Oceanography has been defined as "The application of all sciences to the study of the sea"
. Before the nineteenth century, scientists with an interest in the sea were few and far between.

Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings, but he was reluctant to go to sea to further his work.

For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travelers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question "what is at the bottom of the oceans?" Had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineers had to know the depth profile of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured.

It was to Maury of the US Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned, in 1853, for information on this matter. In the 1840s, Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings were taken to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later, some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book The Physical Geography of the Sea.

The cable was laid, but not until 1866 was the connection made permanent and reliable. At the early attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeper parts of the sea.

Within a few years oceanography was under way. In 1872 Thomson led a scientific expedition, which lasted four years and brought home thousands of samples from the sea.

Their classification and analysis occupied scientists for years and led to a fivevolume report, the last volume being published in 1895.

The proposal to lay a telegraph cable from Europe to America made oceanographic studies take on ______.

A.an academic aspect

B.a military aspect

C.a business aspect

D.an international aspect

Meetings are very common nowadays. They can be weekly, monthly or annually. Some peopl
e think most meetings feel like a waste of time. They seem pointless and boring at times. Then how do you run an effective meeting?First, assign roles, such as greeter, timekeeper and note taker, so that you, the organizer, can be free to lead discussions and presentations. Next, take charge from the start. Everyone will listen to you and join your discussion if you take charge in every aspect of the meeting. Show everyone that you really know what you are talking about, and everything that you talk about is useful. Most important of all, follow the agenda. At the end of the meeting, spend a little extra time for the participants to discuss anything that needs to be immediately discussed but which may not have been on the agenda. Always ask the participants questions to speak their minds and keep them interested. Remember that a good meeting is a two way communication. Be open to everyone's opinion, ideas, and suggestions. Don't forget to thank them for the ideas they present. And finally, close the meeting with everyone knowing what is expected of them and what they should do for the following weeks. Then, send out meeting minutes within a few days, while everyone still remembers the points.

Most meetings are sometimes thought to be___.

A.solving many problems

B.discussing important matters

C.killing time and uninteresting

听力原文: Advertising actually has a dual function: to sell, as well as to inform. If you
stop to think of it, advertisements pro vide information of almost everything in our household and immediate environment, from shampoo to fuel for cars. A significant purpose is to inform. consumers of new products and new services as well as to remind them of established ones. Performance, price, value for money, quality and reliability are some of the main features mentioned in advertisements.

Yet there is another important aspect of advertising that should not be forgotten: that of choice. A number of advertisements for different brands of the same product, e.g. toothpaste, shampoo or washing powder allow the consumer to choose. Choice is an important part of buying.

In this busy day and age, there is little time for comparison shopping. To determin which product is the best to buy, and at the most competitive price, consumers these days rely on advertising in its various forms. This saves time and energy and simplifies shopping. So for busy people like you and me, advertisements actually do us a favor.

What is the dual function of advertisements?

A.To sell and to inform.

B.To increase prices and competition.

C.To change the means of selling and buying.

D.To take away chances of choosing from customers.

第5题
The topic of thought is one area of psychology, and many observers have considered this as
pect in connection with robots and computers: Some of the old worry about A1 (artificial intelligence) were closely linked to the question of whether computers could think. The first massive electronic computers, capable of rapid (if often unreliable) computation and little or no creative activity, were soon named "electronic brains". A reaction to this terminology quickly followed: To put them in their place, computers were called "high-speed idiots", an effort to protect human vanity. But not everyone realized the implications of the expression: "high-speed idiot". It has not been pointed out often enough that even the human idiot is one of the most intelligent fife forms on the earth. If the early computers were even that intelligent, it was already a remarkable state of affairs.

One consequence from studying the possibility of computer thought was that we were forced to examine with new care the idea of thought in general. It soon became clear that we were not sure what we meant by such terms as thought and thinking. We tend to assume that human beings think, some more than others, though we often call people thoughtless or unthinking. Dreams cause a problem, partly because they usually happen outside our control. They are obviously some type of mental experience, but are they a type of thinking? And the question of nonhuman life forms adds further problems. Many of us would maintain that some of the higher animals—dogs, cats, apes, and so on—are capable of at least basic thought, but what about fish and insects? It is certainly true that the higher mammals show complex brain activity when tested with the appropriate equipment. If thinking is demonstrated by evident electrical activity in the brain, then many animal species are capable of thought. Once we have formulated clear ideas on what thought is in biological creatures, it will be easier to discuss the question of thought in artificial machines. One of the great benefits of AI research is that we are being forced to examine more closely the working of the human mind.

It is already clear that machines have superior mental abilities to many life forms. No tree can play chess as well as even the simplest computer; nor can frogs repair car bodies as well as robots. It seems that, viewed in terms of intellect, the computer should be set well above plants and most animals. Only the higher animals can, it seems, compete with computers with regard to intellect.

The first electronic computers were

A.slow and reliable.

B.creative and accurate.

C.large and fast.

D.only capable of additions.
