How can you find out what is going on inside a person's body without opening the patient's body up? Regular X rays can show a lot. CAT scans(扫描仪)can show even more. They can give a complete view of body organs(器官).
What is a CAT scan? CAT stands for a kind of machine. It is a special X-ray machine that gets a 360---degree picture of a small area of a patient's body.
Doctors use X rays to study and determine diseases and injuries within the body. X rays can find a foreign object inside the body or take pictures of some inside organs to be X-rayed.
A CAT scanner, however. uses a group of X rays to give a cross一sectional view of a specific part of the body. A fine group of X rays is scanned across the body and around the patient from many different directions. A computer studies the information from each direction and produces a clear cross-sectional picture on a screen. This picture is then photographed for later use. Several cross sections,taken one after another, can give clear photos of the entire body or of any body organs. The newest CAT scanners can even give clear pictures of active, moving organs, just as a fast-action camera can" stop the action",giving clear pictures of, what appears unclear to the eye. And because of the 360一degree pictures,CAT scans show clear and complete views of organs in a manner that was once only shown during operation or examination of a dead patient.
Frequent appearance before X rays can cause skin burns,cancer or other damage to the body. Yet CAT scans actually don't cause the patient to more radiation(辐射)than regular X rays do. CAT scans can also be done without getting something harmful into the patient, so they are less risky than regular X rays.
CAT scans provide exact, detailed information. They can quickly find such a thing as bleeding inside the brain. They are helping to save lives.
51. What is NOT true of a CAT scan?
A. It is safer than regular X rays.
B. It makes use of computer techniques.
C. It can stop the action of an organ for a short time.
D. It gives clear pictures of active, moving body parts.
52. The underlined words" a foreign object"(Para 3)most probably refer to _____.
A. a badly injured part inside the body
B. a new thing that is unknown to the doctor
C. a strange organ that has grown in the body
D. an object that gets inside the body by chance
53. What is the special use of the latest CAT scanners?
A. It provides clear photos of moving organs.
B. it can take 3-dimension pictures of inside organs.
C. It won't cause serious skin burns, cancer or other damage to the body.
D. It helps to find out what is going on inside a person's body without opening it up.
54. We can infer from this passage that ______.

B. doctors need no opening一up of the body with CAT scanners
C. CAT scanners are more expensive than regular X- ray machines
D. CAT scanners can take photos of either the whole body or a part of it

Ladies and gentlemen,
I’m Li Hua. Today, I’m greatly honored to speak here on behalf of my school. I’m going to talk about the high school education of my city.
From chart 1, we can see high school students are from different family backgrounds. Besides local students, who make up 91%, eight percent of the students are the children of non-local workers. There are even I percent of foreign students.
According to chart 2, the students’ choices after graduation have presented a wider variety. 60%of them intend to go to university. 30% choose to enter vocational schools, and the rest ten percent plan to go abroad for further studies.
①I think, we have more freedom to choose what we would like to do after graduation. Going to college is no longer the only choice for most of us as it was years ago.
②I think, our city government has made more effort to help the non-local workers. For example, their children can enjoy the equal right of a good education with the local city students.
③I think, with the economic development of our city, more foreigners are attracted to set up business and they are happy to send their children to local schools to learn more about China and Chinese cultures.
I believe the future of education in our city is promising
That’s all . Thank you.
