Rice is the most widely consumed food for a large part of the world's human population,especially in Asia.It is the most important crop with regard to human nutrition and caloric intake,(61)providing (provide) more than one-fifth of the calories consumed worldwide by (62)humans(human).

9.From losing weight to quitting smoking,each December people around the world make a New Year's resolution(决心).But studies have shown that despite their best effort,most will fail.
Professor Peter Herman,a psychology lecturer at the University of Toronto says that the reasons why resolutions fail are clear."They are not realistic in some or all of the following respects:people think that they can change themselves more quickly; they think that they can change much more than anyone else; or they think they can change everything more easily."
Professor Herman suggests that the issue may be a cycle of failure and renewed effort.which he calls"the false-hope syndrome"(虚妄期盼综合征).The cycle begins with a difficult self-change task.such as overeating or smoking-common yet rarely successful changes.While people may make some initial progress in the task,eventually they fail to achieve their goal.Having failed,they interpret their failure to convince themselves that with a few adjustments they will succeed.Finally,they begin to embark on another attempt,and the cycle repeats.
In his paper on the topic,Professor Herman and his co-author,Janet Polivy,write,"People tend to make the same resolutions year after year,vowing on average l0 times to get rid of a particular vice (恶习)."Obviously,every renewed vow represents a certain failure; otherwise,there would be no need for yet another attempt.Equally obviously,unsuccessful attempts do not decrease the chance of making future palls for self-change.Even those who are finally successful at sticking to their resolutions make the attempt five or six times on average before succeeding.
Expecting to make a breakthrough is not a good way,so Professor Herman says that the best way of sticking to your resolution is to expect the changes little by little rather than a major transformation.He told Mail Online,"Often this means scaling back (缩减) your resolution to something that is actually manageable."

32.Why do most people fail in their New Year's resolutions according to Professor Herman?B
A.They doesn't do their best at all.
B.They make unrealistic resolutions.
C.They want to stay unchanged.
D.They change them frequently.
33.What does the underlined part"embark on"in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A
A.Undertake.B.Abandon.C.Welcome.D.Represent.
34.How can you achieve your New Year's resolutions in Professor Herman's opinion?C
A.Set a big resolution.
B.Make a breakthrough.
C.Expect gradual changes.
D.Believe in yourself.
35.What may be the best title for the text?D
A.Actions Speak Louder Than Words   
B.Think Twice Before You Do
C.A Bargain Is a Bargain     
D.Good Plan Is Half Done.

16.Unless you are like Nasty Gal's founder Sophia Amoruso,the passwords you use to access your email and the endless other accounts you need for work aren't filled with intention.With increasing security requirements,it's likely your word/number combinations are becoming even less memorable.But new research suggests it may not be long before you won't need to memorize passwords.
"Brainprint",published in Neurocomputing,reveals that the brain's reaction to certain words could be a unique identifying code-like a fingerprint-that could eventually replace passwords.
In a small experiment,the researchers measured the brains'signals of 45volunteers as they read through a list of 75acronyms such as FBI and DVD.The word-recognition response differed so much between each participant that a second experiment using a computer program could identify each one with 94% accuracy.
It's not enough to feel totally secure,but promising enough to hint at the future of securing sensitive information.
The advantage of using such a biometric system (生物识别系统) is that it can be used for continuous verification (验证),New Scientist points out.Passwords or fingerprints only provide a tool for one-off identification.Continuous verification could in theory allow someone to interact with many computer systems at the same time or even with a variety of intelligent objects,without having to repeatedly enter passwords for each device.
As Hollywood has illustrated,it's simply a matter of cutting off a finger to steal that person's identity."Brainprints,on the other hand,are potentially cancellable,"said Sarah Laszlo,assistant professor of psychology and linguistics at Binghamton University and co-author of the study,"So,in the unlikely event that attackers were actually able to steal a brainprint from an authorized user,the authorized user could then‘reset'their brainprint."
Until now,brain signals have been a challenge to understand.This experiment leaped over the obstacle by focusing on the brainwaves from the specific area that reads and recognizes words.The signal is therefore clearer and easier to measure.
The problem,so far,is that the brain signal is still not as accurate as scanning someone's fingerprint,and initially requires sticking diodes (二极管) on your head in order to get a read.That's ok,according to Zhanpeng Jin,assistant professor at Binghamton University and coauthor of the study,because brainprint isn't going to be mass-produced any time soon.He says the researchers foresee its use at places such as the Pentagon,where the number of authorized users is small,and they don't need to be continuously verified the way you do to access your mobile device or email.
Better keep your memory sharp,at least a little while longer.

63.In paragraph 5,"one-off identification"refers to the identification thatD.
A.happens as part of a regular series   
B.interacts with intelligent objects
C.can be verified continuously   
D.needs repeated verification
64.According to Sarah Laszlo,B.
A.fingerprints can be canceled once stolen  
B.brainprints are theft-proof and resettable
C.attackers can steal and replace brainprints 
D.users have the authority to cancel brainprints
65.It can be inferred from the passage thatC.
A.brainprints will sharpen users'memory
B.brainprints will become easier to be measured
C.brainprints will receive narrow application
D.brainprints will eventually replace fingerprints
66.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A
A.Brainprints:A New Way to Replace Passwords
B.Brainprints:A Unique Device to Identify Codes
C.Brainprints:A Quicker Way to Access Your Email
D.Brainprints:A Securer Device to Identify Brain Signals.
