We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn’t even lift her eyes from the book．Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down．While I watched mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold．She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop ．She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, “Very dirty floor．”

    “Yes．I’m glad they’ve finally decided to clean them,” the nurse answered．She looked at Mum strangely and said, “But aren’t you working late?”

    Mum just pushed harder, each swipe of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall．I watched until she was out of sight, and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book．

    After a long time Mum came back．Her eyes were shining, She quickly put the mop back and took my hand．As we turned to go out of the door．Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said, “Thank you．”

    Outside, Mum told me, “Dagmar is fine．No fever．”

    “You saw her, Mum?”

    “Of course．I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow．Dad  will stop worrying as well．It’s a fine hospital．But such floors! A mop is no good．You need a brush．”

1．When she took a mop from the small room what Mum really wanted to do was ___．

     A．to clean the floor                         B．to please the nurse

     C．to see a patient                       D．to surprise the nurse

       B．It has strict rules about visiting hours．

       C．The conditions there can’t be very good．

When I asked my daughter which item she would keep; the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said “the phone”．Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual．Because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology．

     Point 1:  The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic．My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day．If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?

 Point 2:  The mobile phone means that we are never alone．“The mobile saved my life,” says Crystal Johnstone．She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton．Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance（救護(hù)車） to her rescue．

 Point 3:  The mobile removes our secret．It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of the day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last meeting went．

 Point 4:  The telephone separates us．Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window．It was easy to get his number．We were so near——but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks!”

     Point 5:  The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives．Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously （ 同時地） on chat lines （at least my daughter does．I wouldn’t know what to talk about）．We can talk across the world．We can even talk to astronauts （if you know any） while they’re space-walking．And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access（存�。� the Internet, the biggest library on Earth．

1．How do you understand ‘Point 1 —The telephone creates the need to communicate．’？

       A．People don’t communicate without telephone．

       B．People communicate because of the creating of the telephone．

       C．People communicate more since telephone has been created．

       D．People communicate more because of more traffic．

2．It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously through _____．

       A．the TV screen

       B．a(chǎn) fax machine

       C．the phone line hooked up to the computer

       D．a(chǎn) microphone

3．The best headline for the passage is _____．

       A．Phone Power                            B．Kinds of Phone

    C．How to Use Phones                    D．Advantage of Phones

Nuclear power's（核能的） danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be described in one word; radiation（輻射）．

    Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected （探測） by human senses．It can't be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us．There are other things like that．For example, radio waves are all around us but we can't detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver．Similarly, we can't sense radioactivity without a radiation detector．But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things．

    At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright （全部地） by killing masses of cells （細(xì)胞） in important organs （器官）．But even the lowest levels can do serious damage．There is no level of radiation that is completely safe．If the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be significant．This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright．Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones．But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble．They reproduce themselves in an unusual way．They can grow into cancer．Sometimes this does not show up for many years．

   This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation．Serious damage can be done without the knowledge of the person at the time that damage has occurred．A person can be irradiated（放射治療） and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result．Or a child can be born weak or easy to get serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents．

   Radiation can hurt us．We must know the truth．

1．According to the passage, the danger of nuclear power lies in __________．

       A．nuclear mystery                                 B．radiation detection

       C．radiation level                                      D．nuclear radiation

2．Radiation can lead to serious results even at the lowest level ________．

       A．when it kills few cells 

       B．if it damages few cells

       C．though the damaged cells can repair themselves

       D．unless the damaged cells can reproduce themselves

3．Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can _____．

      A．kill large numbers of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediately

      B．damage cells which may grow into cancer years later

       C．a(chǎn)ffect the healthy growth of our younger generation

       D．lead to all of the above results

4．Which of the following can be best inferred from the passage?

      A．The importance of protection from radiation cannot be too overemphasized （過分強(qiáng)調(diào)）．

       B．The mystery about radiation remains unsolved．

       C．Cancer is mainly caused by radiation．

      D．Radiation can hurt those who do not know about its danger．

Some people believe that international sports creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together they will learn to live together．Others say that the opposite is true: that international contests encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred．There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sports encourages international brotherhood．Not only was there the tragic incident involving the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by lesser incidents caused principally by minor national contests．

    One country received its second-place medal with visible indignation after the hockey final．There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions．They were convinced that one of their goal should not have been disallowed and that their opponents’ victory was unfair．Their manager was in a rage when he said: “This wasn’t hockey．Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished．” The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension of the team for at least three years．

The American basketball team announced that they would not yield first place to Russia, after a disputable end to their contest．The game had ended in disturbance．It was thought at first that the United States had won, by a single point, but it was announced that there were three seconds still to play．A Russian player then threw the ball from one end of the court to the other, and another player popped it into the basket．It was the first time the USA had ever lost an Olympic basketball match．An appeal jury debated the matter for four and a half hours before announcing that the result would stand．The American players then voted not to receive the silver medals．

Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game．The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for．But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism．

1．According to the author, the recent Olympic Games have __________．

       A．created goodwill between nations

       B．bred only false national pride

       C．barely showed any international friendship

       D．led to more and more misunderstanding and hatred

2．What would the manager do by saying, “…．Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished”?

     A．His team would no longer take part in international games．

     B．Hockey and the Federation are both ruined by the unfair decisions

     C．There should be no more hockey matches organized by the Federation

     D．The Federation should be dissolved

3．The basketball example implied that_________．

     A．too much patriotism was displayed in the incident

     B．the announcement to prolong the match was wrong

     C．the appeal jury was too hesitant in making the decision

     D．the American team was right in rejecting the silver medals

4．What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?

     A．The organization of the Olympic Games must be improved

     B．Athletes should compete as individuals in the Olympic Games

     C．Sports should be played competitively rather than for the love of the game

     D．International contests are liable for misunderstanding between nations．
