Oxford and Cambridge University Boat Clubs

题型:单项选择题

问题:

Oxford and Cambridge University Boat Clubs have both taken the opportunity to travel to Spain this month to train in less testing weather conditions than those which have, quite literally, already blown around the UK in January of 2007.

Each group of athletes has been focused on training to the maximum, working on technique and molding themselves into two potential fighting units per Club for the 2007 Boat Race, sponsored by Xchanging. One set will be in the Blue Boat for each club and one set will race as reserves in Isis, for Oxford, and Goldie, for Cambridge.

In these modern times, the Head Coach for each club has a huge input on selection even though the crew is still named by the President. Just twenty years ago the balance was not quite the same.

The year 1987 will always be remembered in the history of this great Race as the year of the "mutiny" at Oxford. It is a tale which has since been retold and reworked in both a book and a movie.

This was the season for which mature Scottish student, Donald Macdonald, was elected President, having all ready won a Blue in 1986. Macdonald re-appointed Daniel Topolski (now a renowned rowing journalist and broadcaster) as Chief Coach.

Part of the 1986/87 squad at Oxford included American Chris Clark, now a coach at an American University, and four fellow US internationals.

Allegedly, a split appeared in the squad between the American quintet, all experienced and leading oarsmen, and those rowers closest to Macdonald. The Scot’s group were happy to follow Topolski’s regime whilst the others were not so sure.

Following a contentious seat racing trial in January of 1987, Topolski decided to move Clark to the bow-side of the beat. Clark disagreed. Topolski held firm. As a result Clark and his "group" within the squad decided not to ROW and sought a takeover.

The squabble was played out extensively in the UK national media and caught the public imagination. MacDonald sought support from the college captains and eventually won a vote of confidence by 28 votes to 11.

Without the Americans, the Oxford crew was immediately considered a lost cause. Cambridge were overwhelming favorites to win.

As it turned out, though, this was a Race which would prove why sport, and particularly The Boat Race, can be so fascinating.

It can be inferred that "Isis" and "Goldie" are the names of two ().

A. places

B. teams

C. races

D. clubs

用如图所示电路测量干电池的电动势和内阻(电动势约为1.5 V,内阻约0.5Ω,允许通过的最大电流为0.6 A)。图中电压表V:量程2.0v,内阻3000Ω;电流表A:量程0.10 A,内阻为5.0Ω。另除被测电池、开关和导线外,还有如下器材:

A.滑动变阻器:阻值范围0-10Ω;

B.滑动变阻器:阻值范围0-100Ω;

C.定值电阻:阻值为100Ω;

D.定值电阻:阻值为1Ω。

(1)为了满足实验要求并保证实验的精确度,R2应选_____________Ω的定值电阻;为便于调节,图中R1应选择阻值范围是_____________Ω的滑动变阻器。

(2)实验中,当电流表读数为0.10 A时,电压表读数为1.16 V;当电流表读数为0.05 A时,电压表读数为1.28 V。则可以求出E=_____________V,r=_____________Ω。
