5. Passage Twenty-NineHow can we get rid of garbage (垃圾)? Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs? These are two important questions that many people are asking today.Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time.They suggest using garbage as an energy source, and at the same time it can save the land to hold garbage.For a long time, people buried garbage or dumped (倾倒)it on empty land.Now, empty land is scarce.But more and more garbage is produced each year.However, garbage can be a good fuel to use.The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuels.As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.Burning garbage is not a new idea.Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years.The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water.The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings.In Paris, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the city’s garbage each year.The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.Our fossil fuel supplies are limited.Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs.This method could also reduce the amount of garbage piling up on the earth.The best title for the passage may be ().

2. Passage ElevenDoctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it.They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and breast cancer.Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time.Some people express anger openly in a calm and reasonable way.Others burst with anger, screaming and yelling.But still others keep their anger inside.They cannot or will not express it.This is called (repressing)anger.For years some doctors claim that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous.They say that in both situations the brain of an angry person releases the same hormones (荷尔蒙).They spend the heart rate, raise blood pressure or sugar level in the blood.As a result, the angry person feels excited and is ready to react.The violent reaction may lead to high blood pressure.However, some other doctors argue that repressing anger is more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it.They believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of heart disease.Most doctors agree that it is important to learn how to deal with anger.They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about.If so, you should not express your anger immediately and try to wait until your anger has cooled down, so that you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.They also believe that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry.After all, it is much healthier to laugh than to get angry.According to the passage, the Oregon University System ().

1. Passage Twenty-OneWhat will man be like in the future—in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today.For man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example.Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today.Now, on average, men are about three inches taller.Five hundred years is relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller.Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal.Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity.As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones.This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular the forehead will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use.In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses.But over very long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs.These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker.At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? It will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer.In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at.This may well be true.All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us.He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.The passage tells us about ().

31. Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.The United States is facing a housing crisis: Affordable housing is inadequate, while luxury homes abound (充裕), and homelessness remains a persistent problem.Despite this, popular culture and the housing industry market happiness as living with both more space and more amenities (便利设施).Big houses are advertized as a reward for hard work and diligence, turning housing from a basic necessity into a luxury.This is reflected in our homes.The average single-family home built in the United States before 1970 was less than 1,500 square feet in size.By 2016, the average size of a new, single-family home was 2,422 square feet.What’s more, homes built in the 2000s were more likely than earlier models to have more of all types of spaces: bedrooms, bathrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, recreation rooms and garages.There are consequences of living big.As middle-class houses have grown larger, two things have happened.First, large houses take time to maintain, so cleaners and other low-wage service workers are required to keep these houses in order.Second, once-public spaces, where people from diverse backgrounds used to come together, have increasingly become privatized, leading to a reduction in the number of public facilities available to all, and a reduced quality of life for many.Take swimming pools.While in 1950, only 2,500 U.S.families owned pools, by 1999 this number was 4 million.At the same time, public municipal pools were often closed, leaving low-income people nowhere to swim.The trend for bigger housing thus poses ethical questions.Should Americans accept a system in which the middle and upper classes enjoy a luxurious lifestyle, using the low-wage labor of others? Are we willing to accept a system in which an increase in amenities purchased by the affluent means a reduction in amenities for the poor?I believe neither is acceptable.We must change the way we think: living well does not need to mean having more private spaces; instead, it could mean having more public spaces.A better goal than building bigger houses for some is to create more publicly accessible spaces and amenities for all.What are big houses promoted to be in the United States?

2. Passage ThirtyThe Chinese have used a method called acupuncture (针灸)to help perform operations for about 4, 000 years without putting the patient to sleep.This involves inserting flexible needles into certain parts of the body.The needles are available in a number of stores in China and everyone may buy them.To learn how to use needles takes about one month of training.But to be skillful requires greater time.The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful.This person also knows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed.In the past, a particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body.But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles.Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture.They are trying to develop a convincing theory to explain how the needles work in preventing pain, or why a needle in the wrist, for example, would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth.A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep.It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation whereas the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.Which statement is NOT true of the performer of acupuncture?
