33、ause that way I can put all my thoughts about the subject on the paper. Before we go on， I have to mention it is different when you write a review for yourself ie. your blog or website and for your professor in college.To an untrained eye, reviews may seem pointless. Whats the point of writing about
34、 something when other people and your professor have already read the book? Isnt it enough to talk about it in the class?Just as movie reviews develop your critical thinking, book reviews do the same. It is not enough to read a book and call it a day; you have to establish your opinion, your likes,
35、and dislikes. When a professor gives you this assignment, he/she wants to see your abilities to analyze the book and use vocabulary skills to discuss different parts of the plot.Since we are accustomed to writing book reports at a very young age, it comes as no surprise we dont think book reviews ar
36、e different than a book report. Contrary to the popular belief, book reviews and book reports are two different types of writing. Knowing how they differ is essential for writing a highquality paper that will guarantee a good grade.Book reports usually centre around topical details about the author
37、and the plot of the story. On the other hand, a book review is a more complicated approach to understanding and discussing a book. It doesnt centre around a summary of each section, but you have to carry out a thorough analysis. As you grow and develop as a student, so does your ability to think cri
38、tically. You dont just sum up what youve just read but analyze every piece of the puzzle in order to show the ability not only to pay attention to detail but also engage thinking critically. Here, you have to be careful that you arent, actually, just retelling the story.While book reviews may contai
39、n some elements of book report eg. author, characters, plot, the emphasis is to provide a more detailed insight, go deeper and elaborate strengths and weaknesses of the book, and discuss the elements of the story.You know the difference between book reports and book reviews, now what? Now youre read
40、y to begin the assignment. In order to write a thorough book review, you have to pay attention to everything about the book, which is why writing down the information about the author, genre etc. is strongly advised. Thats why youll need a pen and notebook where you can write everything.( )58. Accor
41、ding to the passage, what should be done before starting to write a review?A. Identifying the target reader. B. Consulting with your professor.C. Developing an interest in reviews. D. Listing all your thoughts on the paper.( )59. The author shows the importance of a book review mainly by_.A. giving
42、a solid example B. making a reasonable assumptionC. drawing a valid comparison D. providing a detailed description( )60. Where does the fundamental difference between a report and a review lie?A. Objective summary. B. Critical comments.C. Thorough comprehension. D. Personal abilities.CThe worlds mos
43、t complex biological computer, made from a group of engineered cells, could one day be implanted into the body to detect diseases and deliver treatments.In an early research in 2012, Martin Fussenegger at ETH Zurish in Switzerland and his colleagues engineered two kidney cells to become a biological
44、 circuit capable of simple mathematics. One of the cells was able to calculate addition: the presence or absence of each of two chemicals would switch on a reaction inside the cell that would make it shine different colours. The other cell worked in the same way but could subtract amounts. This kind
45、 of biological circuit resembles a simple logic circuit in a computer. In theory, it could be used to indicate the presence of an infectious substance while in fact it failed.Most biological reactions in the body arent that simple, though. They rarely rely on “one input and one output”instead, multi
46、ple inputs lead to different outputs. For instance, a high level of calcium in the body in the presence of a specific hormone may suggest one disease, but a high level of calcium along with another hormone might indicate a completely different condition.To be more practical, biological computers nee
47、d to be able to perform more complex mathematics. However, it is hard to pack multiple calculations into a single cell. To get around this, Fussenegger and his team have engineered a multicellular system, in which different cells each perform a separate calculation and pass on the results to each other.The system has nine cells, each containing a biochemical reaction that responds to three chemical inputssimilar to an AND, NOT and OR system in a traditional electronic circuit. These cells coordinate their activities by r
