8、obes(微生物) and roots, which are now fed with compost tea (混合肥料) rather than pesticides and synthetic nitrogen (合成氮).The results have so surprised university administrators that what started as a one - acre pilot project in Harvard Yard has spread organic practices through 25 acres on the campus.“Our

9、goal is to be fully organic on the 80 acres that we maintain within the next two years. “ said Wayne Carbone, Harvards manager of landscape services.Harvards president, Drew Gilpin Faust, who last year started a university effort to reduce greenhouse gases by 30 percent by 2016, has adopted the orga

10、nic program at Elmwood, the Dresidents house on Brattle Street. Dr. Faust became interested by the effort last spring when she saw a display that the Harvard Yard Soils Restoration Project had set up outside her office.As the project proceeded, “I saw the impact, I was really excited,“ Dr. Faust sai

11、d. “I think its an integral part of the larger effort to advance sustainability at Harvard. “The organically grown grass on campus is now green from the microbes that feed the soil, eliminating the use of synthetic nitmgen, the base of most commercial fertilizers. No herbicides(除草剂)or pesticides are

12、 used, either. Roots reach eight inches into soil that was once so compacted the trees planted in it were dying.“At commencement(毕业典礼), rain or shine, we have 10,000 people here,“ Mr. Carbone said, gazing at the expanse where chairs are traditionally set in front of Memorial Church. “We get about 6,

13、000 to 8,000 people here every day. “But the microbial activity beneath their feet has now aerated(使生气勃勃) the soil. Tree roots can breathe because they are absorbing nutrients and water. Newly planted oaks outside Mass Hall, a few steps from Harvard Square, are thriving.Soil tests show the Dresence

14、not only of beneficial bacteria and fungi but also of the micro - organisms that feed on them, recycling nitrogen back into the soil.

19、)Successful Language Learners1 Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages. They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules or grammar, and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others. They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others, so what makes language learning

20、so much easier for them ? Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners, we may discover a few of the techniques which make language learning easier for them.2 First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on the book or the teacher;

21、they discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from mist

22、akes.3 Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a chance. They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake. They will try anything to comm

23、unicate. They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things; they are willing to make mistakes and try again. When communication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know th

24、e meaning of every word.4 Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn

25、from them. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn with it.5 What kind of language learner are you? If you are a successful language learner, you have probably been learning independently, actively, and purposefully. On the other hand, if your language l

26、earning has been less than successful, you might as well try some of the techniques outlined above. A. Talents to Learn a Language Successfully B. Learning a Language Purposefully C. Learning a Language Actively D. Learning a Language Independently E. Learning from Mistakes F. Learning to Think in t

30、idea of turning their roofs into mini power plants and cutting their electric bills. In 2008,33,500 rooftop solar systems were installed in the United States, a 63 percent increase over the amount of capacity installed in 2007. In California, the solar capital of country, the increase was 95 percent

31、Meanwhile ,the outlook for the other side of the solar industrythe large, centralized power plantsisnt so sunny. These megaprojectsacres of desert covered in thousands of solar panels sending electricitycontrolled mostly by utility companies that have had a monopoly over the countrys electricity gr

32、id, were supposed to be the key to the future of the solar industry. So far, theyre getting vastly outpaced by the decentralized rooftop approach. According to the Interstate Renewable Energy Councils 20062008 count, consumers added 522 megawatts to the grid; whereas utility Companies added just 96

33、megawatts.The disparity has utilities worried about loosing their grip on the countrys energy industry, and the $130 billion residential electricity market. In some cases, utilities are actually taking direct steps to thwart rooftop solar.“There is a tension between distributed solar generation and

34、utilities,“ says Adam Browning, executive director of The Vote Solar Initiative, a solar advocacy group in San Francisco. “Theyve had the energy pie to themselves for a century, and now facing a future where clean distributed energy will play a large part, theyre looking for ways to profit from it a

35、nd maintain control. People want solar panels on their roofs, so utilities should be working to make that happen rather than getting in the way. “says Browning.Its not hard to understand why a big utility might not like the idea of homes and buildings being covered in solar panels. If every building

36、 in America is generating its own solar energy, that throws a big wrench into their business model. But as most states have passed renewable - energy standards recently, mandating that a certain percentage of their energy come from renewable sources, utilities have become reluctant players in the so

37、lar game because, frankly, they have no choice. However, thanks to state and federal government subsidies, private sector can seize this opportunity to grow.（分数：15.00）(1).According to the passage, which statement about the rooftop solar systems installment in the U. S. can NOT be inferred?（分数：3.00）A

39、ve connection between economical situation and the amount of rooftop solar system installment.(2).According to the passage, which of the following statements is the main idea of the second paragraph?（分数：3.00）A.The total amount of electricity generated by the centralized solar power plants are more t

40、han that by the individual households.B.The management of centralized solar power plants is key to the development of solar industry, though now it is not that good,C.Large companies that have a monoply over an industry can lead to the inefficience in production.D.Its a great advancement in technolo

45、ves millions of customers around the world, shut down yesterday. Twitter, the micro - blogging service used by tens of millions of people, went off - line last month. It blamed the trouble on a malicious programmer in Russia who was trying to shut down the account of a user in neighboring Georgia. I

46、t is astonishing the local actions of a small number of programmers can bring an entire Interact service to its knees, but that have been the case.The Internet as it is set up now operates at three levels. The first is the servers that store data and content for use by customers. Google and other la

47、rge companies keep massive server farms. These are well -protected from outside programmers by sophisticated software, but clearly that does not always work. The protection devices may fail more and more often as hackers get more skillful.The second part of the Internet is the“ pipes“ that carry dat

48、a, video, e - mail messages, and text of websites from companies such as Google, Yahoo !, and Twitter, that make up Internet content and services to customers. Some of these“ pipe“ providers, specifically telecom and cable companies, are already complaining that the amount of data that they have to

49、move is rising too rapidly for them to accommodate. Video files, which aye particularly large, have posed significant problems to cable companies.The last piece of the Internet is the end user, the companies and consumers who have the PCs. Perversely, these PCs are also the tools by which hackers build malicious code that they send out to compromi
