Scattered through the seas of the world are billions of tons of small plants and animals called plankton. Most of these plants and animals are too small for the human eye to see. They drift about lazily with the currents, providing a basic food for many larger animals. Plankton has been described as the equivalent of the grasses that grow on the dry land continents, and the comparison is an appropriate one. In potential food value however, plankton far outweighs that of the land grasses. One scientist has estimated that while grasses of the world produce about 49 billion tons of valuable carbohydrates each year. The sea’s plankton generates more than twice as much.
Despite its enormous food potential, little effort was made until recently to farm plankton as we farm grasses on land. Now marine scientists have at last begun to study this possibility, especially as the sea’s resources loom even more important as a means of feeding an expanding world population.
No one yet has seriously suggested that “planktonburgers” may soon become popular around the world. As a possible farmed supplementary food source, however, plankton is gaining considerable interest among marine scientists.
One type of plankton that seems to have great harvest possibilities is a tiny shrimplike creature called krill. Growing to two or three inches long, krill provide the major food for the giant blue whale, the largest animal ever to inhabit the Earth. Realizing that this whale may grow 100 feet and weigh 150 tons at maturity, it is not surprising that each one devours more than one ton of krill daily.
Krill swim about just below the surface in huge schools sometimes miles wide, mainly in the cold Antarctic. Because of their pink color, they often appear as a solid reddish mass when viewed from a ship or from the air. Krill are very high in food value. A pound of these crustaceans contains about 460 calories—about the same as shrimp or lobster, to which they are related.
If the krill can feed such huge creatures as whales, many scientists reason, they must certainly be contenders as new food source for humans.

Without regular supplies of some hormones our capacity to behave would be seriously impaired; without others we would soon die. Tiny amounts of some hormones can modify moods and actions, our inclination to eat or drink, our aggressiveness or submissiveness, and our reproductive and parental behavior. And hormones do more than influence adult behavior; early in life they help to determine the development of bodily form and may even determine an individual’s behavioral capacities. Later in life the changing outputs of some endocrine glands and the body’s changing sensitivity to some hormones are essential aspects of the phenomena of aging.
Communication within the body and the consequent integration of behavior were considered the exclusive province of the nervous system up to the beginning of the present century. The emergence of endocrinology as a separate discipline can probably be traced to the experiments of Bayliss and Starling on the hormone secretion. This substance is secreted from cells in the intestinal walls when food enters the stomach; it travels through the bloodstream and stimulates the pancreas to liberate pancreatic juice, which aids in digestion. By showing that special cells secret chemical agents that are conveyed by the bloodstream and regulate distant target organs or tissues. Bayliss and starling demonstrated that chemical integration could occur without participation of the nervous system.
The term “hormone” was first used with reference to secretion. Starling derived the term from the Greek hormone, meaning “to excite or set in motion. The term “endocrine” was introduced shortly thereafter “Endocrine” is used to refer to glands that secret products into the bloodstream. The term “endocrine” contrasts with “exocrine”, which is applied to glands that secret their products though ducts to the site of action. Examples of exocrine glands are the tear glands, the sweat glands, and the pancreas, which secrets pancreatic juice through a duct into the intestine. Exocrine glands are also called duct glands, while endocrine glands are called ductless.
1.What is the author’s main purpose in the passage?
A.To explain the specific functions of various hormones.

D.To report on experiments in endocrinology.

A.The human body requires large amounts of most hormones.
B.Synthetic hormones can replace a person’s natural supply of hormones if necessary.
C.The quantity of hormones produced and their effects on the body are related to a person’s age.
D.The short child of tall parents very likely had a hormone deficiency early in life.
3.It can be inferred from the passage that before the Bayliss and Starling experiments, most people believed that chemical integration occurred only___.
A.during sleep.
B.in the endocrine glands.
C.under control of the nervous system.
D.during strenuous exercise.

从教二十余年,洪老师的很多事迹,让学生终身难忘。
一年秋天,学生们刚开始上课,外面突然大雨倾盆,班上三名学生晒在宿舍外面的被褥被淋湿了,洪老师就让他们晚上住在自己家里,还给他们做饭吃;一名学生从几十里外的山日乘汽车来校时,生活费被盗,洪老师除与有关部门协调外,还自己掏钱替学生垫付伙食费;有一次,校外不良青年来到学校,拿刀威逼学生,索要学生财物,她奋不顾身地保护学生,而后积极向有关部门呼吁,净化校园周边环境,同时向学生讲解自我保护的方法。
有一年春季刚开学,—位老人把她的孙女小芳领到洪老师的面前。老人说:“小芳以前—直跟着打工的父母在外地,转了几次学,学习成绩不好。她害怕老师和同学们嫌弃她,希望老师多费心。”洪老师说:“小芳是我的学生,我会尽心去教的。只要她肯努力,踏实学,认真做事,就是好学生。”在洪老师有针对性的帮助和指导下,小芳进步很快,初中毕业时以优异成绩考上了高中。
洪老师很注重对自己的教育教学成败进行反思总结。她的教育随笔《我的表扬何以会成为学生的压力》《如何让给文言文不再枯燥难学》《如何让学生在青春期不恐慌》《班主任怎样才能赢得科任教师的支持》相继获奖,大家都说她是名副其实的好老师。

案例分析题:
在一节语文公开课上,当我讲到“一千万万颗行星”这句话时,班上最调皮的赵强同学突然阴阳怪气地问到:“老师,‘万万’是什么意思?”惹得全班同学哄堂大笑。面对听课老师们关切的目光,我平静地说:“大家都知道‘万万’等于‘亿’,那么,这里为什么不用‘亿’而用‘万万’呢?”全班同学马上安静下来,开始认真思考,并且发表了自己的看法,大家讨论完后,我进行了分析和总结,最后我又问了一句:“请大家想想,今天这一‘额外’的收获是怎么来的呢?大家要感谢谁呢?请让我们用掌声表达对他的谢意!”大家把目光转向赵强同学,对他鼓起掌来,赵强不好意思地低下了头。
为了进一步了解赵强的情况,我决定进行家访。他知道后,立刻紧张起来,他特意找到我,叫我千万别向他爸妈告状。因为从前的老师经常告他状,事后他总免不了皮肉之苦,所以至今心有余悸。我安慰他:“不用担心,我只是想更多地了解你。”那天,我在他家,他因为害怕,躲在房间不敢出来,但不时探出头来想听我讲些什么。在他爸妈面前,我不但没有告他的状,反而夸奖他的进步。回到学校,他对我说:“老师,你真够朋友,以后瞧我的!”此后,我经常在课后找机会针对他学习中存在的问题进行辅导,还专门针对他的学习情况制定教学计划。赵强很努力,在各方面都有了进步,像变了个人似的。
