    You believe that all liquids flow downwards, don't you? Try the　　 following experiment and you will think again.

    Get a bottle filled with the gas helium (氦) and plug it up. Cool　　 it to a very low temperature. The gas will form a liquid. Now pull out　　 the plug at the top. You will be astonished to see the liquid　　 immediately escape by moving up the inner side of the bottle and then　　 down the outer side. If you want to fill a bottle with liquid helium,　　 simply stand it in the liquid. The liquid will start climbing into the　　 bottle by itself until the levels outside and inside are the same.

    So, the first requisite for a scientist is: DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING　　 FOR GRANTED.

   (1) What is the major difference between liquid helium and other liquids?　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　   ［　　］ 　　   A. It becomes active at a very low temperature. 　　   B. It can escape from a closed bottle. 　　   C. It moves upwards as well as downwards. 　　   D. It moves upwards instead of downwards.  　　(2) What will happen if you pull out the plug of the small bottle 　　   which is inside the big jar in Figure 1? Which picture in 　　   Figure 2 represents (表示) the result?　　　　　　  ［　　］ 　　　　  　　(3) What is the main purpose of the passage?　　　　　　［　　］ 　　   A. To teach people a lesson in chemistry. 　　   B. To tell people how to do an experiment. 　　   C. To interest people in an unusual scientific fact. 　　   D. To encourage people to ask for facts to support correct 　　　　  statement (陈述).

阅读下列短文，从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

　　According to Alvin Toffler, author of the best seller Future Shock, America has become a throwaway society. Cardboard milk containers and rockets are only two examples. Such products are created for short - term or one - time use. They are becoming more numerous and more important to modem living. Toffler thinks that man's relationships with things will grow increasingly temporary.

　　As proof of this trend (趋势), Toffler gives examples of such products as disposable diapers (一次性尿布), kleenes (面巾纸), and non - returnable bottles. Vegetables are encased in plastic sacks. They can be dropped into a pan of boiling water and thrown away after the meal. TV dinners are cooked in throwaway trays. They are even served in them.

　　All these things are quickly used up. Then they are ruthlessly eliminated (永远消除). In Toffler's view, the American home has become little more than a large processing (加工) plant. Toffler further believes that his countrymen are developing throwaway values to go with their throwaway products. He says that easy disposability leads to shorter man - thing relationships. People were once linked with a few objects for a long time. Now they are linked with a series of objects for brief period.

3．What does Toffler mean by saying the American home has little more than a large processing plant?

[　　]

A．In America there are a large number of plants in the neighbourhood.

B．The American home is like a big consuming (消费) factory.

C．The American home is becoming a small processing factory.

D．Each home is a plant where processing of products is done.
