根据下列材料请回答 31～35 题：CThe police fired tear gas and arrested more than 5,000 passively resisting protestors Friday in an attempt to break up the largest antinuclear demonstration ever staged in the United States. More than 135,000 demonstrators confronted the police on the construction site of a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant scheduled to provide power to most of southern New Hampshire. Organizers of the huge demonstration said that the protest was continuing despite the police actions. More demonstrators were arriving to keep up the pressure on state authorities to cancel the project. The demonstrator had charged that the project was unsafe in the densely populated area, would create thermal pollution in the bay, and had no acceptable means for disposing of its radioactive wasters. The demonstrations would go on until the jails and the courts were so overloaded that the state judicial system would collapse.Governor Stanforth Thumper insisted that there would be no reconsideration of the power project and no delay in its construction set for completion in three years. “This project will begin on time and the people of this state will begin to receive its benefits on schedule. Those who break the law in misguided attempts to sabotage the project will be dealt with according to the law,” he said. And the police called in reinforcements from all over the state to handle the disturbances.The protests began before dawn Friday when several thousand demonstrators broke through the police lines around the cordoned-off construction site. They carried placards that read “No Nukes is Good Nukes,” “Sunpower, Not Nuclear Power,” and “Stop Private Profits from Public Peril.” They defied police order to move from the area. Tear gas canisters fired by the police failed to dislodge the protestors who had been prepared with their own gas masks or facecloths. Finally the gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to drag off the demonstrators one by one. The protestors did not resist the police, but refused to walk away under their own power. Those arrested would be charged with unlawful assembly, trespassing, and disturbing the peace.第 31 题 What were the demonstrators protesting about?A． Private profits.B． The nuclear power station.C． The project of nuclear power construction.D． Public peril.

Passage FourOne evening Mr. Green was driving home along a lonely country road. He had ￡ 100.00 in his pock et. At the loneliest part of the road, a man asked for a lift (搭车). Mr. Green told him to get into the car and continued his driving. When he talked to the man and learned that the man had been in prison for robbery and had broken out of prison two days before, Mr. Green was very worried.Suddenly he saw a police-car and had a bright idea. He just reached a small town where the speed limit (限制速度) was 30 miles an hour. But he drove the car as fast as it could go. He looked back and saw that the police-car had begun to chase (追) him. After a mile or so the police-car overtook (赶上) him and ordered him to stop. A policeman got out and came to Mr. Green's car. Mr. Green hoped that he could tell the policeman about the escaped robber, but he felt the man had put a gun against his back. The policeman took out his notebook and pencil, saying he wanted Mr. Green's name and address. Mr. Green asked to be taken to the police station, but the policeman said, "No, you will have to appear at the police station later." Mr. Green had to do as the policeman told him. The policeman wrote his name and address down, put his notebook and pencil back in his pocket and gave Mr. Green a talk about dangerous driving. Then Mr. Green started up his car again and drove on.Just as he reached the outskirts (郊区) of London, the passenger said, "! want to get off here." Mr. Green stopped the car, the man got out and said, "Thanks for the lift. You've been good to me. This is the least I can do in return (报答)." And he handed Mr. Green the policeman's notebook, which he stole while the policeman was talking to Mr. Green.46. The man asking for a lift was ______.A. a robber who robs driversB. a policeman who had worked in prisonC. a prisoner who had escaped from prisonD. a stranger with ￡ 100.00 in his pocket

第一篇DNA TestingDNA testing reveals the genes of each individual person.Since the early twentieth century scientists have known that all human characteristics are contained in a person's genes and are passed from parents to children.Genes work as a chemical instruction manual for each part and each function of the body.Their basic chemical element is called DNA,a copy of which can be found in every cell. The existence of genes and the chemical structure of DNA were understood by the mid-1900s,but scientists have only recently been able to identify a person from just a drop of blood or a single hair.One of the most important uses of DNA testing is in criminal investigation.The very first use of DNA testing in a criminal case was in 1985 in Great Britain,when a man confessed to killing a young woman in the English countryside.Because police had found samples of the killer's DNA at the scene of the crime,a biologist suggested that it might be possible to compare that DNA to some from the confessor's blood.To everyone's surprise,the tests showed that he was not the killer. Nor was he guilty of a similar murder thathad happened some time earlier. At that point he admitted that he had confessed to the crimes out of fear and police pressure.The police then asked 5,000 local men for samples of their blood,and DNA testing revealed that one of them was the real murderer,so the first man was set free.In 1992,two law professors,Peter Neufeld and Bany Scheck,decided to use DNA evidence to help set free such mistakenly convicted prisoners.With the help of their students.they created a not-for-profit organizationcalled the Innocence Project. Most of their clients are poor men,many from racial and ethnic minorities.In fact,studies have shown that U. S. judges and juries are often influenced by racial and ethnic background,and that people from minority groups are more likely to be convicted. Some of these men had been sentenced to death,a form of punishment used in thirty eight states out of fifty(as of 2006).For most of these prisoners,their only hope was another trial in which DNA testing could be used to prove their innocence.Between 1992 and 2006,the Innocence Project helped free 100 men.Some of these prisoners had been in jail for ten,twenty years or more for crimes they did not commit.However,the goal of the Innocence Project is not simply to set free those who are wrongfully in jail.They also hope to bring about real changes in the criminal justice system.Illinois in the late 1990s,a group of journalism students at Northwestern University were able to bring about such a change in that state.They began investigating some Illinois prisoners who claimed to be inno- cent. Through DNA testing,the students were able to prove that in fact the prisoners were not guilty of the crimes they had been accused of. Thirteen of these men were set free,and in 2000,Governor Ryan of Illinois decided to stop carrying out death sentences until further study could be made of the prisoners' cases。The use of DNA in criminal cases is still being debated around the world.Some fear that governments will one day keep records of everyone'sDNA,which could put limits on the privacy and freedom of citizens. Other people mistrust the science of DNA testing and think that lawyers use it to get their clients free whether or not they are guilty.But for those whose innocence has been proven and who are now free men,DNA testing has meant nothing less than a return to life.And with the careful use of DNA testing,no innocent person should ever be convicted again.What is the main idea of this passage?A:DNA testing has changed the American legal system.B:DNA testing has helped innocent men go free in Illinois.C:DNA testing uses genetics to identify a person.D:DNA testing has played a key role in criminal investigation.

问答题Practice 8 In 1992, two law professors, Peter Neufeld and Barry Seheck, decided to use DNA evidence to help set free such mistakenly convicted prisoners. With the help of their students, they created a not-for-profit organization called the Innocence Project. Most of their clients are poor men, many from racial and ethnic minorities. In fact, studies have shown that U. S. judges and juries are often influenced by racial and ethnic background, and that people from minority groups are more likely to be convicted. Between 1992 and 2006, the Innocence Project helped free 100 men. Some of these prisoners had been in jail for ten, but twenty years or more for crimes they did not commit. However, the goal of the Innocence Project is not simply to set free those who are wrongfully in jail. They also hope to bring about real changes in the criminal justice system. Illinois in the late 1990s, a group of journalism students at Northwestern University were able to bring about such a change in that state. They began investigating some Illinois prisoners who claimed to be innocent. Through DNA testing, the students were able to prove that in fact the prisoners were not guilty of the crimes they had been accused of. Thirteen of these men were set free, and in 2000, Governor Ryan of Illinois decided to stop carrying out death sentences until further study could be made of the prisoners cases. The use of DNA in criminal cases is still being debated around the world. Some fear that governments will one day keep records of everyone’s DNA, which could put limits on the privacy and freedom of citizens. Other people mistrust the science of DNA testing and think that lawyers use it to get their clients free whether or not they are guilty. But for those whose innocence has been proven and who are now free men. DNA testing has meant nothing less than a return to life. And with the careful use of DNA testing, no innocent person should ever be convicted again.
