21、radiation can cause changes in human cells that might affect the brain, the leader of the research team said. But Darius Leszczynski, who headed the 2-year study and will present findings next week at a conference in Quebec (魁北克 ), said more research was needed to determine the seriousness of the ch

22、anges and their impact on the brain or the body. The study at Finlands Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority found that exposure to radiation from mobile phones can cause increased activity in hundreds of proteins in human cells grown in a laboratory, he said. “We know that there is some biological

23、 response. We can detect it with our very sensitive approaches, but we do not know whether it can have any physiological effects on the human brain or human body,“ Leszczynski said. Nonetheless the study, the initial findings of which were published last month in the scientific journal Differentiati

24、on, raises new questions about whether mobile phone radiation can weaken the brains protective shield against harmful substances. The study focused on changes in cells that line blood vessels and on whether such changes could weaken the functioning of the blood-brain barrier, which prevents potentia

25、lly harmful substances from entering the brain from the bloodstream, Leszczynski said. The study found that a protein called hsp27 linked to the functioning of the blood-brain barrier showed increased activity due to irradiation and pointed to a possibility that such activity could make the shield m

26、ore permeable(能透过的 ), he said. “Increased protein activity might cause cells to shrink not the blood vessels but the cells themselves and then tiny gaps could appear between those cells through which some molecules could pass. “ he said. Leszczynski declined to speculate on what kind of health risks

27、 that could pose, but said a French study indicated that headache, fatigue and sleep disorders could result. “These are not life-threatening problems but can cause a lot of discomfort,“ he said, adding that a Swedish group had also suggested a possible link with Alzheimers disease. “Where the truth

28、is I do not know,“ he said. Leszczynski said that he, his wife and children use mobile phones, and he said that he did not think his study suggested any need for new restrictions on mobile phone use. 41 According to Leszczynski, how does mobile phone affect ones health? ( A) Mobile phone radiation c

29、an increase protein activities and such activities can make the protective shield more permeable. ( B) Mobile phone radiation can shrink the blood vessels and prevent blood from flowing smoothly. ( C) Mobile phone radiation will bring stress to people exposed to it. ( D) Mobile phone radiation kills

30、 blood cells at a rapid speed. 42 Whats the result of the French study? ( A) The harm of mobile phone radiation is life-threatening. ( B) Mobile phone may affect ones normal way of thinking. ( C) Sleep disorders could result from mobile phone radiation. ( D) A protein called hsp27 is killed by mobil

31、e phone radiation. 43 What kind of disease is not caused by the use of mobile phone? ( A) Fatigue. ( B) Headache. ( C) Alzheimers disease.

32、le dare not use mobile phone because of its radiation. ( C) People will continue to use mobile phone. ( D) There will be new restrictions on the use of mobile phone. 45 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? ( A) The research in Finland found that mobile phone radiation will af

33、fect ones brain. ( B) Mobile phone radiation can cause increased activity in hundreds of protein in human cells. ( C) Increased protein activity might cause cells to shrink. ( D) Lszczynski forbade his wife and children to use mobile phone after his research. 45 The initial impact of computers was i

34、n the area of entertainment. If you walked by a video arcade in the early 1980s, you could not have failed to notice that the use of video games was growing at what some considered an alarming rate. In 1981 the movie industry grossed $ 3 billion, video games took in an estimated $ 6 billion. That gi

35、ves you some idea of just how big the computer industry had become. Video games employ the same technology as personal computers, and indeed many who bought personal computers did so primarily for playing games at home, thus saving their quarters. Though video games are not as popular as they were a

36、 few years ago, they did provide consumers with their first real reason to buy PCs. A more recent computer innovation, desktop publishing, supplies one good reason for those who write for a living to buy a PC. Desktop publishing is a deceptively simple description for an extremely complex group of h

37、ardware and software tools. You can now write text, edit text, draw illustrations, incorporate photographs, design page layouts, and print a finished document with a relatively inexpensive computer and laser printer. Although the new technology offers new freedom, there is a price to be paid for thi

38、s freedom. With total control comes total responsibility. In fact, the issue of social responsibility in our new computer age has long been a topic of debate among computer enthusiasts. Some people are concerned with the long-term social effects of the so-called computer revolution. Ironically, many

39、 PC pioneers who built and marketed the first machines were 60s-style advocates of social change. They claim that while personal computer technology has the potential to make society more equal, its having the opposite effect since upper-middle-class people can afford them and lower-class people can

40、not. In addition, the ways that computers are used to monitor the activities of their users have evoked anxiety about the machines. Over 7 million Americans now have their work paced, controlled, and monitored by computers. A computer is more restrictive and powerful in the way it controls people th

41、an the old-fashioned assembly line. This can lead to what some have called “tech-stress“. Irritated eyes, back problems, and other physical symptoms have also been associated with the extensive use of computers. Although the personal computer may not have had the impact some predicted a decade age,

42、the combination of computer technology with satellites and cable does promise innovations in the mass media that would have seemed astonishing just a few short years ago. 46 The dramatic growth of the business dealing in video games is the result of_. ( A) the development of computer industry ( B) t

43、he development of wireless technology ( C) the decline in movie industry ( D) the depression in the entertainment business 47 The consumers first motivation in buying personal computer is to_. ( A) play video games ( B) make writing easier for themselves ( C) facilitate their entrance into the stock

44、 market ( D) transmit printed information 48 Whats the advantage that desktop publishing brings people? ( A) It makes home banking a reality. ( B) It provides a method for producing professional-looking documents. ( C) It makes it possible for people to receive newspaper electronically. ( D) It make

45、s it possible for people to bring office work to home. 49 In the long run, the social effect of computers is that_. ( A) it controls peoples life ( B) it brings about a more equal society ( C) it might lengthen the distance between upper-middle-class people and lower-class people ( D) it leads to a

46、profound change in the mass media 50 According to the passage, which of the following is true? ( A) Computer may cause health problems for its users. ( B) Computer has led to a revolution in every aspect of peoples life. ( C) Computer is financially within the reach for most consumers. ( D) The infl

47、uence of computer has on peoples life is not as great as people have predicted. 50 There are advantages in 1997, if you want to look for them. The air is cleaner, and there seem to be fewer colds. The crime rate has dropped. With the police car too expensive, policemen are back on their beats. More

48、important, the streets are full. Legs are king, and people walk everywhere far into the night. There is mutual protection in crowds. If the weather isnt too cold, people sit out front. If it is hot, the open air is the only air-conditioning they get. At least, the street lights still burn. Indoors,

49、few people can afford to keep lights burning after supper. As for the winter well, it is inconvenient to be cold, with most of what furnace fuel is allowed hoarded for the dawn. But sweaters are popular indoor wear. Showers are not an everyday luxury. It is sore in the suburbs, which were born with the auto, lived with the auto, and are dying with the auto. Suburbanites from associations that assign turns to the procurement and distribution of food. Pushcarts creak from house to house along the posh suburban roads, and every bad snowstorm is a
