  第一篇

  Mobile Phones

  Mobile phones should carry a label if they proved(1) to be a dangerous source of radiation, according to Robert Bell, a scientist. And no more mobile phone   transmitter towers should be built until the long-term health effects of the electromagnetic radiation they emit are scientifically evaluated, he said. "Nobody's going to drop dead overnight (2) but we should be asking for more scientific information," Robert Bell said at a conference on the health effects of low-level radiation.  (1)C 

  A report widely circulated among the public says that up to now scientists do not really know enough to guarantee there are no ill-effects on humans from electromagnetic radiation. According to Robert Bell, there are 3.3 million mobile phones in Australia alone and they are increasing by (3) 2,000 a day   (2) B  

  As well, there are 2,000 transmitter towers around Australia, many in high density residential areas (5).   (3)E   The electromagnetic radiation emitted from these towers may have already produced some harmful effects on the health of the residents nearby.

  Robert Bell suggests that until more research is completed the Government should ban construction of phone towers from within a 500 metre radius of school grounds, child care centres, hospitals, sports playing fields and residential areas with a high percentage of children.  (4) A  He adds that there is also evidence that if cancer sufferers are subjected to electromagnetic waves the growth rate of the disease accelerates.

      (5)D   According to Robert Bell, it is reasonable for the major telephone companies to fund it. Besides, he also urges the Government to set up a wide ranging inquiry into possible health effects.

  词汇:

  mobile / ˈ məubail/ adj.移动的

  electromagnetic / ɪˌlektrəʊmægˈnetɪk / adj.  电磁的

  transmitter tower / trænzˈmitə/  发射塔

  shield  / ʃi:ld /n.  隔离屏

  circulate / ˈsə:kjuleit /v.  流传

  density / ˈdensiti /n.  密度

  disregard / ˌdisriˈɡɑ:d/V.  不顾

  accelerate / ækˈseləreit /  加速,加快

  注释:

  1.  动词prove用的是过去式形 proved,这是一种虚拟语气表示假设的用法。

  2.  Nobody's going to drop dead overnight...:“没有人会在一个晚上倒地死去…… overnight是副词,意为“一夜间:一下子;整夜”。如:

  This stadium was not built overnight.这个体育场不是一下子建起来的。    On his way to Europe, John stayed with his parents in Chicago overnight.

  3. 介词by表示“以……(的速度增加)”。

  4. 介词by表示“到……前”。如:

  By Thursday morning you should complete writing the experiment report.    the year 2000:公元2000年

  5.  many in high density residential areas:是独立分词短语。注意它省略了being,即many (being) in high density residential areas.此外,many指的是many transmitter towers.

  6. at a rate more than three times that of adults可以理解为at a rate (that is) more than three times that of adults,意为“以比成人多两倍的比率……”,短语中的that指代rate.倍数的表达法是:“数字+ times+名词/that”。如:

  His salary is three times that of mine.

  练习:

  A 3). He  says there is emerging evidence that children absorb low-level radiation at a rate more than three that at of adults(6).

  B1). By the year 2000(4) it is estimated that Australia will have 8 million mobile phones: nearly one for every two people.

  C2). "If mobile phones are found to be dangerous, they should carry a warning label until proper shields can be devised," he said.

  D5). Then who finances the research?

  E4) .For example, Telstra, Optus and Vodaphone build their towers where it is geographically suitable to them and disregard the need of the community.  .

  F6). The conclusion is that mobile phones brings more harm than benefit.

  答案与题解:

  1.  C   “空l”应该填入与low-level radiation有关的内容,例如low-level radiation究竟有害还是无害。所以,C是合适的选项。此外,直接引语也佐证了选择的合理性。

  2.  B  “空2”前面一句介绍了澳大利亚拥有手机的现状。选项B的内容是对到2000年年底之前手机发展前景的预测,内容连贯,是正确答案。

  3.  E    这一段的第一句说的是,许多微波发射塔建在人口稠密的居民区。选项E的内容涉及微波发射塔的地点选择只考虑到地理位置,而不顾及公众的需求。选项E扩展了第一句表达的信息。此外,选项E中出现tower这个词,与第一句的tower相呼应,  也佐证了选择的合理性。    .

  4.  A    “空4”前面一句说的是Robert Bell建议政府应该禁止在学校操场、儿童日托中心、医院、运动场所以及儿童占比例较高的居住场所方圆500米范围内建造发射塔。选项A说明要这样做的原因,因而是答案。

  5.  D    “空5”后面一句说的是major telephone companies出钱资助研究项日的问题,提示了D是正确答案。
