Title:The Best Invention of the Year: NASA's Ares RocketsBy JEFFREY KLUGER Thursday, Nov. 12, 2009Lead:Metal has no DNA; machines have no genes. But that doesn't mean they don't have pedigrees — ancestral lines every bit as elaborate as our own. That's surely the case with the Ares 1 rocket. The best and smartest and coolest thing built in 2009 — a machine that can launch human beings to cosmic destinations we'd never considered before — is the fruit of a very old family tree, one with branches grand, historic and even wicked.Body:There are a lot of reasons astronauts haven't moved beyond the harbor lights of low-Earth orbit in nearly 40 years, but one of them is that we haven't had the machines to take us anywhere else. The space shuttle is a flying truck: fine for the lunch-bucket work of hauling cargo a couple of hundred miles into space, but nothing more. In 2004, however, the U.S. committed itself to sending astronauts back to the moon and later to Mars, and for that, you need something new and nifty for them to fly. The answer is the Ares 1, which had its first unmanned flight on Oct. 28 and dazzled even the skeptics.From a distance, the rocket is unprepossessing — a slender white stalk that looks almost as if it would twang in the Florida wind. But up close, it's huge: about 327 ft. (100 m) tall, or the biggest thing the U.S. has launched since the 363-ft. (111 m) Saturn V moon rockets of the early 1970s. Its first stage is a souped-up version of one of the shuttle's solid-fuel rockets; its top stage is a similarly muscled-up model of the Saturn's massive J2 engines.If that general body plan doesn't exactly break ground, that's the point. NASA tried breaking ground with the shuttles and in doing so broke all the rules. Shuttle astronauts sit alongside the fuel — next to the exploding motor that claimed Challenger, beneath the chunks of falling foam that killed Columbia. Andwhen you fly a spacecraft repeatedly as opposed to chucking it after a single use, there's a lot of wear to repair.When NASA engineers gathered to plan the next generation of America's rockets, they thus decided to go back to the future — way back. The Saturn V was the brainchild of Wernher von Braun, the German scientist whose bright genius gave the U.S. its finest line of rockets — and whose dark genius gave Hitler the V2 missile that rained terror on London. Von Braun had, in turn, drawn insights from American rocket pioneer Robert Goddard. Goddard built on the work of17th century artillery innovator Kazimierz Siemienowicz, a Pole.The Ares 1 is a worthy descendant of their rockets and others, with lightweight composites, better engines and exponentially improved computers giving it more reliability and power. The Ares 1 will launch an Apollo-like spacecraft with four crew members — perhaps by 2015. Alongside it, NASA is developing the Brobdingnagian Ares V, a 380-ft. (116 m) behemoth intended to put such heavy equipment as a lunar lander in Earth orbit, where astronauts can link up with it before blasting away to the moon. Somewhere between the two rockets is theso-called Ares Lite — a heavy-lift hybrid that could carry both humans and cargo and is intended to be a design that engineers can have in their back pockets if the two-booster plan proves unaffordable.The new rockets could take astronauts to some thrilling places. The biggest costs — and risks — associated with visiting other celestial bodies are from landing and taking off again. But suppose you don't land? An independent commission appointed by the White House to make recommendations for NASA's future recently returned its 154-page report and made strong arguments for bypassing the familiar boots-in-the-soil scenario in favor of a flexible path of flybys and orbits.Under the new thinking, astronauts could barnstorm or circle the moon, Mars and Mars' twin moons, deploying probes to do their rock-collecting and experiments for them. They could similarly sample near-Earth objects like asteroids. They could also travel to what is known as the Lagrange points — aBody: Inverted PyramidThe order of this news:#Lead: We can know from the lead:The Best Invention of 2009 is the NASA's#Background or relevant event: paragraph 3 give us the background and relevant event that the White House once make recommendations for NASA's future but recently returned its 154-page report and made strong arguments . this part is a suspense, which can recatch readers attention. At the end of the news,the reporter goes on to accomplish the unclear suspense by “There's no way of knowing if those projections are too rosy, but if history teaches us anything, it's that the space program's grimmest chapters”英文报刊导读作业考号：152学号：07510130班级：0705姓名：谢伟玲。

胡宇豪，031240118 , 2 ，周一1/2---from Newsweek of April 20thEverest Survivor: 'We Knew It Was an Avalanche But We Couldn't Run Away'By ReutersFiled: 4/19/14 at 6:28 AM | Updated: 4/19/14 at 8:33 AMMount Everest Tim ChongFiled Under: World, Mount Everest, Nepal①KATHMANDU (Reuters) --- Rescuers recovered the body of one mountain guide on Saturday after an ice avalanche swept the lower slopes of Mount Everest, bringing the death toll to at least 13 in thedeadliest accident on the world's highest mountain.(加德满都（路透社）--- 在冰崩席卷整个珠峰后，周六搜救人员的一个下斜坡上发现了一名向导的尸体，使世界上最高的山峰上最致命的事故中死亡的人数上升到了13人。

)The avalanche struck a perilous passage called the Khumbu Icefall, which is riddled with crevasses and piled with serac - or huge chunks of ice - that can break free without warning."We were tied on a rope and carrying gas to camp when there was a sudden hrrrr sound," said Ang Kami Sherpa, 25, one of at least three survivors flown by helicopter to Kathmandu. "We knew it was an avalanche but we couldn't run away or do anything. "There was a big chunk of snow that fell over us and swept us away. It looked like clouds, all white," he said in a hospital intensive care unit where he was being treated for a blood clot on his leg and facial injuries.Climbers declared a four-day halt to efforts to scale the8,848-metre (29,029-ft) summit and, while some decided to abandon their mission, others said they would go ahead after talking to their guides. All of the victims were sherpa mountain guides."Everyone is shaken here at Base Camp，some climbers are packing up and calling it quits, they want nothing to do with this," Tim Rippel of Peak Freaks Expeditions wrote in a blog. Dawa Tashi Sherpa lies on the bed of the Intensive Care Unit at Grandi International Hospital after he was rescued and airlifted from the avalanche site at Mount Everest in Kathmandu April 18, 2014. Navesh Chitrakar/Reuters②Shocked relatives wondered how they would cope without the men who take huge risks to earn up to $5,000 for a two-month expedition -- around 10 times average annual pay in Nepal.(在失去他们之后，震惊的亲戚们不知道如何去应对，他们冒着巨大的危险去参加这次为期两个月的探险来赚取$5000—大约是在尼泊尔时年薪的10倍。

Read the following statements and decide whether they are true (T) or false (F).True: 1、4、5、8False: 2、3、6、7作业（2）Keys:1. Give the definition of the following terms.1) featurea prominent or special article, story, or department in anewspaper or periodical.2) editorialan article in a publication expressing the opinion of its editors or publishers.3) op-edof or being a newspaper page, usually opposite the editorial page, that features signed articles expressing personalviewpoints4) inverted pyramidThe inverted pyramid is a traditional form of writing in which the news is stacked in paragraphs in order of descending importance. The lead summarizes the principal items of a news event. The second paragraph and each succeeding paragraph contain secondary or supporting details in order of decreasing significance. All the paragraphs in the story contain newsworthy information, but each paragraph is less vital than the one before it. Inverted-pyramid form puts the climax of a story at the beginning, in the lead.5) leadA lead is a terse opening paragraph that provides the gist of thestory and invites readers inside.2. What is the difference between hard news and soft news? Hard news events, such as killings, and speeches by leading government officials, are timely and are reported almost automatically by the media. Soft news events, such as a car wash by a fourth-graders to raise money for a classmate with cancer, are not usually considered immediately important or timely to a wide audience. These events still contain elements of news, however, and the media often report them.3. What is the difference between news and features?A news story emphasizes the facts of the event, while the feature displaces the facts to accommodate the human interest of the story.4. What are the major criteria for newsworthiness?ProximityProminenceTimelinessImpactConflict and ControversyUniquenessHuman interest5. What are the principles of news writing?News writing tends to be:1. Impersonal to make it appear objective (to distance thereporter from the story) hence:– Written in the third person– Use of direct speech or indirect speech which is attributed to someone other than the reporter,– Some use of passive verbs but usually only when someone who is being quoted wants to distancethemselves from an issue and to show objectively about n issue.2. About something that has taken place so mostly written in thepast tense.3. Simple – In fact close to the way we talk –relatively shortsentences and words and some use of clichés which the whole audience understand.4. Punchy –it must g rab the reader’s attention so often uses:– short rather than long words– active verbs– relatively short sentences– concrete rather than abstract vocabulary– sometimes emotive and colorful vocabulary– some use (but not overuse) of adjectives5. But also relatively formal hence:– no use of contractions– sentences written in full (no elision) or elliptical sentences6. sometimes imagery is used to help create a clearer mentalpicture for the reader.7. often including the reporter’s by-line and/or a date-line6. Read the following headlines and analyze the features ofthe language they use.a) More Iraqis Said to Flee Since Troop RiseWhen passive voice is used in headlines, “to be” is always omitted. Here “are” in “More Iraqis are said to flee…” is omitted. Nouns and noun phrases are often used in headlines to save space. Noun phrases which actually express actions or state are heavily used, and they are derived from verb phrases in order to make the sentences more compact and save space without lowe ring the amount of information conveyed. Instead of “since the troop rises”, noun phrase “troop rise” is used.b) Insurgent raid kills 22 villagersMost headlines use the present tense-despite the fact that they generally describe past events. The present tense gives the subject a sense of freshness and immediacy, making it more intere sting to read. Instead of using “killed”, “kills” is used to describe what happened in the past. Besides, the article “An” in “an insurgent raid” is omitted.c) Bangladesh Sets Curfew To Curb Student ProtestsShort words (i.e. midget words) are often used to conserve space in headlines, for example, “curb” in this headline. Besides, present tense “sets” is used to describe a past event.d) Storm Death Toll in Midwest Climbs1. Compact noun phrases are often used in headlines to save space.2. Most headlines use the present tense-despite the fact that they generally describe past events.e) Wall Street slightly lower as credit worries lingerRhetoric devices often used in the writing of newspaper headlines.In this headline, Wall Street refers to the stock exchange, which is a metonymy. Another rhetoric device used here is rhyme (Correspondence of terminal sounds of words or of lines of verse), as we find in lower and linger.f) China launches crackdown on inferior goods, unsafe foodIn order to conserve space in headlines, comma is sometimes used to replace “and”.g) China to become U.S. third largest export market by yearendIn phrase headlines, infinitives are sometimes used to indicate a future action or event.7.

Carol Ryff has defined well-being as the presence of six qualities:independence, the ability to cope with complex demands, a feeling of growth as a person, good relationships, goals that give life meaning, and an acceptance of the self and the past.3. Carol Tavris’ mother was treated as a patient. Her doctor andtherapist and husband were quick to ascribe all ills to her “condition”. They all regarded menopause as a dise ase to be cured. Her doctor asked her a lot of questions, then wrote out a prescription for her and left her have the prescription filled.4. Reverent Foster thinks that there is a lot of freedom in midlife.She suggests that middle-aged women should let their pastgo, incorporate it into who they are now and step into the future.Lesson 7Answers to the questions1. C2. B3. C4. D5. Because for many years, politicians spoke little about theirpersonal faith. Both Eisenhower and Kennedy were unwilling to talk about their own religious faith.6. Because Eisenhower and Kennedy were operating in anAmerica where many Protestants, Catholics and Jews regarded each other as threats to the public good. Stirring up such feelings was dangerous.7. Carter carried evangelical Christians, which helped him sweepthe South and run well in rural areas.8. The author believes that there is a close relationship betweenreligion and politics, but candidates should keep religion within appropriate bounds.Additional Reading1. The border wall is planned to be built this fall to stem illegal immigration into America.2. Landowners are concerned it may cut across their property, conservationists see it destroying crucial riverside habitat, and some activists see it inflaming ethnic tensions.3. It is an expression of friendship between two mayors, two cities and two countries.4. The border wall is needed to help block the swelling tideof illegal immigration as well as widespread drug and gun smuggling.5.

D2. D3. C4. D5. When they found their marriage floundering over Ste phen’sinability to keep his promises, they attended a marriage-education course to learn the communication skills.After a while they felt that working on their marriage was all they were doing. To offset that feeling, they instituted a Thursday date night where discussion of anything serious is strictly forbidden.6. He suggests couples set up weekly meetings to discussdifferences when they can be calm and open to new ideas.7. They decided to renew their commitment to their marriageinstead of choosing divorce. The belief in commitment made them come through the crisis. The husband changed his outlook and got a job as a salesman. Today, their marriage is back on solid ground.8. He thinks that as the betrayal causes deep hurt, the wounds toheal will take a long time. He suggests that the one who hasmade the mistake has to work very hard to regain the trust of the other side.Lesson 15Answers to the questions1. B2. C3. A4. B9. According to her, the reason is that medical inflation hasoutstripped the increases in Medicare reimbursement and caused mounting losses.10. Because the Congress intended to reverse the exodus from theMedicare program.11. He thinks that the Congress continues to pour money into thecoffers of Medicare H.M.O.’s in hopes of providin g better care to America’s seniors. But the H.M.O.’s keep stranding hundreds of thousands of beneficiaries annually by either leaving the program or reducing benefits. So he believes that it is foolish even to consider throwing more money at this failed system.12. What Richard Jones means is this: Medical cost inflation hasexceeded 20 percent a year over the last few years and has caused mounting financial losses. They can either stay in markets by reducing benefits or exit and lose the chance to serve Medicare beneficiaries. There is no other choice for them.Additional Reading1. Because of the recession and poor private housing prospects in the early 1990s.2. The traditional American culture thinks of maleness andadulthood in terms of separation, particularly in moving away from home and mother.3. This could lead to rises in family tension and even violence, but it may also improve relationship by giving children the chance to see their parents as independent adults rather than just as parents.4. Parents should allow their children to behave as adults ina family home.5.

Throughout the 1990s, Congress and the states took a muchtougher approach to programs such as unemployment insurance, welfare, Medicaid, and food stamps than they did in earlier decades.10. Many part-time and temporary workers are more likely to bearthe brunt of a job drought because many companies lay them off first.11. Many states will be under pressure to tighten up eligibility ruleseven further because they have allowed their unemploymentinsurance reserve funds to run down in recent years, when the good times seemed to make them less urgent. With unemployment rising again, fewer workers are paying into the system just as more former workers need to take money out. 12. The safety net could still suffer a strain because a growing glut of low-skilled workers means wages at the bottom are likely to sink.Lesson 23Answers to the questions1. B2. C3. A4. C13. School dropout rates are lower, especially forAfrican-Americans. High school students are taking more challenging courses. Girls are closing the gender gap by taking more rigorous math and science classes. SAT scores are up from two decades ago. More and more kids are going to college.14. The way society viewed teens shifted dramatically around thetime of the Great Depression. Before then, teens worked and were considered virtually grown up. But facing a workplace without jobs, Depression youth turned to education as a consolation prize. As high school attendance rolls swelled, the status of teens as full-fledged members of society declined. Now that they were students rather than workers, they came to seem younger than before.15. What’s distinctly different for today’s teenagers, experts say, isthe level of cultural negativity they’re exposed to, from theover-the-top sexuality in advertising, television, and film, to the prevalence of gun violence and family dysfunction. Their exposure to risk is so far beyond what other generations have dealt with.16. Family plays a very important role in helping children overcomethe stresses. Kids who feel connected to home, family, and school are better protected from violence, suicide, sexual activity, and substance abuse. Adolescents also fare better if their parents are home as key times of the day. And teens whose parents had high expectations about school also reported fewer emotional problems, such as suicide attempts or depression.Additional Reading1. The 2005 survey found that about three out of four companies regularly track which websites their employees visit. More than half use surveillance software to scour office e-mail (looking for hot-button keywords like sex in the subject line or body of messages). More than a third extend their snooping to monitor how much time workers spend at the computer, record their keystrokes or log their downloads. And one in four companies reports firing someone for improper e-mail use.2. Heidi Arace and Norma Yetsko distributed via office e-mail what they thought was fun to share, which their bosses found offensive enough. As a result, the two longtime workers were fired.3. Reasons why companies monitor their workers’ computer use include:- to see to it that workers waste less time online and work more efficiently;- to avoid legal trouble;- to guarantee the security;- to avoid the leakage of sensitive information.4. Companies are using two types of spying software: network-based programs that monitor all traffic passing through a system, and programs that sit directly on an employee’s desktop.5. They should know the company’s computer-use policy and comply with it. They should assume they’re being monitored, and behave accordingly. They should never bad-mouth the company online. They should not use personal e-mail accounts or post to a blog. They should avoid transmitting any message that could embarrass themselves or others if made public. They should not think instant messaging is less permanent than e-mail. When surfing the Web, they should never click on something flagged NSFW (not safe for work).作业六：文艺体育、企业经济、社会问题Lesson 28Answers to the questions1. C2. A3. B4. A5. The reasons for Armstrong’s success were his strong interest inthe sport, and his drive and ambition caused by his recovery from near-fatal testicular cancer.6. Y es, beca use he thinks that the Tour de France is cycling’s most difficult and prestigious race.7. He did not feel embarrassed about the testicular cancer but was proud of it. His recovery from the cancer gave him driveand ambition. He approached the sport with a whole new focus.8. He says that he has never failed a drug test, that he takes no banned substances, and that no one who has faced cancer would take illicit drugs.Lesson 31Answers to the questions1. C2. C3. C4. B5. The key issue is the contrast between Enron’s forecasts for its Internet business and the reality of the division’s multiplying problems last year.6. He predicted that broadband would add $40 a share to Enron’s stock price over the next few years.7. According to Skilling the company was caught by surprise by the sudden collapse of the Internet content delivery market that Enron had hoped to turn into a profitable arena for trading.8. Because Enron was not welcomed either by the dominant regional telephone companies or cable companies, each of which had their own strategies for high-speed Internet business.Lesson 34Answers to the questions1. A2. B3. C4. D5. The statistics suggest that gang members are more likely to sell drugs, assaut innocent folk, steal cars and commit murder.6. The data show that roughly half of the gang members hadbeen involved in a drive-by shooting, 80% carried a concealed weapon and 50% reported taking guns to school.7. Successful intervention programs must aim at boys at this stage.8. The author believes that the society can help some of the gang members to turn over a new leaf by offering them decent regular jobs. One if four gang members said that they would quit the business for a regular wage of $6-7 an hour.Additional Reading1. He shot and killed two people about 7:20 a.m. in West Ambler Johnston Hall. Two-and-a-half hours later, he killed 30 people in Norris Hall and then committed suicide.2. They could have warned students earlier that two students had been shot and that the killer had not been caught yet.3. It has identified problems like communications breakdowns, gaps in the mental health system and confusion over student privacy laws.4. He said that his people had acted quickly and to the best of their abilities based on what they knew at the time. He also said the school administration did not have all the facts about the first shooting and did not want to spread partial or incorrect information to students.5. No, they didn't know about his history of mental health problems because Fairfax schools did not relay anything about Cho's mental state to the college due to the privacy laws.。

高中语文阅读材料天马陈应松草原因为辽阔而静止，雪山因为高远而静默。

如果没有马匹和骑手，没有马的长嘶和奔腾，草原一如远古，或者已经死去，草原上将没有英雄和传说。

但是有一万匹马，一万匹从天山奔腾直下的马，摧毁一切的声音，如远雷滚过天际，带着天穹下的烟尘和雾霭，突然撬开我们的眼睛。

这片草原，在疼痛和喜悦、战栗和快感中醒来，开始呼吸。

马在草原上驰骋。

一次次，这就是上天送给草原的馈赠。

是我心中的某一匹马？超越了我的想象。

这不曾是我视觉应该尽享的盛宴。

这个物种，我并不熟悉，它们的气味，它们高大的比例匀称的身架，它们的长脸，它们眼睛里的东西，它们的脊鬃和甩尾，它们奔跑时山崩地裂的暴发感。

它们躲在我们一生的词语背后，在遥远的天山深处，活着，空间巨大。

它们活在书里，活在虚幻而高不可攀的意境里。

说来就来。

像一阵风，一阵狂风，仿佛卷起天空下的血潮，呼啸而来，陡然间将我和草原淹没。

并不是所有人，能走到这里，被这惊心动魄的铁蹄刺醒。

像哑巴，张大着嘴，意外地，成为见证者。

我是如何走到这样壮阔无边、所向披靡的世界，混迹于它们中间？有多厚的耳膜，能够承受它们的嘶鸣？马群怒卷，就像我们心上某种东西的突然炸裂。

我的心，野马奔腾。

如果马的脚下有火焰，草原就是燧石。

为什么不早告诉我，这些马，一直“浩荡”在天山脚下？它们的家乡是没有尽头的大地。

在这片幽静的草原上，在马的鼻息的深谷里，当夜晚来临的时候，连梦境都带着箭镞的呼啸。

马的疆域与天空重叠。

有一千条路，属于这些精骛八极、心游万仞的天马。

是的，它们就是天马，汗血宝马的子孙，有着高贵的英雄血统。

你究竟有多么优美？上帝究竟如何精工雕出了你？天空，灰色的钢，充满了冷漠，充满了对草原长久审美的疲惫。

但是，天马搏动的心脏，就像鹰，在飞翔。

没有倦怠，一如历史上最伟大的心跳，变成文字和诗。

冰河铁马的壮美，“马毛带雪汗气蒸”的悲怆……这些天马依然在这里。

在这远方温暖的山谷，气候湿润，到处盛开着艳丽的千叶蓍、神香草、椒蒿、野紫苏、金莲花、藜芦、老鹳草、风铃草、橙舌飞蓬……草丛里奔忙着啮断草尖和处理粪便的甲虫。

国际金融危机背景下中国企业走出去的战略思路及对策研究

彭玉 200943070222 摘要

面对世界经济危机的冲击，面对世界经济出现复苏的迹象，如何正确认识并采取措施应对经济危机及后危机时代给中国企业“走出去”战略带来的影响，防范风险，捉住机遇，是中国企业“走出去”面对的一个新课题。本文分析了金融危机对中国企业“走出去”的宏观影响，即从机遇和挑战两个方面分析，并提出几点关于我国企业实施“走出去”的对策。

关键词：金融危机 中国企业 走出去 政府 正文

走出去是中国主动应对经济全球化，参与国际竞争，实现经济腾飞，民族复兴的需要，更是解决我国经济结构矛盾的必由之路。近年来，中国经济发展迅速，中国企业的综合实力不断增强，有意愿“走出去”进行国际化经营的中国企业越来越多。据商务部统计，2002年中国对外投资仅为25亿美元，2006年中国非金融类直接对外投资为248.4亿美元，同比增长40.9%，2007年非金融类对外直接投资已 达到187．2亿美元，5年增长6．5倍。2008年非金融类直接对外投资406.5亿美元，对外非金融类直接投资同比增长63.6%， 2008年中国境内投资者工队全球112个国家和地区地1500多家境内外企业进行了直接投资，2009年前后的一两个月的时间内，中国的海外并购已有22起，涉及金额超过200亿美元，这一金额较同期上涨2%，为历史同期最高水平，这说明自2008年9月金融危机全面爆发以来，世界经济不景气，但是中国企业海外并购的热潮并未退去，国际金融危机使中国企业走出去的步伐丝毫没有减退，而是更快了，2010年中国企业进行投资的地区和国家已经达到１７７个，在境外设立了１．３万家企业，目前年度投资规模已经接近６００亿美元。这说明在全球金融危机的背景下，中国企业能捉住机遇，更好的实施“走出去”战略，不断增强企业自身的实力和国家的综合国力，但是如何在经济全球化和竞争日益激烈化的世界中拥有自己的话语权，这是一个值得深思的问题，下面我就从几个点来分析中国企业“走出去”的原因和策略：
