11、nk.Time to Learn How to SortWhatever we dont want - no matter whether its eggshells, newspapers, soda cans or old socks - its all garbage. And garbage goes to the garbage bin. There seems to be _21_wrong with that. But do you really know how to throw away garbage properly?China _22_ (promote) garbag
12、e sorting for over a decade, but for the majority of the public the concept hasnt sunk in. Shenzhen issued a new regulation. It says residents will be fined up to 100 yuan and organizations 1,000 yuan for not sorting rubbish _23_specific groups.“Its evident that the government is determined to push
13、this forward,” said Zhang Ning, a program officer _24_(serve) in a Beijing-based public welfare organization. “But Im afraid the regulation will prove to be counter-productive because garbage sorting has never been achieved by merely imposing severe punishments.”A recent survey found that 49.5 perce
14、nt of the respondents said they still dont know how to sort garbage, _25_45.5percent just cant be bothered to do it. “Lots of citizens _26_(confuse)about whats recyclable and whats general waste. For example, its scarcely known that tissue is non-recyclable because its too moisture-prone and usually
15、 too polluted _27_ (recycle).” said Zhang, a representative.According to Zhang, 70 percent of garbage is a“ _28_(misplace)resource”. For instance, a ton of waste steel can be refined into 0.9 tons of usable steel, and a ton of kitchen waste is able to produce 0.3 tons of organic fertilizer.But all o

18、; Good News for HumanityWhen Apple cut its revenue estimate(收益预期) for the last quarter of 2018 because of unexpectedly slow sales of iPhones, markets trembled. The companys share price, which had been _31_ for months, fell by a further 10% on January 3rd, the day after the news came out. Apples supp
19、liers shares were also hit.Analysts assume that the number of smartphones sold in 2018 will be slightly lower than in 2017, the industrys first ever annual decline. All this is terrible news for investors who had _32_ on continued growth. But step back and look at the bigger picture. That smartphone
20、 sales have peaked, and seem to be _33_ off at around 1.4billion units a year, is good news for humanity. The slowdown is actually the result of market saturation (饱和), which hits Apple the hardest because, despite a relatively small market share (13% of smartphone users), it captures almost all of
21、the industrys _34_. But Apples pain is humanitys gain. The fact that the benefits of these magical devices are now so widely _35_ is something to be celebrated.Now many phones are used for longer than three years, often as hand-me-downs. Replacement cycles are lengthening as new models offer only _3
22、6_ improvements. So even with flat sales, the longer _37_ between upgrades mean people who already have phones benefit. For all but the most addicted device fans, the slowing pace of upgrades comes as a welcome _38_.Does that mean innovation is slowing? No. As computers become smaller, still more _3
23、9_ and closer to peoples bodies, many technicians expect that wearable devices, from smart watches to AR headsets, will be the next big thing. Even so, finding another product with the scope of the smartphone is a tall order. The smartphone holds its _40_ as the device that will make computing and c
24、ommunications worldwide. The recent slowing of smartphone sales is bad news for the industry, obviously. But for the rest of humanity it is a welcome sign that a transformative technology has become almost universal.六、完形填空Now, U.S. researchers have identified a new way to treat people infected with
25、tuberculosis (肺结核)before they get sick.Tuberculosis is one of the worlds most _41_ health threats.The World Health Organization says tuberculosis kills nearly two million people each year. Another two billion are _42_: they are infected, but dont have symptoms of the disease. Those at highest risk c
26、an take medicine, but Vanderbilt University researcher Timothy Sterling says not everyone _43_ with the treatment, which is a daily dose of isoniazid(异烟肼，抗结核药)for nine months. So although the medication is highly effective if people take all of their medication, many people do not take all their med
27、ication and therefore the effectiveness of the treatment plan is_44_. As a(n) _45_, Sterling and his colleagues _46_ isoniazid with another drug, rifapentine(利福喷汀).The combination was taken weekly, not daily, for just three months. And the results of this study showed that the new treatment plan - t
28、he three months of isoniazid and rifapentine- was as effective as the ninemonth isoniazid treatment plan._47_, the short-course, three-month treatment plan had higher treatment completion rates and was also well _48_.There was some other difference. The two-drug, combination treatment was administer
29、ed as directly _49_ therapy. That means the patients took their medicine in the presence of a health care worker, to ensure that they followed the treatment plan. This was a large study, involving 7,500 participants in North America, Spain, and Brazil. Sterling _50_ that most of the people in this s
30、tudy were HIV-negative. The results might be _51_for HIV-positive people. A recent study in South Africa indicated that the combination therapy works well in people infected with HIV as well as tuberculosis, but the study was too small to be_52_.Timothy Sterlings research, published in The New Engla
31、nd Journal of Medicine, has been _53_ by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the CDCThe government health agency recommends the 12-dose weekly combination treatment as an equal alternative to the 270dose daily treatment plan that has been the_54_therapy. But because of possible _55_
32、 issues, the CDC still recommends the daily treatment plan for HIVpositive patients who are taking antiretroviral drugs or women who are pregnant. Also because of a lack of data, the CDC says children under age 12 should stay with the nine-month daily treatment.41ApublicBpersistentCpredictableDmild4

35、0 years ago was treated for a seizure(癫痫)today, they would be surprised by the treatments freshness. Thats because doctors in the 1800s were influenced more by original medical beliefs than science.Rather than thinking the brain caused seizures, people in the 1800s still thought they were the result
36、 of strange forces. They associated seizures with the work of evil spirits. Others felt that the seizures had a cosmic or lunar cause. They believed that the cycles of the moon and stars could make someone have a seizure.During a process to treat a patient who has seizures, doctors would force the p
37、atient to pray for the grace of the God. They thought if the patient did this, then the patient would rid themselves of the evil spirits causing the seizures.The arrival of modern psychiatry(精神病学) occurred during the 1800s. At that time people who suffered from seizures were placed in psychiatric ho
38、spitals. They were treated like they were mad. However, none of the out-of-date treatments worked.It wasnt until the late 1850s that the causes of seizures were understood. We know today that these causes are related to the brain. Misfired signals from the brain cause a jerking reflex(反射) in the bod
39、y. These usually occur when someone is very tired.Once the causes of seizures were known, definitive treatments were developed.Today, treatments range from taking pills to having surgery. Treatment is personalized according to the type of seizure the patient has.Even today, some people are unsure ab
40、out seizures. Their most common mistake is thinking that a person having a seizure will swallow their tongue. They often push some implement roughly in the persons mouth. However, this doesnt help. The implement often blocks the airway and prevents the person from breathing. Yet most of the public n
41、o longer fear people who have seizures. Instead, they can now help and comfort a person if they have a seizure.56Why would someone from the past be surprised by todays treatments for seizures?ABecause they believed in scientific treatment for seizures.BBecause they believed seizures were caused by s
42、trange forces in nature.CBecause they believed there would be no cure for seizures.DBecause they believed patient would treat seizures by himself.57During the arrival of modern psychiatry, how were people treated in psychiatric hospitals?AThey were forced to ask the God for mercy.BThey worked for th

44、l Forces or ScienceCSeizures Now and ThenDTreatments Effective or NotHow a few members of the animal kingdom handle the transition to adulthood?African elephantsThese beautiful beasts come close to imitate teen rebellion. Calves spend a decade with their mothers in female-dominated groups - and ladi
45、es stay there - but adolescent boys leave mom for noisy crews of bros. In their 20s, they often downsize to smaller male groups.Orangutans (猩猩)Slow metabolism allows these primates to survive food shortages - times when weather makes ripe fruit scarce. But energy efficiency comes at a cost; growth a
46、nd maturation take time. Orangutan mamas nurse their young longer than any other wild creature does.Orcas(逆戟鲸)Killer whales join their mothers familial group for life. This lasting-relationship seems to increase a pups chance of survival; if mom dies, a young male (under 30) is three times more like
47、ly to die than a peer whose mother is alive. Risk of death post-mom-mortem rises as kids get older.Harp sealsA harp seals “childhood” lasts just 12 days. A pups sole purpose during that brief period of coddling(宠爱) is to constantly nurse, gaining a fifth of its birth weight in blubber(鲸脂) every day. Once its fat - they bec
