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 can show even more. They can give a complete view of body organs.

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-sectional (横截面) 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 photo-graphed for later use. Several cross sections, taken one after another，can give clear “photos” of the entire body or of any body organs. The latest 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-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 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.

1.The underlined words “a foreign object” in Paragraph 3 most probably refer to　　　　 .

A. a badly injured part inside the body

2.What is the special use of the latest CAT scanners?

B. It provides clear photos of moving organs.

C. It won’t cause serious skin bums, cancer or other damage to the body.

D. It helps to find out illness inside a person’s body without opening it up.

3.What can we infer from this text?

A. Patients in front of CAT may suffer a bit of radiation,

B. Doctors need no opening-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.

4.What can be the best title of this text?

If a person tells you that something is “the real McCoy”，he is telling you it is the real thing，not a copy or replacement．There is nothing false about “the real McCoy”．It is the best that can be found．

There are different ideas on how the expression came into common use．Perhaps the most popular story is about a famous boxer，Charles Kid McCoy，a one-time world famous welter-weigh champion．One day，McCoy was having a drink in a bar with a lady friend．A man came up and began to talk to her．He was not a nice man．

McCoy wanted no trouble．He asked the man to leave．He said．“I'm Kid McCoy．”McCoy thought his name was so well-known that he didn’t need to say more．But the man did not believe him．“Oh，yeah?” he said．“Well，if you are Kid McCoy，then I am George Washington!” And he continued to speak to the prize-fighter’s friend in all unpleasant way．

McCoy hit the man with a fist－not hard－actually it was really a light touch．But the man fell to the ground，unconscious．Ten minutes later，when he came to sense，he called out. “That was the real McCoy!” And so，as told by kid McCoy，that was how the expression “the real McCoy” got started．

There are other versions，however．One is that the expression goes back to the days of prohibition（禁止）when it was illegal in the United States to sell whiskey．Although whiskey was against the law，many sold it．And many sold bad whiskey．They were not afraid to do so，because there was so little that anybody could do about it．Buying whiskey，good or had，was as illegal as selling it．

But there was one whiskey dealer who was honest．His name was McCoy．He refused to sell bad whiskey．He sold  only the best imported whiskey．His product became recognized as the best．It was called “the real McCoy”．

The expression survived prohibition days and soon became a general term．One way or another，no matter how the expression began，“the real McCoy” is an expression that everyone understands．It means the one and only—the best one．They are indeed words of special praise．

1.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?

A．It is about the exact meaning of the version．

B．It tells how a person gets his name．

C．It shows how to tell the real from the false．

D．It explains how to find the best．

2.In the third paragraph，“the prize-fighter” refers to______．

A．a champion                   B．George Washington

C．a fellow                     D．McCoy

3.Which of the following is TRUE about the days prohibition?

A．A national law forbade the sale of alcoholic drinks．

B．Bad whiskey was not allowed to sell．

C．People at that time preferred nothing but whiskey．

D．The days of prohibition resulted in MeCoy’s selling wine．

4.What is the main idea of the whole passage?

A．The story of a famous boxer．

B．The general use of the version．

C．The expression and its story．

D．The friendship between an athlete and a seller．

Honesty varies. First there’s self-honesty. Is what people see the real article or do you appear through smoke and mirrors? I find that if I try to be something I’m not, I feel unsure of myself and take out a part from my PBA(personal bank account). I love how singer Judy Garland put it, “Always be a first-class version(版本) of yourself, instead of a second-class version of somebody else.”

Then there’s honesty in our actions. Are you honest at school, with your parents, and with your boss? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have, try being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel. Remember, you can’t do wrong and feel right. This story by Jeff is a good example of that:

In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn’t do well. I was really good at it. I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass. I’d write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off.

At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job. I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us. After a while I realized I shouldn’t do that anymore, because I wasn’t really helping them. They weren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder down the road. Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me.

It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work. But, remember, every act of honesty is a deposit into your PBA and will build strength.

1.The underlined part “appear through smoke and mirrors” in the first paragraph means ''________''.

A. to be honest　　 B. to be clear

C. to be creative　　 D. to be unreal

2.Which of the following can best explain Judy Garland’s words?

A. Don’t copy others or you can’t be the first class.

B. Be your true self rather than follow others.

C. Make efforts to be the first instead of the second.

D. Don’t learn from others unless they’re excellent.

3.What does the author expect to show by Jeff’s story?

A. Honesty can be of great help.

B. A bad thing can be turned into a good one.

C. Helping others cheat can do good to nobody but yourself.

D. One should realize the wrong in his bad deeds.

4.In the last paragraph the author mainly wants to express ________.

A. one must be brave to be honest

B. it’s difficult to be honest when others are not

C. one should be honest when making a deposit

D. honesty in one’s actions can help him in the future

When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.

People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else seems ­­blurry. Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near-sighted. People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.

Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.

Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object’s relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distances as people with two eyes.

1.We should take good care of our eyes　　 .

A.only when we can see well

B.only when we cannot see perfectly

C.even if we can see well

D.only when we realize how important our eyes are

2.The underlined word blurry in the second paragraph probably means　　 .

A.obvious B.possible C.clear D.unclear

3.Having two eyes instead of one is particularly useful for　　 .

A.seeing at night

B.seeing objects far away

C.looking over a wide area

D.judging distances

4.People who suffer from astigmatism have　　 .

A.one eye bigger than the other

B.eyes that are not exactly the right shape

C.a difficulty that can be corrected by an operation

D.an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glasses
