【正文】 ot, and that you haven39。 it is one of the senses that tells you that you are still curious to exist, that you still have an edge on your longings and want to bite into the world and taste its multitudinous flavours and juices. By appetite, of course, I don39。 they weren’t dimes but pennies. 去星期日學校的路上，我緊緊地按住信里的硬幣，直到我知道它們到底是什么，它們不是一角的硬幣而是一分的。4. I have thought of going to work, but I am unwilling to admit that I do not know how to use my freedom and have to embrace the flunkydom of a job because I have no resources in a word, no character.我想過要回去工作，但是我不愿意承認我不知道如何使用我的自由，成為工作的仆人，因為我沒有任何資源，總之，沒有性格。我牽著愛爾蘭長毛獵犬在柏油路上和冰凍的小溪邊散步，但是在滑溜溜的表層站立或者散步是非常困難的，紅色的小狗滑倒了，搖晃不穩(wěn)的前行，我也狠狠地摔了兩跤，曾經(jīng)把我的槍都摔掉了，槍順著冰滑了好遠。2. It was a bright, cold day, the ground covered with a sleet that had39。s nose.21. Which of the following is within the capacity of the artificial nose being developed? 　　A. Performing physical examinations. 　 B. Locating places which attract terrorists. 　 C. Detecting drugs and water contamination. 　 D. Monitoring food processing. 22. A potential problem which might be caused by the use of an artificial nose is . A. negligence of public safety B. an abuse of personal freedomC. a hazard to physical health D. a threat to individual privacy23. The word logged (Line 5, Para. 7) most probably means . 　 A. preset B. entered C. processed D. simulated 24. To produce artificial noses for practical use, it is essential . 　 A. to develop microchips with thousands of odor receptors B. to invent chips sensitive to various chemicals　 C. to design a puter program to sort out smells D. to find chemicals that can alter the electrical current passing through 25. The author’s attitude towards Larry Myers39。ll have some workable sensors ready to use. Such devices might find wide use in places that attract terrorists. Police could detect drugs, bodies and bombs hidden in cars, while food inspectors could easily test food and water for contamination.　　The implications for revolutionary advances in public safety and the food industry are astonishing. But so, too, are the possibilities for abuse: Such machines could determine whether a woman is ovulating (排卵), without a physical exam or even her knowledge.　　One of the traditional protectors of American liberty is that it has been impossible to search everyone. That’s getting not to be the case.　　Artificial biosensors created at Auburn work totally differently from anything ever seen before. AromaScan, for example, is a desktop machine based on a bank of chips sensitive to specific chemicals that evaporate into the air. As air is sucked into the machine, chemicals pass over the sensor surfaces and produce changes in the electrical current flowing through them. Those current changes are logged into a puter that sorts out odors based on their electrical signatures.　　Myers says they expect to load a single fingernailsize chip with thousands of odor receptors (感受器), enough to create a sensor that39。s back and half in the front seat. Drax stamped his foot into the floor and sped off up the hill, ignoring a shout from the lorrydriver above the clatter of the Diesel pistons as he shot ahead.As he hurtled round the next bend he saw the shaft of two headlights curve up into the sky above the tops of the trees until they were almost vertical. They wavered there for an instant and then the beams whirled away across the sky and went out.A great barking laugh broke out of Drax as for a split second he took his eyes off the road and raised his face triumphantly towards the stars.Choose the best answer to each question.11.

By cutting the rolls of newsprint, Drax and Krebs__________________a) stop Bond. b) cause Bond to crash into the lorry. c) slow Bond down. d) cause the lorry to crash.Passage 4 CDBABThere’s a simple premise behind what Larry Myers does for a living: If you can smell it, you can find it.　　 Myers is the founder of Auburn University39。 He held the car steady as a rock as Krebs, with bare feet, went over the windscreen and scrambled along the shining bonnet, his knife in his hand.With a leap he was up and hacking at the lefthand ropes. Drax pulled away to the right and crawl
