29、 upside down in search of china marks. To such a customer, Harrington would lean forward, benevolent and confidential, and in a conspiratorial whisper would murmur: No, madam. Im afraid its not genuine (Wedgwood, Sevres - whatever it might be) but it is a superb copy - no one would ever suspect that

30、 it was not real, unless, of course, you told them. I can let you have it for - I could sell it for much more, but it would be unethical of me to try to pass it off as genuine The customer, overwhelmed by such honesty and privately determined not to be quite so honest about the article to heir frien

31、ds, would then willingly pay 2 for something that had cost Harrington a few pence. The profit margin on these transactions was obviously so great that he was soon able to set up another stall and then a shop and yet another and so on. He enlarged his specialties, dealing in spurious Victoriana, Geor

32、gian silver, trinkets and bric-a-brac, eventually branching out into reproduction furniture and paintings. Without any deliberate intention of doing so, he acquired an extensive knowledge of the antique business and as time went on, was accounted one of the greatest experts of his time.36. It seems

36、 in hill-climbing contests or in carving new trails in the desert. But recent scientific studies show that these off-road vehicles can cause damage to desert landscapes that has long-range effects on the areas water-conserving characteristics and on the entire ecology, both plant and animal. Researc

37、h by scientists in the western Mojave Desert in California revealed that compaction of the sandy arid soil resulting from the passage of just one motorcycle markedly reduced the infiltration ability of the soil and created a stream of rain runoff water that eroded the hillside surface. In addition,

38、the researchers discovered that the soil compaction cause by the off-road vehicles often killed native plants species and resulted in the invasion of different plant species within a few years. The native perennial species required many more years before they showed signs of returning. The scientist

39、s calculated that roughly a century would be required for the infiltration capacity of the Mojave soil to be restored after being compared by vehicles.39.

41、 Tiny amounts of some hormones can modify our moods and our actions, our inclination to eat or to 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 bodil

Later in life the changing outputs of some endocrine glands and the bodys changing sensitivity to some hormones are essential aspects of the phenomena of aging.Communication within the body and the consequent integration of behavior

43、 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 cell in the in

44、testinal 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.

45、Bayliss and Starling demonstrated that chemical integration can occur without participation of the nervous system.The term hormone was first used with reference to secretion. Starling derived the term form the Greek hormone, meaning to excite or set in motion. The term endocrine was introduced short

46、ly thereafter. Endocrine is used to refer to glands that secrete products into the bloodstream. The term endocrine contrasts with exocrine, which is applied to glands that secrete their products through ducts to the site of action. Examples of exocrine juice through a duct into the intestine.
