What kind of human being will the future spaceman be?
Will he need bones of steel and powerful muscles to resist rocket thrust,the lungs of a glass blower,a mighty heart,the calmness of an acrobat,unconscious death urges,or a schizophrenic(患精神分裂症的)drove toward isolation? Popular ideas of a spaceman tend to be funny composites of fiction and fact.
A more realistic portrait emerges from the young science of bioastronautics,the newest and strangest of medical disciplines.The astronaut may be described as a young man of high intelligence who is normal to an abnormal degree.On earth he may well have been a high diver,high jumper,pole vaulter,or acrobat.He must be highly motivated,carefully trained,and he must want to come back.
His heart and lungs must be healthy but need not be exceptionally developed,for his cabin will be pressurized.Huge muscles may actually be disadvantageous,for he will have almost no way to get exercise,and he will find that the strength of a year old child is adequate in the weightlessness of space.A firm body and a short, strong neck will help him to withstand(抗拒;经得起……)the tremendous forces encountered at take off.Most important physically,his digestive system must be one that will not be upset by weightlessness;he must not be subject to motion sickness.
() 41.All the following are popular beliefs about the future spaceman EXCEPT that .
A.faced with isolation,he is brave enough and not liable to go mad

Scientists have long believed one way to stop the Earth’s atmosphere from warming is by planting more trees. The idea is that more trees will take in or absorb some of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is a gas released by cars, factories and other human activities. The gas traps heat in the Earth’s atmosphere, which warms the planet. However, two new studies have found that trees may not be as helpful in reducing carbon dioxide as had been thought.
The first study was done at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. Researchers pumped extra carbon dioxide into a test area where pine trees were growing. The trees grew thirty-four percent faster during the first three years. However, in time, the trees slowed to about their normal growth rate. The scientists say this is because trees need other nutrients, such as nitrogen.
In the second study, researchers from Duke and Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine examined the soil around trees. They discovered that as the leaves broke down into the soil, all the carbon was not trapped in the soil. Much of it was released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
The findings of the two studies were published last month in Nature magazine. They suggest there is limited value in planting trees to reduce the carbon dioxide pollution in the atmosphere.
Forest planting has been a part of negotiations on a world agreement to reduce greenhouse gases that scientists believe cause global warming. The United States, Canada, Japan and some other industrial countries have supported the idea. But this new research suggests the idea is not as effective as environmental activists had thought. Scientist Ram Oren of Duke University led the study on tree growth. He says that earlier estimates on the ability of forests to absorb carbon dioxide were overly hopeful.
Some scientists not involved in the studies say the research provides some of the first evidence on how trees react to carbon dioxide. Other scientists say the research disputes a belief among some coal and power companies. The companies say that rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will not create harmful global warming. Instead, they say it will increase forests and other plants.
What is the purpose of this passage?
A.Introduce some new ideas about the relationship between trees and carbon dioxide.
B.Introduce recent condition of global industrial pollution.
C.Call on people to plant more trees to reduce greenhouse gases.
D.Point out that power companies should be responsible for the rising levels of carbon dioxide.

Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form. of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form. of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot. Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally.. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, ,Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people. While verbalization is the most common form. of language, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.
