Lilleheis techniqu
20、es for the first time allowed the patient to be operated on while blood was supplied to the patient from a donor. Today “open heart“ surgery ,using more complicated methods and bionic devices, is common in the United States. Important technological advances such as those already mentioned have encou
21、raged scientists to develop the artificial heart. Early in 1983,in its first use by a human patient, a medical team at the University of Utah Medical Center replaced the diseased heart by a Jarvik-7. The world watched amazed as television pictures of Dr. Clark showed him as he improved steadily afte
22、r the surgery. His continued life demonstrated that a bionic device could imitate the action and function of a healthy heart. Dr. Clark lived for 112 days. Life-like or bionic machines have existed for several centuries. The development of tools by man s ancestors is a good example of the applicatio
23、n of bionics to extend human capabilities. Modern bionic research is especially involved in prosthetics devices that substitute for, or replace lost or diseased body parts such as arms ,legs ,and eyes. Recent advances in electronics have enabled scientists to make better use of electrical impulses i
24、n the control of prosthetic devices. One interesting research project is the development of an artificial eye in which video signals are transformed into light patterns that are sent into nerve receptors in the patient. The future for applied bionics seems to be promising. Existing bionic devices wi
25、ll become smaller, faster, and more effective. The artificial heart used for Dr. Clark is only one of experimental replacement devices. It is likely to be joined in the future by replacements for other internal systems or organs. Bionic livers, stomachs, and lungs are not impossibilities! （分数：1.00）(
26、1).Which of the following does this passage mainly discuss?（分数：0.20）A.The application of bionics.B.The first “open heart“ surgery.C.The development of the artificial heart.D.The future of applied bionics.(2).According to the passage, it was Dr. W. Lillehei that _.（分数：0.20）A.first developed applied b
27、ionicsB.was the first to operate on the heart of a patientC.developed the artificial heartD.used more sophisticated methods to do “open heart“ surgery(3).By “Dr. Clark lived for 112 days“ ,the author most probably means that _.（分数：0.20）A.the replacement of Dr. Clark s heart was a failureB.there was
28、still a long way to go in applied bionicsC.applied bionics was promisingD.the first artificial heart was most effective(4).The control of artificial devices is improving because _.（分数：0.20）A.video signals can be transformed into light patternsB.bionic machines have existed for centuriesC.artificial
29、devices such as arms, legs and eyes require better control than bionic machinesD.science has made great advances in electronics(5).The author s attitude towards applied bionics is _.（分数：0.20）A.criticalB.approvingC.objectiveD.questioningThe United States Congress is a bicameral legislature. Two House
30、s-Senate and House of Representatives make the laws. Before a bill may be sent to the President to sign, both houses must approve. When great agreement exists on a bill, the law moves quickly. However, most suggested laws are complex and relate to interests and conflicts which need debate and carefu
31、l consideration. Both houses of Congress use the committee system to handle the numerous bills. A bill is referred to the committee responsible for that category whether taxation, foreign affairs, housing or whatever. In the committee the bill is studied, arguments are collected for and against, and
32、 advice is gathered from experts on the subject. Citizens have the chance to influence legislation through the committee system. If the committee votes favorably, the bill goes before the entire house. Usually committee approval means favorable action by the Senate and House of Representatives. As a
33、 result, membership on the more important committees is eagerly sought. How long a senator or representative has served in Congress is most important in assigning committee memberships Usually the majority political party receives a majority of the memberships of each committee. In this way the part
34、y controls decisions because the real work and power of Congress lies in the system of committees. Some people protest that this system restricts laws, but most see this as the system that works best. （分数：1.00）(1).By using the context and word part clues, we may conclude that “bicameral“ means _.（分数
35、：0.20）A.Republicans and DemocratsB.two HousesC.congressional systemD.law making procedure(2).Committee memberships are assigned mainly according to ones_.（分数：0.20）A.personal preferenceB.length of serviceC.life experienceD.family background(3).The committee system serves best to_.（分数：0.20）A.keep the
36、congressmen busyB.allow citizens to know the congressmenC.examine and discuss the bills presented to the full houseD.give equal power to Democrats and Republicans(4).Usually a law will be considered made with the approval of_.（分数：0.20）A.the presidentB.two housesC.the concerned committeeD.the majorit
37、y political party(5).The author of this passage seems to_（分数：0.20）A.be interested in the committee systemB.favor the committee systemC.be indifferent to the committee systemD.oppose the committee systemThere was one thing I found rather strange on my first day at Monks House. The bathroom was direct
38、ly above the kitchen and when Mrs. Crane was bathing before breakfast. I could, through the thin floor, hear her whispering to herself, asking questions and giving herself the answers. When Mr. Crane saw that I looked so surprised he told me that Mrs. Crane always said the sentences out loud that sh
39、e had written at night. She wanted to know if they sounded right and the bath was a good place for trying them out. Every morning, when we carried the breakfast trays to Mrs. Cranes room I noticed that she had always been working during the night. There were pencils and paper beside her bed so that
40、when she woke up she could work, and sometimes it seemed as if she had got very little sleep. Mrs. Cranes bedroom was outside the house in the garden; I used to think how inconvenient it must be to have to go out in the rain to go to bed. Her bedroom had been added on to the back of the house; the d
41、oor faced the garden and a window at the side opened out to a field. I remember that cow came one night and put its head in through the window. It amused Mrs. Crane very much, but in case it happened again Mr. Crane bought the field adding part of it to the garden. Because the writing room was small
42、, he had a larger one built for her at the end of the garden against the church wall. She was tall and thin and very graceful. She had large, deep-set eyes and a wide curving mouth I think perhaps it was this that made her face seem particularly beautiful. Mrs. Crane wore clothes that suited her wel
43、l. She was not capable of sewing, although sometimes she liked to try. There was one thing in the kitchen that Mrs. Crane carried it out. She returned two or three times a morning, work at it.
