A
Thousands of years ago man used handy rocks for his surgical(外科) operations. Later he used sharp bone or horn, metal knives and, more recently, rubber and plastic. And that was what were used for many years. In the 1960s a new tool was developed, one which was, first of all, to be of great practical use to the armed forces and industry, but which was also, in time, to revolutionize the art and science of surgery.
The tool is the laser(激光) and it is being used by more and more surgeons all over the world, for a very large number of different cases. As we all know, light is hot; any source of light—from the sun itself down to a small match burning—will give warmth. But light is usually spread out over a wide area. The light in a laser beam, however, is concentrated (集中). This means that a light with no more power than that produced by an ordinary electric light lamp becomes quite strong as it is concentrated to a pinpointsized beam.
Experiments with these pinpoint beams have shown researchers that different energy sources produce beams that have a particular effect on certain living cells. It is now possible for eye surgeons to carry out an operation on the back of the human eye without harming the front of the eye, simply by passing a laser beam right through the eyeball. No knives, no needles, no unwanted damage—a true surgical wonder.
Operations which once left patients tired and in need of long periods of recovery time now leave them feeling relaxed and comfortable.So much more difficult operations can now be tried.
The rapid development of laser techniques in the past ten years has made it clear that the future is likely to be very exciting. Perhaps some cancers will be treated with laser in a way that makes surgery not only safer but more effective. Altogether, tomorrow may see more and more information coming to light on the diseases which can be treated medically.
56.We find that after the development of the laser in the 1960s,______.
A.medical help became hard for industrial workers
B.the study of surgical techniques went through a complete revolution
C.more and more surgeons began using surgical instruments
D.man's whole thought to surgery changed completely
57.The laser beam is very strong because
A.it is a highly intensified(强化) beam of light
B.its strength is increased by the sun
C.it can be connected to strong light sources
D.it is a concentration of light from different sources
58.Surgeons can now carry out operations which________.
A.can be performed successfully only on the human eye
B.result in long periods of recovery time for patients
C.result in very little damage to the patients
D.are made much more complicated by using the laser beam
59.The rapid development of laser techniques means that
A.in another ten years we shall be able to cure cancer
B.surgery is likely to improve greatly
C.we shall be able to treat all the diseases we suffer from
D.we are now able to treat most forms of cane

An old Indian story says that the game of chess(国际象棋) was invented by Sissa Ben, Prime Minister of King Shirham.As soon as the invention was finished he gave it to the king, who was glad and asked him what he would like to have in ruturn. To the king's surprise, what Sissa wanted seemed very little. "Your Majesty, "said the minister, kneeling in front of the king."I want nothing but some wheat.Please put a grain of wheat on the first square of the chessboard(棋盘), two on the second, four on the third, eight on the fourt…and so on, doubling the number for each following square, give me enough grains to cover the 64 squares of the chessboard."
"You don't ask for much, my honest servant.You might have asked for gold or money, "said the king and then ordered a bag of wheat brought to the palace.
But when the counting began, with one grain for the first square, two for the second, four for the third, and so on, the bag was emptied before the 20th square.More bags were brought, but the number of grain needed for the following squares increased so rapidly that the king soon realized that he was not able to keep his promise even with all the crops in the whole India! In fact, he would have needed 8,466, 744,073, 709, 511, 615 grains, which would be as much as that they would produce in about 2, 000 years!
Now the king found himself deep in debt to his minister. He had either to face the terrible trouble all his life or to cut off Sissa's head, which, it is said, he finally chose.
60.This story tells us_________.
A.how cruel the king was B.how clever the minister was
C.Sissa was a famous mathematician D.how the game of chess came into being
61.According to the story, the game of chess was invented by an________.
A.American Indian B.ancient Indian official
C.Indian king D.Indian officer
62.The king was glad to know that Sissa only wanted some wheat because______.
A.wheat was not expensive B.it didn't seem much
C.Sissa was honest to him D.both A and B
63.A bag of wheat was enough for_________.
A.19 squares B.one third of the squares
C.the first 19 squares D.20 squares
64.The following pictures show a part of the chessboard. Which one can correctly show the way in which Sissa had the grains of wheat put on it?

Michael, a typical(典型的) American, stays home on workdays. He plugs into his personal computer terminal in order to connect with the office. After work, he puts on his headphones, watches a movie on his home videorecorder, or, plays baseball on the computer. On many days, Michael doesn't talk to any other human beings, and he doesn't see any people except the ones on television. Michael is imaginary, but his lifestyle is very possible. The inventions of modern technology seem to be cutting us off from contact With our fellow human beings.
The world of business is one area in which technology is isolating us. Experts say, for example, that many people will soon be able to work at home. With access to a large central computer, employees such as office clerks, insurance agents, and accountants could do their jobs at display terminals in their own homes. They would never have to actually see the people they're dealing with, In addition, the way employees are paid will change. Workers' salaries will be automatically paid into their bank accounts, making paper checks unnecessary. No workers will stand in line to receive their pay or cash their checks Personal banking will change, too. Customers will deal with machines to put in or take out money from their accounts.
Another area that technology is changing is entertainment. Music, for instance, was, once a group experience. People listened to music at concert halls or in small social gatherings. For many people now, however, music is an individual experience. Walking along the street or sitting in their living rooms, they wear headphones to build a wall of music around them. Movie entertainment is changing, too. Movies used to be social events. Now, fewer people are going out to see a movie. Many more are choosing to wait for a film to appear on television or are borrowing videotapes to watch at home. Instead of laughing with others, viewers watch movies in their own living rooms.
69.After work, Michael likes to___________.
A.listen to music at the concert hall B.watch to movie in his living room
C.run a program on his computer in his office D.play baseball with his workmates

A.Michael is a person full of imagination and he can make his dreams come true
B.Michael is not a real person but the lifestyle does exist
C.Michael has ambitions but he can't make his dreams come true
D.Michael is a person full of imagination and his lifestyle is common nowadays
71.What will the author most probably discuss after the last paragraph?
A.Games and sports. B.Personal banking
C.Music and films. D.International business.

One possible version:
How People Spent Their Holidays
The way people spent their holidays changed a great deal from 1993 to 2003.
The table shows that a greater number of people spent their holidays traveling abroad, the rate of which in 2003(22%) doubled that of 1993 (11%). And we are sure the number will increase be-cause more and more people can afford journeys.
The seaside still attracted people. The rate dropped slightly from 38% in 1993 to 31% in 2003. But there might be a further decrease because of pollution. The polluted seaside would certainly drive visitors away.
Things about camping and climbing were almost the same. The rate of that grew by three times.
The reason may be that the beauty of nature is striking people. They are eager to get closer to nature.
