9、ernment, loves to turn the tables on those who dont think its possible to be middle-class, conservative, educated and still be truly black. Once, during an abortion debate, a woman in the audience angrily told James she was so middle-class she didnt have a clue about real African American life. “If
10、you understood what these women go through, “ the woman said, “you would realize that abortion is their only choice. “James then asked the woman to consider a poor black mother on welfare. She already has four children and an alcoholic husband who has all but abandoned the family. Now she discovers

25、anges in the human body32 Mans first real invention, and one of the most important inventions in history, was the wheel. All transportation and every machine in the world depend on it. The wheel is the simplest yet perhaps the most remarkable of all inventions, because there are no wheels in nature-
26、no living thing was ever created with wheels. How, then, did man come to invent the wheel? Perhaps some early hunters found that they could roll the carcass of a heavy animal through the forest on logs more easily than they could carry it. However, the logs themselves weighed a lot.It must have take
27、n a great prehistoric thinker to imagine two thin slices of log connected, at their centers by a string stick. This would roll along just as the logs did, yet be much lighter and easier to handle. Thus the wheel and axle came into being and with them the first carts.33 The wheel is important because
28、_.（A）it was mans first real invention（B） all transportation depends on it（C） every machine depends on it（D）both B and C34 The wheel is called_.（A）simple（B） complicated（C） strange（D）unusual35 It was remarkable of man to invent the wheel because_.（A）it led to many other inventions（B） man had no use fo
29、r it then（C） there were no wheels in nature（D）all of the above36 The wheel was probably invented by_.（A）a group of early hunters（B） the first men on earth（C） a great prehistoric thinker（D）the man who made the first cart36 Even plants can run a fever, especially when theyre under attack by insects or
30、 disease. But unlike humans, plants can have their temperature taken from 3 , 000 feet awaystraight up. A decade ago, adapting the infrared(红外线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops
31、to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide(杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that dont have pest(害虫)problems.Even better, Paleys Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems bef
32、ore they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3 , 000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a color-code map showing where plants were running “fevers“. Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pestic
33、ide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paleys company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to g
34、et back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States“ , says George Oerther of Texas A&M. Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agricultrue, thinks remote infrared crop s
35、canning could be adopted by the end of the decade. But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.37 In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to_.（A）locate the problem areas（B） drew a color-coded map（C） measure the size of the
36、 affected area（D）estimate the damage to the crops38 Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by_.（A）transforming poisoned rain（B） consulting infrared scanning experts（C） resorting to spot-spraying（D）detecting crop problems at an early date39 Plants will emit an increased amount of heat wh
37、en they are_.（A）sprayed with pesticides（B） in pour physical condition（C） facing an infrared scanner（D）exposed to excessive sun rays40 The application of infrared scanning technolgy to agriculture met with some difficulties due to_.（A）the lack of official support（B） its high cost（C） its failure to he
38、lp increase production（D）the lack of financial support四、Part IV ClozeDirections: There are some blanks in the following passages. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.
