It's eleven o'clock，and Mr. Sims has just asked the class to pay attention for the fiftieth time while he explained a math problem. Carson Webster is sitting over by the window trying to listen to the teacher, but his mind is not on the problem Mr. Sims is discussing. Carson's mind is on a little mouse named Millie that is busily moving around in his pocket. Millie is not very happy. At breakfast, she had climbed into Carson's pocket and gone to sleep while Carson ate two pieces of bread and read the newspaper. Carson had forgotten Millie was there until he has halfway in class. Now that Millie's morning sleep was over, she was ready to exercise. Lucky for Carson. Millie was in a pocket with a button, or he might be in serious trouble.
“Carson?" Mr. Sims, who was usually rather strict with his students，was suddenly looking at Carson with his eyes wide open, rolling his stick in his hand. Carson had to pay attention.
“Could you please repeat the question?" said Carson，feeling his pocket.
"I asked if you would agree with the statement,” said Mr. Sims pleasantly.
" Well，I'm not really attentive at the moment,”said Carson. "I think I would need to give it more consideration.”Carson did not have the slightest idea as to what Mr. Sims was talking about.
“I see,” said Mr. Sims seriously, “Then I guess you're uncertain about whether the` product of zero by any other number is always zero?"
" Oh，I know that,” said Carson, who could feel himself turning red as a couple of kids including Bob began to laugh. He knew his punishment would come soon. To his surprise, however. the teacher didn't seem angry.
“I’m so glad,” said Mr. Sim, turning back to the blackboard. “Oh, and by the way, Carson,” he continued, “ I think a cage would be a healthier place for your little friend. Would you agree with that statement” Just at that time, Millie let out a weak but clear cry and stuck her heard out of Carson’s pocket.
" Yes.”Carson said with a smile.“I would totally agree with statement！

The man who brings my milk used to knock for his money for the week's milk while I was eating breakfast on Saturday morning. Just lately he has been arriving before I get up. Workforce shortages mean that four men are sharing five rounds, so he has to start earlier.
Delivering milk to people's homes is hardly good business，especially when the customer may have a choice of two or three firms serving a single road. In spite of my local difficulties，however, labor troubles are not as great as a few years ago. There are enough men prepared to make an early morning start for the sake of an open-air job with a fair measure of freedom. If they did stop calling, women would find it hard work to collect all the milk they need from self-service stores. Dairies know that stopping deliveries in the United States resulted in falling sales.
Marketing ideas have included introducing extra lines, in addition to dairy products, which the milkmen can carry to increase business. One dairyman said. “It won't be long before the milkman deliveries more bread than milk. Some milkmen deliver potatoes, and it seems as though variety will be limited only by the size of the trucks.
So the milkman is likely to remain a familiar figure, and the dairy products he sells are unlikely to change very much in his decade. Flavored milk is popular on the Continent. In Britain those who like it buy plain milk and add their own flavoring. Even the returnable bottle continues to be used. As long as it has a reasonable life一30 to40 trips are usual一the cost of collection and cleaning is worthwhile.
59. The milkmen now start earlier on their delivery rounds than before because _____.
A. there is an increasing demand for milk delivery
B. they hope to reach the customers’ home in time
C. they have to collect the money for the week's milk house to house
D. dairies are short of deliverymen and the companies worry about falling sales
60. Why are there enough men prepared to make an early morning start?
A. Because they can enjoy a certain amount of freedom in the fresh air.
B. Because they like working outdoors and breathe the air freely.
C. Because they can enjoy a great amount of freedom outdoors.
D. Because they like walking freely in the fresh air.
61. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. One of the marketing ideas is variety.
B. The milkman now delivers more bread than milk.
C. Milkmen have taken over many rounds given up by bakeries.
D. Some milkmen deliver potatoes in addition to dairy products.
62. According to the passage，in this decade ______ ．
A. milkmen will disappear very soon.
B. flavored milk will become popular in Britain.
C. people will buy milk from self-service stores
D. there will be little change in the dairy business
63. It can be inferred from the passage that _____．
A. the British people seldom buy plain milk.
B. the returnable bottles are no longer used
C. collection and cleaning of the returnable bottles cost nothing
D. the returnable bottles won't be thrown away until they are used dozens of times

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.
64. 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.
65. The underlined words" a foreign object"（Para 3）most probably refer to _____．
A. a badly injured part inside the body

C. a strange organ that has grown in the body
D. an object that gets inside the body by chance
66. 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.

A. patients in front of CAT may suffer form a bit of radiation
B. doctors need no opening一up of the body with CAT scanners
C. CAT scanners are more expensive than regular X- ray machines

C. How to Avoid the Damage of X Rays
D. Advantages and Disadvantages of CAT Scanners

It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams，the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage，but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter altogether.
Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand，a little politeness goes along way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and calm. so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behaviors of politeness are by no means enough. Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may be not able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to. It always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies.
An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join it traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers can't even learn to drive, let alone master the roadmanship. Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road users. it is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.
69. According to the passage，troubles on the road are often caused by _____．
A. road conditions
B. the speed of modern life
C. the behavior of the drivers
D. the large number of cars
70. In the writer's opinion，_____．
A. drivers should avoid traffic jams
B. strict traffic rules are badly needed
C. unskillful drivers should be punished
D. drivers should show road politeness properly
71. The underlined word “give-and-take” means _____in the passage.
A. politeness and impoliteness
B. good manners and bad manners
C. offering help to others as much as possible
D. willingness of each person to give in to each other's wishes
72. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Road Politeness
B. Traffic Problems
C. Bad Manners on the Road
D. Good Drivers and Bad Drivers

A new idea called "business at the speed of thought" is quite popular in our business world. It makes quick marketing progress, but it also presents a terrible dangerous way to run a company. Here're the main points：The businesses today that will succeed are those able to jump around in high spirits. Chances must be seized immediately and decisions made quickly. Everyone needs more immediate answers, and the window of expected response to any questions has dropped from weeks to days even to hours.
The problem with this way of thinking is that too often such quickness comes at the expense of properly understanding the details of a situation. Sure，the networked society allows us to gather information within a short time, but does it really speed up our ability to make better decisions? How do you balance the need for speed with sharp and correct thinking? That's the puzzler on the minds of a lot of –people these days，including Future Shock author, Alvin Toffler, who studies the idea in our cover story. It's also a subject of a new study by Kepner Tregoe. It reports that 77 percent of managers believe that during the past three years the number of decisions they made each workday has increased. But 85 percent of those same people say the time given to making those decisions has either decreased or stayed the same. Result：Speed kills. Different opinions are not shared. Other choices are dismissed too easily. Aims never seem to be clear. On the contrary，good records aren't kept about how successful decisions are made. If your company really does well，the Kepner report suggests taking apart the decision-making process and figuring out what you did right. Study your successes, as well as your failures. Fast decision-making is a necessity sometimes ----- no question about that. But decisions are only as good as the brains that go into them. By that measure, many of today's decisions are weak and could cut some companies off at the knees. Business may be keeping the quickness of thought, but it's going to be torn to pieces if managers are not thinking with great care and patience.
