26、Teamwork is important in any workplace, and effective teamwork is the key to productivity. What improves teamwork and makes a team successful? Read the tips below to find out.
Appoint a strong leader
A team has no direction without a leader.【1】. This leader must also prioritize team goals over individual goals, ensuring they are committed to getting the job done.
Clarify all responsibilities
From the moment the team is formed, particular attention must be paid to assigning direct responsibilities to each member.【2】. This is an important step to make before going deeper into the project so that everyone is on the same page. If everyone is clear on what they are responsible for producing, it helps prevent people doing the same thing and less desirable tasks being avoided.
【3】
Each team will comprise a range of people from diverse backgrounds. It is important to set common goals the team is working towards so that the focus always remains on the finished product. Each team member must understand that personal goals must be set aside and team goals must remain the focus.【4】.
Encourage open communication
Encouraging team members to be forthcoming about their ideas is important for the success of the team.【5】. It is also important to establish two-way communication of information between both different team members, as well as between team members and their manager.
A．Set common goals
B．Be willing to help others
C．As the well-known saying goes, “There is no I in team”
D．If these are set from the beginning, there will be no issues of authority
E．It is vital that this person is capable and efficient at giving out tasks
F．When team members feel that they can contribute ideas, there is more creativity and innovation
G．This may mean contributing to tasks that are perhaps below your level, but the overall goal must be kept in mind
27、A new study suggests lightning strikes that hit Earth after its formation may have unlocked a necessary chemical element to support the beginning of life. Researchers say the lightning may have supplied enough phosphorus (磷) to Earth during the first billion years after the planet was formed. Scientists believe life started on Earth about 3.5 to 4.5 billion years ago.
Phosphorus is an important element for the formation of life. It helps form cell structures and supports DNA, the material present in nearly all living organisms. But on early Earth, phosphorus is believed to have been first locked inside minerals that cannot dissolve in water.
Until now, it was widely believed that meteorites (陨石) that struck Earth were mainly responsible for the presence of “bioavailable” phosphorus. Some meteorites contain a phosphorus mineral called “schreibersite”, a highly reactive mineral that can form organic molecules.
But when lightning strikes the ground, it can create glassy rocks called “fulgurites” by super-heating and sometimes vaporizing rocks on the surface. This process frees the phosphorus locked inside. As a result, these “fulgurites” can contain “schreibersite”, which can be dissolved in water, where life is thought to have formed.
The researchers say levels of phosphorus minerals caused by lightning strikes were found to have been higher about 3.5 billion years ago. The researchers think this was about the age of the earliest-known fossils widely accepted to be those of microorganisms. Scientists believe the earliest bacteria-like organisms were formed in Earth’s early waters. But there is a debate over when this happened and whether it happened in warm and shallow waters or in deeper waters.
New research does not completely cancel the theory that meteorites could have been another source of life-giving phosphorus. Meteor (流星) strikes around the time of the appearance of life are far less than thought a decade ago.
【1】Where did the phosphorus first exist on early Earth?
A．In meteors.
B．In lightening.
C．In minerals.
D．In water.
【2】What happens just when lightning strikes the ground?
A．Life is born.
B．Phosphorus is released.
C．Rocks become soil.
D．Meteorites are broken.
【3】Which of the following do scientists disagree about according to paragraph 5?
A．The number of lightning strikes.
B．The age of the earliest-known fossils.
C．The time of the disappearance of life on Earth
D．The depth of the earliest lifeforms on Earth in water.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A．Life Might Have Begun from Three Sources
B．Life Needs an Important Substance to Get Started
C．Lightning May Have Helped Life Develop on Earth
D．Scientists Have Discovered the Earliest Meteor Strike
28、Drones (无人机) equipped with hyperspectral and thermal sensors will be applied in Italy to spot trees infected with Xylella fastidiosa, a deadly bacterium that has been destroying the country’s olive crops for almost a decade.
The sensors will be able to detect signs of early infection that cannot be noticed easily, such as slight changes in the color of leaves, allowing farmers to select affected trees and prevent outbreaks. More than 300,000 trees will be examined using the new drone technology in the next few months.
“This technology has the potential to give the Italian government a major advantage in the fight against Xylella,” says Manuela, a researcher of the project. “We tend to realize far too late if a plant is infected - these drone sensors will allow us to spot and prevent outbreaks rather than just react to them.”
Early detection strategies like this are key for controlling Xylella, which is spread by spittlebugs that feed on infected plants, taking in bacteria and passing them to healthy plants nearby. Once the bacteria have infected a plant, they block the xylem vessels that transport water through the plant, cutting off its ability to absorb water and, eventually, killing it.
“Xylella is particularly dangerous because it has many different natural hosts through which it can spread.” says Andrea Maiorano, a plant health expert at the European Food Safety Authority in can spread,” says Andrea Maiorano, a plant health expert at the European Food Safety Authority in Italy. “There are hundreds of different plant species that can host it.”
According to the law, as soon as a tree is found to be infected with Xylella, it must immediately be cut down - along with all species easily affected within a 50-metre radius (半径). A 2.5-kilometre zone around the infected plant is then closely monitored to prevent spread to surrounding trees. The remote-detection drones will ensure that any infected tree in these areas is diagnosed and recognized quicker than ever before.
The hope is that this containment strategy in infected regions can buy time for the rest of the country’s olive plantations until a cure can be found.
【1】What is the problem with the olive crops in Italy?
A．Bacteria infection.
B．Lack of water.
C．Soil pollution.
D．Backward technology.
【2】How do drones help the farmers?
A．By curing the affected trees.
B．By changing the color of leaves.
C．By monitoring the quality of trees.
D．By discovering the unnoticed infection.
【3】What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．The danger of Xylella.
B．The key of the strategies.
C．The cause of the bacteria.
D．The feature of the drones.
【4】What can we expect of the drones in the future?
A．They will prevent trees from being infected.
B．They will ensure the recognition of the plants.
C．They can speed up the diagnosis of diseased trees.
D．They might help increase country’s olive plantations.

30、Since the start of the Space Age, privatesector(私营部门)leaders have been issuing warnings that a centralized model would damage progress on public and, especially, commercial priorities in space. For example, Ralph Cordiner, the onetime CEO of General Electric, foresaw much of the space development while forcefully arguing that, eventually, space’s “development shall be under our traditional competitive _________ system.”
The economic logic for the centralized model was clear, and for several decades it has _________ its goals. Public goods such as national security, national pride, and basic science are typically _________ if left to the market, and NASA(美国宇航局)was founded to provide them during the Cold War. Its commandandcontrol structure grew naturally from that _________.
Under this model, the United States has been the leading space power and NASA has occupied the technological frontier. The success of the Apollo missions, including the 1969 moon landing, inspired grand _________ of what would come next. In the early 1970s, studies of space colonization and diversified spacebased economies _________.
But after the last of the Apollo missions in 1972, NASA—and thus the US space sector—struggled to find a second _________ in its space script. Part of the reason was that the tight connection between the Apollo program and competition with the Soviet Union made NASA’s budget vulnerable(脆弱的)to the sense that the mission had already been accomplished. Apollo astronaut Buzz Aldrin said, “After the Apollo lunar missions, America lost its love of space—there was no concentrated _________ and we didn’t have any clear objectives”.
When NASA decided that its next emphasis would be on the Space Transportation System, better known as the Shuttle, it applied largely the same _________ approach it had used in the 1960s. The first flight of the Columbia space shuttle was in 1981. Successive shuttle flights enabled two decades of achievements, including the construction of the International Space Station (ISS) and Hubble Space Telescope, which __________ American technological competence.
After two tragic accidents, with the Challenger shuttle in 1986 and the Columbia shuttle in 2003, momentum(势头)turned away from the Shuttle and the centralized model of space it __________. The shuttle program was cancelled in 2011, leaving the United States in the __________ position of not being able to launch humans from domestic soil.
An instructive contrast is provided by the __________ the US government took to the development of the commercial satellite market. In 1962, Congress created COMSAT, a forprofit, private corporation owned by common shareholders and a group of telecommunications companies. NASA was officially charged with providing __________ advice to COMSAT, and the agency was given responsibility for COMSAT’s launches. The idea behind this publicprivate __________ was to employ the expertise of NASA to jumpstart a private communications satellite industry. It led to the rapid deployment and use—for both public and private purposes—of the vast range of satellites that dominate the space economy today.
