Researchers had no idea if anything would sprout (发芽)in the harsh moon dirt and wanted to see if it could be used to grow food by the next generation of lunar explorers.“After two days, they started to sprout!said Anna-Lisa Paul, a professor in Horticultural Sciences at the University of Florida, who took part in the experiment. "Everything sprouted. I can't tell you how astonished we were! Every plant - whether in a lunar sample or in a control (参照实验)-looked the same up until about day six.”Robert Feri of the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences and his colleagues planted thale cress (鼠耳芥)in moon soil returned w Apollo H's Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, and other moon walkers. All of the seeds sprouted. But within a week, the coarseness (粗糙度)and other properties of the lunar soil stressed the small, flowering weeds so much that they grew more slowly than seedlings planted in dirt from Earth. Most of the moon plants ended up stunted (发育不良).The longer the soil was exposed to tough cosmic radiation and solar wind on the moon, the worse the plants seemed to do. The Apollo II samples - exposed a couple of billion years longer to the elements -were the least likely for plants to grow, scientists said. One solution might be to use younger geologic spots on the moon, like lava flows, for digging up planting soil. The environment also could be improved, changing the nutrient mixture or adjusting the artificial lighting.NASA said the timing for such an experiment was right, with the space agency looking to put astronauts back on the moon in a few years. The ideal situation would be for future astronauts to make use of the endless supply of available local dirt for indoor planting rather than set up a hydroponic (水培的)or all-water system, scientists said. "The fact that anything grew means that we have a really good starting point, and now the question is how do we optimize and improve," said Sharmila Bhattacharya, NASA's program scientist for space biology.28. Why did the scientists try to grow plants in the lunar soil?A. To solve the food crisis in the world.B. To take more dirt from the moon.C. To prepare food for future astronauts.D. To send more explorers to the moon.29. What made the sprouted seeds end up stunted?A. The very low quality of the soil.B. They flowered too much soon.C. The polluted dirt on the earth.D. The change of artificial lighting.30. What kind of moon soil would probably be suitable for plant growth?A. The one receiving cosmic radiation.C. The one having a very long history.31. What will scientists most probably do next?A. Use available earth dirt for planting.C. Put more astronauts back on the moon.DB. The one exposed to solar wind.D. The one coming from lava flows.B. Continue to grow plants in lunar soil.D. Set up a hydroponic or all-water system.Yes, having a big name in science will help get your paper published, a new study confirms. Just 10% of reviewers of a test paper recommended acceptance when the only listed author was not well-known - but 59% endorsed the same paper when it carried the name of a Nobel winner.The study, which involved inviting hundreds of researchers to review an economics paper, is incredible", says Mario Malicki, a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University and editor-in-chief of Research Integrity and Peer Review, who was not involved in the research. "It is the largest randomized controlled trial we have seen on publication bias (发表偏见)For years, scientists complained about the Matthew effect, a term invented in 1968 by sociologists Robert Merton and Harriet Zuckerman to describe how high-status researchers tend to get disproportionately (不成比彳列土也)more of the same.But efforts to document such bias often had weaknesses, such as a small sample size or lack of randomization. To avoid those problems, a team led by Jurgen Huber of the University of Innsbruck emailed some 3300 researchers, asking whether they could review an economics study prepared for a real journal. The study had two authors, both at Chapman University: Vernon Smith, a 2002 Nobel winner in economics and Sabiou Inoua, one of Smith's former Ph.D. students. The potential peer reviewers were sent one of three descriptions of the paper. One named only Smith, listing him as the corresponding author, another, only Inoua; and a third, no author.Ultimately, 821 researchers agreed to review, the team reported last week at the International Congress on Peer Review and Scientific Publication in Chicago. Smith's fame appeared to influence the responses: Of the researchers given just his name, 38.5% accepted the invitation to review; the figures were 30.7% for those given no name and 28.5% for those given just Inoua's.32. Which can replace the underlined word “endorsed” in the first paragraph?C. Ignored.D. Tolerated.A. Approved of.B. Contradicted.33. What do we know about Mario Malicki?A. He once won a Nobel prize.B. He thinks highly of the study.C. He is an editor of Stanford University.D. He is the leader of the study.34. Why did Jurgen Huber and his team conduct a research?A. To prove the value of science publication.B. To overcome the weaknesses of previous studies.C. To review an economics study for a journal.D. To compare the achievement of two economists.35. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. Complaints about publication bias.B. The discovery of Matthew effect.C. Fame matters in publication.D. Ways to document publication bias.EFor some people, holiday travel includes more than simply hitting the road or braving the airport to get to their destination. 36 Whether it's a way to save money, or spend more time with loved ones - it's important to keep in mind that you're a guest in someone's home. Even if your host invited you to stay and said that it was “no trouble at all”, know that accommodating you does take time and energy (and possibly money). 37 Here are a few mistakes to avoid when you stay in someone's house.Showing up unannouncedThis really should go without saying and applies to any type of visit to someone's home, any time of the year - don't show up at someone's door unannounced, or assume you can stay with them without asking first. 38 , one of which is out of respect for your (potential) host, but if that's not motivation enough, consider the possibility that they may not be home, or have made other plans, and may not be able to put you up.Ignoring house rulesDid your host ask you to leave your outside shoes at the door? Or perhaps they requested that you say something in a low voice after 9 p.m.?39- which you should discuss with your host - you need tofollow their house rules. If they didn't mention any when you first arrived, initiate that conversation yourself.40When you're an overnight guest in a friend or relative's home, you cannot expect the service of a hotel. Your host is doing you a favor by letting you stay in their home for free, so don't expect someone to make your bed or clean up after you, meals prepared for you, or to have the run of the place.A. The least you can do is not make things harder for them.B. It also means overnight stays with family or friends.C. Unless you have an excuseD Acting like you're staying in a hotelE. If you have any unexpected arrangementF. There are many reasons not to do thisG. Keeping the room tidy as a guest第三部分:英语知识运用第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)Ritch Addison used to be shy.
