5、 Gothic and Modern influences, is a great example of competing architectural styles within one building.

Injured but mostly shocked by the crash and by the airbags that popped up, she got stuck in the vehicle.A

11、s it happened, Pete DiPinto was getting ready for bed when he heard the crash coming from not far outside his bedroom window. DiPinto, a volunteer firefighter, 64, never stopped to think. He grabbed a flashlight and rushed out.The first car he came upon, 2, 000 feet from his front yard, was the one

12、that had hit Esposito. Once making sure the driver was OK, he looked around and spotted Espositos car straddling (跨坐) the railroad tracks. And then he heard a bell sound, which signalled a coming train.DiPinto rushed to Espositos car and hit on the drivers side window. She just looked at him. I dont

13、 know where I am, she said.Youre on the railroad tracks, DiPinto yelled. We have to get you off right now! The train was traveling at a speed of 65 miles per hour toward them. The drivers door couldnt be opened due to the crash, so DiPinto ran to the passenger side. He threw open the door, pushed as

14、ide the airbags, seized Espositos arms, and pulled her toward him across the passenger seat until he finally got her out and walked her to safety as quickly as he could.Within seconds, the train crashed into the car.

18、llowing accident.CScientists are working to stop a deadly virus that infects pigs. This African swine flu (猪流感) virus is causing huge losses for farmers in China and other Asian countries. Many farmers have tried to contain it by destroying infected animals. But the spread of the disease into East A

19、sia has stepped up the search for other ways to deal with the problem.The virus had not been considered a major concern for researchers until it appeared in China last year. Chinese farmers raise about half of the worlds pigs. Some researchers think the virus might have come from infected animals in

20、 Eastern Europe or Russia. Since then it has spread to China, Vietnam and other Asian countries. Millions of pigs have been destroyed.Although swine flu does not sicken people, it is very infectious and deadly to pigs. As the deadly virus kills pigs across Asia, scientists are speeding up efforts to

21、 develop a vaccine (疫苗). Todays situation, where you have this global danger, puts a lot more emphasis on it, said Doctor Luis Rodriguez, who leads the United States government laboratory for foreign animal diseases.Vaccines are often developed by killing a virus before it is put into an animal. The

22、 disabled virus does not make the animal sick, but it activates the bodys natural defenses against disease. The immune system is then able to identify the virus and produce antibodies against it. However, this method is not effective with all viruses including the one that causes African swine flu.

23、For swine flu, scientists have been working on a different kind of vaccine. It is made from a weakened virus, not a dead one. The problem for researchers has been how to change the virus so it can be safely used.Vietnams government reported a few weeks ago that it was testing vaccines, but provided

24、few details. In China, the government says scientists are working on a vaccine that genetically changes the virus, which is similar to a method being used by scientists in the US.28.

26、for African swine flue?A. They are developed from a dead virus.B. Regular developing methods apply to them.C. China and the U.S. have different methods of developing them.D. The genetic change of the virus may be a breakthrough for the vaccines.31. Which of the following can be the best title for th

27、e text?A. Government Places Much Stress on Virus ResearchB. Swine Flu Leads to the Deaths of Lots of PigsC. Scientists Hurry to Develop Vaccine for Swine FluD. Research on Animal Diseases Makes Great ProgressDA bird called hermit warbler breeds (繁殖) along the U. S. West Coast. They all kind of look

28、the same and they have a cute little yellow head and a gray body. Typically, birds sing the same one song within one region because the song attracts mates. And different regions can have slightly different dialects of the song. But recently biologists noticed that there are some places that are exc

29、eptions to this rule-in some places, there is more than one song in the same place.So we were curious why that would be the case. Brett Furnas, a bio-statistician at the California Department of Fish and Wildlife said.To investigate, Furnas and his team recorded lots of hermit warblers songs. In 10

30、years, they went to 100 different locations throughout the state and all the different potential habitats of the species. The researchers analyzed all the hermit warbler songs they collected and discovered that the hermit warbler doesnt just break the usual one-song-per-region rule-they positively d

31、emolish it, for the researchers found, actually, an amazing 35 different dialects across the state.But why would the bird repeatedly alter its song when any changes could affect its ability to attract a mate? Basically, hermit warblers are very sensitive to fire in the short term, so they will aband

32、on an area temporarily, even if its just a low-severity fire that doesnt destroy the whole stand. And then other hermit warblers singing different dialects move into this area. And then they end up, maybe a few years later, with two or more different dialects in the same place.Furnas says that such musical diversity might actually work in the hermit warblers favor. They may have greater resiliency (恢复力) to things like climate change. So understanding that helps us to ma
