更多"We do not usually give much thought"的相关试题:
[简答题]We do not usually give much thought to how the things that surround us in our everyday lives are created. Everything we use—from the knives and forks we eat with to the chairs we sit on and the computers we work at—has been designed. (91) Designing may seem simple, but only those who are creative, practical, and sensitive to people’s needs can be successful designers.
Designers are artists, first of all. They have to be creative enough to come up with original ideas all the time. They then turn these ideas into actual objects of beauty. (92) Even when they produce an ordinary object like a knife, they should try to make it attractive. However, that is not enough. Good designing requires much, much more.
There are practical issues to consider as well. (93) In an age of mass production, designers have to be familiar with manufacturing techniques and the best ways of using materials. (94) For example, it is no use designing an elegant knife which is complicated

How much sleep do we need
It is probably true to say that up to thirty years ago not only could we not
answer this question, but we could see no research tools which might eventually
enable us to do so. Since then, there have been important developments which
have changed the picture; in particular new forms and techniques of
neurophysiological measurement have emerged, and secondly, experimental
psychology has developed better methods of evaluating human performance and
behaviour. Studies, for example, of body and eye movements, of sensory
thresholds, and above all, of the electrical potentials of the brain during
sleep, encourage us to think that we may be able to assess with useful accuracy
the depth of quality of sleep. In carefully controlled experiments also the
amount of sleep has been carried to find the effects of lack of sleep upon
performance and upon physiological changes in the body, especially
A. Advancement in neurophysiological measurement.
B. Improvement in experimental psychology.
C. Studies of the electrical potentials of the brain.
D. Experiments of physiological changes in the body.

[简答题]The culture of any society is usually thought to be of two kinds: material and nonmaterial. Material culture includes the man-made phenomena which have physical properties such as height, breadth, and weight. A boat, a machine, a house — all these objects are part of the material culture. The nonmaterial culture is that portion of the environment which surrounds man and which has an impact on his behavior but which lacks these material properties: values, beliefs, traditions, and all the other habits and ideas invented and acquired by man as a member of society. Contemporary sociological theory tends to assign primary importance to the nonmaterial culture in choosing problems for study. It assumes, for example, that boats, planes, automobiles, and so forth, are not nearly so important as the traditions we have developed which make their manufacture possible — indeed, which prescribe how we are to use them. The emphasis of contemporary sociology is to insist that the material culture wo
[单项选择]The United States is not usually thought of as a nation of parakeet lovers. Yet in a census of parakeet owners in selected comparable countries, the United States ranked second, with eleven parakeet owners per hundred people. The conclusion can be drawn from this that people in the United States are more likely to own parakeets than are people in most other countries.
Knowledge of which of the following would be most useful in judging the accuracy of the conclusion
A. The number of parakeets in the United States.
B. The number of parakeet owners in the United States.
C. The number of parakeet owners per hundred people in the country that ranked first in the census.
D. The number of parakeet owners in the United States compared to the numbers of owners of other pet birds in the United States.
E. (E) The numbers of parakeet owners per hundred people in the countries not included in the census.

[单项选择]How can we get rid of garbage Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs
These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time. They suggest using garbage as an energy source.
For a long time people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land. Now, empty land is scarce. But more and more garbage is produced each year. However, garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuels. As we use up our fossil--fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.
Burning garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings. In Paris, France,
