1. Scientists and experts have proved the uniqueness of finger-prints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case.
The ridge (隆起) structure on a person's fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by surface injuries.Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new one, which bears a reproduction of the original pattern.2. Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own finger-prints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.
Finger-prints can be made very easily with printer's ink.They can by recorded easily.3. Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, finger-prints have often been used as a method of solving criminal case.A suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain.4.
When a suspect leaves finger-prints behind at the scene of a crime, they are difficult to detect with the naked eye.
5. Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.
A.Special techniques are used to "develop" them.
B.A fingerprint is an impression of the friction ridges of all part of the finger.
C.It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed.
D.With special methods, identification can be achieved successfully within a short time.
E.A latent print is the chance reproduction of the friction ridges deposited on the surface of an item.
F.His finger-prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.
G.Every human being has a unique arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable.

试题分析: 本文讲述了指纹的唯一性和它在刑事案件侦破中的重要作用。人的指纹是具有唯一性的,人的成长,变老,表皮受伤等都不会改变一个人的指纹,即使只有一小部分也可以通过技术手段绘出人的指纹,正是利用这一点警方才会破获了很多的犯罪案件,但是如果是刀伤,烧毁就无法显示指纹了,但这是很危险的。
1.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据前句内容“科学家们和专家们都证明了指纹的独特性, 并且还发现父母没有遗传给小孩相同的纹路排列,然而没人知道这是为什么”可知这句话提到了指纹的唯一性,而G选项内容“每个人手指上都有着独一无二的纹路排列,而且这种排列是不会改变的,”同样也提到了这一特性,是对上一句内容的进一步补充,故选G
2.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上句内容提到“烫伤,割伤和其它的表皮损害都会被新皮肤给取代,而且还会长出原有的纹路来”,而且第四句说“一些罪犯利用这点而去销毁他们的指纹,但是走这一步是危险和罕见的”,可知如消除指纹特征,表层皮肤受损不会改变特征,那么只有深层皮肤受损可改变了,故选C。
3.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。前句内容是“由于这种系统的简单和经济,指纹鉴定已经经常被用作解决刑事案件一种方法,可知指纹的唯一性可指证身份”,而D项内容是“使用特殊的方法,身份确认可以在很短时间内成功的达成”,内容符合语境,故选D。
4.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。由前句内容“嫌疑犯可以否认对他的指控但是这也许是在徒劳”,可知由于指纹唯一性,即使年龄、面貌或其他特征改变,指纹也不会变,而F项意思“即使他的外表或许因为年龄或者事故而改变,但是他的指纹能证明他是谁”,内容可以承接上文,故选F。
5.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上文提到“当一个嫌疑犯在犯罪现场留下指纹印的时候,是很难用肉眼察觉的”,而A项内容是“特殊的技术被用于使之现形”,内容符合语境,可以承接上文,故选A。

Hurricane Sandy was a hurricane that destroyed parts of the Caribbean and the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern United States during late October 2012, with minor impacts in the Southeastern and Midwestern states and Eastern Canada. Sandy, classified as the eighteenth named storm and tenth hurricane of the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season, was a Category 2 storm at its peak intensity. While it was a Category 1 storm off the coast of the Northeastern United States, the storm became the largest Atlantic hurricane on record. Previous estimates of losses due to damage and business interruption are estimated at $65.6 billion, which would make it the second-costliest Atlantic hurricane, behind only Hurricane Katrina. At least 253 people were killed along the path of the storm in eight countries.
Sandy developed from a tropical wave in the western Caribbean Sea on October 22, quickly strengthened, and was upgraded to Tropical Storm six hours later. Sandy moved slowly northward toward the Greater Antilles and gradually becoming stronger. On October 24, Sandy became a hurricane, made landfall near Kingston, Jamaica, a few hours later, entered into the Caribbean Sea again and strengthened into a Category 2 hurricane. On October 25, Sandy hit Cuba, and then weakened to a Category 1 hurricane. Early on October 26, Sandy moved through the Bahamas. On October 27, Sandy briefly weakened to a tropical storm and then restrengthened to a Category 1 hurricane. Early on October 29, Sandy turned from north to northwest and then moved ashore near Atlantic City, New Jersey, as a post-tropical cyclone with hurricane-force winds.
In the United States, Hurricane Sandy affected 24 states, including the entire eastern seaboard from Florida to Maine and west across the Appalachian Mountains to Michigan and Wisconsin, with particularly severe damage in New Jersey and New York. Its storm hit New York City on October 29, flooding streets, tunnels and subway lines and cutting power in and around the city. Damage in the US is estimated at over $63 billion.
