Good tool design is important in the prevention of overuse injuries. Well designed tools and equipment will require less force to operate them and prevent awkward(別扭的)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(肌肉)power
●tools with specially designed handles that allow the wrist(手腕)to keep straight
(See Figure 1). This means that hands and wrists are kept in the same position as they would be if they were hanging relaxed at a person’s side
Figure l. Bend the tool, not the wrist
●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.
60.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Good Tool Design for Women.
B.Importance of Good Tool Design.
C.Tool Design and Prevention of Injuries.
D.Overuse of Tools and Worker Protection.
61.Which of the following describes a well-designed tool?
A.It’s kept close to the body. B.It fully uses muscle power.
C.It makes users feel relaxed D.It’s operated with less force.
62.What is Figure 1 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.
63.In choosing tools for women, _________ of the handle is the most important.
A.the size B.the edge C.the shape D.the position

A group of students in Japan have created a realistic robot baby to motivate young people to start planning a family so as to increase the country’s birth rate. The automated (自動化的)doll developed at the University of Tsukuba, called Yotara, laughs and “wakes up” when a rattle is shaken.
He can become angry and sleep like a real baby and he smiles when his stomach is pressed. The robot can also sneeze and have a runny nose, thanks to a heated water pump system. The students of the Graduate school of Comprehensive Human Science at the university created the robot last year with touch sensors. A projector sends the facial features onto a warm silicon balloon which makes up Yotara’s face. The robot’s facial expression and body movements change according to pressure applied to different parts of its body.
The information collected through touch sensors(傳感器)under the silicon skin is processed by a special programme. It then changes the baby’s expression projected onto the balloon-face from behind. There is a hat on the robot’s head and a colorful blanket covering the robot’s limbs which simulate wiggling(擺動) with the help of a geared motor. “We wanted to create a new type of robot that is soft, cuddly and cute,” said project leader Hiroki Kunimura.
“We’d like people to experience the innocent, joyful expressions typical of small babies. Through this experience, it would be great if some people started feeling that they wanted to have their own baby, if they started feeling that work is not everything.”
Japan’s birth rate is among the lowest in the developed world at 1.37%, compared to 2.12% in the United States and l.84%in Britain. Japan is facing serious economic consequences with over a quarter of its citizens expected to be aged over 65 by 20l5.The population is expected to reduce by a third within 50 years if the birth rate does not increase.
【小題1】. What is the students’ purpose of creating such a baby?
A.To help old people who live alone. | B.To give small children some pleasure |
C.To comfort lonely young people. | D.To increase the population of Japan. |
A.It can do everything for humans. | B.It is clever, humorous and loyal. |
C.It is gentle, lovely and smart. | D.It makes humans unhappy. |
A.Many young people in Japan don’t want to get married. |
B.There may be a lack of workers in Japan in the future. |
C.The lifespan(壽命)of Japanese people will decrease in the future. |
D.The birth rate in Japan will start to increase slowly soon. |

科目:高中英語 來源:2010-2011學年湖北省黃岡市3月份高三質(zhì)量檢測英語卷 題型:閱讀理解
When you are at odds with someone close to you,the One-Minute Drill can show you how to express your feelings effectively-and how to listen more skillfully.All it requires is two individuals who are committed to improving their relationship.
Set aside at least ten minutes,and then sit facing each other.Decide who will be the Talker and who will be the Lastener.It makes no difference,because later you will change roles.
How to perform the One-Minute Drill
For approximately 30 seconds,the Talker can say anything he or she wants.Your job will be to express your thoughts and feelings.You can discuss problems you’ve had a hard time talking about.Remember to limit yourself to about 30 seconds.When the Talker finishes,the Listener will summarize what the Talker just said,as well as how the Talker was feeling inside,as accurately as possible.
The Talker now gives the Listener a grade between 0 and 100 percent to indicate how accurate the summary was.If the rating is 95 percent or more,you can change roles;the new Talker can continue with the same topic or move on to something entirely new.
However,if the grade is below 95 percent,the Talker should point out what the Listener missed or got wrong,and repeat the process until the overall rating is 95 percent or more.Then you can change roles and repeat the exercise for as long as you both like.
How it works
Thirty seconds of emotionally charged information is sufficiently challenging for anyone.Express your feelings in strong,clear,direct language,but as your partner will be listening attentively,you won’t need to shout,exaggerate or put your partner down.
The Listener should sit and listen respectfully without interrupting.Look into your partner’s eyes,but avoid using negative body language. If you like,take a few notes.
So the Talker might say:“When I come home from work, I feel tired and I need some quiet time.But you tell me I’m supposed to spend time with the kids.This makes me feel frustrated.I work hard and I’m exhausted at the end of the day.I feel like I deserve a little time to relax,not listen to more demands.”
In response,the Listener might summarize like this:“You just told me that you feel exhausted when you come home at night because you’ve been working hard all day.When l tell you l want you to spend time with the kids,you feel frustrated and ticked off because you’re tired and you need time to relax.You see me as very demanding,and you’re probably feeling like I don’t appreciate you.”
The first time you attempt the One-Minute Drill,you may get a low score.Don’t worry,because you’ll get up to speed quickly.Once you’ve tried this exercise a few times,you’ll find that you can nearly always get ratings of 95 percent or better on the first or second try.
1.Who is the One-Minute Drill intended for?
A.Those who are preparing for the interview in order to make a good first impression.
B.Those who have difficulty communicating with their colleagues or family members.
C.Those who have troubled relationships with their friends or family members and try to improve them.
D.Those who are to act some roles in a certain play for the first time in their life.
2.Which of the following is NOT true?
A.The Talker should talk about his/her thoughts and feelings in a brief way.
B.The Listener should listen carefully,respectfully and later summarize accurately.
C.After the Talker finishes talking,the Listener is to give him/her a grade.
D.In the One-Minute Drill,the Talker and the Listener change roles in the process.
3.From the example given in“How it works”,we can guess that the talk might be between .
A.father and son B.mother and daughter
C.sister and brother D.husband and wife
4.What does the underlined part“ticked off”probably mean in this reading?
