25、tles lost and won, kings or rulers overthrown (推翻) or killedtook months and even years to travel from one country to another. The news passed by word of mouth and was never accurate. Today we can read in our newspapers of important events that occur in far away countries on the same day they happen.
26、 Apart from supplying news from all over the world, newspapers give us a lot of other useful information.

31、 Florida, and so on; but first, of course, you will want to see New York. It is not the capital city of the United States (that is Washington, D. C. , where the President lives) or even the capital city of New York State (that is Albany) , but many people call it the greatest city on earth. “ The fi
32、ve parts, or boroughs, of New York City are Manhattan, Queen, Bronz, Richmond and Brooklyn. Although Manhattan is not all of New York, it is the heart of the city. It is an island, which is only about 13 miles long and 2 miles wide. From the air its shape looks like a long finger, and from the sea i
33、ts just like the picture we all know. Those tall, straight buildingsthe skyscraperspacked so close together on that island of rocks are sometimes seen in the distance through a veil of early morning mist.

Later he used sharp bones or horns, metal knives and more recently, rubber and plastic. In the 1960s a new tool w
37、as developed, one which was, first of all, to be of great practical use to the armed forces and industry, but which was also to revolutionize the art and science of surgery. The tool is the laser and it is being used by more and more surgeons all over the world. As we all know, light is hot, and any
38、 source of light will give warmth. But light is usually spread out over a wide area. The light in a laser beam, however, is concentrated. This means that a light with no more power than that produced by an ordinary electric light bulb becomes intensely strong as it is concentrated to a pinpoint-size
39、d beam. Experiments with these pinpoint beams showed researchers that different energy sources produce beams that have a particular effect on certain living cells. It is now possible for eye surgeons to operate on the back of human eye without harming the front of the eye, simply by passing a laser
40、beam right through the eye-ball. Operations which once left patients exhausted and in need of long period of recovery time now leave them feeling relaxed and comfortable. The rapid development of laser techniques in the past ten years has made it clear that the future is likely to be very exciting.

43、.The reason why the laser beam is very strong is that_.(分数:2.00)A.it is artificially illuminatedB.it is made up of a concentrated beam of lightC.it sends out heat in all directionsD.its heat is increased by the heat of the sun(4).After the use of the laser beam, surgeons can perform operations which
44、_.(分数:2.00)A.leave their patients with negative effectsB.can treat only human eye diseasesC.do little damage to their patientsD.make their patients need a long time to recover8.补全文章_Everyone needs a break, and vacations are not meant for serious study. 1 The Spring Festival is coming up so this is t

Before getting into the recommendations, you need to determine your English reading comprehension level. If youre at the beginners level, there are two options: reading a children s book or reading a b
