McCormick, 57, was convicted (判罪) of cheats last month and sentenced  Thursday at the Old Bailey court in London.“Your cheating conduct in selling a great amount of useless equipment simply for huge profit promoted a false sense of security and in all probability materially contributed to causing death and injury to innocent people,” Judge Richard Hone tole McCormick. “You have neither regret, nor shame, nor any sense of guilt.”The detectors, sold for up to $ 42, 000 each, were said to be able to find such dangerous objects as bombs under water and from the air. But in fact they “lacked any grounding in science” and were of no use.McCormick had told the court that he sold his detectors to the police in Kenya, the prison service in Hong Kong, the army in Egypt and the border control in Thailand.“I never had any bad results from customers,” he said.  Why was McCormick sentenced to prison?A．He cheated in business.B． B He caused death of peopleC .He made detectors. D．He sold bombs. 25.

Which of the following is true of the detectors?A．They have not been sold to Africa.B. They have caused many serious problems.C. They can find dangerous objects in water.D. They don’t function on the basis of science.27. It can be inferred from the passage that McCormick ______ .A．sold the equipment at a low priceB . had not got such huge profit as mentioned in the textC．did not think he had committed the crime D．was well-known in most countries CParents are a child’s first teachers. But some parents never learned from good examples. In New York City, a nonprofit agency called Covenant House tries to help homeless young mothers become good parents.The twelve or so teenagers who live at the shelter attend parenting classes four days a week. The class is called Mommy and Me. Teacher Delores Clemens is a mother of five and a grandmother. She teaches basic skills, like how to give a baby a bath and how to dress a baby depending on the season.She remembers one student who learned from her mother not to pick up a crying baby. The mother said that would only make the child needy and overly demanding. Delores Clemens says, “that's not true. You have to hold your baby! He is crying for a reason. If you never pick him up, he's going to keep crying. Pick your baby up. Cuddle your baby. Hug him! And she started to do that. They just want a little cuddling and a little love. And it works!”Delores Clemens says her students also learn how to be good mothers by letting themselves be mothered. Around three hundred fifty teenage mothers graduate from  Covenant House's Mommy and Me class every year.In class, with her baby son is Natasha. She lived on the streets. She is glad not only for the warmth and shelter of Covenant House. As she told reporter Adam Phillips, she is also glad for the help they offer in seeking a more secure life.The World Health Organization says the United States has forty-one births for every one thousand girls age fifteen to nineteen.

Britain DTiny tubes and filaments( 丝状物 )in some Canadian rock appear to be the oldest known fossils, giving new support for some ideas about how life began, a new study says.The features(特征)are mineralised remains of what appear to be bacteria that lived some 3. 77 billion to 4. 28 billion years ago. the scientist said. That would be older than some other rock features found in Greenland, which were considered to be the fossils last August.The new results come from examining rock found along the eastern shore of Hudson Bay in Northern Quebec. The filaments and tubes, made up be， made up of iron oxide called hematite（赤铁矿）， appeared within a rock type called jasper（碧玉）.Matthew Dodd of University College London, an author of the study published Wednesday by nature, said the living things lived in the seafloor where water was heated by a volcano. Since the fossils are nearly as old as Earth, which formed some 4. 5 billion years ago, the finding supports previous indications that life may have begun in such an environment, he said.He and his colleagues presented several lines of evidence to support the idea that tiny tubes and filaments are signatures of past life. But two experts who've previously reported similar findings said they are not convinced.“I would say they are not fossils, "Martin J. Van Kranendonk of the University of New South Wales in Australia, who reported the Greenland findings last year, wrote in an email. The paper's evidence for a biological origin falls short, he said.Abigail Allwood, a NASA geologist, said the authors have produced one of the most detailed cases yet made "for evidence of life in rocks older than 3. 5 billion years. But "It's an extraordinary claim to make and you do need extraordinary evidence, " she said32. What do Matthew, Martin and Abigail have in common?A. They have been studying rock featuresB.

Indifferent   D. Neutral35.
