Race walkers are conditioned athletes.The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometre race walk,which is about five miles longer than the marathon.But the sport's rules require that a race walker's knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact()with the ground at all times.It's this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity,however,says Jaclyn Norberg,an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem,Mass. Like running,race walking is physically demanding,she says.According to most calculations,race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories()per hour,which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking,although fewer than running,which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. However,race walking does not pound the body as much as running does,Dr.Norberg says.According to her research,runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step,while race walkers,who do not leave the ground,create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. 7

D.Confused. 答案D 解桐词义猜测题。根据画线短语后的一句话可知,这三位外国人对英国的风俗并不知情,由此可知,当 他们面对英国人当时的反应时会感到迷惑。 31.In India,it is considered impolite to A.use the right hand for passing food at table B.pass food with the left hand C.shake your head D.nod your head 答案B 解标细节理解题。由第二段的“A visitor to India would do well..eft hand for passing food at table.”可 知,在印度用左手递食物被认为是不礼貌的。 D In a world where nearly 6 million fingerprint records of government employees are stolen in one computer hack(非法入侵),and here millions of people are victims of identity theft every year,the next step in cybersecurity may well be mapping your brain. Researchers at Binghamton University,State University of New York are working on a biometric( 物特征识别的)system that records how your brain reacts to certain images.With a little more polishing,the scientists'brainchild could become the way you get into a safe deposit box,your office or past scanners at the airport.It could replace the password for your online banking,your email or your social media accounts. They started their project by measuring the brain waves of 30 subjects.The subjects were fitted with a cap that had 30 electrodes()attached to it,and then shown various images and symbols-celebrity faces,words,pictures of food-on a computer screen in 200-millisecond bursts.The brain's reaction was recorded. The idea is that every time a person needs to use a"password",he or she goes through the same procedure,and the results are matched with their first-time reaction.If the"brainprint"is compromised- like what happened with the fingerprint records-then the system is merely reset by running another set of images and collecting a different set of brain waves."Even if that was stolen,you could just cancel it and record one to something else,"says professor Laszlo. Laszlo and her team have shown that their system can be 100 percent accurate.So one of the more difficult parts of making the system practical already has been overcome.Now,they're spending much time recording accurate brainprints with as few as three electrodes,which could make recording in the future as easy as wearing a pair of special glasses.They're also working with cheaper materials and different methods to see if they can bring the cost down. 32.What does the underlined word "brainchild"in paragraph 2 refer to? A.The brain function. 10
