The dog looked to be on its last legs, and there was an unusual lump on the side of its body. An X-ray and emergency surgery revealed the presence of 10 condoms tightly packed with five pounds of cocaine that had been surgically implanted in the dog’s abdomen - yet another first for Customs in the war on drugs. When it comes to transporting drags, the methods used are only as limited as a smuggler’s imagination. Kilo bricks of cocaine are routinely concealed beneath false bottoms of containers that hold poisonous snakes.

In fact, I remember the evening I was at a girlfriend’s house, and we were watching a movie-a terribly romantic movie. He (the hero of the movie) was in love, she (his lady) was beautiful, and they were both smoking. My friend had only two cigarettes from a pack in her mother’s purse, and she gave one to me. It was my first time. My parents didn’t care much. They both smoked, and my older brother did too. My mother told me that smokers don’t grow tall, but I was already5’6"(taller than most of the boys in my class), so I was happy to hear that "fact". In school, the teachers talked against smoking, but the cigarette advertisements were so exciting. The men in the ads were so good-looking and so successful, and the women were-well, they were beautiful and sophisticated(老于世故的). I read a book called how to stop smoking. The writer said that smoking wastes time, and that cigarettes cost a lot of money. "So what " A. educational institutions B. one’s social status C. the mass media D. public opinions 查看答案 [单项选择]第三篇 　　 Water 　　The second most important constituent (构成成份) of the biosphere (生物圈) is liquid water. This can only exist in a very narrow range of temperatures, since water freezes at 0℃ and boils at 100℃. Life as we know it would only be possible on the surface of a planet which had temperatures somewhere within this narrow range. 　　The earth’s supply of water probably remains fairly constant in quantity. The total quantity of water is not known very accurately, but it is about enough to cover the surface of the globe to a depth of about two and three-quarter kilometers. Most of it is in the form of the salt water of the oceans about 97 percent. The rest is fresh, but three quarters of this is in the form of ice at the Poles and on mountains, and cannot be used by living systems until melted. Of the remaining fractional which is somewhat less than one per cent of the whole, there is 10—20 times as much stored underground water as t A. in the center of the earth. B. on the surface of our planet. C. in a very narrow range of temperatures. D. in the coastal areas of the earth. 查看答案 我来回答: 提交 最新试题 ●    [判断题]自控力是一个人心理成熟度的体现，没有自控力就没有好的学习习惯。 ●    [单选题][T]A-B-001 4 2 3变压器差动保护中TA断线监测用于( )。 ●    柴油机的经济性能指标是（）。 ●    [多选题]（　　）都应实行最低工资制度。 ●    [多选题]电缆径路上应设置（ ）标识？ ●    [多选题]关于癔症性抽搐发作,以下说法不正确的是:( ) 网站地图 我要搜题网  版权所有  ©2024  湘ICP备18016427号   购买搜题卡查看答案 [会员特权] 开通VIP， 查看 全部题目答案 [会员特权] 享免全部广告特权 推荐91天 ¥36.8 ￥80元 31天 ¥20.8 ￥40元 365天 ¥88.8 ￥188元 请选择支付方式 微信支付 支付宝支付 点击支付即表示同意并接受了《购买须知》 立即支付 系统将自动为您注册账号 已有账号登录 找回账号密码 请使用微信扫码支付 订单号： 截图扫码使用小程序[完全免费查看答案] 前往小程序 请不要关闭本页面，支付完成后请点击【支付完成】按钮 支付完成 取消支付 恭喜您，购买搜题卡成功 系统为您生成的账号密码如下： 账号 密码 重要提示：请拍照或截图保存账号密码！ 我要搜题网官网：https://www.woyaosouti.com 我已记住账号密码
