coin dropping. It wasn"t much but, as I turned, my eyes caught the heads of several other people turning too.
A woman had dropped what seemed to be a dime (十美分硬币).
The sound of a coin dropping on the street catches everybody"s attention. Whatever the coin is, no one
ignores (忽视) the sound of it. It got me thinking about sounds again.
There are so many sounds that catch the most attention. People in New York City seldom turn to look
when they hear the siren (警报) of a police car or an ambulance (救护车).
When I"m in New York, I"m a New Yorker. I don"t turn either. I hardly hear a siren there.
At home in my little town in Connecticut, it"s different. The faraway high sound of a police car, an
ambulance or a fire siren brings me to my feet if I"m sitting and brings me to the window if I"m in bed.
It"s the quietest sounds that catch our attention most easily, not the loudest. In the middle of the night, I
can hear water dropping a hundred yards away through three closed doors. I"ve been hearing little creaking
(吱嘎) noises and sounds in the middle of the night for twenty-five years in our house. Why do I never hear
those sounds in the daytime?
B. shout aloud
C. pay attention to it
D. look at each other
B. don"t hear loud noises
C. are interested in sounds
D. don"t care about quiet sounds
B. stays up late at night
C. comes from a little town
D. sleeps next to the window
B. water should be turned off at night
C. the sounds at night make the writer afraid
D. the quietest sounds at night are easily heard

International Space Station (ISS) may soon do so.
NASA (美国航空航天局) said it would use a high-tech machine (高科技机器) to recycle wastewater
at the ISS. The machine will recycle everything from sweat (汗), the water for washing hands, shower water,
water used for brushing teeth, and even urine, to make drinking water.
It will save NASA millions of dollars each year. At present, each ISS astronaut uses about 4.4 liters (升)
of water every day. It costs about $24 million a year to transport water up to ISS. NASA says that a liter of
water costs about $11,000.
The machine will be sent to the ISS in October 2008. NASA hopes it will recycle about 93% of all water
used on the station.
Will the water be clean? Scientists say the wastewater will go through a very complicated process (复杂
的过程). For example, different chemicals will be put in the wastewater; the water will be heated to 130℃ to
get rid of bacteria (细菌). The recycled water is thousands of times better than the water from a city tap,
scientists say.
B. make astronauts at ISS work harder
C. provide better water and food for ISS astronauts
D. save the cost of transporting water up to the ISS
B. 11 thousand
C. 48.4 thousand
D. 24 million
B. heating
C. shaking
D. precipitating (沉淀)
B. the International Space Station
C. a high-tech machine
D. the cost of NASA
B. The high-tech machine will recycle all the water used on the station.
C. At present, each ISS astronaut uses more water than the people living on the earth.
D. The high-tech machine can only recycle urine to make water at present.
people find exam times so bad that they become ill, because they are afraid of failing; they are afraid of
letting their parents and family down. If exams are really making you ill or worried, don"t hide your feelings.
Talk to someone about it. Maybe you can speak to a friend, or someone in your family, or teachers at your
place of study. If one person doesn"t help you, ask someone else.
How to get through exams? Here are some advice:
Ask a teacher or tutor about how to review your lessons, and exam skills-how to work when you are in
an exam.
Take short rests during your time of work. If your mind is tired, it will not remember well.
Plan your work: study at times when you know you will work at your best.
Get enough sleep, and eat healthy food.
You need exercise to work well. Walk, run, play sport-whatever you enjoy.
Stop thinking about the future and failing.
If you feel ill, talk to someone about your worries. But don"t be too relaxed! 4. Some stress over exams
makes you work hard for them.
If it upsets you to talk to your friends about an exam when it is finished, don"t do it! In fact, don"t even
think about the exam you have finished. What is done is done. You cannot change what you have written!
To this advice, we could add:
If you are studying in the evening, don"t go straight to bed. Your mind will still be "going round and round"
-thinking too much. Do something else, maybe walk or get exercise. Choose something that will relax you,
and make you think of other things.

the operating room. This kind of operation is known as robotic operation.
Doctor Marescaux did the operation in an office in New York City last month, while a sixty-eight-year-old
woman patient was in a hospital in Strasbourg, France.
A doctor in Strasbourg got the patient ready. He placed medical tools and a small video camera in her
stomach area. Doctor Marescaux in New York watched the patient on a video screen. Then he used the
computer to send messages to the robot machine. The robot moved the tools that cut the woman"s gallbladder
(胆囊) away. The woman got well soon after the operation and left the hospital two days later.
Experts say the main problem with such a robotic operation is based on high-speed telecommunications
between the doctor and the robot. Technology must be able to send a doctor"s order to a robot to move the
tools quickly.
Experts also say a successful robotic operation will improve an operation. For example, the robot can make
much smaller movements than a person can. A robot machine can turn tools in ways that a doctor"s hand
cannot.
Doctors say such a robotic operation will make possible safer and better operations in the future. They say
it will improve doctor training. It will also mean that doctors could do an operation on people in dangerous
places far away. And it could mean that people could have operations done by top doctors without having to
travel to the city where doctors work.
B. an operation done far away
C. an operation done with the help of a robot
D. something done to mend a robot
B. even a top doctor can"t do the operation himself
C. it can make the operation safer and better
D. operations can be done without any doctors
B. smaller movements
C. doctor training
D. high-speed telecommunications
B. a robot machine
C. a video camera
D. telecommunications
B. Robotic operation has been used in the USA.
C. Experts speak highly of robotic operation.
D. The robot is used to watch the patient clearly.
either the time or the money. The following are the ways of studying.
The best time for reading is morning, because in the morning, the air is fresh and the mind is clear. For
that reason, we can get good result.
(4) In studying we must have patience. If we have not known a text well, we must read it again. We
should not read the next one till we have learned the first one.
(5) When we are studying, we must put our hearts into the book, or we can get nothing from the book
while we are reading.
We must always ask "whys". If it is not well understood, write it down and ask our teachers or our
parents, or friends. In any possible way, we must know it completely and what we"ve learned can be used
well and made better.
Though there are many ways for studying, yet the above mentioned will be quite enough if we can keep
them in heart and do so.

low test grades. I think this school is in need of improvement. The reasons why I believe this school needs
improvement are that children are getting suspended and missing out on class work, students are failing,
and the school is dirty.
The first reason why this school needs improvement is that children are getting suspended and missing
out on class work. Students should not get suspended because it"s like a vacation to them. They will not
change their ways. Instead of putting them out of school for suspension, we should have them in school.
In that way, students can still have good grades.
The second reason why I believe this school needs improvement is that students are failing. If you come
to school every day you shouldn"t fail. I can"t blame it all on the students; it is the teachers" fault also. Some
teachers do not let students in the class. This school needs tutors. If students had tutors their grades could
improve.
The third reason why I believe this school is in need of improvement is that it is dirty. Who wants to walk
into a dirty school every day? I don"t! If students help out, the building will stay clean. There should be no
writing on the walls or eating in the halls. We need to treat our schools like we treat our homes.
These are my reasons why this school needs improvement. If we do these things we can get good grades
have a nice looking school, and students will improve their grades. By doing these things we can also have
the most decent school on the other side of the fiver.
B. praised
C. put in a vacation
D. put out of school
B. Two.
C. Three.
D. Four.
B. Students have no tutors.
C. Students" grades are high.
D. Students" grades are not talked about.
B. He is not satisfied with the school.
C. He is surprised at the school.
D. He is excited at the school.
B. the Most Decent School
C. School Building
D. School Improvement
