5.Expensive perfumes (香水) come in tiny bottles,but many hide a whale-sized secret.
To perfect a particular smell,perfume-makers often use an ingredient that comes from sperm whales,called ambergris.But using ambergris,which helps a perfume last longer,is strongly opposed by many people who think it is wrong to kill whales just so we can smell sweet.Joerg Bohlmann is neither a perfumer nor a whale expert.He's a plant biologist at the University of British Columbia in Canada.But his discovery of a new plant gene (基因) might push whales out of the perfume business.
The gene comes from fir trees,found throughout North America and commonly used as Christmas trees.The trees produce a chemical that can be used in perfume in place of ambergris--but with a catch.
"There's a problem that many people wouldn't consider.In the tree,the chemical is mixed with many others.That makes separation a challenge,"Bohlmann says."It's like trying to isolate sugar from a biscuit."
This is where science becomes useful.When Bohlmann learned that fir trees produce the ambergris-like chemical,he decided to use his gene know-how to find the instructions for how to make the ambergris-substitute.
Bohlmann found that gene and took it out of the tree cells.Then he did something that might sound strange to someone who doesn't work in genetics:Bohlmann put the gene from the tree into yeast (酵母) cells.
Yeast may sound familiar because it's used to make things like bread,wine and beer.Biologists like to work with yeast because it easily adopts new genes and changes its features and behaviour.When Bohlmann put the fir tree gene into the yeast,the yeast started making the same chemical that had been produced by the tree.
Perfumers pay big money for ambergris because it is a fixative,which means it holds a smell in place on a person's body.
"Cheap perfumes smell good in the first hour or so and then everything is gone,"explains Bohlmann."But expensive perfumes are much more stable.Their smell lasts much longer,for hours or even a day after you apply them."
The new chemical,made from the tree genes,can be used as a fixative,too.And using yeast to make it is far cheaper than acquiring ambergris.
Bohlmann admits he never thought he'd get into the perfume business.But now,he says,producers have been calling to find out how to use his technology in new perfumes.

41.It can be inferred from the passage that if a perfume contains ambergris,D
A.its user probably supports whale hunting
B.its smell will last for about an hour
C.there will be a whale symbol on the bottle
D.it is probably very expensive
42.The underlined expression"with a catch"in Paragraph 3meansB
A.being difficult to hold               B.having a hidden problem
C.needing further testing               D.being too similar
43.According to the passage,why are yeast cells often used in genetic research?A
A.They can take on the characteristics of other genes.
B.They can reproduce much faster than other cells.
C.They share some of the qualities of plant genes.
D.They're much cheaper to use than ambergris.
44.What can we learn about Joerg Bohlmann from the passage?D
A.He is opposed to whale hunting.
B.He made his discovery during Christmas.
C.He has worked in the perfume industry for many years.
D.He has previously done genetic research.
45.What is the best title for the passage?C
A.The Christmas tree's secret
B.The sweet smell of success
C.Whale-free perfume
D.Save the whale.

It is a seller's market.Homebuyers feel like they have to feel like they have to offer at least 10 percent more than the asking price.Donna,a new owner of a one-bedroom apartment in Venice Beach,said,"that's what i did,i told the owner that whatever anyone offers you,i'll give you 20,000 dollars more,under the table,so you don't have to pay your realtor any of it.I was tired of looking."

B.everyone is concerned about the housing price

The weather was very good in Atlantis,and therefore people could grow food all year around.Many different kinds of vegetables,fruits and nuts grew there,and a lot of different animals lived on the island,including elephants.

A.Because Atlantis was a centre for trade.
B.Because the people of Atlantis were hard working.

3.Day Trips from Sydney:A Short Tour of the Blue Mountain
Here is a suggested short tour of the Blue Mountains that you can easily follow in a day from your base in Sydney.
From the center of Sydney,head towards Parramatta and join the M4highway at Stratified.After you leave the highway at Lapstone,you will drive through a series of small towns.
Stop at Subline Point,near the town of Leura.
There is short,step climb down to the lookout point.You need to walk carefully,as there is just enough space for two people to pass on the uneven steps that border a very sharp drop down the mountain.
When you reach the lookout at Subline Point,you are rewarded for the somewhat scary walk by the most wonderful,breathtaking panoramic view of the mountain.
The Three Sisters at Echo Point,near the town of Katoomba.
Take a ride on the aerial cable car for a more close-up view of the Three Sisters and to appreciate just how steep the mountains are.You can also experience the world's steepest railway incline by taking the scenic railway.
Visit Katoomba Waterfall.
Katoomba is a good place to stop for lunch,with cafes and restaurants in its long main street.
On the outskirts of Katoomba,visit Katoomba Falls where a waterfall cascades down the steep,tree-covered mountain.The Katoomba Falls Kiosk is a good place to sit on a sofa and relax with a cup of coffee.
Outside Blackheath,head for Hargraves Lookout.
Hargraves Lookout is a good place to visit because there are very few tourists.There are no steep drops on the way,although there is a walk from the lower lookout point into the bush that looks very steep.
Once you have visited Hargraces Lookout,you could head back to Sydney.
56.Which of the following can best describe your journey to Subline Point?B
A.No root,no fruit              
B.High risk,high reward
C.Easy come,easy go.
D.First come,first served
57.Which is the quietest and easiest scenic spot for visitors?D

2.A university degree is no (51)C of a job,and job hunting in itself requires a whole set of skills.if you find you are not getting past the first interview,ask yourself what is happening.Is it a(n) (52)A to communicate or are there some skills you lack?And find out what you need t do to bring yourself up to the level of (53)D that would make you more attractive t them.
Do not be too discouraged if you are (54)B for a job,but think about the reasons the employers give.Those who made the second interview might have been studying the same subject as you and be of (55)C ability level,but they had something which made them a (56)A match to the selector's ideal.That could be experience gained through projects or vacation work,or it might be that they were better at communicating what they could offer.Do not take the comments at (57)B value:think back to the interviews that generated them and make a list of where you think the shortfall in your performance lies.With this sort of analytical approach you will eventually get your foot in the door.
Deciding how long you should stay in your first job is a tough call.Stay too long and future employers may question your (58)D and ambition.Of course,it depends on where you are aiming.If you are a graduate,spending five or six years in the same job is not too long provided that you take full advantage of the (59)B.However,do not use this as a(n) (60)C for lacking interest or enthusiasm.Graduates sometimes fail to take ownership of their careers and take the initiative.It is up to you to make the most of what's available within a company,and to monitor progress in case you need to (61)C.This applies particularly if you are still not sure where your career path lies.
It is helpful to think through what kind of experience you need to get your (62)B job and it is not a problem to move around to a certain extent.But in the (63)D stages of your career you need a definite strategy for reaching your goal,so think about that carefully before deciding to step forward from your first job.You must cultivate (64)A to be competent for any role.There is no guarantee that you will get adequate training,and research has shown that if you do not receive proper help in a new role,it can take 18months to (65)C it.
