Well-designed tools and equipment will require less force to operate them and prevent awkward (别扭的) hand positions. They will allow the worker to keep the elbows (肘) next to the body to prevent damage to the shoulder and arm. Overuse injuries can therefore be prevented or reduced if the employer provides, and workers use: power tools rather than having to use muscle power tools with specially designed handles that allow the wrist (手腕) to keep straight (see the figures ). This means that hands and wrists are kept in the same position as they would be if they were hanging relaxed at a persons side tools with handles that can be held comfortably by the whole hand. This means having a selection of sizes-remember that tools that provide a comfortable firm hold for a person with a very large hand may be awkward for someone with a very small hand. This is a particularly important consideration for women who may use tools originally designed for men tools that do not press fingers (or flesh )between the handles, and whose handles do not have sharp edges or a small surface area. 56. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Good Tool Design for Women B. Importance of Good Tool DesignC. Tool Design and Prevention of Injuries D. Overuse of Tools and Worker Protection 57. Which of the following describes a well-designed tool?A. Its kept close to the body. B. It fully uses muscle power. C. It makes users feel relaxed. D. Its operated with less force .58. What are the two figures used to show?A. The effective use of the tool. B. The way of operating the tool.C. The proper design of the handle. D. The purpose of bending the wrist. 59. In choosing tools for women, _ of the handle is the most important. A. the size B. the edge C. the shape D. the position BEveryones at it, even my neighbors. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadnt done an eBay deal. So, I decided to try my hand at online auction (拍卖).Buying for beginners: Sign up on www.ebay .co .uk. Most items (e. g. tables, computers, and books) ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with “Buy It Now” and have a fixed price. You can buy these right away. If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids(出价) for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10 days and when they finish you get an email telling you whether you have won the item. How to pay: Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you might not want to post a cheque or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card.Selling made simple: If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item. I followed my friends advice and put up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starting on a Thursday. This way buyers had two weekends to bid.The big things in life: Its easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to be collected or sent by deliverymen. Check the ways of delivery before you bid.60. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to make payment online. B. Ways of making delivery online. C. Advantages of an online-auction system. D. How to use an online-auction system.61. After bidding for an item, a buyer _.A. will get what he wants in ten days B. should make payment immediately C. has chances to make higher bids D. may check its picture and description 62. The easiest way of making payment mentioned in the passage is _.A. through an online payment system B. through a local banking system C. by sending the money to the seller D. by paying the deliveryman directly CMost Chinese people dont understand why some westerners dont eat meat. In China, to eat meat is a sign of wealth. If a westerner doesnt take a bite of their Peking duck, there is something wrong.But many people in Europe and America choose not to eat meat or fish they are known as vegetarians. In the US alone there are 12 million vegetarians and 19,000 more people stop eating meat every week.People often become vegetarians in order to lose weight or eat more healthily. A lot of research has shown that vegetarian diets are healthier than the average western diet. Fried chicken may be delicious to eat, but all that extra fat can damage your heartThere are many other reasons for turning veggie. It could be that you cannot afford to buy meat. Or maybe you just dont like the taste of it.A large number of vegetarians choose to give up meat because they believe it is cruel to kill animals for food. They believe many animals are not allowed to live in comfort and, when they are killed, it is carried out in a very painful way.While some vegetarians are happy not to eat animals, others take it one step further and refuse to eat any animal product. They are known as vegans and will not eat cheese, yoghurt and eggs, or drink milk. Neither will they wear clothes or shoes made from animal skin, such as leather. They say that if it is wrong to kill an animal for food, it is worse to kill it for clothing.But there are some groups that go even further. Fruitarians believe it is wrong to kill any living plant or animal. Besides refusing to eat meat, they will only eat fruit and vegetables that have not been killed when harvested. This means they cannot take an apple from a tree: they must wait until the apple falls to the ground. Only then can it be considered dead.63.
