Radiocarbon Dating Nowadays scientists can answer many questions about the past through a technique called radiocarbon （放射性碳）， or carbon-14， dating. One key to

7、understanding how and by something happened is to discover when it happened. Radiocarbon dating was developed in the late 1940s by physicist Willard F. Libby at he University of Chicago. An atom of ordinary carbon， called carbon-12， has six protons（中子） and six neutrons （质子） in its nucleus. Carbon-14

8、， or C-14， is a radioactive， unstable form of carbon that has two extra neutrons （原子核）。 It returns to a more stable form of carbon through a process called decay （衰减）。 This process involves the loss of he extra neutrons and energy from the nucleus. In Libbys radiocarbon dating technique， the weak ra

9、dioactive emissions （放射） from his decay process are counted by instruments such as a radiation detector and counter. He decay rate is used to determine the proportion of C-14 atoms in the sample being dated. Carbon-14 is produced in the Earths atmosphere when nitrogen （氮）-14， or N-14， interacts with

10、 cosmic rays （宇宙射线）。 Scientists believe since the Earth was formed， the mount of nitrogen in the atmosphere has remained constant. Consequently， C-14 formation is thought to occur at a constant rate. Now the ratio of C-14 to other carbon toms in the atmosphere is known. Most scientists agree that th

11、is ratio is useful for dating items back to at least 50，000 years. All life on Earth is made of organic molecules （分子） that contain carbon atoms coming from the atmosphere. So all living things have about the same ratio of C-14 atoms to other carbon atoms in their tissues （组织）。 Once an organism （有机体

12、） dies it tops taking in carbon in any form， and the C-14 already present begins to decay. Over time the amount of C-14 in the material decreases， and the ratio of C-14 to other carbon toms goes down. In terms of radiocarbon dating， the fewer C-14 atoms in a sample， the older that sample is. 16Nowad

It is thought to be abstract. It is a set of ski

16、lls rather than an object. Neither is there a single standard for judging a good or poor memory. There are a number of different ways in which a person may have a good memory. 2Memory is generally viewed as consisting of three stages： （1） acquisition refers to learning the material； （2） storage refe

17、rs to keeping the material in the brain until it is needed； and （3） retrieval （提取） refers to getting the material back out when it is needed. 3Memory consists of at least two different processes： short-term memory and long-term memory. Short-term memory has a limited capacity and a rapid forgetting

18、rate. Its capacity can be increased by chunking （构成大块）， or grouping separate bits of information into larger chunks. Long-term memory has an almost unlimited capacity. 4One measure of memory is recall， which requires you to produce information by searching the memory for it. In aided recall， you are

19、 given cues （提醒） to help you produce the information. In free-recall learning you recall the material in any order； in serial learning you recall it in the order it was presented； and in paired-associate learning you learn pairs of words so that when the first word is given you can recall the second

20、 word. A second measure of memory is recognition， in which you do not have to produce the information from memory， but must be able to identify it when it is presented to you. In a third measure of memory， relearning， the difference between how long it took to learn the material the first time and h

21、ow long it takes to learn it again indicates how much you remember. Relearning is generally a more sensitive measure of memory than is recognition because relearning shows retention （保持） while recognition does not. Recognition is generally a more sensitive measure than recall. 23Paragraph 1 24Paragr

24、理解（第3145题，每题3分，共45分） 下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。 第一篇 Light Night， Dark Stars Thousands of people around the globe step outside to gaze at their night sky. On a clear night， with no clouds， moonlight， or artificial lights to block the view， people can see more than 14，000 stars in the sky，

25、 says Dennis Ward， an astronomer （天文学家） with the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research （UCAR） in Boulder， Colo. But when people are surrounded by city lights， he says， theyre lucky to see 150 stars. If youve ever driven toward a big city at night and seen its glow from a great distance， yo

26、uve witnessed light pollution. It occurs when light from streetlights， office （照亮） the night buildings， signs， and other sources streams into space and illuminates sky. This haze （朦胧） of light makes many stars invisible to people on Earth. Even at night， big cities like New York glow from light poll

27、ution， making stargazing difficult. Dust and particles of pollution from factories and industries worsen the effects of light pollution. “If one city has a lot more light pollution than another，” Ward says， “that city will suffer the effects of light pollution on a much greater scale.” Hazy skies al

28、so make it far more difficult for astronomers to do their jobs. Cities are getting larger. Suburbs are growing in once dark， rural areas. Light from all this new development is increasingly obscuring （使变模糊） the faint （微弱旳） light given off by distant stars. And if scientists cant locate these objects

29、， they cant learn more about them. Light pollution doesnt only affect star visibility. It can harm wildlife too. Its clear that artificial light can attract animals， making them go off course. Theres increasing evidence， for example， that migrating （迁徙） birds use sunsets and sunrises to help find th

30、eir way， says Sydney Gauthreaux Jr.， a scientist at Clemson University in South Carolina. “When light occurs at night，” he says， “it has a very disruptive （破坏性旳） influence.” Sometimes birds fly into lighted towers， high-rises， and cables from radio and television towers. Experts estimate that millio

31、ns of birds die this way every year. 31On a clear night， people can see A150 stars. Bhundreds of stars. Cone thousand stars. Dmore than 14，000 stars. 32Light pollution occurs when Aartificial lights illuminate the night sky. B the moon lights up the night sky. C too many stars are visible in the nig

32、ht sky D streetlights are turned off. 33Nowadays even suburbs are becoming unsuitable for scientists to do their jobs because Athe night sky there is too dark. Bthe once dark areas are also polluted by lights. Cthese areas are not polluted by chemicals. Dthese areas are less developed. 34How does li

33、ght pollution affect wildlife？ AAnimals may go off course. BIt helps migrating birds find their homes. CAnimals are afraid to go out after sunset. DIt helps birds fall asleep. 35The title “Light Night， Dark Stars” means Athe night sky is brightly lit up and stars are black. Blights appear at night a

34、nd stars are seen in the dark. Ccity lights at night illuminate stars in the sky. Dcity lights illuminate the night sky， making stars invisible 第二篇 Shopping at Second-hand Clothing Stores When 33-year-old Pete Barth was in college， shopping at second-hand clothing stores was just something he did -

35、“like changing the tires on his car.” He looked at his budget， and decided he could save a lot of money by shopping for clothes at thrift shops. “Even new clothes are fairly disposable （用后即丢掉旳） and wear out after a couple of years，” Barth said. “In thrift shops， you can find some great stuff whose q

36、uality is better than new clothes.” Since then， Barth， who works at a Goodwill thrift shop in the US state of Florida， has found that there are all kinds of reasons for shopping for second-hand clothing. Some people like him， shop to save money. Some shop for a crazy-looking shirt. And some hop as a

37、 means of conserving energy and helping the environment. Pat Akins， an accountant at a Florida Salvation Army （SA） （救世军） thrift shop， said hat， for her， shopping at thrift shops is a way to help the environment. “When my daughter was little， we looked at it as recycling，” Akins said. “Also， why ay 3

38、0 dollars for a new coat when you can get another one for a lot less？” Akins said that the SA has shops all over the US - “some as big as department stores.” All of the clothes are donated （捐赠）， and when they have a surplus （盈余）， theyll have “stuff a bag” specials， where customers can fill a grocery

39、 sack with clothes for only or 10 dollars. Julia Slocum， 22， points out， however， that the huge amount of second-hand clothing in the US is the result of American wastefulness. Id say that second-hand stores are the result of our wasteful， materialistic culture，“ said Slocum， who works for a pro-con

40、servation organization， the Center for a New American Dream. ”Thrift shops prevent that waste from going to landfills （垃圾填埋场）； they give clothing a second life， provide cheaper clothing for those who cant afford to buy new ones and generate （生成） income for charities. They also provide a way for the

41、wealthy and middle classes to shed （挣脱） some of the guilt for their level of consumption.“ 36Which statement about Barth is NOT true？ A He is 33 years old now. B He works at a Goodwill thrift shop. C He works at a Salvation Army thrift shop. D He was a college student many years ago 37When Barth was

42、 a college student， he often shopped at thrift shops Ato save money. Bto save energy. Cto help the environment. Dto make friends with poor people. 38What does Akins do？ A She is a soldier. B She is an accountant. C She is a saleswoman D She is a road sweeper. 39Thrift shops can do everything EXCEPT

43、Agive clothing a second life. Bgenerate in come for charities. Cprovide cheaper clothes for the poor. Dstop rich people from wasting money 40The word “thrift” in paragraph 1 could be best replaced by Acharity. Bone dollar. Cfirst class. Dtwo dollars. 第三篇 Water The second most important constituent （

44、构成成分） of the biosphere （生物圈） is liquid water. This can only exist in a very narrow range of temperatures， since water freezes at 0 and boils at 100。 Life as we know it would only be possible on the surface of a planet which had temperatures somewhere within this narrow range. The earths supply of wa

45、ter probably remains fairly constant in quantity. The total quantity of water is not known very accurately， but it is about enough to cover the surface of the globe to a depth of about two and three-quarter kilometers. Most of it is in the form of the salt water of the oceans - about 97 per cent. The rest is fresh， but three-quarters of t
