.

FROM 1964 to 1978, Dazhai, with a population of 500, was the most famous village in China. Millions of Chinese came to the Shanxi village to visit its terraced fields (梯田) and "splendid" irrigation systems.

It was not until 1978 when Guo Fenglian, head of the village, paid a visit to the US that China's model village found how far it had fallen behind those in developed countries.

"I was astonished at their modern equipment in harvesting, which could even separate big tomatoes with small ones," said Guo. "American farmers' life quality also impressed me a lot. Every day they had two cups of milk, which is something we don't have even in our wildest dreams."

"We have to learn their advanced technology and administration for our own development," said then first Deputy Prime Minister Deng Xiaoping who was planning China's reform and opening up policy then. "Through opening our doors, we would not only take advantage of foreign funds (資金), but also create job opportunities and cultivate (培養(yǎng)) talents."

In 1978 Japanese electricity giant Panasonic (松下) came to China as the first foreign business to invest (投資) here and its success attracted other world brands into exploring the Chinese market. So far China has for 15 years taken in the world's second biggest foreign investment, following the US, to help set the country in a fast growth.

However, China's 30-year road of reform was not always smooth. Doubts on the reform began to rise at the end of the 1980s as many people worried the country would turn to capitalism (資本主義).

"The criterion for our judgment is whether it helps develop socialist productive forces, whether it helps increase the overall national strength of a socialist country, and whether it brings about better living standards," said Deng.

"China's reform and opening up is a unique success story. It has brought benefit to both China and the world," said William Keller, chief manager of a Swiss pharmaceutical (制藥的) company.

53. Guo Fenglian was ______ at the sight of the modern equipment in harvesting when she visited the US in 1978. 

A. shocked       B. delighted       C. excited       D. attracted

54. ______ was the first big country to invest in China. 

A. America  B. Japan   C. Swiss       D. Panasonic

55. Many people have doubts about the reform ________. 

A. in 1978             B. in 1980     

C. in 1981             D. at the end of the 1980s

56. According to remarks by Deng, which one is NOT the criterion for judging the success or failure of our work in various fields?

A. whether it helps develop socialist productive forces.

B. whether it strengthens the overall capacity of the country.

C. whether it brings about better investment and more profit.

D. whether it improves the peoples living standards.

London—coffee protects mice from radiation and could get the same way in humans, according to Indian scientists.

Scientist at India’s Bhabha Atomic Research Center discovered that mice injected with caffeine (咖啡因)remained alive after high doses(劑量)of normally lethal radiation.

Although the study was limited to animals, Kachadillilli George, head of the research team, believes the findings could have implications (something suggested )  for humans .

“It does suggest that coffee might have some beneficial effects in protecting against radiation,” he told New Scientist magazine late last month.

George and his team injected 471 mice with caffeine and left them uncovered to 7.5 grays of gamma radiation(伽瑪射線),enough to kill most mice. But 25 days later 70 percent of the mice that had received 80 milligrams(毫克)of caffeine per kilogram of body weight were still alive.

On the contrary all 196 mice that had been left uncovered to the same radiation but had not been given any caffeine died.

1.George and his team drew the conclusion from    .

A．the magazine       B．their invention      C．the experiment     D．their experience

A．both mice and humans                   B．only mice

C．only humans                           D．neither humans nor mice

A．these mice had been given only 80 milligrams of caffeine

C．these mice were very big and strong

D．these mice hadn’t been given enough caffeine

4.Which is the best title of the article?

A．Human and Mice                        B．New Radiation Defense—Coffee

C．Deadly Radiation—Gamma Radiation         D．Mice Died of Caffeine

Marley is a businessman. His business is freezing people. He works for a company in California called Trans Time. Trans Time freezes people after they die. Why does Trans Time freeze people? Doctors today can cure many diseases, but they cannot cure all diseases. People still get sick and die. Maybe in the future doctors will have medicine for all diseases. Some people think so. They want Trans Time to freeze their bodies after they die. Maybe 100 or 200, or 300 years later, Trans Time doctors will bring the people back to life. The doctors will cure their diseases, and the people will be alive and healthy again.

People often ask the scientists at the Trans Time, “How will Trans Time bring dead people back to life?” They say, “We can freeze a healthy animal and bring it back to life. We think that someday it will be possible with human.” When they say “someday”, they mean years from now — maybe 100 or 200 years. How can Trans Time keep people frozen for 200 years?

After a person dies, workers at Trans Time cool the body with ice and chemicals. When the body is very cold, workers put the body into a capsule (密封艙). They fill the capsule with liquid nitrogen (液氮). The temperature in it is 196 degrees centigrade below zero. Every two weeks workers add more liquid nitrogen. The liquid nitrogen keeps the bodies frozen.

Trans Time charges $21,000 to freeze a body and $59,000 to keep a body frozen. That’s $80,000 all together. It is a lot of money. But some people think that $80,000 is a fair price. It’s a fair price for a chance to live again, isn’t it?

1.What kind of people does Trans Time serve? (No more than 2 words)

                                                                               

2.How much should one pay together, if he wants his body to be cooled and kept by Trans Time?

(No more than 2 words)

                                                                               

3.Why do people want to be frozen? (No more than 9 words)

                                                                               

4.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? (No more than 6 words)
