But she longed to work on more odd designs that would stand out.Then she met Pollyanna 紧因金任 -222- Hope,a young amputee(被截肢者). "She wanted something a little different on her leg:pictures of a cartoon she loved,Peppa Pig,"said Sophie,who is now based in London.So she designed a unique leg covered in tattoo- like images of Peppa and other pigs riding a bicycle and eating ice cream.Working with Hope made Sophie realize there was a potential market for limbs. Since then,Sophie founded the Alternative Limb Project(ALP)to make artistic limbs.Her work includes an arm wrapped in sculpted snakes and a leg that looks like porcelain ( covered in a painted flowery vine.She makes about six limbs per year,always including clients' ideas so that they receive a personal piece they can celebrate rather than hide. Of course,a fancy-looking limb won't suit everyone.For Sophie,the basis is that each limb must satisfy a combination of comfort,beauty and functionality,and pushing too hard in one direction can weaken other areas.But for amputees who appreciate novelty,Sophie has some amazing ideas. "I'd really like to make a candy-dispenser leg with colorful candies inside it."she says. "Or a cuckoo-clock leg with a wooden bird that pops out every hour."Her goal is to fashion a striking limb. "It'll transform the limbs from an elephant in the room into a conversation piece." 24.Why did Pollyanna Hope come to Sophie? A.She hoped to have a tailored limb.

D.Amputees will have easy access to artistic limbs. C A new study involving nearly 50,000 people from four continents offers new insights into identifying the quantity of daily walking steps that will best improve adults'health and longevity();and whether the ideal number of steps differs across people of different ages The study represents an effort to develop an evidence-based public health message about th benefits of physical activity.The often-repeated 10,000-step-a-day saying grew out of 紧因金手 -…2。-。。222。。- decades--old marketing activity for a Japanese pedometer((计步器)，with no science to back it up. Led by physical activity professor Amanda Paluch,an international group of scientists conducted an experiment among adults aged 18 and older.They grouped the nearly 50,000 participants into four comparative groups according to average steps per day.The lowest step group averaged 3,500 steps;the second,5,800;the third,7,800;and the fourth,10,900 steps per day.Among the three higher active groups,there was a 40-53%lower risk of death, compared to the lowest step group. More specifically,for adults 60 and older,the risk of early death leveled off at about 6,000-8,000 steps per day,meaning that more steps than that provided no additional benefit for longevity,while for adults younger than 60,about 8,000-10,000 steps per day. So,what we saw was this continuing reduction in.risk as the number of steps increases, until it levels off.Interestingly,the study found no definitive association with walking speed." Paluch says. The new study supports and expands findings from another study led by Paluch before, which found that walking at least 7,000 steps a day reduced middle-aged people's risk of early death."There's a lot of evidence suggesting that moving even a little more is beneficial, particularly for those who are doing very little activity."Paluch says."More steps per day are better for your health." 28.Why did the scientists carry out the new study? A.To know about people's health condition. B.To explain the pedometer's working principles. C.To determine the best physical activity for people. D.To provide a scientific guideline on daily walking. 29.What does the underlined phrase"leveled off'in paragraph 3 mean? A.Turned higher.B.Became stable.C.Fell sharply D.Changed rapidly 30.What does the experiment find? A.The old should walk as much as possible. B.Young people usually walk more than the old. C.The most beneficial steps differ by age groups. D.Walking pace is the key to avoiding early death. 31.What does Paluch advise people doing little activity to do? A.To walk more steps. B.To control walking speed. C.To limit walking distance. D.To track the number of steps. 0 The ocean covers almost three-quarters of the planet.Were all the planet's water placed over the United States,it would form a column of liquid 132 km tall.The ocean provides 3 bn people with almost a fifth of their protein(making fish a bigger source of the stuff than beef). Climate and weather systems depend on the temperature patterns of the ocean and its 紧因金手 -2。-。。22。 interactions with the atmosphere.If anything ought to be too big to fail,it is the ocean. Humans have long assumed that the ocean's size allowed them to put anything they wanted into it and to take anything they wanted out.However,changing temperatures and chemistry, overfishing and pollution have stressed its ecosystems for decades. The ocean stores more than nine-tenths of the heat trapped on Earth by greenhouse-gas emissions.Consequently,coral reefs are suffering.Scientists expect almost all corals to be gone by 2050.By the middle of the century the ocean could contain more plastic than fish by weight Ground down into tiny pieces,it is eaten by fish and then by people,with uncertain effects on human health.Nevertheless,appetite for fish grows:almost 90%of stocks are fished either at or beyond their sustainable limits.The ocean nurtures humanity.Humanity treats it without respect. Such self-destructive behavior demands explanation.Unarguably,the ocean being subject to a series of laws and agreements,enforcement is hard.Apart from this,two reasons stand out. One is geography.The bulk of the ocean is beyond the horizon and below the waterline.The damage being done to its health is visible in a few liminal places.But for the most part,the sea is out of sight and out of mind.It is telling that there is only a single fleeting reference to the ocean in the Paris agreement on climate change. Second,the ocean is a victim of other bigger processes.The emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere is changing the marine environment along with the rest of the planet.The ocean has warmed by 0.7C since the 19th century,damaging corals and encouraging organisms to migrate towards the poles for cooler waters.Greater concentrations of carbon dioxide in the water are making it more acidic,harming creatures such as crabs and oysters,whose calcium carbonate shells suffer as marine chemistry alters. 32.What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A.The vastness of the ocean. B.The significance of the ocean. C.The ecosystem of the ocean D.The climate of the ocean. 33.How does the author convey his message in paragraph 3? A.By listing current problems. B.By providing research data. C.By citing expert opinions. D.By comparing different ecosystems. 34.Why does the author mention "the Paris agreement on climate change"in paragraph 4? A.To show people often fail to observe it. B.To tell us people seldom refer to it. C.To remind us the ocean is vital to man. D.To prove ocean protection is ignored. 35.What will the author probably write next? A.How to take advantage of the ocean B.How to research into the ocean. C.How to rise to the challenges of the ocean. D.How to raise people's environmental awareness. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 餐巴扫描全能王 病1觉人能直用的日罐Ae 2-222- I can't remember how many times I've been asked,"36?"My answer would always be the same:I'd want the ability to know what people are thinking.Absolutely,flying and invisibility (had crossed my mind.But every time,I'd always settle on reading people's minds.
