27、e.I saw a television advertisement recently for a new product called an air sanitizer. A woman stood in her kitchen, spraying the empty space in front of her as though using Mace against an imaginary assailant. She appeared very determined. Where others are satisfied with antibacterial-laced sponges

28、, dish soaps, hand sanitizers and telephone wipes, here was a woman who sought to sterilize the air itself.As a casual student of microbiology, I find it hard to escape the absurdity here. This woman is, like any human being, home to hundreds of trillions of bacteria. Bacteria make up a solid third,

29、 by weight, of the contents of her intestines. If you were to sneak into her bathroom while she was showering-and based on my general impression of this woman from the advertisement, I dont recommend this-and secret away a teaspoon of the water at her feet, you would find some 820 billion bacteria.

30、Bacteria are unavoidably, inevitably-and, usually, utterly benignly-a part of our world.The fantasy of a germ-free home is not only absurd, but it is also largely pointless. Unless you share your home with someone very old, very young (under 6 months) or very ill, the few hundred bacteria on a count

31、ertop, doorknob or spoon pose no threat. The bacteria that cause food poisoning, the only significant rational bacterial worry in the average home, need to multiply into the thousands or millions before they can overwhelm your immune system and cause symptoms.The only way common food poisoning bacte

32、ria can manage this is to spend four or five hours reproducing at room temperature in something moist that you then eat. If you are worried about food poisoning, the best defense is the refrigerator. If you dont make a habit of eating perishable food that has been left out too long, dont worry about

33、 bacteria.Viruses are slightly different. You need only pick up a few virus particles to infect yourself with a cold or flu, and virus particles can survive on surfaces for days. So disinfecting the surfaces in the home should, in theory, reduce the chances of picking up a bug.In practice, the issue

34、 is less clear. A study by Dr. Elaine Larson at the Columbia School of Nursing called into question the usefulness of antibacterial products for the home. In New York, 224 households, each with at least one preschooler, were randomly assigned to two groups. One group used antibacterial cleaning, lau

35、ndry and hand-washing products. The other used ordinary products. For 48 weeks, the groups were monitored for seven symptoms of colds, flu and food poisoning-and found to he essentially the same. According to Dr. Gerbas research, an active adult touches an average of 300 surfaces every 30 minutes. Y

36、ou cannot win at this. You will become obsessive-compulsive. Just wash your hands with soap and water a few times a day, and leave it at that.Questions :（分数：5.00）(1).What is the main idea of this passage?A. We dont need to worry too much about bacteria everywhere in our life.B. Antibacterial product

37、s for the home are found to be effective.C. The TV advertisement the writer mentioned is a total failure.D. The existent bacteria pose a threat only to the very young and very old.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).We can infer from Paragraph 3 that _.A. healthy people should live separately from unhealthy member

38、s of the familyB. a germ-free home is not only possible, but significantC. unless you live with the vulnerable, it is pointless to sterilize the airD. our immune systems are too weak to fight against the food poisoning bacteria（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).According to the author, if you want to keep healthy

39、, you had better _.A. make the room dryB. keep the food in the refrigeratorC. wash your hands as much as possibleD. clean the surfaces with anti-bacterial products（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).From Paragraph 5 the author emphasizes _.A. the danger of virusesB. the common existence of virus particlesC. the sh

40、ort life span of virusesD. the difficulty in killing viruses（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).According to the author, one will become obsessive-compulsive _.A. if he washes his hands every time he touches a surfaceB. if he only washes his hands with soap and waterC. if he could not win over the bacteria in his

41、homeD. if he does not fight against the bacteria at home（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.十一、Section B(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.Canadian authorities relayed that suspicion to the U. S. Coast Guard, which dispatched a cutter to intercept the vessel. After a two-week chase, t

42、he cutters crew finally boarded the Cao Yu 6025, a stateless ship, south of Japan. In the hold, they found damning evidence: 110 tons of tuna and shark fins, and a drift gillnet almost 20 kilometers long-an indiscriminate killer of marine life banned on high seas under an international agreement.Out

43、 of sight, and mostly out of mind, the oceans are under siege. Scientists from around the world are reporting global disturbances in the seas that threaten to bring Richard Cashins grim warning home to every Canadian household. From the polar seas to the tropics, fish populations have collapsed or t

44、eeter on the brink. In a third of the Pacific, plankton that form the foundation of the marine food chain are vanishing. In every corner of the planet, increasing temperatures are obliterating some species, while driving others into unfamiliar waters. As science scrambles to make sense of uneven dat

45、a, evidence points to an alarming conclusion, the sea, the cradle of life, is dying.The killers are numerous. The most obvious, global over fishing, harvests 70 per cent of the worlds species faster than they can reproduce themselves. But the scientific community is not even sure that is the worst m

46、enace to the seas. Other major threats: human pollution, including an estimated 700 million gallons of toxic chemicals dumped into the sea each year, and global warming, widely attributed to industrial production of so-called greenhouse gases, which appears to be affecting ocean temperatures.Sharply

47、 pricier seafood is only the mildest consequence; others are far more serious. In many parts of the world, fishing jobs have disappeared. On Canadas East Coast, 26,000 unemployed former fish workers drew income from the federal governments Atlantic Ground fish Strategy-15,000 from Newfoundland alone

48、-until its $1.9 billion in funding ran out in August. Far worse, developing countries dependent on marine protein confront the risk of mass starvation. In many regions, rival national claims to the seas diminishing harvest hold potential for armed conflict. More terrifying still is the specter of ecological Armageddon, as the oceans lose the capacity to generate the oxygen on which life itself depends.For too many species, extinction has already come. Half a century ago, 600,000 barn door skate swam North Americas Atlantic seaboard. Never intentionally fished, they noneth
