23、r, 220,000 per day and 80 million per year.This is not only due to higher birth rate, but to lower death rate as well. The number of births has not declined at the same rate as the number of deaths.Some countries such as Columbia, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica and the Philippines are doubling their

24、population about every twenty-one years with a growth rate of 3.3 percent a year or more.

31、for communicating with other people especially information about people. They are mainly social tools. Visual and spatial abilities are good for imagining and manipulating objects and for communicating information about them. Are these talents programmed into the brain? In some of the newest and mos

32、t controversial research in neurophysiology( 神經(jīng)生理學(xué) ),it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain males are specialists while women are generalists.But one knows that, if anything this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering is both Visual and spatial and it 'true

33、that there are relatively few women engineers. But women become just as skilled as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car task that involve visual-spatial skills. They also do equally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall i

This map shows the chances of an earthqua

39、ke in each part of the country. (83) The areas of the map where earthquakes are most likely to occur are called earthquake belt”. The government is, spending a great deal money and is working hard to help discover the answer to these two questions: l. Can we predict earthquake? 2. Can we control ear

40、thquakes?To answer the first question, scientists are looking very closely at the most active fault( 斷層)systems in the country such as the San Andreas fault in California, a fault is break between two sections of the earth' surface.

41、curs. Scientists look at the faults for changes that might show that an earthquake was about to occurs. But it will probably be many years before we can predict earthquakes accurately. And the control of earthquakes is even farther away.Nevertheless, there have been some interesting developments in

42、the field of controlling earthquakes. The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes. Here water was put into a layer of rocks 4000 meters below surface of the ground. Shortly after this injection of water, there were a small number of earthquakes. Scientists have d

43、ecided that the water which was injected into rocks works like oil on each other. When the water “ oiled "the fault, the fault became slippery and the energy of an earthquake was released. Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes. They have realized that there is a co

44、nnection between injection of the water and the earthquake activity. They have suggested that might be possible to use this knowledge to prevent very big destructive earthquakes, that is, scientists could inject some kind of fluid like water into faults and change one big earthquake into a number of

The risks and uncertainties of the hunt were no longer essential for survival.（85）The skills and thirst for hunting remained, however, and demanded new outlets. Hu

54、nting for sport replaced hunting for necessity. This new activity involved all the original hunting sequences（ 后果）,but the aim of the operation was no longer to avoid starvation. Instead the sportsmen set off to test their skill against prey that was no longer essential to their survival. To be sure
