In old times,man considered lightning to be one of the great mysteries(神秘事物)of nature.In fact a single flash of lightning 1.6 kilometers long has enough electricity to light one million lamps.
The American scientist,Benjamin Franklin,was the first to suggest that lightning is in fact electricity formed between the earth and clouds high above.It happened in 1752.In the same year,he also built the first lightning rod(避雷针)to protect buildings from being struck by lightnings.
Modern science has discovered that lightning is very strong and powerful.A lightning between a cloud and the earth may be as long as 13 kilometers,and travels at a speed of 30 million meters per second.Scientists have the opinion that there are about 2000 million flashes of lightning per year.In the United States alone,it kills almost one person per day.
The safest place to be in during an electrical(电的)storm is a closed car.Outside,one should go close to low ground for cover and not stop under a tree.Also one should stay out of water and away from metal fences.Inside a house people should keep away from open doorways and windows and not touch wires or metal things.

Scientists are placing robotic dogs in the homes of lonely old people to test whether they can improve the quality of life for humans. Alan Beck, an expert(专家) in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, are leading the animal-assisted study on the effect of robotic dogs on old people’s depression (沮丧) , physical activity, and life satisfaction.
In the study, the robot, called AIBO, is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who live alone. Before placing AIBO in the home, scientists will collect baseline data(数据) for six weeks. These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activity before and after AIBO. Then, the scientists will review the data to test if it has produced any changes in the life of its owner.
“I talk to him all the time, and he responds to my voice,” says a seventy-year-old lady. “When I’m watching TV, he’ll stay in my arms until he wants down. He has his own mind.”
The AIBOs respond to certain orders. The scientists say they have some advantages over live dogs, especially for old people. Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it. A robotic dog removes exercise and feeding concerns.
“At the beginning, it was believed that no one would relate(与……相关) to the robotic dog, because it was metal and not furry.” Beck says. “Hopefully, down the road, these robotic pets could become a more-valuable health helper. They will record their masters’ blood pressure, oxygen levels or heart rhythms(心律). AIBOs may even one day have games that can help stimulate(刺激) older people’s minds.”
【小题1】The purpose of Beck and Edwards’ study is to _____________.
| A.understand human-animal relationship |
| B.make lonely old people’s life better |
| C.find the causes of old people’s loneliness |
| D.improve the animal-assisted research |
| A.note the activities of AIBOs |
| B.keep AIBOs at home for 12 weeks |
| C.record their feelings and activity |
| D.study the collected information |
| A.moves again | B.is movable | C.doesn’t need | D.need |
| A.It is easier to keep at home. |
| B.It can help the disabled people. |
| C.It responds to all the human orders. |
| D.It can watch TV with its owner. |
| A.cure certain diseases | B.keep old people active |
| C.change people’s ideas | D.look more like real dogs |
Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!
Parapsychologists (灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a“sixth sense”really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist (心理学家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.
In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared(盯着)at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects(受试者)were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.
For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they’re being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker,“I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”
【小题1】The aim of the two experiments is to ________.
| A.explain when people can have a sixth sense |
| B.study how people act while being watched in the lab |
| C.study whether humans can sense when they are stared at |
| D.prove why humans have a sixth sense |
| A.value | B.result | C.performance | D.connection |
| A.could tell when they were stared at |
| B.could tell where they weren’t stared at |
| C.couldn’t tell who they were stared at or who they stared at |
| D.couldn’t tell when they were stared at or when they weren’t |
| A.People are born with a sixth sense. |
| B.The experiments support parapsychologists’ idea. |
| C.The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments. |
| D.People have a sixth sense in all places. |
