21、ly found at the surface of the Earth. A liquid can be kept in an open container and (2)_it to the level of a free surface. A gas forms no free surface but (3)_to diffuse throughout the space available; it must (4)_be kept in a closed container, as (5)_a planets atmosphere. The distinction was a prom

22、inent feature of early theories (6)_ the phases of matter. In the nineteenth century, for example, one theory maintained that a liquid could be dissolved in a vapor without losing its identity, and another theory held that the two phases are (7)_different kinds of molecules(分子). The theories now pre

23、vailing (8)_a quite different approach by emphasizing what liquids and gases have in common. They are both forms of matter that have no permanent structure, and they both flow easily. They are fluids. The (9)_similarity of liquids and gases becomes clearly apparent when the temperature and pressure

24、are raised somewhat. (10)_a closed container partially filled with a liquid is heated. The liquid expands, or (11)_, becomes less dense; some of it evaporates. (12)_, the vapor above the liquid surface becomes denser as the evaporated molecules are added to it. The combination of temperature and pre

25、ssure (13)_the densities become equal is (14)_ the critical point. Above the critical point the liquid and the gas can no longer be (15)_; there is a single, undifferentiated fluid phase of uniform density.（分数：1.05）A.inB.onC.underD.beyondA.fillsB.be filledC.fillingD.to fillA.intendsB.tendsC.inclines

When he came to analyze their embarrassing lapses in a scientific report, he was surprised to f

42、ind that nearly all of them fell into a few groupings. Nor did the lapses appear to be entirely random. One of the women, for instance, on leaving her house for work one morning threw her dog her earrings and tried to fix a dog biscuit on her ear. The explanation for this is that the brain is like a

43、 computer, explains the professor. People program themselves to do certain activities regularly. It was the womans custom every morning to throw her dog two biscuits and then put on her earrings. But somehow the action got reversed in the program. About one in twenty of the incidents the volunteers

44、reported were these program assembly failures. Altogether the volunteers logged 433 unintentional actions that they found themselves doing-an average of twelve each. There appear to be peak periods in the day when we are at our zaniest, These are two hours some time between eight a.m. and noon, between four and six p.m. with a smaller peak between eight and ten p.m. Among men the peak seems to be when a changeover in brain programs occurs, as for instance between going to and from work.
