7、last item is the law, though sometimes its a hassle(难事)to obey.Independent tax advisor Bob Gilbert calls the US income tax system amazingly complicated. But he adds that very little of the complicated tax law applies to young people who are just beginning their careers. According to Gilbert, 80 to 9
8、0 percent of Americans are not really burdened by the systems complications.Still, all the numbers and forms can be a little confusing to those who are just starting their careers. Some pull out their calculators and try to do the math alone. Some use income tax software. Others just hand the whole
9、responsibility over to tax firms like Gilberts. According to income tax law expert Linda Beale, young people will often follow their parents lead when filling their income forms.Young people who grow up in wealthy households typically use professional tax services because their parents have always d
10、one so, said Beale, a professor at Wayne State University in Michigan State.On the other hand, most poorer young people probably try to do their own taxes, unless they want a quick refund with the help of a tax advisor.In fact, obeying the law has its benefits. For one, many young people can expect
11、a tax refund. This means that, over the course of the year, they have paid too much in monthly federal or state taxes and are entitled to the difference.Bob Thalman, a 20-year-old university student, expects he will get a refund of about 100, which will probably go in the bank, or perhaps be used to
12、 pay for car insurance or credit card bills.Thalman called the whole process a hassle, but added that he didnt wat to test the law by not filling his income tax papers.Im worried about what would happen if I failed to file, he said.

17、ic riddle that endures to this day.2 A dazzling light pierced the heavens,followed by a shock wave as strong as 1,000 atomic bombs. The explosion flattened 80 million trees across an area of 2,000 square kilometers. The fireball was so great that, a day later, Londoners could read their newspapers u
18、nder the night sky. What caused the so-called Tunguska Event, named after the nearby Podkamennaya Tunguska river, still remains a mystery.3 Experts suspect it was a rock that, after traveling in space for millions of years, was destined to crash to Earth at exactly 7:17 a.m. on June 30, 1908. This p
19、ossibility worries scientists.“Imagine an unspotted asteroid (小行星) hitting a significant chunk(块) of land . and imagine if that area, unlike Tunguska, were populated,” the British science journal Nature commented recently.4 But no fragments of the “rock” have ever been found. Finding such evidence w

When the next Tunguska NEO approaches, scientists will have to decide whether to try to deflect (使偏转) it or b
21、low it up in space.5 However, several rival theories for the Tunguska Event exist. Wolfgang Kundt, a professor at Germanys Bonn University,believes the Tunguska Event was caused by a massive escape of 10 million tons of methane(甲烷)-rich gas from deep within earths crust. Some people hold that the ex

The black holes gravity p
25、ulls harder on the nearest part of the star, an imbalance that pulls the star apart over a period of minutes or hours, once it gets close enough.Scientists say this uneven pulling is not the only hazard facing the star. The strain of these unbalanced forces can also trigger a nuclear explosion power
26、ful enough to destroy the star from within.Matthieu Brassart and Jean-Pierre Luminet of the Observatoire de Paris in Meudon, France, carried out computer simulations of the final moments of such an unfortunate stars life,as it veered towards a super massive black hole.When the star gets close enough
27、, the uneven forces flatten it into a pancake shape.Some previous studies had suggested this flattening would increase the density and temperature inside the star enough to trigger intense nuclear reactions that would tear it apart. But other studies had suggested that the picture would be complicat
28、ed by shock waves generated during the flattening process and that no nuclear explosion should occur.The new simulations investigated the effects of shock waves in detail, and found that even when their effects are included, the conditions favor a nuclear explosion. There will be an explosion of the
29、 star it will be completely destroyed, Brassart says. Although the explosion obliterates the star, it saves some of the stars matter from being devoured by the black hole.The explosion is powerful enough to hurl much of the stars matter out of the black holes reach, he says.The devouring of stars by
30、 black holes may already have been observed, although at a much later stage. It is thought that several months after the event that rips the star apart,its matter starts swirling into the hole itself. It heats up as it does so, releasing ultraviolet light and X-rays.If stars disrupted near black hol
31、es really do explode, then they could in principle allow these events to be detected at a much earlier stage, says Jules Halpern of Columbia University in New York, US.It may make it possible to see the disruption of that star immediately if it gets hot enough, he says.Brassart agrees. Perhaps it ca
32、n be observed in the X-rays and gamma rays, but its something that needs to be more studied, he says. Supernova researcher Chris Fryer of the Los Alamos National Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico, US , says the deaths of these stars are difficult to simulate, and he is not sure whether the resear
33、chers have proven their Case that they explode in the process.31. what would take place if a star gets too close to a black hole?A.The black hole could reduce its size considerably.32.

35、ports star in the world, he is almost certainly the tallest. At 2.26m, he is the tallest player in the National Association (NBA) and holds the record as the most towering Olympian ever to compete in the Games.But what really stands out about the giant center is his celebrity (名气). Few, if any, Chin
36、ese athletes are as well-known as Yao around the world. People across the globe are fascinated with Yao, not only for his basketball prowess (杰出才干) but also for being a symbol of international commerce.When Yao joined the Houston Rockets as the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft (选拔), he was the first inte
37、rnational player ever to be selected first. His assets on the court are clear enough no NBA player of his size has ever possessed his mobility, so he isa handful (难对付人)for opponents on either end of the court. But what makes Yao invaluable to the Rockets organization is his role as a global citizen
38、and as abridge to millions of potential basketball fans in China.When it was announced in February that Yao would miss the rest of the NBA season and possibly the Olympics with a stress fracture (骨折)in his left foot, a collective shudder (震动) spread across China. After considerable debate and discus
39、sion, Yao opted to get his foot surgically treated in an operation that placed several tiny screws across the bone, to offer his overburdened foot more support. The surgery was a success,and though the estimated four-month recovery period will leave him little time to prepare with Team China, Yao ha
40、s vowed to be ready for the Beijing Olympics.Yao wrapped up a 10-day trip to China,where he underwent a series of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments, hoping to accelerate his recovery process. Western experts are generally skeptical of TCMs benefits, although new research from the univers
41、ity of Rochester suggests that a certain compound derived from shellfish may speed stimulate bone repair.“There is no reason to dismiss TCM,Yao told a press conference in Beijing. “Its been used in our country for thousands of years. I dont think that its short on science.”36. The word towering in P

The error occurs because of a flaw in the way they estimate ani
45、mal numbers from the piles of dung(粪) the creatures leave behind.The mistake could lead researchers to think that there are twice as many elephants as there really are in some regions,according to Andrew Plumptre of the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) in New York.Biologist Katy Payne of Cornell
46、University in Ithaca, New York, agrees. “We really need to know elephant numbers and the evidence that we have is quite indirect,” says Payne, who electronically tracks elephants.Counting elephants from planes is impossible in the vast rainforests of Central Africa. So researchers often estimate elephant numbers by counting dung piles in a given area. They also need to know the rate at which dung decays: Because its extremely difficult to determine these rates, however, researchers counting elephants in on
