But one more has just been added - a communications blackout caused by solar storms. After a period of calm within the Sun, scientist

22、s have detected the signs of a fresh cycle of sunspots that could peak in 2012, just in time for the arrival of the Olympic torch in London. Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosions that could throw billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth, causing stro

23、ng solar storms that could jam the telecommunications (通信 ) satellites and interact links sending five Olympic broadcast from London. “The Suns activity has a strong influence on the Earth. The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum which could affect the functions of communicatio

24、ns satellites,” said Professor Richard Harrison, head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire. At the peak of the cycle, violent outbursts called coronal mass ejections (日冕物质抛射 ) occur in the Suns atmosphere, throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged (带电 ) m

25、atter. “A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometers per hour. Such events can expose astronauts to a deadly amount, can disable satellites, cause power failures on Earth and disturb communications,” Professor Harrison added. The risk is

26、greatest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots. Next week in America, NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), which will take images of the Sun that are 10 times clearer than the most advanced t

27、elevisions available. The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares (太阳耀斑 ) and explosions as they occur. Professor Richard Holdaway, the labs director, said that the SDO should be able to provide early warning of a solar flare o

28、r explosion big enough to affect satellite communications on Earth “If we have advance warning, well be able to reduce the damage. What you dont want is things switching off for a week with no idea of whats caused the problem,” he said. 【小题 1】 The phrase underlined part in paragraph one most probabl

32、archers. Spending as little as $5 a day on someone else could significantly boost happiness, the team at the University of British Columbia and Harvard Business School found on Thursday. Their experiments on more than 630 Americans showed they were measurably happier when they spent money on others

33、 even if they thought spending the money on themselves would make them happier. “We wanted to test our theory that how people spend their money is at least as important as how much money they earn,” said Elizabeth Dunn, a psychologist at the University of British Columbia. They asked their 600 volu

34、nteers first to rate their general happiness, report their annual income and detail their monthly spending including bills, gifts for themselves, gifts for others and donations to charity. “Regardless of how much income each person made, those who spent money on others reported greater happiness, wh

35、ile those who spent more on themselves did not,” Dunn said in a statement. Dunns team also surveyed 16 employees at a company in Boston before and after they received an annual profit-sharing bonus of between $3,000 and $8,000. “Employees who devoted more of their bonus to pro-social spending experi

36、enced greater happiness after receiving the bonus, and the manner in which they spent that bonus was a more important predictor of their happiness than the size of the bonus itself,” they wrote in their report, published in the journal Science. “Finally, participants who were randomly (随机地 ) require

37、d to spend money on others experienced greater happiness than those required to spend money on themselves,” they said. They gave their volunteers $5 or $20 and half got clear instructions on how to spend it. Those who spent the money on someone or something else reported feeling happier about it. “T

38、hese findings suggest that very minor adjustment in spending allocations (分配 ) - as little as $5 - may be enough to produce real gains in happiness on a given day,” Dunn said. This could also explain why people are no happier even though US society is richer. “Indeed, although real incomes have incr

39、eased dramatically in recent decades, happiness levels have remained largely flat within developed countries across time,” they wrote. 【小题 1】 Dunes experiment on 630 Americans was to _. A help people make careful plans for their money B encourage people to be generous to others C see how to spend mo

40、ney is important to happiness D test whether $5 is enough to buy happiness 【小题 2】 What can we conclude according to the experiment A Happiness largely depends on the size of your bonus money. B Happiness, as a matter of fact, has nothing to do with money. C The more money you give away, the happier

41、person you will be. D Spending money for the good of society will make you happier. 【小题 3】 How many different ways are used by the researchers to test their theory A Two. B Three. C Four. D Five. 【小题 4】 The last sentence of the passage means _. A happiness does not necessary increase as money grows

42、B people in richer countries actually have more problems C fast economic growth has a bad effect on peoples life D great increase of income contributes to keeping happiness level stable 答案： 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 A LIDAC MAYNARD 11 Windrift Circle Methuen, MA 978 555 4539 JOB OBJECTIVE Se
