21、y sudden movement will frighten the animal into striking. He speaks quickly, the tone of his voice so arresting that it quietens everyone. “I want to know what control everyone here has. I will count three hundredthats five minutes and not one of you is to move a muscle. Ready!”The 20 people sit lik

22、e stone images while he counts. He is saying, “two hundred and eighty” When out of the corner of his eyes, he sees the snake make for the bowl of milk. Four or five screams ring out as he jumps to close the balcony doors.“There is your proof!” the host shouts. “A man has just shown us perfect self-c

28、ces.The fascination with the ICT(Information and Communication Technology) revolution, represented by the Internet, has made some rich countries wrongly conclude that making things is so yesterday that they should try to live on ideas. This belief in post-industrial society has led those countries t

29、o neglect their manufacturing sector(制造業(yè)) with negative consequences for their economies.Even more worryingly, the fascination with the Internet by people in rich countries has moved the international community to worry about the digital divide between the rich countries and the poor countries. This

30、 has led companies and individuals to donate money to developing countries to buy computer equipment and Internet facilities.

32、ncy programmes without carefully assessing the relative long-term costs and benefits of alternative uses of their money.In yet another example, a fascination with the new has led people to believe that the recent changes in the technologies of communications and transportation are so revolutionary t

33、hat now we live in a borderless world. As a result, in the last twenty years or so, many people have come to believe that whatever change is happening today is the result of great technological progress, going against which will be like trying to turn the clock back. Believing in such a world, many

34、governments have put an end to some of the very necessary regulations on cross-border flows of capital, labour and goods, with poor results.Understanding technological trends is very important for correctly designing economic policies, both at the national and the international levels, and for makin

35、g the right career choices at the individual level.

36、technologyB. a slow progress in technologyC. a conflict of public opinionsD. a waste of limited resources29.The example in Paragraph 4 suggests that donators should _.A. take peoples essential needs into accountB. make their programmes attractive to peopleC. ensure that each child gets financial sup

40、out competition, Columbus wouldnt have discovered America and Edison would never have invented the light bulb.Friendship, like all relationships between two people, involves competition. It isnt competition in a traditional sense because there are no goals to be scored and no prize. Perhaps the ecol

41、ogical definition - the simultaneous (同時(shí)) demand by two or more organisms for limited environmental resources, such as nutrinents, living space, or light - better explains it.As in nature, high school life is governed by a set of laws, similar to a shortened version of Darwins theory of evolution, o

In high school, friendships learn to coexist with competition even though at times the relationship is rough. In fact, in some circumstance, competition is

43、 too much of a burden for a friendship to bear, causing it to fall apart. College admission is the final high school objective. Four years of hard work is to achieve good grades, and a students fate is determined not only by these achievements, but by the records of thousands of other seniors trying

44、 to achieve a similar recognition.Nevertheless, by necessity, competition between students exists in all aspects of high school life. It sets and improves the standards in everything from sports to schoolwork. A healthy, friendly competition can have only benefits, but when it becomes too fierce, je
