But soon, such a tool could be hanging from the belts of police, arson (縱火) investigators and foodsafety inspectors.　　The technology that they are working on would suggest quite reasonably that, within three to five years, we39。ll have some workable sensors ready to use. Such devices might find wide use in places that attract terrorists. Police could detect drugs, bodies and bombs hidden in cars, while food inspectors could easily test food and water for contamination.　　The implications for revolutionary advances in public safety and the food industry are astonishing. But so, too, are the possibilities for abuse: Such machines could determine whether a woman is ovulating (排卵), without a physical exam or even her knowledge.　　One of the traditional protectors of American liberty is that it has been impossible to search everyone. That’s getting not to be the case.　　Artificial biosensors created at Auburn work totally differently from anything ever seen before. AromaScan, for example, is a desktop machine based on a bank of chips sensitive to specific chemicals that evaporate into the air. As air is sucked into the machine, chemicals pass over the sensor surfaces and produce changes in the electrical current flowing through them. Those current changes are logged into a puter that sorts out odors based on their electrical signatures.　　Myers says they expect to load a single fingernailsize chip with thousands of odor receptors (感受器), enough to create a sensor that39。s nearly as sensitive as a dog39。s nose.21. Which of the following is within the capacity of the artificial nose being developed? 　　A. Performing physical examinations. 　 B. Locating places which attract terrorists. 　 C. Detecting drugs and water contamination. 　 D. Monitoring food processing. 22. A potential problem which might be caused by the use of an artificial nose is . A. negligence of public safety B. an abuse of personal freedomC. a hazard to physical health D. a threat to individual privacy23. The word logged (Line 5, Para. 7) most probably means . 　 A. preset B. entered C. processed D. simulated 24. To produce artificial noses for practical use, it is essential . 　 A. to develop microchips with thousands of odor receptors B. to invent chips sensitive to various chemicals　 C. to design a puter program to sort out smells D. to find chemicals that can alter the electrical current passing through 25. The author’s attitude towards Larry Myers39。 work is . A. cautious B. approving C. suspicious D. overenthusiastic II. Translation: 20% (See the answer sheet)1. If we are not careful in the Year of the Woman, we shall end up with millions of defensive neurotic females trying to live up to all the propaganda that puts so much pressure on them to take on more than they can cope with and more than they ever want to do. 如果我們在女性年里不小心的話，我們就會有數以百萬計的時時都設防的焦慮女性，試圖和宣傳的一樣，給自己加壓，承擔了他們難以處理的事情和他們從不想承擔的事情。2. It was a bright, cold day, the ground covered with a sleet that had39。 frozen so that it seemed as if all the bare trees, the bushes, the cut brush and all the grass and the bare ground had been varnished with ice, I took the young Irish setter for a walk up the road and along a frozen creek, but it was difficult to stand or walk on the glassy surface and the red dog slipped and slithered and I fell twice, hard, once dropping my gun and having it slide away over the ice.那是明亮而寒冷的一天，大地覆蓋了一層冰，以致于所有的光禿禿的樹，灌木叢，被砍過的粗雜材和所有的草以及光禿禿的大地都消失在冰層中。我牽著愛爾蘭長毛獵犬在柏油路上和冰凍的小溪邊散步，但是在滑溜溜的表層站立或者散步是非常困難的，紅色的小狗滑倒了，搖晃不穩的前行，我也狠狠地摔了兩跤，曾經把我的槍都摔掉了，槍順著冰滑了好遠。3. I am painfully aware that academic leaders have themselves too often resorted to strictly economic appeals for support because these seemed easier
