Ethanol(乙醇);Clean and Cheap Fuel
Many Americans concerned about air pollution are demanding cleaner supplies of energy. The demand has resulted in increased research about ethanol fuel. Ethanol is an alcohol that can be mixed with gas. It burns up most of the pollutants(污染物)in gas. It replaces some of the chemicals that are known to cause cancer, and it can be produced in the United States.
Some experts say that in the future ethanol will replace some of the oil imported into America. Today ethanol is less than one percent of total American fuel supply. The head of the National Corn Growers Association, Kieve Hard, says ethanol will provide twenty-five percent of the fuel supply by 2010. the organization is involved in the production of ethanol because it can be made from corn.
One company in the American Midwest says it is starting to produce ethanol because of demands from people and from the government. The Congress approved the Clean Air Act in 1990. the company says this means the market for ethanol will expand. The company is a major producer of corn starch(淀粉)that can be used to make ethanol.
At Texas A and M University Professor Mark Holzapple produces ethanol form materials found in solid waste. He has developed a way to turn materials like paper into simple sugar. He then uses yeast(酵母)to turn the sugar into ethanol. Professor Holzapple says two hundred liters of ethanol fuel can be produced from one ton of solid waste.
A professor at the university of Arkansas, John Geddie, is exploring another way to make ethanol. He is using acids on paper material. He says a large factory could produce ethanol form waste paper at a cost about the same as the cost of producing gasoline.
Environmentalists support the use of ethanol because it turns solid waste into a useful product. Professor Holzapple says law makers in industrial nations need to support the development of this clean, less expensive fuel of the future.
59.Why does the interest in ethanol fuel increase in the United States according to the passage?
A.Ethanol products are known to cause cancer
B.Ethanol can remove some harmful pollutants form gas.
C.The production of ethanol is protected by law

C.play an increasingly important role in the future fuel supply
D.reduce the supply of grains used to produce food

B.may increase the cost of producing gas.
C.reflects the views of the government on automobile production
D.limits the ethanol production of one company in the American Midwest
62.The author mentions all of the following resources for making ethanol except ____.

Culture determines what kind of thinking is important and what kind is not so important. Learners use the language, tools and practice of their culture to learn concepts. Although students have their individual learning styles, their learning styles are often combined with cultural values. For example, Navajo children often learn first by observing and listening . Then , when ready, they continue learning on their own in groups and under the supervision(监视)of an adult. In this way, the children learn all the skills they need. Navajo children speak very little during this process. In contrast, many African-American children learn effectively by acting and performing. They like classroom activities such as oral presentations, role-plays, and performances. Lots of talking is useful for these students. Another ways of learning is through reading and writing. Asian students generally need writing to support their learning, and therefore do well in classes where there is lots of writing. It is common to see Japanese students pay special attention to the spelling of words they have learned. They are more comfortable seeing new materials than hearing them. Koreans are believed to be the most visual(can be seen) learners. So, although learning styles greatly determine how a person takes in new materials , one’s culture also influences how he learns.

As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.
Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing as it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is important to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.
The amount of stress a person can withstand(承受) depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress and such characters are obviously prime(主要的)material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make a choice between “flight or fight” and in more primitive(原始的)days the choices made the difference between life and death. The crises(危机)we meet today are unlikely to be so extremely, but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction last long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart diseases have established links with stress. Since we can’t remove stress from our lives, we need to find ways to deal with it.
72.People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because ____.
A.they do not know how to enjoy themselves
B.they do not believe that relaxation is important for health.
C.They are traveling fast all the time
D.They are becoming busier with their work.
73.According to the writer , the most important character for a good manager is his ____.
A.not fearing stress B.knowing the art of relaxation
C.high sense of responsibility D.having control over performance
74.Which of the following statements is true?
A.We can find some way avoid stress
B.Stress is always harmful to people
C.It is easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work.
D.Different people can withstand different amount of stress.
75.In paragraph 3, “Such a reaction” refers back to ____.
A.making a choice between “flight or fight”
B.reaction to stress both chemically and physically
C.responding to crises quickly
D.losing heart at the signs of difficulties
