26、 best place to search for it is Wikipedia. The name “Wikipedia” is from the Hawaiian word wiki, meaning “quick”. This online encyclopedia (百科全书) is written by thousands of people around the world. Anyone with Internet access can write, add or make changes to Wikipedia articles if he or she finds it
27、incorrect or not well written. In this way, people who know a lot about a certain subject can write about it even if they are not university professors. But contributions cannot damage Wikipedia because many experienced editors are watching pages and techies (技术专家) can write editing programs to keep
28、 track of or correct bad edits. Where there are disagreements on how to present facts, editors work together to arrive at an article that fairly represents current expert opinion on the subject.Wikipedia is quite different from paper-based reference sources in important ways. Unlike printed encyclop
29、edias, it is continually created and updated, with articles on historic events appearing within minutes, rather than months or years.Whats more, Wikipedia includes articles written in about 285 languages. This fact makes it one of the few websites on the Internet that are truly international. It was
30、 started in 2001 by Larry Sanger and Jimmy Wales, as a free online English-language encyclopedia project. Since its creation, it has grown rapidly into one of the largest reference websites, attracting nearly 500million unique visitors monthly. There are more than 77,000active contributors working o
31、n more than 22,000,000articles in differentlanguages. As of today, there are 4,396,866articles in English. So, if you are looking for some information, why not try Wikipedia? Its free, multilingual，and informative. 56. According to the passage, what is Wikipedia?A. A free website encyclopedia.B. A c
32、omputer game.C. A free encyclopedia in book form.D. An online university.57. From the passage we know that _.A. Wikipedia catches a wide audienceB. Wikipedia only charges users a small feeC. incorrect editions might do great harm to WikipediaD. it will take long to update the information on Wikipedi
33、a58. Where can we probably read the passage?A. In a story book.B. In a research report.C. In a science magazine.D. In a travel brochure.BSixteen-year-old Karlos Dearmans future is looking much brighter than he might previously have imagined. “I love bikes, but Ive never thought Id end up with workin
34、g with them,” he says. “This program has changed my life.”Karlos is learning to refurbish (翻新) old bicycles in the workshop (车间) of ReCycle Bikes, an independent non-profit bike project in Sheffield. It provides training chances for young people aged 14 to 16 with the help of the local government, p
35、articularly those struggling in mainstream education or rejected from school.“Its about engaging young people with education and youth training by teaching them work and life skills,” explains Des Pearce, workshop training manager. “These young people have so much potential, but often dont realize i
36、t.”Founded in 2001, ReCycle Bikes repairs bicycles donated by the public, which are sold for 20 after refurbished. Abandoned bikes supplied by the government make sure a steady flow of bikes, but a recently formed partnership with Sheffield University should improve the further development.“The stud
37、ent population presents a large and ready market,” says Pearce. “So we approached the university last year and offered to host bike sales on the campus (校园) . They thought it was a great idea, and agreed to provide us with more support. This means we can train young people to repair extra 500 bikes
38、over three years.”Having set up ReCycle Bikes on his own, Pearce now has the staff and resources to track the profession development of those who have passed through his workshop. “But we are planning exit interviews with the young people to make sure what they plan to do, and these will allow us to
39、 check on their progress,” says Pearce.That most of the teenagers enjoy the work is, according to Pearce, easily explained. “Most kids have ridden a bike and know how to oil a chain or mend a flat tyre. As low-cost transport, cycling gives the young and old a sense of freedom and independence, and t
40、he effect on their well-being is big. Add to that a growing concern for the environment, and its no surprise that bike sales are on the increase.” 59.

44、and interested in them.CMen are spending more and more time in the kitchen encouraged by celebrity (名人) chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver, according to a report from Oxford University. The effect of the celebrity role models, who have given cooking a more manly picture, has combined with a m
45、ore general drive towards sexual equality and men now spend more than twice the amount of time preparing meals than they did in 1961.According to the research by Prof. Jonatahn Gershuny, who runs the Centre for Time Research at Oxford, men now spend more than half an hour a day cooking, up from just
46、 12 minutes a day in 1961.Prof. Gershuny said, “The man in the kitchen is part of a much wider social trend. There has been 40 years of sexual equality, but there is another 40 years probably to come.”Women, who a generation ago spent nearly two hours a day cooking, now spend just one hour and seven minutesa great fall, but they still spend far more time in the kitchen than men.Some experts have named these men in aprons as “Gastrosexuals (men using cooking skills to impress friends)”
