25、 and fellow scientists at Princeton University in New Jersey, could allow electronics manufacturers to increase the density of transistors on silicon chips by 100- fold and streamline production at the same time.Instead of taking 10 or 20 minutes to make a computer chip, the electrical engineers hav
26、e imprinted features measuring I0 nanometers, or 10 millionths of a millimeter, on a computer chip in a quarter of a millionth of a second.The achievement, which could pave the way for more powerful computers and memory chips, is reported in the science journal Nature.“You just imprint the pattern d
27、irectly into the silicon. You not only reduce the steps, you can do it in nanoseconds,“ Chou said in a statement.Silicon chips are minute slices of semiconducting material made to carry out functions in everything from toasters and mobile phones to giant corporate computers.Scientists had been looki
28、ng for a replacement for silicon because they thought it would be impossible to improve the silicon chip, which would limit advancements in chip size and speed.Chou has done away with etching, the normal way to make small patterns in silicon, and pressed a mould against a piece of silicon and applie
29、d a laser pulse for just 20 billionths of a second. It melts and resolidifies around mould.“Here we do not need to use all those steps,“ Chou said. “Scientifically, people are still trying to understand how it works, because it is amazing that it works at all.“He calls the method Laser-Assisted Dire
30、ct Imprint or LADI. Princeton University is applying for a patent on the technique. In a commentary on the research in Nature, Fabian Pease, of Stanford University, said the achievement will allow electronics manufacturers to continue the pace of miniaturization and keep Moores laws on track.Moores
31、Law, observed by Intel Corp, co-founder Gordon Moore in 196.5, posits that the number of transistors on a semiconductor doubles roughly every 18 months.“A new imprinting technology for the production of silicon chips, introduced by Chou et al, could keep us on track,“ Pease said, adding that the law
32、 could hold for possibly another two decades.（分数：5.00）(1).What is the significance of the new technology? A. It is a replacement for silicon. B. It is a new imprinting technology to make faster, smaller computer chips. C. It is the improved etching method. D. The pattern can be imprinted directly in
33、to the silicon.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).What does “resolidify“ (Para. 8, last sentence. mean? A. Become hard again, B. Back to solitude. C. Become liquid. D. Stretch around.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Which of the following statements is NOT true as to LADI? A. It could allow electronics manufacturers to incre
34、ase the density of transistors on silicon chips by 100 times and simplify production meanwhile. B. A mould is pressed against a piece of silicon and a laser pulse is applied for just 20 billionths of a second before its done. C. It could result in more powerful computers and memory chips. D. It limi

One billion.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).What can be concluded concerning Moores laws? A. It has proved to be out of date. B. It is still applicable t

It was observed by Gordon Moore in 1965.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.九、BText 2/B(总题数：1，分数：5.00)As the 2lst century begins, a number of leaders in politics, education, and other professions believe that the United States must adopt some new valu
37、es to go along with the old traditional ones. What new values should Americans adopt? This is a very difficult question to answer. Certainly, a greater value should be placed on the conservation of natural resources; Americans should learn to use less and waste less. But conservation has never been
38、a strong value to Americans, who have believed that their country offered an endless, abundant supply of natural resources.Recently, progress has been made-more and more Americans are recycling their paper, cans, bottles, and other goods-but old wasteful habits die hard. Furthermore, the need to pro
39、tect the environment may conflict with the need for jobs, as in the Northwest, where conservationists battle lumber companies that want to cut down ancient redwood trees. A belief in the value of conservation is still compared with other American values; it can become stronger only as Americans see
40、the need for it more clearly.In addition, Americans may need to place a strong value on cooperation on a national scale to achieve important national objectives. The American idea of the national good has never been based on national cooperation but rather on the freedom of the individual, maintaini
41、ng those conditions that provide the greatest freedom and prosperity for the individual. It is far more difficult for Americans to accept shared sacrifice for the common good and well-being of the entire country. For example, although the majority of Americans believe that it is extremely important
42、to balance the national budget and reduce the deficit, they do not want to see cuts in government programs that benefit them personally.The American value of competition also hinders the development of a spirit of national cooperation. Competition sometimes encourages feelings of suspicion rather th
43、an the mutual trust that is necessary for successful national cooperation. Although Americans often cooperate successfully on the local level-in neighborhood groups and churches, for examplethey become suspicious when the national government becomes involved. For example, on the national level, they
44、 may see themselves as part of an interest group that is competing with other interest groups for government funds. A request by the national government for shared sacrifice may be seen as coercive and destructive rather than voluntary and constructive. However, the demands of the 21st century may c
45、ompel Americans to place a greater value on national cooperation to solve problems that affect them all, directly and indirectly.（分数：5.00）(1).The best title of this passage could be _. A. Which is Better, New Value or Old Value B. Conservation vs. Need for Jobs C. The Need for New National Values D.
46、 Cooperation and Competition（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).According to the passage, which of the following is not true? A. Some Americans would not accept the value of conservation and environment protection, because this value would probably make them unemployed. B. Many Americans have been used to wasting, so it will be difficult for them to accept the new value of conservation. C. Some old values are
