8.Maybe you have seen this in schools:some students are studying nearly air the time but they just pass their exams,while some others may spend much less time on their books but do much better ill exams.How could this happen?People used to think that hard work is the only way to success,but now they have understood that smart work can make them succeed,too.
     Hard workers don't mind working for long hours,while smart workers always think of several  different  answers to these questions,"Why should I suffer( 遭受…苦 ) this?""Isn't there a better way to do this?".Thanks to these people,we can use computers instead of the abacus now.Progressing in every field(領(lǐng)域) is tile direct result of"try to find a better way"by smart workers.
   There was a large soap factory in Japan.Once it received an unusual letter from someone who complained that there was no soap ill the soapbox he bought.
   How could empty soapboxes go out of file factory?The engineers checked the producing and packing.The producing was fine,but in about one in ten thousand cases( 情況 ),tile packing machine let an empty soapbox go.There was no need to spend a lot of money repairing tile machine for such a small problem.The engineer soon worked out a solution,he put a huge X-ray machine and two large computers to find out the empty soapboxes.After teaching the workers how to use it,he sat down in his seat,exhausted.
"Sir,we could have solved the problems in a much simpler and cheaper way,"a worker said.
"Really?How?"
"We can put a huge fan near the packing machine.The wind coming from the fan will blow away the empty boxes,leaving the other boxes with soap".
    See,this is smart work.In order to succeed,we should not only work hard like the engineer,but also think smart like this worker.

3.Several Asian hospitals are doing experiments with tele-medicine.Tele-medicine is a technology that allows doctors  to see patients without them being in the same place.This is made possible through high-speed communication networks(網(wǎng)絡(luò)).At both ends of the line,the way of video-meeting lets them see and talk to each other.Blood pressure(血壓) and body temperature are directly shown on computes.
Tele-medicine is already in wide use in some places such as the United States and Germany.Among other uses,village doctors hold consultation(會(huì)診) with far-away expert(專家).The experts can also help them during operations.
Tele-medicine has been slow to reach Asia because of high costs,besides other reasons.When things improve,this technology will develop very fast..Chinese University of Hong Kong's medical school has joined a big hospital in Beijing,and Thailand is building a Tele-medicine station connecting 20areas.
Tele-medicine will do good to patients because doctors from different places can see them and give their medical advice.The help is quite important if the disease is an unusual one.It also helps spread medical knowledge among experts.
As tele-medicine develop well,its costs will be lower and it will become very popular in the medical field.

76題判斷正誤("T"表示正確,"F"表示錯(cuò)誤);77題完成句子;78~79題簡(jiǎn)略回答問(wèn)題;80題將文中劃線句子譯成漢語(yǔ).

77.Tele-medicine allowsdoctors to see patients without them being in the same place.
78.Why does tele-medicine develop slowly in Asia besides other reasons?Because of high costs.
79.What is Thailand doing according to the passage?Thailand is building a tele-medicine station connecting 20 areas.

4.Bionic man appears in America
The term"bionic man"came from The Six Million Dollar Man which was a popular TV show in the U.S.A.in the 1970s.It was a story about a former astronaut whose body was rebuilt by using artificial (人造的) parts after he nearly died.Now,a team of engineers has made a robot by using artificial organs(器官),limbs and other body parts that comes close to a true"bionic man".
The parts come from 17manufacturers (制造商) around the world."This is the first time they've been assembled (組裝) together,"says Richard Walker,the director of a robot company."It's an attempt to show the development of medical science,"he says.
Walker says the robot has about 60to 70percent of the function(功能) of a human.It stands six-and-a half feet tall and can step,sit and stand with the help of a walking machine.This kind of machine is used by people who have lost the ability to walk.It also has a functioning heart that beats and circulates artificial blood(血液).Its blood carries oxygen just like human blood.
Although the parts are used in the robot work,there is a long way to go.There are some key parts missing.There's no liver,skin or brain for the robot.
64.The robot"bionic man"is used toB.
A.show the development of medical science

Sixteen countries are part of the program:the US,Russia,Canada,Japan,Brazil and 11European countries.China isn't an ISS country,but it has helped with some of the experiments.In 2003,China sent some rice up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it.
