strange things happen to time when you travel because ______.A. no day really has twenty-four hoursB. no one knows where time zones beginC. the earth is divided into time zonesD. in some places one day always has twenty-five hours2.
