17、. potential三、阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）AA good dictionary is an invaluable tool for anyone who uses the written word and would like to do so more effectively and correctly. Are you familiar with the different kinds of dictionariesand the services that they offer? There are three basic types of dictiona

18、ry. They are the compact, historical and general purpose dictionary. The compact dictionary is, naturally, a small pocket sized variety that is somewhat limited in the range of its content. The historical dictionary, on the other hand, is an exhaustive(详尽的) volume that specializes in the history of

19、words. The general purpose dictionary lies somewhere between these two extremes. This is the most common version that people would have in their home and is the best for everyday use. The functions of the general purpose dictionary are to provide definitions, proper pronunciation, correct spelling a

20、nd derivations as well as any restrictive labels attached to a word. Lets consider these individually. Definitions: Many words have more than one meaning. By using a dictionary you can determine which meaning applies to the sentence you are considering. Some dictionaries help you out further by givi

21、ng sample phrases of correct word usages. Pronunciation: Pronunciation of a particular word may vary from region to region, so a dictionary will give the generally accepted pronunciation. Spelling: In the English language, words are often spelt quite differently to how they sound. Thank goodness for

22、 the spelling function of your dictionary. Derivations: The study of word origin is a feature of your dictionary. This can bring words to life, and expand your knowledge base in a fascinating way. Restrictive Labels: If a word is marked “colloquial” or “slang” it shouldnt be used in formal settings.

23、 These labels, then, signal caution in their use. Becoming more familiar with, and regularly consulting, your dictionary will open up the English language to you. As a result, your speech will be richer and your written communications more fluent. What a fine reward for a little time invested in you

38、 in size.Dogs have the largest variation in body size of any land animal, so researchers led by Elaine A. Ostrander of the National Human Genome Research Institute decided to look into the reasons why.Their finding of a section of genes that controls small size in dogs is reported in Fridays issue o

39、f the journal Science.Learning how growth is controlled can improve the understanding of cancer and other diseases caused by growth gone awry, Ostrander explained in a telephone interview.And the research adds to the basic study of variations, perhaps improving knowledge of the differences between p

40、eople, she added.K. Gordon Lark of the University of Utah, a co-author of the report, pointed out that dogs have 200 to 300 diseases in common with people, including high blood pressure, autoimmune diseases and cancer.“They also share our environment, so if there is an environmental influence that c
