It is said that it is a w

Furthermore, with (29) education from the age of five or six her role as chief educator of her children soon (30) It might be argued that the house-proud woman wo

That may be so, but it is certainly no longer necessary for a woman to (31) her whole life cooking, cleaning, mending and sewing.Apart from womens own happiness, the (32) of the community must be considered. Modem society cannot do well without the (33) th
21、at women can make in professions and other kinds of work. There is a serious shortage of nurses and teachers, to mention only two of the occupations followed by women. It is extremely (34) to give years of training at public expense only to have the qualified teacher or nurse marry after a year or t
22、wo and be lost forever to her profession. The training, it is true, will help her in duties as a mother, but if she continued to work, her service would be more widely useful. Many factories and shops, too, are largely (35) by women, many of them married. While here the question of training is not s
23、o important, industry and trade would be seriously short of staff if married women did not work.（分数：71.00）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_九、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)十、Section A(总题数：1，分数：35.50)Did you know that all human beings have a “comfort zone“ regul

This (36) varies in interesting ways among people of different cultures.Greeks, others of the Eastern Mediterranean, and many of those from South America (37) stand quite close together when they talk, often moving their faces even closer a
25、s they warm up in a conversation. North Americans find this awkward and often back away a few inches. Studies have found that they tend to feel most (38) at about 21 inches apart. In much of Asia and Africa, there is even more space between two speakers in conversation. This greater space subtly len
26、ds an air of (39) and respect. This matter of space is nearly always unconscious, but it is interesting to observe.This difference applies also to the closeness with which people sit together, the extent to which they lean over one another in conversation, how they move as they argue or make an emph

In the United States, for example, people try to keep their bodies (40) even in a crowded elevator; in Paris they take it as it comes!Although North Americans have a relatively wide “comfort zone“ for talking, they (41) a great deal with their handsnot only with gesture but also with tou

Microscopi
31、c organisms settle to the seafloor and accumulate in marine mud. The organic matter may partially decompose, using up the dissolved oxygen in the sediment. As soon as the oxygen is gone, decay stops and the remaining organic matter is preserved.B) Continued sedimentationthe process of deposits settl
32、ing on the sea bottomburies the organic matter and subjects it to higher temperatures and pressures, which convert the organic matter to oil and gas. As muddy sediments are pressed together, the gas and small droplets of oil may be squeezed out of the mud and may move into sandy layers nearby. Over
33、long periods of time ( millions of years), accumulations of gas and oil can collect in the sandy layers. Both oil and gas are less dense than water, so they generally tend to rise upward through water-saturated rock and sediment.C) Oil pools are valuable underground accumulations of oil, and oil fie
34、lds are regions underlain by one or more oil pools. When an oil pool or field has been discovered, wells are drilled into the ground. Permanent towers, called derricks, used to be built to handle the long sections of drilling pipe. Now portable drilling machines are set up and are then dismantled an
35、d removed. When the well reaches a pool, oil usually rises up the well because of its density difference with water beneath it or because of the pressure of expanding gas trapped above it. Although this rise of oil is almost always carefully controlled today, spouts of oil, or gushers, were common i
36、n the past. Gas pressure gradually dies out, and oil is pumped from the well. Water or steam may be pumped down adjacent wells to help push the oil out. At a refinery, the crude oil from underground is separated into natural gas, gasoline, kerosene, and various oils. Petrochemicals such as dyes, fer
37、tilizer, and plastic are also manufactured from the petroleum.D) As oil becomes increasingly difficult to find, the search for it is extended into more hostile environments. The development of the oil field on the North Slope of Alaska and the construction of the Alaska pipeline are examples of the
38、great expense and difficulty involved in new oil discoveries. Offshore drilling platforms extend the search for oil to the oceans continental shelvesthose gently sloping submarine regions at the edges of the continents. More than one-quarter of the worlds oil and almost one-fifth of the worlds natur
39、al gas come from offshore, even though offshore drilling is six to seven times more expensive than drilling on land. A significant part of this oil and gas comes from under the North Sea between Great Britain and Norway.E) Of course, there is far more oil underground than can be recovered. It may be
40、 in a pool too small or too far from a potential market to justify the expense of drilling. Some oil lies under regions where drilling is forbidden, such as national parks or other public lands. Even given the best extraction techniques, only about 30 to 40 percent of the oil in a given pool can be
41、brought to the surface. The rest is far too difficult to extract and has to remain underground.F) Moreover, getting petroleum out of the ground and from under the sea and to the consumer can create environmental problems anywhere along the line. Pipelines carrying oil can be broken by faults or land
42、slides, causing serious oil spills. Spillage from huge oil-carrying cargo ships, called tankers, involved in collisions or accidental groundings (such as the one off Alaska in 1989) can create oil slicks at sea. Offshore platforms may also lose oil, creating oil slicks that drift ashore and foul the
43、 beaches, harming the environment. Sometimes, the ground at an oil field may subside as oil is removed. The Wilmington field near Long Beach, California, has subsided nine meters in 50 years; protective barriers have had to be built to prevent seawater from flooding the area. Finally, the refining a
44、nd burning of petroleum and its products can cause air pollution. Advancing technology and strict laws, however, are helping control some of these adverse environmental effects.G) Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly includes vary
45、ing amounts of other higher alkanes and even a lesser percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and hydrogen sulfide. Natural gas is an energy source often used for heating, cooking, and electricity generation. It is also used as fuel for vehicles and as a chemical feedstock in the manufacture of plas
46、tics and other commercially important organic chemicals.H) Natural gas is found in deep underground rock formations or associated with other hydrocarbon reservoirs in coal bedsand as methane clathrates. Petroleum is also another resource found in proximity to and with natural gas.I) Most natural gas
47、 was created over time by two mechanisms: biogenic and thermogenic. Biogenic gas is created by methanogenic organisms in marshes, bogs, landfills, and shallow sediments. Deeper in the earth, at greater temperature and pressure, thermogenic gas is created from buried organic material.J) Before natura
48、l gas can be used as a fuel, it must undergo processing to remove impurities, including water, to meet the specifications of marketable natural gas.K) The by-products of processing include ethane, propane, butanes, pentanes, and higher molecular weight hydrocarbons, hydrogen sulfide (which may be converted into pure sulfur) , carbon dioxide, water vapor, and sometimes helium and nitrogen.L) Natural gas is often inform
