13．Around the world coral reefs（珊瑚礁） are facing threats（威胁） brought by climate change and great changes in sea temperatures．While ocean warming has been the primary focus for scientists and ocean policy managers，cold events can also whiten corals．A new study by scientists compared damaged to corals exposed to heat as well as cold stress．The results show that cool temperatures can cause more damage in the short term，but heat is more destructive（破坏性的） in the long run．
Climate change is widely known to produce warming conditions in the oceans，but extreme cold-water events have become more frequent and serious as well．In 2010，for example，coral reefs around the world faced one of the coldest winters and one of the hottest summers on record．
During a unique experiment，corals under cold temperatures suffered greater damage in just days compared with heat treated corals．Yet the researchers found that corals were eventually able to adjust to the cold conditions，make their health stable and continue to grow．However，over the long term corals subjected to heat suffered more greatly than those in cold，with evidence of severe whitening and growth stoppage，which leads to death．
The coral's ability to adjust to cool temperatures surprised the researchers，who say the study's results show the complexities（复杂性） of monitoring coral health in response to different environmental factors（因素）．
"Global warming is associated with increases but also decreases of temperatures，"said Deheyn，one of the researchers．"Not much has been known about the comparative effects of temperature decrease on corals．These results are important because they show that corals react differently to temperature differences，which is important for future management of coral reefs in the field of climate change．"

72．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？B
A．Corals are unable to adjust to temperature changes．
B．Heat and cold damage corals in their own ways．
C．Cold temperature causes greater damage to corals．
D．Hot temperature helps coral reefs to grow quickly．
73．We can learn from the passage thatB．
A．scientists used to pay no attention to the effect of cold events on corals
B.2010witnessed one of the greatest temperature differences on record
C．corals prefer warmer conditions to cold temperatures in the long run
D．global warming has nothing to do with the decrease of temperature
74．According to the research，D．
A．cold events help corals grow more quickly in a short time
B．corals show no response to hot temperatures in the first days
C．corals are whitened mainly because of warm temperatures
D．corals may continue to grow in cold events after a few days
75．Scientists reached the conclusion throughA．
A．scientific study B．news report C．great imagination D．natural conditions．

3．In today's fiercely competitive business environment，companies need to communicate information concerning a whole range of issues in a clear and precise manner to their customers．This  is  particularly so in the case of companies which do business in areas such as manufacturing，information technology（IT），engineering products and services-companies whose products and services may not be understood by a customer not familiar with its technical aspects．
These communication materials are prepared in a company these days by"technical writers"-people who can effectively communicate to an Intended audience．
Technical writing and writing text-books are poles apart．The former is aimed at those who do not have an in-depth knowledge about a product and therefore should be direct and easy to Understand．Too many technical terms would only add to the confusion of the customer．Technical writers first need to understand the technical information themselves，before trying to communicate it in easier 1anguage to the customers．Even graduates of English literature are often found  wanting when it comes to creative and effective writing．
This simply means that those with a Bachelor's degree in English Literature along with a  diploma/degree in Journalism and having a Post Graduate Diploma in Computer Applications （PGDCA）are ideal（理想的）candidates for being employed as technical writers．
A career in technical writing is seen as a good choice for women mainly because it is widely held that women are more gifted in creative writing than men and the job does not involve too much travelling or working at night．

32．What are"technical writers"supposed to do？A
A．To write about the company's products or services in clear，easy language．
B．To write about the company's products using correct technical terms．
B．To effectively communicate to an intended audience by writing letters．
D．To travel around to persuade people to buy the company's products or services．
33．Which of the following best explains the underlined word"wanting"in Paragraph 3？D
A．Being needed．
B．Wanting to write．
C．Hoping to be employed．
D．Lacking in ability．
34．What would happen if many technical terms are used in technical writing？C
A．It would sound too formal．
B．It would help engineers a lot．
C．It would confuse the customer．
D．It would produce a better effect．
35．Who would be the best candidate for a technical writer？B
A．A man with degrees in English literature and Journalism and a PGDCA．
