在出土文物中，把专供死者用的陪葬品叫做冥器。在出土的北宋瓷器中，有许多瓷枕头。我们都有使用枕头的经验，瓷枕头非常硬，活人不好枕，所以北宋的瓷枕一定是专门给死者枕的冥器；再说，瓷枕埋葬在坟墓里不会腐烂。
如果以下陈述为真，哪项最严重地削弱了上述论证
A．在陪葬品中，既有专供死者的冥器，也有死者生前喜爱用的器具。
B．司马光在写《资治通鉴》期间，使用由圆木做成的硬枕。
C．金代的瓷枕造型多为虎形，虎画得非常勇猛威风，大将军耶律羽之在大战前睡觉时曾经用过这种枕头。
D．冥器上从来不写教导性文字，有些出土的北宋瓷枕却刻有“未晚先投宿”、“无事早归”等教导性话语。

It is just one example of the growing concern over the increasing power consumption and environmental impact of computers.
A、study found that the power consumption of data centers doubled between 2000 and 2005, and now accounts for 1.2% ofAmerican electricity consumption, though other estimates put the figure at 4%.Companies now spend as much as 10% of their technology budgets on energy, says Rakesh Kumar of Gartner, a consultancy.
Power consumption has increased because of the rise of the internet, of course, but also because of way in which computers have historically been designed: to maximize performance at all costs.Between 1996 and 2006, the number of servers in use went from 6 million to 28 million and the average power consumption of each server grew from 150 watts to 400 watts.But things are now starting to change and the computer industry has been seized with enthusiasm for "green computing".MillionsofAmericansandforeignersseeG.I.J

过去。大多数航空公司都尽量减轻飞机的重量，从而达到节省燃油的目的。那时最安全的飞机座椅是非常重的，因此只安装很少的这类座椅。今年，最安全的座椅卖得最好。这非常明显地证明，现在的航空公司在安全和省油这两方面更倾向重视安全了。
以下哪项，如果为真，能够最有力地削弱上述结论
A．去年销售量最大的飞机座椅并不是最安全的座椅。
B．所有航空公司总是宣称它们比其他公司更加重视安全。
C．与安全座椅销售不好的那些年比，今年的油价有所提高。

E．由于技术创新，今年最安全的座椅反而比一般座椅的重量轻。Oneofthequestionsthatiscomingintofocusas
One of the questions that is coming into focus as we face growing scarcity of resources of many kinds in the world is how to divide limited resources among countries. In the international development community, the conventional wisdom has been that the 2 billion people living in poor countries could never expect to reach the standard of living that most of us in NorthAmerica enjoy, simply because the world does not contain enough iron ore, protein, petroleum, and so on.At the same time, we in the United States have continued to pursue super affluence as though there were no limits on how much we could consume. We make up 6 percent of the world’s people; yet we consume one-third of the world’s resources.
As long as the resources we consumed each year came primarily from within our own boundaries, this was largely an internal matter.But as our resources come more and more from the outside world, "outsiders" are going to have some say over the rate at which and terms under which we consume. We will no longer be able to think in terms of "our" resources and "their" resources, but only of common resources.
AsAmericans consuming such a disproportionate share of the world’s resources, we have to question whether or not we can continue our pursuit of super affluence in a world of scarcity. We are now reaching the point where we must carefully examine’ the presumed link between our level of well-being and the level of material goods consumeD、If you have only one crust of bread and get another crust of bread, your well-being is greatly enhanceD、But if you have a loaf of bread, then an additional crust of bread doesn’t make that much difference. In the eyes of most of the world today,Americans have their loaf of bread and are asking for still more. People elsewhere are beginning to ask why. This is the question we’re going to have to answer, whether we’re trying to persuade countries to step up their exports of oil to us or trying to convince them that we ought to be permitted to maintain our share of the world fish catch.
The prospect of a scarcity of, and competition for, the world’s resources requires that we reexamine the way in which we relate to the rest of the worlD、It means we find ways of cutting back on resource consumption that is dependent on the resources and cooperation of other countries. We cannot expect people in these countries to concern themselves with our worsening energy and food shortages unless we demonstrate some concern for the hunger, illiteracy and disease that are diminishing life for them.
The writer warnsAmericans that ______.
A、their excessive consumption has caused world resource exhaustion
B、they are confronted with the problem of how to obtain more material goods
C、their unfair share of the world’s resources should give way to proper division among countries
D、they have to discard their cars for lack of fossil fuel in the worldLargelectureclassesarefrequentlyregarded
Large lecture classes are frequently regarded as a necessary evil. Such classes (21) be offered in many colleges and universities to meet high student (22) with limited faculty resource, (23) teaching a large lecture class can be a (24) task. Lecture halls are (25) large, barren, and forbidding. It is difficult to get to know students. Students may seem bored in the (26) environment and may (27) read newspapers or even leave class in the middle of a lecture. Written work by the students seems out of the (28) .
Although the challenges of teaching a large lecture class are (29) , they are not insurmountable. The solution is to develop (30) methods of classroom instruction that can reduce, if not (31) , many of the difficulties (32) in the mass class. In fact, we have (33) at Kent State University teaching techniques which help make a large lecture class more like a small (34) .
An (35) but important benefit of teaching the course (36) this manner has involved the activities of the teaching assistants who help us mark students’ written work. The faculty instructor originally decided to ask the teaching assistants for help (37) this was the only practical way to (38) that all the papers could be evaluateD、Now those (39) report enjoying their new status as "junior professors", gaining a very different (40) on college education by being on the other side of the desk, learning a great deal about the subject matter, and improving their own writing as a direct result of grading other students’ papers.

Which of the following is NOT true according to the authorA．Tipping is a common practice in the restaurant world
But Mr. Keller is right to move away from tipping—and it’s worth exploring why just about everyone else in the restaurant world is wrong to stick with the practice.
Customers believe in tipping because they think it makes economic sense. "Waiters know that they won’t get paid if they don’t do a good job" is how most advocates of the system would put it. To be sure, this is a tempting, apparently rational statement about economic theory, but it appears to have little applicability to the real world of restaurants.
Michael Lynn, an associate professor of consumer behavior and marketing atCornell’s School of HotelAdministration, has conducted dozens of studies of tipping and has concluded that consumers’ assessments of the quality of service correlate weakly to the amount they tip.
Rather, customers are likely to tip more in response to servers touching them lightly and leaning forward next to the table to make conversation than to how often their water glass is refilled—in other words, customers tip more when they like the server, not when the service is gooD、Mr. Lynn’s studies also indicate that male customers increase their tips for female servers while female customers increase their tips for male servers.
What’s more, consumers seem to forget that the tip increases as the bill increases. Thus, the tipping system is an open invitation to what restaurant professionals call "upselling": every bottle of imported water, every espresso and every cocktail is extra money in the server’s pocket.Aggressive upselling for tips is often rewarded while low-key, quality service often goes unrecognizeD、
In addition, the practice of tip pooling, which is the norm in fine-dining restaurants and is becoming more common in every kind of restaurant above the level of a greasy spoon, has ruined whatever effect voting with your tip might have had on an individual waiter. In an unreasonable outcome, you are punishing the good waiters in the restaurant by not tipping the bad one. Indeed, there appears to be little connection between tipping and good service.
B、Waiters don’t care about tippin
